Yes, I suppose its a fine bit of foreshadowing. Just seems like a strange way to do it. It also didn't have as big an effect since most RPGs NEVER kill off any of the main characters so I just assumed that she'd come back later on in the story (after all, Cloud sure does!). I guess I was more shocked at the END of the game, when I realized we really wouldn't be getting her back.

I dunno...I was way more impressed with the storytelling in FF6, FF9 and FFTactics than in this one. Even FF8 and FFX-2 had way more likeable characters.

It's rare but it does offer great plot twists. I mean they did it in Legend of Dragoon, kinda did it in FFX at the end. Plus in games like Suikoden and FFT you can lose characters but not storywise and the character depth is not great.

FFIX's storyline was simple, a little too simple for me. FF8's was way more confusing then FF7, not sure how you prefer it over FF7. FFT's was a masterpiece ahead of it's time in games. Sadly not a lot of people like it because of difficulty and graphics.

Sorry for memberating, but what's all this got to do with Final Fantasy III?

Nobody asked you Mike

Besides it's about the best FF game, we were having an argument between this and FF7 on being the best. So we went from there, it hasn't gotten too off topic considering we are breaking down the aspects of each game, more notably FF7.

re: is this the best final fantasy game

Well I think FF4 (FF2) is the best one. That was my first SNES RPG and it was great then and it is still great today.

Hey I thought you told me that the first FF was your first, when I posted that picture of me with FF and Dragon Warrior.

I said FF4 was my first Super Nintendo RPG - for Nintendo it was Final Fantasy and Dragon Warrior.

re: is this the best final fantasy game

Oh okay, I misread it. Still it was a fine game, many chose it as one of the best, I certainly enjoyed it. Still I just found FF7 overall better with depth previously unseen in an RPG.

re: is this the best final fantasy game

I've never played FF7 because I could never find it... No stores ever carried it, but I've got FF8 and that game is fantastic - great storyline and great gameplay! I even got the maximum Gil.

Yes it is, it's depth is great especially in it's story and gameplay. It is very unique, and has a great cast of characters. It sucks you never got to play it when it came out, at the time it was the best RPG I had ever played and still is today.

re: is this the best final fantasy game

I never played it when it came out because I didn't own a Playstation console then... In the 1997/98/99 time period, I was an N64 gamer.

It's not that great. Don't believe the hype. I liked Part 8 WAY more. I rank it last out of all the FF games I've played.

Check, Page 2 of this thread, around five posts down. It's the long one. I rank all the FF games I've played and I put FF7 in dead last. It's really the only FF game that actually pissed me off as I played it.

I'll admit though...I'm in the minority when I say this, though I'd say at least 75% of the folks who hail FF7 as the best ever never played any of the older ones and doesn't know where this genre came from. I'm old school (I still have a working Intellivision) so maybe that's why.
