>3D
Bof is not 3D. Aside from that, "one of" means exactly one of. I didn't say the best. Saying that Legend of dragoon looked bad at the time is far fetched.
3D games get older faster than 2D games by default. This is especially true for JRPGs. I agree, chrono cross had better graphics, but many games had it worse at the time, not to mention lack of FMV.

>looking dull
That's just how the game decided to be, it's part of it's aesthetics. I think that choice was intentional. It had chance to gather different target audience than colorfull games.

>the contrast been silly and dark themes

There were parts of the game where they were dealing with very dark subject matter such as child abduction, people being genetically modified against their will in a lab, corruption in politics, etc and the outcome was not picture esque so to speak. Inversely the antics of the two comedy relief characters in their side quests had me in stitches.

>Copious amounts of sidequests via the hunters guild and secret characters

The side quests weren't fetch quests, they were usually missions one mercenary/bounter hunter character took on. One involved him hunting a "jack the ripper" esque character in the middle of the night.

1. You're anon, so why are you trying to appease this stupid board when you have no face? No one knows you.

2. Every game has flaws. Even the GOATs. The games that defined their eras. SMB, Gunstar Heroes, Phantasy Star IV, Ocarina/FF7/SM64, and the like. All of em. All of them are amazing and they all have flaws. Of course great games like LoD and FF8 have flaws.

3. I'll reiterate when I say that FF8 and LoD are great games that are worth playing through. The haters are fags that ride Spoony's dick with regard to FF8. As for LoD, I have no idea as hate for this game is a recent phenomena. FF8 divided fans on release, but iirc if you could find someone that even played LoD the most they'd say was they liked Dart, Dragons, and the paper-mario/super mario rpg esque action combat. No hyperbole back then.

tl;dr there is nothing wrong with liking those games unironically

Not him but Mystic Quest sucks and FFII is weak.

The series is overall pretty consistent. V, VII, and IX are my personal favorites. VIII gets a lot of vitriol but I still enjoy it for what it is.

[Anonymous No.3846536]

I'm currently playing FFVIII again, never finished it (I always got stuck at Ultimecia's Castle), so I deciced to give it a try. I didn't like it when I played it years ago, and I'm really not enjoying it now...

Junction system is so broken it makes the battles boring, also grinding is pointless because enemies level up with your party, so what's the point of battling.
Both Squall and Rinoa suck as main characters. I ""liked"" the edgy Squall at the beggining (at least he had personality, a shitty and emo one, but still...), but I can't stand Rinoa, I hate her so much, she has no personality other than being a romantic mate to Squall and that's all she does in all the fucking game. Now I'm at the part when Rinoa is in a coma and I want to fucking kill myself. The other characters are nice but after Disc 2 they got pushed aside from the plot and serve only as "party fillers" which is a waste of potential characters.
The main plot has no fucking sense?? It's my fourth? time attempting to finish the game (I watched the ending a few times on yt to know how the story ends), but really, the only way the game makes any sense to me is with the "Squall dies at the end of Disc1" theory. Is it really the written fucked up, or is it just that the story itself is a mess?
Good points are, the story parts with Laguna are fun as I remembered, and Uematsu's music is amazing as ever.

It's a shame because I feel this game has lot of potential to be a really great game. I wouldn't mind to see a remake like FFVIIR, action-rpg combat style would fit great with VIII Junction system imo.

(Sorry if I made some typos, it's not my tongue language but I feel the need to post my thoughts)

[Anonymous No.3846539]

Rinoa in the coma part sucks.

But, there's a lot of details during the Laguna dream sequence that are pretty interesting.

Plus, you should be on the road to Esthar which is when the game picks up the most.

Ultimecia's castle is pretty confusing, I'd just unlock your key abilities, skip some of the bosses, and go straight to the final battle once you get there.

I thought I should explain the story a bit because I do actually love it, not the Rinoa/Squall lovey dovey shit (well, not directly), but the time compression.

According to Laguna and Edea, Ultimecia wants to be able to compress time. This means she wants to blend past, present, and future magic all together.

You have to take into account that Ultimecia IS Rinoa, just in the future. Rinoa wants to be with her knight, Squall, forever so she turned him into her GF and now wants to spend eternity wth him by compressing time and essentially destroying the world's time flow.

This is why your chain's name (I forgot exactly what it was) is the name of Ultimecia's summon.

The rest of VIII's Rinoa/Squall story is pretty bad in my opinion but that ompression struck me as really in-depth and I do wish it was talked about more.

I really wish the rest of the characters were given much more show time, even if it wasn't mandatory. Selphie's trip to her garden was really cool, and learning about Quistis' past during that small segment was nice too, but Zell/Irvine never had the same treatment and I would've loved to learn about Zell and why his dad wasn't present and such.

So what about Tactics, Crystal Chronicles, Mystic Quest, Dissidia, Mobius? They aren't real FF games neither?

Are you stupid?

I said it was for personal reasons. Other than that, and that MAYBE 4 should be between 6 and 7, my listing is accurate. My personal feelings aside, 12 would be somewhere near the middle, between 8 and 9.

of the bad Final Fantasy games, 12 is the least bad.

that doesn't make it on any scale of the good side of Final Fantasy

Eh I liked 4 DS more than 8 and I loved 8.

I love how my favorite FF causes people so much asspain

The game is great if only for that reason alone. You people just cannot handle that your opinion really isn't superior so you constantly make threads shitting on games like FF7, FF8, and MGS.

Didn't play it, so I can't judge.
Fuck, now I'll have to play every port of every FF to rank them better. I think I stopped at the GBA remakes and the tactics remake on the psp

[Anonymous No.3849276]

>>3849014
Not every port, the mobile ports are usually shit. This is all personal opinion though, I really do recommend the DS FF4 to FF fans, it's a step up in terms of difficulty and isn't bullshit grinding.

[Anonymous No.3849280]

MGS? Metal Gear Solid?

4chan is just as bad as Tumblr in that people get triggered at the mere thought of someone else having a different opinion.

[Anonymous No.3850094]

>>3848965
Well people have different opinions. You think VIII is a great game, other people think is a really bad game. It isn't about being superior than others, that's all.

Well I dislike VIII but I'd sooner play through it in its entirety than more than 5 minutes of XIII or any of the new soulless fanwank cashgrabs banking on nostalgia being shat out by Square Penix these days. I think VIII had the potential to be a really great game and I admire it for what it tried to do but the execution was way off the mark, at least in my opinion.

I honestly didn't like 7, it was the second one I played after 8. Forgot to include in list I'd put it between 1 and 10.

4 (DS) I fucking love because it's actually challenging.

Don't count 11/14 as a "FF" since they're MMOs but I only played the original 14 and not ARR so idk how good it is.

>13 higher than 6
I don't think I've ever seen that. There's a first for everything.

All about getting those cards, drawing magic and refining items and magic for you stats. I try to make every enemy a card so i don't level up and mess with the enemies leveling curve.

FFII is way better than people give it credit. its a phenomenal game. attacking your own player is just like training together in the woods. the combat system makes perfect sense for me.

Don't be daft, m8. The originals are the only ones that matter. If you rank remakes you're not ranking the real games.
