Don't 1 & 4 contradict each other?
Also the whole invasion and projected dream then being thrust unto the real world to fight his father that has become some sort of mythical religious Godzilla just does't sit well with me.

It seems the whole initial setting is ignored for something hazy and vague.

My only doubt with X plot is...
But we'll never know. Sleep time, good night!

X's ending so far is the only FF that made me cry.
That, and no male character in the FF universe is manlier than Jecht. No one.

No.

One.

Not to give you any ideas or anything, but it is the same as if Yuna did it with Shiva. She's still doing it with a physical entity~

To be honest, my main problem with XIII was Vanille's accent.

What was ridiculous about VIII beyond the fact that it was a time travel story and those are always guaranteed to cause confusion across the board?

It was host to a myriad of plot holes and theories about things like Raine's death, and Rinoa being a sorceress from the start, etc. etc.

Not so much - the structure of Sin is basically:

Also, with respect to Dream Zanarkand - this becomes SO EERIE later on.

The city that never sleeps.

This phrase is mentioned twice (predominantly). The first time it is simply a description.

The second time... it has this playing in the background



- it takes on a whole new eerie/sinister meaning when you consider what it really is, and its inhabitants really are.

I'll give it another go when I get the time.
I last played 10 when I was 13 or 14 (10+ years ago), so my perspective might have been tainted by being a naive teenager.

I promise to give it another go, but I can't say it'll change my perspective to how ridiculous and inconceivable the whole thing sounds.
Things like that almost make something like Evangelion make sense.

Anyways, time for work. Was fun discussing new vs. old with y'all.

Either Tidus is superior to Vaan, the worst protagonist in a numbered FF to date.

Yes, I know Ashe was the 'real' protagonist but damn the game would have been better if Vaan wasn't just some guy occupying space.

I felt awkward playing with Vanille in party.
I'm pretty sure if someone stood outside your door while Vanille was getting attacked they'd assume you were watching J-porn.

It's cool, there's a lot to remember :P I've just played it through so many times and adored the storyline so much. I have a very potent memory too.

I've been bouncing around so many FFs lately. Finished VIII and IX not too long ago, then X, then X-2, then XII, now on III.

Stories can get a little mixed up atm.

Shid before XIII-2 we should both replay XIII.
It'll be just like last time.
You - "I shouldn't have fought this. Sam what ever you do, don't run at the big thing."

*1 hour later*

Me - "You were right, I shouldn't have fought this."

It would NOT surprise me if someone made a full song based off of that.
