Re: Introduce yourself

Welcome hero!

Fuck yes it does, it falls under the sub-category 'Tactical/Strategy RPG. And as far as I'm concerned it's unrivalled when it comes to storylines in RPG's and video games in general. Though the remake, FFT:War of the Lions told the story a lot better. Though thats probably because they translated it right xD And Balthier in FFT:WoTL was broken as fuck if you kept using Ramza's Squire ability 'Tailwind' on him. I believe the skill in the PSX version was called Yell.
I might need to check out war of the Lions then, because I loved the story. Well, I just really sucked at the game lol. What platform is it on?

Re: Introduce yourself

It's on the PSP, it's a truly epic conversion with two new classes and a few new battles as well as Balthier from FF12 and Luso from Tactics A2 as playable characters.

Re: Introduce yourself

Not going to jump too huge into the FF/CT talk, but love the FF series to death! I'm currently working on getting through War of the Lions (want my Balthier! Squee!) and I picked up A2 for my DS but haven't started it yet. Same goes for KH: Days and Dissidia *laughs* So many games, so little sleep! Heheheheeh!

Re: Introduce yourself

Played and beat CT on the DS, without having played the original before. It's amazing, of course, but I don't need to say that.

I need to get KH: Over 9000 soon, but I also want to get a PSP for Birth by Sleep, so I don't know which will happen.

Same for this and Dissidia. I saw a set that I pointed out to my sis that was about 200$ for both the system, Dissidia, and a PsP disc of Advent Children ^^

I have CT for my Playstation. Yet another one I actually have to go back and play. And I need to finish ChronoCross one of these days, too. God, I love that concert. *bounces* Birth by Sleep is PSP? I thought it was PS3. *happydance*

Yeah, that's likely the one I would have gone with if I hadn't already be given a PSP by the ex for my *last* birthday. That being said, I want the blu ray Advent Children, which is supposed to be the better translated extended one.

To put it in Kindom Hearts terms, it's a Final Mix. Personally, I'm asking 'why only blu ray? D:

Re: Introduce yourself

CTrigger is the best game ever. CCross I haven't played, but I get the sinking feeling that it's not very good. CT DS is good, but only because the original game was good. The changes to the game were either neutral in effect or just plain bad (renaming the roly, poly and roly-poly, for instance), with the exception of the bonus dungeon, if only because it's been so long since anything official came out for CT.

FF 5 rocks, so do a lot of the other games. As I first played FF5 while quite young, and didn't figure out that I should be equipping characters, I ended up choosing a party of monk, monk, monk and monk, and did really well, getting through half the game without any trouble at all or even power-levelling... and the only reason I stopped there was ‘cause I couldn’t find Cid to get him to take me to the second half of the game. As such, this is the party I have used in any of the job-allowing FF games since. Though, that damn elephant in the second crystal’s tower was a bitch…

FF3 sucked ass, it just plain wasn’t that good in general, plus it had two parts that killed you instantly, one of which you had no idea or warning that it would do that, until suddenly, poof, you're dead (entrance to bad guy's tower if you don't have all the orbs). On top of that, the final 'battle' was a marathon of: the supposed final boss giving you a speech, the fight with the boss, a large cutscene and hopeless battle against the real final boss, another cutscene, and then another dungeon with four very difficult and long boss fights in it, each with their own annoying before and after cutscenes, before finally fighting the final boss. And if you die anywhere in that sequence except in the hopeless fight? YOU DO THE WHOLE THING FROM THE START AGAIN, BECAUSE YOU CAN'T SAVE IN THAT SECTION. Whoever designed that was an utter sadist.

Re: Introduce yourself

Chrono Cross was okay. I wouldn't really call it a sequel... it's only vestigially related. Actually, I'm not exactly sure if I can even give it a rating because I didn't really understand the story. It was sort of metaphysical and went over my head. I read somewhere that it has a ridiculous number of paths you can go down because you can acquire the upwards of twenty or thirty characters in almost any order (and you can miss or refuse quite a few of them). Then and again I only played it once and it was a few years ago so I can't really recommend playing or not playing. Just emulate and see for yourself =p

Hey copper. How is PS CT different from SNES CT? Is it radically different or does it just have the anime cutscenes added as sort of bonus content?

Re: Introduce yourself

Oh god, Dissidia is like a constant orgasm. And as I said earlier, make sure you have Balthier in your main team and use Ramza to increase his speed. His accuracy is influenced by his speed stat, and he has some of the best abilities including the abilities that break peoples arm's and leg's. A2 is alright, though it's nothing really worth shouting about. And I really hope they do DLC for Dissidia.

Can't say. When I picked the game up, I was pretty much sunk into one of my other games and things just cascaded from there. Also, not having played the original CT, I can't really say.

Re: Introduce yourself

Aye, welcome Kikun. No worries about the interruption. We'll find something else to talk about soon enough.

And no worries about the English, either. Even us English speaking folks have bad days now and again.
