I'd like to take htis oportunity to say I completed Final Fantasy VIII today with Squall Level 97, Zell Level 89 (Who got compressed through time on Griever Battle) and Rinoa Level 58. I am getting Final Fantasy XI in exactly 8 days and I want to make sure I have finished all of the Final Fantasies before it before I move on to the next Chapter of Final Fantasy.
Here's the games I have and have not finished so far:
Final Fantasy - Complete
Final Fantasy II - Not Started
Final Fantasy III - Not Complete, Saved just before Jinn
Final Fantasy IV - Complete
Final Fantasy V - Complete
Final Fantasy VI - Not Complete, Saved at Desert Castle
Final Fantasy VII - Complete
Final Fantasy VIII - Complete
Final Fantasy IX - Complete
Final Fantasy X - Complete
Final Fantasy X-2 - Complete

So I have a week to finish 3 games, which I think I can tackle. Wish me luck guys and Gals!

That's all very nice and I think everyone will agree with me when I say that no one really gives a fuck. Try making posts that mean something to other people.

Hehehe, glad to see everyone's as nice and friendly as they used to be

was it the first time you completed 8?

you mean posts that mean something to you?

Silly little moron. Did you not notice that the thread is nothing but an attention-seeking waste of space that makes no attempt to spark discussion?

Prak, not that you'll care, but I consistantly LOL at your posts.
It's honesty at its best.

Good, now try completing the game with all characters at level 1. Finishing it with your main character at level 97 is not worth creating a topic over.

as a matter of fact i did...but you dont seem to realise what i was doing....i was actually trying to make it a little more ......jazzy - if you like!

I don't really care.

But welcome to ffs anyways.

Kind of hard to beat a game at level one when all or your characters start at around level 6-7. Not that levels matter that much in FFVIII anyway. Now a "No Junction" challenge would be something to brag about.

ON TOPIC: Considering FFII, FFIII and FFVI are all 20-30 hour games, I can't see you finishing all of them in a week. But hey, prove me wrong.

Then the lowest levels possible. ;) The no-junction challenge is a good idea too, since that's the most broken aspect of the game.

Finish ff6

FFXI has nothing to do with other FF games. You don't need to beat other FF games just so you can 'catch up on the story'.

I'd like to take "htis opportunity" to move this thread to General Final Fantasy, although I'm sorely tempted to simply close it...

I vote you should as it serves no purpose of discussion.

I wanna finish FFVIII without summoning. Seems like a decent enough challenge to me. Someone should make a thread about fanmade FF handicaps. Such as the "no sphere grid" one for FFX and the "no junctioning" one for FFVIII

I vote you should as it serves no purpose of discussion.
:) --- Ah but that's the catch, it's out of my hands now, as I don't have any power over the thread anymore as it's not in an area I moderate.

Oh? Judging by your previous post, I assumed you had the 'power'. Fair enough. =)

To irvine.rocky1 yes it was my first time I finished VIII, it was a very good and challenging game

lol good luck "finishing" ffxi before ffxii. I would imagine you would "finish" ffxi around the time ffxviii came out or so.

in FF8, playing with everyone at 100 will be a hell of a lot harder than playing with everyone in their teens or 20's.

i've done it sarah, and it isn't tbh. it's a very easy game all round.

i like the sound of no-junction though.

My first play through I did no junction because I had no idea what in the fuck I was doing, so gg. I win.

It's not hard, btw. Just rely on your summons alot.

you're junctioning a GF though :-*

That doesn't count.

Sure it does, the GF is 'juctioned' to you.

Silly little moron. Did you not notice that the thread is nothing but an attention-seeking waste of space that makes no attempt to spark discussion?

Agreed I don't even know why I'm reading this. I think its because I want to see this dude get torn apart

You're a fuckin arsehole. Contender for dumbass post of the year.

hmm...and here we see turning tables, watch how the guy who wants to see others get "torn apart" actually gets torn apart himself!

Fascinating, isnt it Irvine.rocky?

This guy posts periodically, usually not typing a word himself, instead only quoting others and leaving it at that. But boy when he pulls his finger out the shit sticks to the Inter-web like No-Nails!

Don't agree with me. You're even worse than the dummy I was talking about then, so having you agree with me damages my credibility.

