Favourite Final Fantasy Locations Game: Nominations

Hey everyone, I’ve decided to do the locations of Final Fantasy into a game. Similar to the Characters game, I’ve chosen 9 places from each FF numbered title and Tactics. This leaves 135 spaces, so it’s quite a big game again.

I’ve rounded up 9 places from each game below. Some of the games, like the earlier titles, the online games and Tactics, may have crap suggestions and I’m sorry if that’s the case, I’m not as familiar with those as I am with the modern titles.

So similar once again to the Characters nominations, if you think a location deserves an entry, tell me what it is, what game it is, and what location should be removed in its place. Example below:

FF7: Kalm to replace Cosmo Canyon

With that in mind, what do you think of the suggestions above? If you disagree with any, let me know in the format above. I’ll keep thise open for the week, and if the reception is okay I’ll start this weekend, otherwise I’ll start the weekend after. Thanks for any support! 🙂

I wouldn’t really include the Empyreal Paradox from FFXI, as it’s just a battlefield, and not an actual location (it’s the final battlefield for the Chains of Promathia expansion for those who were wondering.) Instead, I think Tu’lia (http://finalfantasy.wikia.com/wiki/Tu%27Lia), ala ‘Sky’ as it’s known to FFXI players would probably be a much better choice. It’s one of my favourite locations in FFXI too. 😉

Also the FF Wiki is incorrect with the name of the galka’s home island in FFXI – Kuzotz is simply the region name for the area in Conquest, where as the actual name of the island in all official documentation is Zepwell Island (I guess the former is probably the name that the humes of Bastok call it, where as the later is the old galkan name.)

FFXI: Empyreal Paradox > Tu’lia
FFXI: Kuzotz > Zepwell Island

That right? 🙂

My twocents, for now:

FFXII: Estersand to replace Sky Fortress Bahamut (you’re not really at the Sky Fortress for very long, it’s not an interesting "location" per se, although I’ll admit it’s a cool ship in the cinematics).

Also, what is Dream’s End in FFX?

Thanks Olde, I’ll swap in for the Dalmasca Estersand.

Dream’s End is where you go against Braska’s Final Aeon, before Yu Yevon. I can change it to the entire Within Sin area, it’s up to you guys. 🙂

Gotcha. I have a few new recommendations.

FFX: Omega Ruins to replace Bevelle.
FFX: Within Sin to replace Dream’s End.
FFVIII: Balamb (city) to replace D-District Prison.
FFVIII: Fisherman’s Horizon to replace Edea’s Orphanage.

I’ve changed those now on my spreadsheet… with the exception of Edea’s Orphanage. Personally I think the Orphanage should stay in place of FH, but if other people agree with you I’ll gladly change it.

How about:
FFXII – Salikawood to replace Giza Plains
FFVII – Wutai to replace Gaea’s Cliff
FFIX – Invincible to replace Crystal World?
FFT – Limberry Castle instead Golgollada Gallows

I’ve changed all those on my spreadsheet bar the Invincible. Isn’t it more of the imagery than it being a great location, the ship itself is barely seen apart from on Disc 4. Unless people disagree with me of course?

Speaking of the Crystal World I’m thinking of changing it to Memoria in general. Anyone else’s thoughts?

Memoria in general instead of Crystal World.
I also agree with Fisherman’s Horizon over Edea’s Orphanage.

Okay, I’ll swap FH for the Orphanage.

Anymore changes? Particularly the earlier games? I’ll start the game in a few days if there’s no response. 🙂
