You could probably make a link between the Lunarians from FF4 and the other dimension from FF5 that uses meteors to bridge the worlds.

And wasn't the end of FF7 a prequel to FFX according to one of the retarded writers at Square Enix?

>> No.1473985

>>1473959
FFX is a prequel to FF7, and I'm using the term "prequel" very loosely.
In X-2 there's a character named Shinra that learns how to harvest energy from the lifestream of the planet.

Yeah, not shitting you here, at the end of Lightning Returns she becomes an actual goddess, takes all her FF13 friends with her into space, flies to a new solar system and creates Earth. Then I guess it fast forwards some years and it shows her living in fucking real world France. It's also been hinted she will appear in FF15 too probably as the goddess of that world too no doubt

I would hope that's how everyone views it. Time spent playing FF6 shows you that it's about all of them (some more than others, but FF6 is not solely Terra, Celes, or Locke).

It's far from my favorite game in the series. But it has my favorite cast, and I think them being an ensemble lends to that.

>> No.1474905

V is the only one I haven't played, but I will soon. I hear it has a great job class, but I really love the job classes in X-2. And XII has simple the best battle system I've ever seen in an RPG.

I always give it to Celes. The second half of the game I think Terra is completely optional. I guess you could say Terra was the main for the first half, and Celes the second.

> The After Years
Ursula was the best. Luca was also pretty great. I kindof liked Leonora.

I heard from an unreliable source that Harley was originally meant to be a Blue Mage; she would have learned monster attacks and that's why her stats were so mage-y. But for some reason (possibly because the monster attacks in FF4 are not great), this was removed, but Harley wasn't changed to fit the difference, and instead they just gave her Gil Toss.
Edge's boring ninja troupe shows the beginnings of single note personalities in their introductions and are a cool idea in theory, but afterwards they completely lose those personalities in favor of sucking Edge's cock all day alongside useless filler dialog that makes his scenes five times longer than they have any right to be. They are worthless and anyone who isn't a masochist will kill them immediately.

After Years has a lot of ideas that I honestly look at and think are cool ideas, in theory -- and this is immediately followed up with, "And they completely fucked it up." I feel like a lot of the ideas had potential and literally every single one is wasted.

The Eblan Four are given a starring role alongside Edge, and their personalities are not expanded in any way.
