LET'S PLAY! FINAL FANTASY IV EDITION! ALSO A GENERAL FINAL FANTASY DISCUSSION TOPIC

I never owned FFIV, and I never played through the ROM once I finally had an emulator.
I did, however, rent it when I was a youngin' from the local video store. I got to the point where I was underground (I think). I just got ...

My memory of the game is a little hazy (it's been over 10 years since I played it!), but I remember really liking Tellah. And Cecil.
However, I just set up an SNES emulator on my PDA, and loaded FFIV, V and VI onto it! I started FFV just for fun. Maybe I'll start FFIV instead.

Kain. Just because his character is plain badass. But I'm gonna leave it at that because I don't want to spoil anything.
I have to say Kain as well, even though he is a backstabbing, flipflopping asshole, his look, style, and especially his Jump attack, well, it's pretty pimp.
Also, you can mention characters that haven't been introduced yet, as long as you don't spoil too much.

Yay you finally got to Palom and Porom my two favourite characters.
Nice update! Fingers crossed that Edward drowned...well that never happens in a FF game *sigh*
After they turned to stone I stopped playing, once you get there this will all be new and interesting to me.

I also quite liked...
ninja prince whats-his-face. His Ninja Magic kicked ass. Plus he looked badass.

(Use "hide"!)
My favorite character is Edward because he's awesome I like Cecil and Kain best, I guess. None of the others are particularly interesting to me so far.
FFIV definitely has its share of 'stock' characters, I'll give you that. However, I think what gives FFIV it's charm is how simple, yet solidly the characters are played out. Every character has their own personality, role in the story, and even their own place in battle. They do their job, and no one is really left out.
Not even Edward.
Not even Edward.
I agree about what you say about Edward, but the reason I don't like him is because while he does help your party, I can't really see him as EVER being a badass.
Imagine him being in your party in the battle against Zeromus.
Oh, no way Edwards ever going to be a badass, because well, he isn't. Fortunately for him, he does have his place in the story, so in that, he fulfills his purpose.
And it's funny you say that, because...

In this version, you can pick and choose your party members for the final stretch of the game and beyond.

I actually JUST discovered the Adv. versions

Ah... FFIV...
Back in the day (about 4-5 years ago), my brother and I (we were about 5-6), used to have FF Anthology on PS1 (which is FF4-FF5 together), and we used to play it with two controllers XD. We'd share the party, and we'd play our respective characters in battle ^.^ (though, he always managed to be leading on the field... But that didn't matter thanks to FFIV's extremely high encounter rate :P).

You're doing a great job so far Feldschlacht, especially the commentary.
Keep it up :P.
The only thing I didn't like about the Anthology versions was how slow the loading times were. It sucked, a lot. And, they COULD have at least fixed the games up a bit (as in bugs and whatnot).
... Anthology had FF5 and FF6 together. The one that had FFIV on the PS1 was Chronicles, and that was packaged with Chrono Trigger. Crazy long load times still apply, however.
I'd echo people's liking for Kain, and add on my own liking for Rosa. She's the classic love interest/white mage character.

And yes, Edge is flippin' awesome. I can't wait to see how they portray him in the DS version.

I didn't really like Kain... He's just not the sort of person I like.
I like Tellah on the other hand. He's just awesome :P.
Oh, he anthology I played Trance2 was this one:
That's FF5 art all right... I didn't realize PAL had a different compilation release. the NTSC and JPN releases of Anthology were FF5/6, like I said. Yay for differing releases in differing regions.
Also, I will agree about Tellah for one reason: "YOU SPOONY BARD!"

I liked that bit as well XD.
Though...
It was bad when he died... I was like, powerless in battle, as I relied on him too much :(
Hey guys, I've been thinking...what if I started doing videos for my Let's Play? What would you guys think?
