Every Final Fantasy story is set in a different world. This of course means, every compilation features different locations and environments. The environments in every Final Fantasy are thus different from each other, as they reflect the themes and ideas of the story, as well as the emotions involved in the story at the time you encounter them in a game for the first time. Of course this is helped with the oh-so-magic use of music...
Continuing with our Top 5 Season We've compiled our top 5 iconic Final Fantasy locations which can be found following. Do you agree with our choices? If not what would you change in the list? (Please note this article contains Spoilers)
Clive actor Ben Starr plays kiss, marry, kill with Final Fantasy characters, and decides to off Cid from Final Fantasy 12.
Ew VO actors and their cringe core. Fiverr voice actors could out perform this chump.
The latest update for Final Fantasy XI Online, the 'November Update', is now live across all platforms where the game is playable.
Can't believe this game is still getting updates 21 years after it launched. That's crazy! XI remains the only main numbered FF that I haven't played.
At the time, it was an amazing game if you had a good Linkshell and/or friend to play with.
A MMOROG that actually required teamplay to be played.
Easily one of the best games ever. As you said, it had the caveat of NEEDING a good group to play with, but I've never had memories/experiences like that in ANY game since.
I've been chasing that experience since I stopped playing it, and the closest I've come to is FFXIV. And even that is still vastly different.
Played the shit of this 20 years ago. Getting the Serket ring was epic. Idk how many mornings we spent camping before we finally got the pull and I won the roll upon defeat. It was great solo, but you really need a good link/squad for some of the notorious monsters....
@Seraphim
I loved those camping hours for every NM of interest.
Leaping Lizzy or what was it's name. Damn, so many days and nights 😅
And first time you got attacked by the Kraken on the boat, omg...
To get more engagement with his article, and drive clicks. DUH!
(Thanks, I'll go ahead and report that).
Wish they'd release it for PS4, 5, Xboxes and Switch - it ran on ps2 and still works on potato PCs so should run well everywhere
Take it down the memory lane with this ultimate list of the best PlayStation 2 games of all time. Just the best of the best right here.
It's so disappointing that to this day, I have not seen a game match what BLACK offers in an FPS.
Shame isn't it. I thought we'd be at a point of destructible backgrounds, objects, pyrotechnics etc in shooters. I sold many a copy in the demo unit when I managed a franchise Game Crazy back then. But I stopped playing shooters because they didn't evolve. Heavy weapon. Shoot a wall or glass. Nothing happens. Lol. Except for Killzone 2. I enjoyed that.
But then I woke and remembered it's EA. EA didn't care really. They just wanted to kill competition from Criterion and Burnout. And own Renderware to profit from as many developers used that engine. Only thing was that developers ran as fast as they could away from EA to Unreal Engine and its pop in and Vaseline graphics. Shame on EA. And then they bought Dice for Frostbite. Evil busters.
Anyway, too many PS2 games to count. Some of my personal faves being DMC, Genji, Bujingai, Blood Will Tell, Onimusha, Way of the Samurai, Japanese Berserk, Japanese Macross game that blew away the US Robotech game, RAD, Castlevania Lament of Innocence.... there's just too many. Let me stop. Lol
Code Veronica
Dead or Alive 2 Hardcore
The Getaway
Time Crisis 3
Killzone
Mark of Kri
SSX
are some of my all times favorites missing on that list
I've always Saud I'm not a fan of fps much , there's been some I really like and thought were really dope. Black falls into that category.
The greatest console of all time !!!!
The last console from when gaming was pure, games didn't take 5 years to release, no online only, no half finished games, no mtx.
Ps2 was just banger after banger after banger.
It will always be my favourite.
why are there so many top five final fantasy lists?
FF died the moment FFXII was released. Since then, I haven't followed much FF news or any editorials for that matter.
for me,im a HUUUUGE final fantasy X and 7 fan of the series.... i never got a chance to finish 12 becouse at the time i was into nothing but shooting games so it was hard.
but to me,all the final fantasy worlds up to ffX were AMAZING in almost every aspect.
though iMO,i loved ffx's Story ALOT and drew me in emotionally toards the characters and the world and lives they lived.... now THATS wut final fantasies were allways about... visuals were the weakest point but wut made FF is the compelling stories that drew peeps in.
anywho,the last 2 locations on the list are by far the best... of course midgar is gunna be up there.. Midgar is the power-plant and electricity to square-enix and its continued success and popularity.
I may sound a-bit soppy but i really liked the music at Mt Gagazet,
Oh and i also like Balamb Garden in Final Fantasy 8
1. Midgar... When I heard about FF7 I was still very young... Maybe around 10 years old... I got a postcard through the door from Sony with a picture of Midgar on it... That one picture made me want Final Fantasy 7... Midgar is quite simply amazing
2. Zanarkand... Everything about Zanarkand is EPIC... The music is beautiful as you run through the ruins... The art work is outstanding... Its a high quality place that tugs your heart strings and makes you feel like you actually know the place yourself and can believe you are there... I grinded so much xp there simply because I liked the music
3. Dollet... http://uk.youtube.com/watch...
I simply love it for that cutscene... Introduced me to my first real task on FF8 (obviously after I got Ifrit)... To be honest the spider was also a lot of fun... But I LOVE the music... Its so BADASS!!!! JUST LISTEN TO IT!!! ARGH THAT CUTSCENE IS AMAZING!
But yeah theres loads of places... I love all the places in all the FF games I have played... They have a distinct quality about them which puts their game worlds above the competition (although Nintendo maybe match their quality with Hyrule from the LOZ games)
