You're stupid.

The same spells and summons appear in almost any JRPG. Does that make every JRPG identical to FF? FF titles share a broad universe, but that doesn't make them the same. It's a universe. It's a lore. It's familiar while being completely different.

maybe the spell fire appears in every JRPG, but that's about it. The person I was responding to said

If you can find me final fantasy summons in other JRPGS I'd would love to see it. Go take your snarky comments elsewhere.

It was released on steam.
Just FYI

Edit: x3 speed is there so it should help the ones who complain about battle speed.

Also the characters look better.

Final Fantasy IX may be the best Final Fantasy game that no one will admit is the best in the series.

For me it goes X, IX, VI, VII, the rest for my favorites.

Zidane is definitely the most underrated protagonist in Final Fantasy.

FFX is the best in the series, the artwork that it had was fantastic for the time when it came out. FFII/IV is a close second.

Its pretty wild how much 9 is praised on here.

Don't get me wrong, its a great game, but I don't think its the best in the series.

It is the best, you are wrong.

Sorry.

Edit: I am just messing with you but I don't see how it is "wild"

It is the highest rated Final Fantasy game by critics
It is the highest rated (tied) Final Fantasy game by fans.

Going off of metacritic.

It is surely my favorite.

Do the background look like someone threw up on screen or were they re-done for high res displays?

Really sucks going back and playing 7, 8, and now 9 for that reason. FFX HD has high res pre-rendered backgrounds. Why can't the older titles?

Probably because they don't have the original art backed up and it would be too much work to update.
They seem to only have the 320x240 native that was playstation.

I guy did find some of the original ff 9 art before they downscaled for ps1. Looks amazing.


FF 9 higher res backgrounds

8 was my favorite. I liked 9 but the characters were the most goofy and kiddy out of all the final fantasys IMO. It was a light hearted FF

I also think it was the hardest, it was the only one I never finished

Their art design was but besides that I would argue the opposite.

Apparently Square dropped the ball with controller support on this one. Everytime I try to use my ps3 controller my character keeps going to the right, seems to be a pretty widespread problem.

Does it work with an xbox controller?

I've read that people we're playing with the 360 controller, but having problems with the One controller. I don't have a xbox so I couldn't try it out. Apparently, a modder has released a mod for it. I couldn't get it to work though.

Eh, I can understand issues with a Playstation controller as those aren't officially Xbox fame pads, but Xbox one controller should work

So I've been playing this. I just got to "Disk 2." There's so much in this game that you can miss without following a guide.

That's my only complaint thus far. I feel like I'm going to be ridiculously underpowered if I just follow the storyline
