Pretty sure KH came soon after this, still under "Squaresoft"

The puzzles where tedious as fuck, boring and bad. Tge game is like 65% fucking cut scenes, overly cheesy dialog and uninspired antagonists. Not that great all in all. Ff12 was better.

​@@theprinceofallsaiyans_vegita I personally feel ff12 was the last truly good one. The only thing I ever will dislike about it is Vaan and Penelo being main characters. Would've rather played the game from the perspective of Ashe or Balthier and wound up with more memorable and interesting characters in the party like Reddas, Vossler, or Larsa lol but I love it nonetheless.

Hope to have that one day haha. 8 is my favourite will be a hard sell if I have kids one day

Nearly 20 years old and there are still people playing this game.

You did play one of the best final fantasy games. My favorite is this one closely followed by 9. That one is active time battle so a bit more urgency. This one definitely has some excellent end game time. Very high end cap.

Yeah that absolutely needs to exit

@Valkyrie ALTER My parents gifted me FFX-2, after loving and playing FFX everyday. I remember the FFX-2 intro making me ultra embarrassed as a kid. I see what they tried to make with this game, great ATB combat but rest of this game feels off, unfocused and wrong. Never touched FFX-2 after buying the HD collection.

@@extradipboneless I hated FFX-2 at the time because I was expecting a faithful continuation of the FFX storyline - years later though I had long since come to terms with the fact that it was just a fan service game, and I picked it up again and enjoyed it very much for what it was. It will never tell a great story, but there is plenty of fun to be had along the way.

@Valkyrie ALTER I can't imagine a hypothetical X-3 based on Braska/Auron/Jecht being anything like X-2's rampant fanservice. ...besides, ladies deserve some beefcake, too.

Actually a FFX-3 has been thrown around. The two directors that worked on FFX and FFX-2 have said it will happen...but when both their schedules line up. It will be a sequel to X-2 taking place a decade or two after the events of X-2.

She's definitely a keeper! FFX is one of my favs

One of the two games that convinced me that it’s world exists even when I turn off the console. The other one is Morrowind.

a true timeless masterpiece

Wakey wakey, hands off snakey.

We've been dreaming for so long, we're tired. will you let us rest? Just a little more, and maybe... Maybe you are the dream that will end our dreaming at last.

@@michaelinzo damn bro. You should've told that to the Fayth lmao

@@davidgn40 xD

sweet

If I could truly connect to someone over this game........ I would meet a soulmate..

@@onliner10000 You'll find them.

FFX is my favorite FFX too!

@@smokeyjo7420 thank god is not x-2

@@smokeyjo7420 Same

Hell yeah!

Wow... I'm definitely going to look further into Gnosticism and the Pleroma. I always thought the Gnostics just believed in a few extra books not included in the bible. I had no idea their entire beliefs are so much more different than modern Christianity.

This.

10's my overall favorite, but 9 then 7 come very close after.

Vivi, best boy in all FF's

Now that I think about it, have you ever made a video about any Final Fantasy game Snake?? I’m curious as to which one you would actually gravitate toward or like.

@@jerrym1218 I did one on the FF7 timeline a few years ago. But I'm not really into FF aside from old Dissidia.

@@The4thSnake- Oh yeah, you did talk about FF VII. It was quite a while ago too. I’m shocked that you didn’t gravitate towards the Final Fantasy Universe, especially since you love games with very good story telling. The franchise does have a pretty good number of great Final Fantasy games with unforgettable stories, characters and music. The franchise isn’t for everyone though, but if you ever find yourself wanting to give another Final Fantasy game a chance that isn’t Final Fantasy VII, then in my opinion, you certainly have to play Final Fantasy VI. I’ve known a lot of people that don’t play RPG’s at all, they would strictly be FPS gamers, or fighting game players, and all it took was playing just one random Final Fantasy game between 1 and 12, and immediately they would become fans and ask which FF should they play next.

@@jerrym1218 I dislike turn-based combat. It's ruined Yakuza 7 for me.

True enough. My GF would call me childish for playing this. That's not going to stop me though, just started my 5th time playing it...

@@RosesAndWhine This is pretty cringe. You’re basically putting your gf on blast publicly lol. What’s to gain in going out of your way to comment about your gf not supporting you? By the way, someone who calls you childish for enjoying a game is probably not worth your time. Hopefully some day you’ll understand that.

Godspeed.

Xenogears is pure unadulterated Gnosticism to the point that it comes off as gibberish to the layperson. Xenoblade is essentially a retelling of Xenogears with many of the more poignant Gnosticism references watered down for a much more coherent and accessible story that maintains the same central message.

Same thing with the shin devil series persona heck even Digimon you just need to know where to look if you're a fan of Dante's Inferno check out Devil May Cry

@@rtyertrt7876 I gotta check those out. I got quite the backlog to catch up on. And loving JRPGs makes it take that much longer to keep up. lol. I have played the first Devil May Cry but it was like a decade ago. I'll have to play all those games coming up here this year. Thanks for pointing out a few games for me!

@@mr79843 👍

Even as someone who loves fighting games, I’ve never thought about it that way. Funny that when I feel like I need a break from fighting games I tend to play turned based rpgs.

@@dmgdisciple9680 they are! they're just waaay faster but that's basically what frame game is all about, knowing who's turn is it and trying not to squander yours. FFX in fact displays "recovery frame data" with the turn bar on the side. The only difference is that wasting turns in rpgs is more generous and usually wastes resources that are obtainable as a function of time (grinding) more than a function of git gud.

But then you got moments where you just fight a bootleg Ghostrider, or give the Grim Reaper a cold or something and kill him instantly. Those games are freaking weird.

3 Nocturne and 4 really have standout morality questions and philosophical conundrums that asks tough questions to the players! then theres Digital devil Saga with its weird take on reincarnation and eastern mysticism. its still amazing tho

It's pretty clear in the main SMT plot that Yahweh is treated as the Demiurge to the Great Will (despite the Demiurge also existing as a part of Yahweh in SMT) and in Persona 5 you literally kill an entity calling itself Yaldaboath (another name for the Demiurge). Gnosticism is all over that franchise.

@@aidanklobuchar1798 are you a Xeno series fan by chance? 'cause talk about a series that is DRENCHED in gnosticism with added touches of Kubrick esthetics and Neon Genesis Evangelion influences to boot

I feel like I do too, sometimes. 🧠

😎👍

Matt? You mean Max?

@@dlbyrd-gasca2730 Thanks 😅

@@MillerTime981 No problemo.👍

Oh dont forget 8

Ironically with all the FFXIV attempts to deconstruct mythology, The Mother Crystal in FFXIV is ended up representing Pistis Sophia's role in FFXIV, just beforehand when a boss actually named Sophia is reduced into a major enemy Also Final Fantasy games will never escape Gnosticism, as Final Fantasy (and SMT/Persona) series relies on breaking the yoke of Fate and corrupt divinities, much like how Sethian Gnostic sects' narratives pertains to go for

What an underutilized and underappreciated game. Still has one of the most impactful deaths in any game imo.

Thank you.

Xenogears sounds like a pretty cool game!👍

I downloaded Xenogears very recently. I am very interested in playing it.
