Final Fantasy: Record Keeper 2016 Advancilate Twins

What gets me is people saying BE doesn't feel like an FF while praising this, when the reality is BE actually tries to tell a story. All this has going for it are some old school character sprites where eventually you just wind up with clones from each realm because synergy. Nevermind the actual BS with the combat system.

I'm one of those people, so I'll comment.

FFRK feels more like FF not because of the story (obviously - it has none), but overall; the Characters are FF, most of them are lifted directly from there previous games sprite-sheets, they don't feel out of place even though they've reduce to 16-bit sprites, they have not been redrawn to fit a non-FF theme. The music is lifted directly from previous FFs. The abilities and magic are (mostly) from previous games. The strategies fit the FF theme (use boss weakness, or some other hokey~interesting tactic etc.) the SBs are themed to each character (with a few odd exceptions). The UI is FF (although painfully slow).

FF:BE; It's a 'Brave'-game, with FF characters popped in (so randomly in-fact, that when you pull them from their crystals they have no idea why they are even there - and most of the time I shared that same sentiment - does the story explain this? I'm only at the 2nd continent). The battle system is 'brave', the characters sprites and animations are 'brave' (expect the monsters oddly - this is also odd since Yoshitka Amano drew them, and they're still more brave than FF), the UI is 'brave', the story is 'brave', the music is 'brave' (Noriyasu Agematsu). None of this a bad thing - but you're fooling yourself if you think this is more FF than brave.

FF:Mobius - (after about 3hrs - so this may be way off) feels like a modern FF (unfortunately), with it's angsty 'whatever' main character, annoying girly-voiced moogle (why cant they bring back cool-moogle from FFIII/VI?), an interesting combat system that feels very XIII inspired, and a card system that I hope I have not figured out yet. The music is FF. The UI is FF. The graphics have that annoying EARLY physically-based-material feel that FFXIV has, that tries really hard to look real, but doesn't (I don't know how to explain it) it ends up looking 'flatish' and kinda washed out - maybe they did this on purpose to make it feel like FFXIV? but overall you can tell it's a FF game.

so the FFRKcentral is nice to make PT, just sad you have to manually sync

Why the Ice Damage boost sword for Bartz when you aren't using ice attacks and have his Burst weapon?

[Ratatapa]

Because it's ++ and afaik his burst weapon have no bonus so the icesword + is stronger then his burst sword

[Kirin]

I wouldnt have thought a + generic 5* would be stronger than a burst weapon. Dang.

[Ratatapa]

yeha it's like 222 vs 216

Well I figured out after looking at Reddit and what links I have access to that I can continue posting event info like normal without KBP, the only problem is the info will be delayed until after the event deploys since i'll be getting most of it from Reddit.

I think Reddit has the Megathreads a couple days before the actual event starts.

I think he's talking about AI thread, but yeah

[Robertfb]

Yep and I usually don't see that info appear till the day or the day after the event comes out, the relic writeup is the one thats usually out beforehand, as well as basic changes.

Whats this healing soul break banner?

[Robertfb]

O.o the W-Burst healing SB banner got dropped on us, neat. Time to dump all my mythril into it since I still don't have any Medica SBs besides Ramza's Tailwind.

[Robertfb]

Whats this healing soul break banner?

Its the Double Burst healing only SB banner, I guess they decided to drop it early.

[Ratatapa]

100 gems 4* and 15 pull 3*

done with it

[hyoton]

Weird. Think it's worth it? I haven't been keeping up on healing BSBs.

[Alkar]

Yeah this banner was part of the celebration... not sure why it was dropped now lol. Only lasts one day too... not enough time to get 50 mythrils Guess I'll dump everything I've got and hope for the best. Good luck guys!

These are all SSBs. If you have none of the Curaga medicas try to pull.

@alkar, banner says available thru 8/15 so should be plenty of time to save up
