WarKirby3333 Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 Only 9 replies!!?? I would have thought a Final Fantasy thread would have been more popular than this. A lot of people I know think FF9 is inferior to 7 & 8. But I highly disagree. It had some pretty decent characters, and I found the skill learning system to be a lot more satisfying than materia or GF's. The best aspect of 9 imo, was the music. I found final fantasy 9's soundtrack more compelling and breathtaking than any of Nobuo Uematsu's previous works. Melodies of Life is one of my all time favorite songs. Is it a bit weird that I have the sountracks to every final fantasy game? Nobuo Uematsu is my favorite artist bar none. WarKirby Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Switch Posted September 14, 2006 Share Posted September 14, 2006 I have to agree with you on the music front, there. Some of the tracks I found pretty moving (not as in sobbing into Kleenex, but moving :P). And the towns in that game have to be some of the most atmospheric I've ever experienced, even though they were just pre-rendered static pictures with collision. Now that's the power of a good soundtrack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarKirby3333 Posted September 16, 2006 Share Posted September 16, 2006 Lindblum was my favorite place. That opening cutscene when you first fly in on that rickety cargo ship. Breathtaking WarKirby Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Switch Posted September 16, 2006 Share Posted September 16, 2006 Thank you! I couldn't for the life of me remember the name of that place, which is why I didn't mention it. :P Lindblum has to be my fave, as well. Followed second by that twee village with the secret mage doll facility under it (I've played through this game like 3 or 4 times, you'd think I could remember the names of things by now...)

WarKirby3333 Posted September 18, 2006 Share Posted September 18, 2006 The little village is Dali. Why do you like it though? I despise the place personally. The kids are snotty and rude, and most of the people aren't very nice. I'd love to summon Atomos and wipe it off the map. Does anyone remember Burmecia, the City of Eternal Rain. I found it highly depressing and loathed going there. Such emotions evoked by a tune and some rain. On the flipside, I loved Treno. It has a wonderful atmosphere, and a catchy theme tune.

Switch Posted September 18, 2006 Share Posted September 18, 2006 I liked Dali because of its tune, the layout of the village and such. It's true the residents weren't the nicest people, though. :P As for Burmecia, yeah, that was a pretty atmospheric place. ^^ I don't know if it ever really affected me much though. Bah, forgot about Treno (too long since I last played through this game). That's probably a notch or two above Dali. The Black Mage Village is a pretty spiffy place as well.

WarKirby3333 Posted September 18, 2006 Share Posted September 18, 2006 The black mage village was indeed a brilliant place. Especially with that super synthesis shop. Also, I like the black mages in general. Their naive, childlike attitude to life was an interesting touch. The place becomes even more interesting when the genomes are added later on.

The storyline made no sense, it was a disjointed hash of dialogue, dialogue that was mainly used to stick the overly long fight scenes together. I just sat there humouring it for the whole hour and a half, concentrating on it, and at the end was just left thinking... "what the hell?". And yes I have played FF7. It still made no sense to me whatsoever... This is all in my opinion of course, and I don't want to start a flamewar. :P Can't deny the CG was beautiful, and the fight scenes fairly impressive. But still... storyline? Hello? Spirits Within did better than this film in that respect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
