FFIX owned, FFVII was awesome, FFVIII was good, FFX was nice, FFX-2.... is not an FF. FFXI is too addictive, which I'm sure we can all testament to![]()
I liked 9 more then 8, trance system was pretty annoying but at least the characters were more interesting, the story was also better imo cause ultimacia is the shittiest vilian to ever grace a FF. 8 Was like the only FF that I felt had no sense of impending danger (that compelled you to do or see this or the shit might blow up)
Junctioning, while it was a decent system made magic that you junctioned pretty redundant, and if you don't have 99 of the magic you junctioned then it's pointless, lvling up was stupid and the characters didn't have much flair to them. =\
Ya FFIX's only real setback is the trance system, it sucks. But other than that I think it's brill.
I hated the junctioning system in 8, I would never, ever use magic because of it and it was just weird. Lvling up was a fucking joke, 1k exp per lvl all the way to lv 100?I was lv100 with Squall before the end of disc 2, storyline was nice and all but not as involving as other games.
I remember the first time I played it (long time ago) and I junctioned Curaga to my HP LOL. Everytime I used it my HP would go down and I didn't know why XD
I don't see how you could even think about comparing junctioning and materia, for one thing materia doesn't directly affect stats (less i'm forgetting something), secondly, materia has combination effects that junctioning can only dream of. Also you didn't need to draw magic, even though it was a lot faster to get 99 of a magic (and never use it again, which is another thing materia has on it) then to lvl up a materia to lvl 4-5.
The GF system had something closer to materia, but not on such a large scale as 7 since the command list REALLY limits you, if you could have more commands then it would've been better.
Aura ftw, use it and tab tab tab tab tab tab Limit Break tab tab tab tab tab tab....
How to lvl up in FF8.
Play a ton of triple triad in balumb gardens at the start of the game (when no special rules are in place). Get a ton of the lower lvl cards and get a whole crap load of magic and abilities. Jack up all your stats. Fight as little as possible until you get the no-encounter ability and then use it and never fight another normal battle again.
FFT was awesome
I liked some things about FF8, but the story bored me so quick, I found it harder and harder to keep playing. FF6 and 7 are my favorites, and sadly I never finished FF9. I did enjoy it but ya.... I let some one borrow it and never got to finish it.
I liked FFVIII, i pretended Rinoa was a really effeminate dude, and that game was awesome :D and the cutscenes were great, but i dont remember much of the game lol
I refused to play FFIX because i hated the ppl with the tiny bodies and the huge heads...i wanted to take a big rock and squash them RAWR lol (but oddly, i play a taru in FFXI and i love it lol)
"we've know each other since forever but all just happen to have amnesia" was the most ridiculously unbearable plot device in RPG history, aside from that it was alright.Originally Posted by Lordwafik
the story in FFVIII is a really good one, however the battle system sucked because you just spammed Guardian Forces the whole time during a fight.Originally Posted by layoneil
Triple Traid was the highlight of 8. Every so often, I go turn the game on just to play it XD
Well it's not like you know this right off the bat, you find it out near the end of the game, also the whole laguna thing, taking you back in time untill the present, untill the stories interlace, and that girl who keeps sending you back, the battle sequence between the 2 gardens, etc, I loved it all.Originally Posted by layoneil
Laguna thing was pretty cool and the music was awesome when you got into a fight. GF summoning was good too, but I liked 9's summon sequences a lot more. Diabolos has a hot summon in 8Originally Posted by Lordwafik

yay for a sense of humour?
It explains in FF8 that using GFs eats away at your memory, so you kinda are told at the beginning of the game lol
What are you fags smoking? FF9 WAS FUCKING GREAT!!!![]()
FF8 was pretty shitty, the best thing about it was probably the soundtrack.
FF7...I'm still on the first disc I think lol :/