LMAO - Prak has credibility?!?

i know you'll know arnt the bosses relative to your level? like it would be easier to win at level 70 than level 90 because the boss is relative to your level or are the bosses in 8 set at their own levels?

What the fuck?

What the fuck?

Plain as mud I'm afraid!

More like it was completely random and had nothing to do with anything I was talking about. I understood it well enough after I sorted through the awful grammar, but as it has nothing to do with anything I've discussed, I'm not inclined to humor you.

itistheinternetgrammerdoesntreallymatter

you just did humor me btw i just had a good little chuckle

Then ''chuckle'' off!

Grammar matters anytime you're communicating via text with people you don't know. When you use the awful grammar you've shown in a public forum, you might as well be slapping crude cave drawings on the page, since it gives everyone else the impression that you have the mentality of a neanderthal.

why?

i mean honestly what have i done to offend you or prak

i havnt even done anything it is you two who are attacking me

Random nonsense.

Non-aggressive query about random nonsense.


it was plain enough or dont you know as much about the games as you'd like to think?

Personal challenge against my knowledge and/or intelligence.

Looks like you did make the first offense!

it was a question not a statement

i meant no offence

Wow.. lively group.

Kudo's to you OP for finishing VIII. That game is tough and it took me awhile to finish it myself. I never had the patience to play through it again as I did not really like it in the first place.

If you want my honest opinion... I would not waste my time on FFXI. Seriously. It requires much more time than any other MMO IMO. Mainly because you cannot do anything past lvl 10 on your own. You will need a party to do anything. You'll need it to get XP, missions, quests (there is a difference between missions and quests), and other optional and job specific stuff. If you dont' pick the right job, you will more than likely be looking at a good 2-8 hour wait to get a party. Dragoons are looked down upon, White Mages and Red Mages will get a party as soon as they log on, Black Mages can make a party on their own. Paladins will be fighting for parties because people think that Ninja's are better at tanking. Dark Knights will be fighting for parties against Rangers and Samurai's.

If you really wanna waste your time with it, more power to ya, because there are times that I miss the game, but you will not "FINISH" the game ... for probably a couple years. I played for two years before I finally quit and I didn't come close. Just had Dark Knight and Paladin up to lvl 70+.

Thanks for the info Gilthanos, I don't plan to "FINISH XI" for a long while...plus I already gotz a party of 3 cause 2 of my friends are getting it very shortly. If I don't like it thou I can always disable my account and just keep it as part of my collection....THey really should of calle dit "FINAL FANTASY: ONLINE"

the fact you were at level 97 is quite an achievement, if you were at a lower level ie 70 or similar the final boss would have been easier to kill

I was at level 100 going to get Eden, and fight Ultima, but got killed by those swarm of Random Un escapable Battles, that occured even when I had the NO Encounter ability on....strange. But I got killed by Ultimecia...then for the 2nd time in the game Pheonix came and healed me =P And I wooped Ultimecia's Bad Bahind with Lion Heart!!!

Np... it's a real good game please don't get me wrong. I just feel that it's a waste of time because the game is so heavy on the "multiplayer" aspect so much that you can't do jack on your own. Glad that you have 3 people so far, you'll need 6 total to do anything. You'll get the hang of it. I really did enjoy that game. I played it for almsot 3 years. I just got frustrated with the inflation, the greed, the fact that no one really wants to help anyone else, but there are things that I miss about it so much. Weaponskills, Artifact Armor, leveling, damage dealing. Before I had quit the first time I was well known on the Unicorn server and quite popular even though I didn't have a job int he 70's. When i came back there was a whole new breed of players. Alot of my friends had left and greed seemed to have just settled in and no one cared about anything else other than getting those items that were hard to get and DRAMA! I'd always help out folks as much as possible, especially as a Paladin because then people would see that and eventually return the favor. That and it will get you alot of friends. Sometimes it can bite you in the butt though. Just be prepared to be BROKE. I hope they changed the economy alot because items can get pretty expensive. The japanese players are sometimes a pain in the ass to deal with and they generally do not like ot party with Americans because we don't play the same way, but if you got good gear you may just impress them. If a japanese player compliments you... you're now set for japanese parties, they'll come back and get you again because they know they can count on you. That's pretty much the jist of this particular online community.
