Yo!!! Look Who's Back LOL Anyway How Is This Game For A FF Fanatic?

[Almost Tactful]

Hey peoples it's been a looooooooooooooooong time, anyway how is this game I love Final Fantasy and really enjoyed Enchanted Arms as well, will this live up to the hype? Is it as in depth as far as weapons, armor, spells, and attacks go? How long is the story....40 hours, 60 hours, 80+ hours??? Lemme know!

im an ff fanatic and i say i love this game, doesnt live up to ff games, but beat enchanted arms (i like that to)

few problems with it though not as in depth (story wise it is very) but weapons wise not nearly as in depth as ff 7 or 10

spell wise not to many

black white and sprit, 8 levels 4 spells in each level of magic,
then there is composite magic which mixes 2 spells (set you dont choose what to mix)

but most of the spells are upgades of another,

flare flara flarus
heal heala healus

you know like thunder thunara thundaga

also not many elements in this game

fire, water, earth, wind, light , shadow


items are not as good and annoying, like there is no items that affect all your party members or all the enemies, so no healing all your guys at once, there are spells that do this to.

skill system is fairly in depth though.


armour is ok, though not actually armour its accesories, that teach or give your guys skills.


id say you could complete story 40-50 hours.

but if your a level up guy, or achievment seeker or just a guy who like to do side quests id say 60-90 depending on how experienced you are, 60 for experts 90 for begginers, im on 64 hours just about to begin final part of game do ill be around 67 hours completion.



one good thin about this game is there is immortals and mortals, and the way you play with each is different.

you choose the skills and spells for immortals, but mortals are set,

also immortals come back to life in battle after 2-3 turns. mortals dont they need to be revived


but i think its great even for an FF fan, not quite FF but a bloody good try, only the very little things bug me

9.1/10

Hi AT long time no hear. Hope you're ok.
Anyway back on topic. Ive not played it as much as david but like you i loved all the FF series & Enchanted arms.
& this game is great its very much like the FF series & so far "ALOT" better than Enchanted arms. Get it AT get it now.

One things for sure is the music is just like a FF, I give it a 9.5/10 and the battle system is the same. But with some unique features like the skill linking.

[daviduk2000]

yeah i love music in this game,

kinda annoying in a way cause every time it comes on i whistle,

not to many different tracks (if they are called that) though.

boss fights, normal fights, specaial fights, and then the odd song, and back ground music.


i love the boss n normal fights music

Its a good game but could have been made better through easy things

Well, hello; i'm new here, didn't think to type in x-box 360 forum in me browser and such? Been looking for a while too, aaaanywhoo.

i'd say; for an FF fan this game will dissapoint. It doesn't have the replay factor (due to the at time infuriating difficulty changes, from very easy to Bladdy hard, and also the level cap - willingly introduced to meff off the power players), also the game lags at times; say at the beggining of a battle the camera stops panning and the screen jumps, leaving you feeling somewhat annoyed that a game can't load it's own content. Also something else, sometimes the scenery looks like it's straight from a ps2 game.

However despite these shortcomings the game does deliver on it's 'aim ring' (though not groundbreaking, it is refreshing) and also the EPIC music supplied throughout. Another thing to note is the witty humour introduced as well as the nice dream stories. This game I believe was slightly overhyped (by those people who went and bought Blue dragon, expecting an epic game, only to find a very repetitive, childish game), so don't jump on this game hoping it'll be the best thing ever, simply because it has some weight amongst the other (cough) very well made other x-box 360 JRPG's. However do note, this game IS entertaining, it would be well worth the £39, shame however that it had to be compared to such a great title from a completely different platform.
