This was a lot of fun to listen to. Thanks for sharing your thoughts!

Prequels? Who do they think they are? FATE ZERO?! HAHAHHA

I did just fine as a 10 year old seeing Kuja in his thong LOL.

Something the "Remake" ruined entirely but, nevermind that.

My first ff games ilove the remake comeon square make the remake

I misread that title as VII and was like "but they already did that? Multiple times?"

Reno was best in FF7OG ; AC & Remake/birth did him beyond dirty.

Jesus who is the one and only true God and Creator came to earth 2000+ years ago to go to the cross to pay our sin debt in full. His sacrifice was sufficient to pay the penalty for the sins of the world (1 John 2:2). A created being could not pay the infinite penalty required for sin against an infinite God. Only God could pay such an infinite penalty. Only God could take on the sins of the world (2 Corinthians 5:21), die, and be resurrected, proving His victory over sin and death and that true and only God is JESUS! And He did all that because He loves us and wants to save us and have a relationship with us. JESUS is the only way to Heaven, only He can save us from sin and from hell ( Luke 5:32, John 14, Romans 6:23). Jesus is waiting for you to come to Him, He won't cast you away from Himself if you come to Him. He calls us all to repentance, He loves us and wants to save us. believe and have faith in God then the Holy Spirit will come in and lead you to repent of your sins and God will forgive you of your sins and cleanse you by the blood of Jesus and you'll get born again by His Holy Spirit and have His salvation, you will become a new creation (John 3:3-19). God bless

I agree about how sequels seem artificial in games like the FF games. I'd be 100% down for prequels to FF5, 8, and 10. ...as long as they're NOT done by CBU1, or at least not by the FF7R series team. I have not been a fan of the writing or acting in that game. Too campy. I'll take Team Asano or Yoshi-P for my desired prequels, please. Or throw money at Yoko Taro. Imagine him doing a FFX prequel and diving deep into Yu Yevon and Sin lore/themes.

Vivi was designed to be a solder but when left to his own devices he *chooses* to do everything he can to advoid violence. Only when his friends are in danger does he attempt to use his magic to stop the Black Waltz. You can see a lot of John Locke's tabula rasa and Darwins theory of Natural Morality in his storyline.

Start a petition. For a remake as well

This is a little different but when it comes to talking about saving the world and sequelizing and having a natural conclusion, just look at the Dragon Ball Z sagas, I understand what you're saying and agree but at some point it just becomes reusing assets or IP for money or missed opportunities. Goku is to Vegeta/Frieza/Cell/etc. as Cloud is to Sephiroth. You're more talking about prequels, how they affect story and know what essentially happens, but I'm more referring to my first sentence about creating new obstacles or circumstances once they are once resolved. I think we're kind of saying the same things, I appreciate the content

We need story of best woman - Ultimecia.

yes i want anything ff8 related

Why does it feel like you spend half the time talking about a hypothetical FFX prequel instead of FF8?

I didn't pick up on it because I played this game when I was 14/15 years old with severe daddy issues so I immediately latched onto him as the seemingly nice older mentor figure who I could have a crush on. That was probably the saddest realization I've got from this game now looking back as a grown woman, the moment I realized I definitely would've become one of his victims and just another name on his collection of red binders.

I think a ff5 prequel about galuf and the wariors of dawn could be nice.

