I played through Final Fantasy VI and now am quickly becoming addicted to JRPGs. Help
Dunno if any of them will live up to VI, though. It was such a fucking treat from beginning to end. Great characters with a lot of heart, and, well, character. Those fifty hours (though I think a decent chunk of those may have been from leaving the game on overnight) went by way too fast. So fast in fact that I've already started a second play-through. I can't remember the last time I did that. Amazing game, would probably land somewhere in my top ten if ever bothered to make such a list.
Now I'm playing VII and V simultaneously (mostly VII because emulators are so awkward for me) and it's a lot better than I remember. Definitely lives up to the hype, but I much prefer the variety in the combat of VI. Those pre-rendered backgrounds and cutscenes are top-notch, however.
Dunno where to go next. Wasn't really feeling V, apart from the cool Jobs system, so I might go for one of the fan favourites (IV or IX). Help me waste my time, FF nerds!
