Board 8 > FFIX and X are better than VII.

(+) Yeah! (+)

Eh, the FFIX spoilers didn't really make me all that sad, because I was more invested in Zidane/Garnet than I was in Vivi, and he "comes back" anyways.

The whole Black Mage side story was really gutting though. Poor things. v_v

I didn't notice IX having a particularly high encounter rate. I thought it balanced it out pretty well with how long the battles took. Same with VIII.

Wait what? battles in 9 took longer and there were more of them. On top of this leveling in 9 was slower.

Any decent JRPG is better than FF7.

Anyways, I'd have to rank it X>VII>IX i guess. I used to really like VI, but it's just a really good game now. I like tactics, but it's never been an amazing game for me either. I'm not found of the other games in the series, which includes 4, 5, 8, 12 etc.

X has a good cast of characters, opposed to say something like IX where I really only care about 2 of them. X also has blitzball, no friggen TetraMaster, Triple Triad, or Sphere break. Really, when did they decide using math was a good way to have fun in a game?

I can take or leave X, but IX is absolutely awesome.

IX, yes.
X, no.

Then I bust out Sudowoodo, and you're like "lol grass" so you try fire BUT IT DOESN'T WORK BECAUSE SUDOWOODO IS A ****ING ROCK!

I love 7-10 + Tactics. Some of the most miraculous years of gaming. All great games. Ask me (excluding FF8) which one I like most and I'll give you a different answer each time. FF8 is my personal favorite, but I wasn't disappointed with any of those games. Even more remarkable that they were all made in a span of like 5 years.

Even more remarkable still is that Square managed to crank a couple of incredibly memorable game out that weren't even FFs during that span. Obviously I'm going to use every opportunity to reference Xenogears.

How did I forget Xenogears?

FF8, SO2 and XG. My 3 favorite RPG's. So toss in XG and man. What a great company they once were.

I'm super surprised you didn't play these games until recently after how much you've proclaimed FF7 as the game of the ever.

give FF6 a play, yeah. that's the last big one.

though I'd love to see you give Xenogears a go.

I'm not surprised. Plenty of people here claim ToS is a great game. You gotta figure they've played 50 games tops.

most of it (if not all) was me playing a character.

I'd love to try Xenogears but isn't that a PSX game that's tough to find?

Xenogears is on the PSN now.

Oh. Well then. Dang. I somehow gotta find time to beat all the PW games, FFVI and Xenogears. And I am TERRIBLE at completing games.

It's arguable but for me it will always be:

VIII > VII > VI > X > IX

And that is with me absolutely loving IX as well

Ah and Xenogears, hell yeah! The golden years of RPG :)
