Welcome to c/FinalFantasy!

As this is a new community, we have to start somewhere. So why not a better way than getting to know each other and starting some conversations. We could start with these questions…

  • What was the first Final Fantasy game that you played?
  • Which is your favourite in the fanchise?
  • Do you have a favourite piece of music?
  • What’s the most memorable moment for you?

As I asked the questions, I’ll answer first!

What was the first Final Fantasy game that you played?

FFVII was my first. It was freshly released, I was young and had no clue about the series at the time. I’d see a lot of hype in different PlayStation magazines about it and ended up buying it when it was released. I got hooked and have stuck with the series and more since then.

Which is your favourite in the franchise?

It’s a difficult question as there’s so many to love and enjoy, so I have a few. So, controversial one first. FFVIII. While VII was what got me hooked, VIII is the game that solidified it for me. There was and still is just something about it.

The other is XII. The story and characters around this entire game is incredible to me.

Lastly, XIV. It’s a stunning game that offers so much.

Do you have a favourite piece of music?

I love FF music, so this is incredibly difficult to answer. I know I asked the question but I need to have a serious think about this one.

What’s the most memorable moment for you?

It almost seems cliche, but Yuna performing the Sending in FFX is probably this. It was such a beautiful and almost haunting moment as performed to free the souls and send them on their way to the Farplane. A scene so impactful it became the game logo.

FFVII was my first title too. I was still in elementary school back then, but I had a blast playing it together with my friends after school. Obviously, I replayed it when I was older and understood the systems better. It wasn't until FFX that I played another FF game. While it was fun, it's not my favourite.

I played FFXIII this year for the first time on my PS5, and I have to say it's a real contender for my favourite FF game. The characters are well-developed, the storyline is great, and I've spent more time on Triple Triad than I want to admit.

I’m assuming you mean VIII on your PS5?

I love Triple Triad too. If you’re interested in MMOs, XIV has a fantastic version of TT (among many other great things).

VIII is such a wonder game, glad to see there’s others that enjoy it as much as I do.
