FINAL FANTASY IX

perfect

HMMM STORY 10 / 10 COMBAT 5 / 10 I absolutely loved the story as every other Final Fantasy I have played before, but combat was one of my least favorite from every Final Fantasy I have played before. I think i did at least 100+ phoenix downs and life even after pre grinding before boss battle, most boss battle fight wasn't hard fight but it was quite annoying in all honesty having to use phoenix downs and life + Also the fact that u can't tell what kind of item you just picked up from the ground was also annoying, i couldn't tell whether i picked up key item or usable item or if it was an equipment piece.

Despite being two and a half decades old, Final Fantasy IX has aged beautifully. The presentation is stellar for its age, squeezing everything it could out of old hardware to provide impressive graphics, great sound design, catchy music, and sprawling set pieces. The combat is dynamic, with the FF series' Active Time Battle system fusing real time action and turn based combat very well, which ultimately makes combat more engaging and fun once you get past the learning curve. The characters are awesome, featuring entertaining personalities, memorable designs, fun movesets, and unique motivations, overall leading me to get attached. On top of that, one of my least favorite things in games like this is being forced to choose between party members and having to be intentional about changing them out, and this game helps mitigate that issue by having many instances in the story force a particular party, especially in the early game, which I appreciated and found quite natural. The story is really interesting, and is a perfect game to introduce you to Final Fantasy as staple series elements like summon magic and black mages are very plot-centric. It is also packed with lots of fascinating locations and great side characters, which is important for a game as long as this. The content on offer is plentiful, with not only a lengthy main story but plenty of minigames and optional side content, some of which I did not even get to. And lastly, the messaging is compelling, ultimately being about what it means to truly live, which involves characters facing their own mortality, grappling with being artificially created for an unwanted purpose, and finding their own meaning and purpose for living. Overall, this game is the whole package, and if you can stomach the long-winded nature of JRPGs, FFIX is a worthy playthrough indeed.

An amazing game with a great story and characters that still is one of Square's best. The combat is pure classic final fantasy you know and love along with the ability system that is not that hard to get used to. The only thing I never like is the difficulty spike at the end. Just weird out of nowhere the enemies hit like a truck when I was doing fine in the prior dungeons. Well hopefully if there ever is a remake it is more faithful to the original and does not go insane like the FF7 games have been.

quina is the best final fantasy character

Unos últimos de los grandes Final Fantasy antes de fusionarse con Enix. Totalmente recomendable. Recomedable jugarlo con el MoguriMod. Mejoras graficas.
