I have a bad feeling about this...

Hope I'm wrong.

 

[DW74]

I could never get into this one because I couldn't find any of the main characters appealing in any way.

My thoughts exactly. I actually thought Zidane was annoying.

But I was 26 when it came out, so I don't have childhood nostalgia overpowering me.

 

[KalimPlays]

This was the last truly great Final Fantasy. The series never hit the same highs again after the Gooch left.

 

[Garnox]

Like others have said, I played Moguri Mod and that's the definitive way to play classic FF9.

Now the Memoria Project is something you can set your watch to. If they pull this off, I'm on board.

 

[Lethal01]

Well, after the FF7 "Remake", I don't know if I want Square to touch any older FF anymore.

True, since they showed they have finally perfected the formula they should hurry up and put those skill into a new garme not bogged down by those shitty old ones.

 

[yogaflame]

Very underated. Very charming, cozy, and feel good FF.

If they pull what off? That was the project, and it took years.

Offtopic, but...

I just found out about this, not sure I've ever seen this battle dialogue (apparently it needs Yuna, Wakka, and Lulu + at least 3 monsters). Kinda funny for Yuna considering her personality in FFX.

Aren't those new, "perfected" FF games selling below Square's expectations, though?

I think they said remake surpassed expectation. while Rebirth was below expectations, although it did better than expected on PC.

Wasn't thinking about that at all though it's irrelevant to me Tons of the best games i played got little critical acclaim

Square has unreasonable expectations. Remember when they called Tomb Raider a failure because it only sold 3.5 million units in it's first 2 weeks?

Fair enough, I still think the FF7 Remake games and FF16 were pretty mediocre, and I rather prefer the "old shit". But to each their own, I guess. Maybe FF7 Remake Part 3 will be good, who knows.

Yeah, I remember that. Unfortunately for them, they don't have Eidos to blame for their bad performance anymore at investor meetings.

Was only talking about FF7 not a fan of FF16, wished it had the rebirth battles system

So go play the old shit…this viewpoint is tired. No one is making you play a remake or remaster, and the old versions still exist.

I am doing exactly that. I wouldn't say no to a new Final Fantasy that isn't shit, tho. But at least I have Dragon Quest still. Although I am a bit afraid of them "revamping" the battle system for DQ12... Not against trying new things if they are implemented well. But I am against new things that are implemented poorly.

Agreed with Dragon Quest…if they do add a more action based battle system, I hope they also have a turn-based system. Maybe one that you can switch between. Almost like DQXI system, where you could switch to a free run type mode. Just don't get rid of the turn-based system for DQ, that's the uniqueness of the series.

Or maybe they do something similar to Metaphor, where you have a rudimentary action combat system for easy/trash fights and the possibility to go into a turn-based combat mode.

 

[Woopah]

Almost everything else from the GeForce leak has been shown. We are just waiting for this and Tactics.

So what's the next cope date since it wasn't in the Nintendo Direct?

Never …

 

[Jinzo Prime]

So what's the next cope date since it wasn't in the Nintendo Direct?

It might get announced at the Treehouse events today and tomorrow. Or the next Sony SoP if they have marketing rights. I still think this is coming sometime soon.

 

[adamsapple]

Fuck

 

[asdasdasdbb]

Fuck

That got a chuckle from me.

Silly Youtubers.

What's the next cope date after this.

 

[Hawk The Slayer]

What's the next cope date after this.

The final cope would be on the 25th Ann day during July. If nothing comes from that than it's over for me.

I liked World of Final Fantasy and its art. Nice to have games that aren't trying you be overly serious and melodramatic.

 

[Deerock71]

I can't remember if IX had random battles or not. I HATE random battles. If they remake it, let us SEE the battles we're getting into.

It did. Been over 20 years now but I distinctly remember running around on a little patch of ground on a mountaintop trying to get a rare enemy spawn for some side quest.

 

[asdasdasdbb]

I wouldn't be surprised if it was just shadow dropped.
