But its all the same gameplay though?
|
Actually, no.
|
FF8's story was alot like FF7's if you pay attention...

All JRPGS = crap, with the exception of Mario RPGs

Well, since I don't seem to think so, it isn't.

Hero joins group in order to try to stop domestic evil. Later he meets heroine and falls in love with her. Later he discovers that the domestic evil isn't the evil overlord, and the evil overlord has a connection to either the hero or his love interest. Hero gains band of followers, gives chase to evil overlord to stop generic doomsday play and chases evil overlord to their lair to have a final battle.
Is that really the best you can do, really? |
No, that's basically the layout of most FFs, including the odd deus ex machina. I'm not hating, mind you, I'm just pointing out that one plot could be successful, they'd use elements for it in another one of their games.
|
That's far trancended any plot or cliche, that's a pretty solid story structure there.
And the worth of any story is in the details. |
Final Fantasy XIII was alright but I couldn't get over how linear it felt. Don't get me wrong, there is alot to do around areas but I just liked the freedom of the older ones. I didn't really like the "free roam" area much but I did everything there.
After completing the game fully, I didn't see any point of replaying through it, which to me is unlike any other Final Fantasy game really. Basically it's an okay game, I just can't see why I would want to replay it (except maybe changing roles drastically but it does force you alot of the time to use set ones). or maybe i have final fantasy 10 syndrome |
I was too pissed that after 90 hours of running down a hallway, I still wasn't powerful enough to beat the final boss. I will never pick it back. I will never beat it. It can suck my dick.

thats why 8 wasnt that great |

|
Most emotional video game scene ever, fuck you haters. |
no you dont get it i loved number eight it was just that it was like the exact same as number seven
|
I suppose X was like VII and VIII? Y'know, the whole airship, evil guy, eviler guy, chase them down, kill them, game over?
|
They all had a guy called Cid!
|
Fuck, Cid was just that fucking awesome he needed an appearance in every FF game.
|
Yeah sid was epic
|
|
lol wtf
|
I know, powerful stuff.
|
LOL.
|
Hey guys by the way im getting golden membership soon and ill post it when i do
my gamertag is going to be "GravityHamerGuy" so you can add me if you want cheers |
With a name like that, do you spam the Grav Hammer all the damn time?
|
Lol no but i had to change it because the gamertag stuffed up so im making new one
|
I spam the shotgun, waiting inside a drop shield for the entire match. It's super effective.
|
I think spamming the grav hammer was the only part of Halo I enjoyed.
|
yeah it was cool
|
No, it wasn't. It was a big ugly thing.
Now it's a not-as-big ugly thing. |
Forget what I said about hating all RPGs. I've just played Earthbound 2 and its fantastic.
|
FF7: 9
FF8: 10 FF9: 7 FF10: 8 FF12: 9 FF13: Crap |
:
XIII was good up until Oerba. X was fucking awesome. |
You went a bit mad with XII's score I think, although, you got it spot on with XIII.
|
IX was way better than X.
As was X-2. Feed me with your haaaaate |
It's weird having only three party members for the whole game.
|
Dammit... he edited.
EDIT: Sometimes you only have one O.o |