I agree that the series does have room for prequels, but I disagree with your 2 choices. The reason why is that each of those stories are resolved in the main game. Laguna and Jecht's trials are concluded by the heroes of the original game. Meaning, that like with the half-baked Crisis Core story Squenix would have to concoct some other narrative to resolve during the events. This will undoubtedly muddy the original narrative (see what they've been doing with FFVII). So, for me, I want prequels fairly removed from the main narrative so that there is more creative freedom to tell original stories, while still developing the world. To that end, I'd argue the games best suited for prequels would be III, VII (I know, but let me explain) and X. III: Warriors of Darkness: In 3 we learn that there are 8 crystals, 4 each for light and dark. We also learn that the world of light is as destructive as darkness. Prior to the events, the heroes of darkness restored the encroachment of light, but seemingly something went wrong, which laid out the groundwork for the rise of the Cloud of Darkness. Maybe I missed something, but what actually went wrong? We would have the chance to explore that world (beyond the final dungeon) and learn about what brought about the original imbalance. Perhaps also learn more about Xande and Master Noah. I know it isn't nearly as rich of a game story, but it leaves room for a return to form for the franchise while allowing for the rich (for its time) world of 3 to be further developed. VII: Jenova War: We learned during FFVII and Rebirth that when Jenova came to the planet it laid waste to the Ancients by posing as loved ones. This was further expanded upon by adding that regular humans were turned against the Ancients due to the affects of Jenova. Eventually heroes from the Cetra came and sealed Jenova away in the Northern Crater (and it is heavily speculated that said heroes eventually became the Knights of the Round). Why would this be a good idea for a prequel? We could learn more about how Jenova actually operates (since Jenova is seemingly a non-actor during the main game, per interviews with the creators) and see how the Ancients actually lived. Further, given the great gap in time, we could see a world that, perhaps, had yet to learn about (or even start utilizing) Materia in any sort of standardized way. Further, with the addition of the Gi Tribe and the Black Materia, we could perhaps unify all these new plot points. Perhaps we could also see what Red XIII's people were like in the past. I imagine a class-based game with the 13 heroic Cetra. Have the story conclude with Jenova's imprisonment and the heroes' deaths. X: Yunalesca and Zaon: I understand the appeal in seeing Jecht and Auron's story, but we know what it was, we saw the major parts and, ultimately (outside of Auron's plan to turn Yuna and Tidus against Yevon) we know it ultimately didn't change too much of the world of Spira. Outside of the appeal of seeing these characters younger, there isn't really much room for a compelling plot. However, the first pilgrimage that started the cycle of death is far more interesting, in my opinion. We know Yunalesca sacrificed Zaon to seal Sin (who is controlled by her father YuYevon) and that she remained unsent to maintain this cycle. However, how did it come to that? What was the first pilgrimage like back when Zanarkand was being destroyed, etc.?? Given the major time gap it allows for a more unique story that helps to establish the world, rather than merely giving the players the ability to revisit it.

Kitase and generally the devs hate the marathon of projects that those remakes require.

I don’t really think any of the other FF games will be revisited after 7 remake. 7 is the only game in the franchise big enough to justify a big project like this. That includes the rumored FF9 remake and FFX-3. I don’t think any of them are real.

There is only so much Final Fantasy one person could handle. I wouldn't want a FF8 prequel. I'd imagine we would play as kids fighting moogles with a stick in that case.

VIII is my least favorite FF game with one of the most fascinating and wholly unique worlds.

Final fantasy X would benefit the most from a prequel,while I do love VIII I dont think there is so much lore behind Lagunas Story,because the conection between Laguna and FFVIII story is not that important. On other hand FF X prequel has a lot of to do with Yuna,Tidus,Auron ,Kihmari ,Lulu and Wakka and even Rikku ,because of Yunas mother. Spira as a world has a lot of lore behind it.

X and VIII could both handle prequels, but I worry about the execution. The sequels we've gotten so far show me it was much more about a strong vision supported by a strong execution, and you could have a good plot but bungle showing it in a meaningful manner.

I'm A Huge Fan Of Ivalice, & The World Building Of Ivalice. There's So Much Potential For New Games, Sequels, & Of Course Prequels. Final Fantasy Tactics Could Have A Good Prequel With Balbanes & Orlandu During The Fifty Year War. Final Fantasy X & VIII Prequels Would Be Neat, But I Think A Tactics Prequel Would Be Better. That's My Bias Showing Through.

