FFXII WHAT DO YOU THINK?
Posts
FFXII, this one didn't stick to me like the rest. It's like another game, with lots of FF references and, of course, got slapped in with the big name. Truth be told, I didn't play the game for what it is, but only because of the name. =O
I think FFXII was a pretty wonderful game. It's a little different, but I don't think I've played many games like it. I really enjoyed the battle system while I was exploring, but at the same time I felt like it made most boss feel hectic. This is sort of the inverse of FFX; while FFX had memorable, extended boss fights that were the best parts of the game, FFXII was the most fun in-between climactic moments.
The 9999 damage limit thing was a pain, though, because it was easy to hit that cap fairly early in the game without an unusual amount of grinding. At the end, it isn't about the most effective strategy - hitting enemy weaknesses etc - but more about getting as many hits in as possible because most of your hits will inflict 9999 damage.

I like there being almost impossible things to do. I remember before the internet was mainstream playing Final Fantasy III (VI) on the SNES forever trying to beat Seigfried in the Collesium just because I thought maybe (just maybe) it'd lead to a giant secret. Sadly it wasn't the case, but I wished there was these unknown impossible secrets in the game that you had to be lucky to find. Now people can look on the internet and the chance to find the impossible is gone.
I just traded in FFXII for FFX1.
For Darken's sake: I just traded in FINAL FANTASY TWELVE for FINAL FANTASY TEN PART ONE.
Is this a worthy trade? I'm enjoying X so far, although the graphics and cutscenes are a huge step back from the remarkable quality of FFXII's. Pity.

Final Fantasy X has the most consistent environment and world setting ever in any FF game, next to FF12.