I don't really think these games need prequels. You can just have sequels that feature flashback segments interspersed throughout the main story. The plots of the past stories relate to the main story. Take FF8 for example. If the past story would be about Laguna and perhaps his relationship with Raine, you can tie that in with a current story about Squall and Rinoa. Maybe even have a scene with Laguna telling Squall about his mistakes and how it led to him not being there for his wife. Squall learns something and avoids making the same mistake. Or with FFX, you could have a sequel where Tidus and and Yuna are parents and relate that to Jecht's story about wanting to return to his family. Tidus definitely has daddy issues and it could be an interesting way to explore that further by making him a father. Gameplay wise, it might be a challenge to switch between the two segments. But I would just do what FF8 did and just have both characters have the same stats and equipment.

It was very much expected from the tech demo it would be more of a 1:1 then it became the nonsense that it is that I dislike.

Don't forget the God Hyne that create the humanity and giving them Magic that made Sorceress

We don't want a XI remake. We want a VI remake!

Before playing every single FF7 game: my answer was no After playing every single FF7 game: my answer is yes

In a world where you can walk naked round kids at pride then they censer shit change stuff no keep it as it is FFS the worlds mad

The temple of the Ancients reminded me of an Atlantis type place, Atlantis being most likely a myth I know.

We all felt the same about VII but things are going well imo. Will always have the original guys, im excited

I never played the original. I'm 40 so yes I was old enough when it came out but I've always been an asthetics guy and I couldn't get into the unrealistic interpretation of the sprites and never will.

I got annoyed when the game forced me to do side content in order to proceed through the main campaign. I like to save games and some side quests for A new game plus. Please don't force your side games.down my throat. But I loved the game and can't wait for 3.

One of the greatest characters written in gaming

Mid gen revisions killed my console love. If I want incremental improvements and playing games at degraded performance, I'll just stick with my PC and upgrade it. Consoles had one advantage, and embracing these revisions killed that advantage. The best part is they are doing it again. Why!? They can't compete with a 7 year old switch that was weak even for it's time. They obviously are out of touch with their own industry.

i have played it to completion several times already

I remember the first time I played this game I was on the second fight as Ramza in the past days. I ended up using the rush/dash command on a person on the roof and knocked them off for extra damage, and THAT was the moment I fell in love. I’ve tried to do that again on that same battle but never been able to do it again (on that battle specifically)

Tactics has the most real and spiritual stories ever. In the game and also the ones who made it. It was a God sent.

I agree with you in many respects. Especially your last statement. This is an amazing game in spit of what ever flaws you consider it to have. You can say the exact same thing about the OG FF7. It's an amazing game worth its plays in history, despite its flaws.

I believe they "overloaded" Rebirth because i think pt 3 will be more linear akin to Remake in order to focus on the conclusion of the overall because there is ALOT left to cover from the OG story, which they'll also add more content too. Then there will also be the added stuff about Zack. Like is the multiverse "real" or is it just an aspect of the afterlife he is experiencing? Or is it Aeriths doing? Etc... So that's why i think the game may be 50-60 hours long, but without 50 hours of side quest. Rebirth is roughly 40 hours from start to finish of the main quest with about 50 hours of side quests while Remake was about 30 for the maim quest.

cant believe bro is still under 10k hes gonna be living in the alleyway forever

Isn’t the Igneous blade a redesign of Organics? It has some very similar design features & is even “organically” formed from magma.

For that matter, put some clothes/armour on Beatrix!

They had the butterfly edge and *kinda* had Force Edge according to some people (Umbral Blade i think it was called). They just renamed them. I forgot which one was the butterfly edge, but I believe it was either the second or third sword you get in the game. (I’d have preferred they kept the name Butterfly edge, but yeah)

Hhmmmpp. It's a different game than og. If it wasn't a remake, didn't have that ff7 paint, I wouldn't want to play it. It's hard to copy or surpass perfection. But they didn't really do anything great except making a mediocre game that is carried hd og parts.
