Enigma Final Fantasy: FF All-Stars (Cloud Slot Open)

So uh.... Anybody playing that new Kingdom Hearts mobile game? It's actually pretty fun.

@AirBender

I've been playing the Japanese version ever since it came out last year.

*stares at my level 200++ avatar smugly*

Currently Zootopia event, which is eh for me. My favorite was the New Year event. The costume was just *_*

Crashing my patience.

Enigma Final Fantasy: FF All-Stars (Cloud Slot Open)

<Snipped quote by tsukune>

I'm a little bit surprised I'm first in that posting order; I was waiting for more reactions from other characters that went before me (like Jihl and Edward), since I was one of the gents who provoked a large reaction and it would be easier to write if I knew how they acknowledged me. But if you're all waiting on me to post for some reason, then I'll try and crank something out eventually (I think I've been hit with a large writer's block again). I just don't quite understand the logic of this order, is all.

@Penultimate_Pi

Eh. What I mean is the order of events happened in the IC, not your upcoming posting order lol.

There we go, finally got around to posting.

@AirBender

Yes people I'm still waiting for ya'll

Enigma Final Fantasy: FF All-Stars (Cloud Slot Open)

No worries guys. As stated in the TL;DR, real life takes priority over a shared hobby.

@Flamelord I'm feeling a bit out of the loop- are we all still doing a collab post or something? Because I can't reach the etherpad and I was going to wait for some of the other people to respond to Jecht's yelling in-character first.

@Penultimate_Pi

Regarding collab, I'm under the impression that most of you guys preferred to do the solo back-and-forth posting for now, which was why I said I'd give you all some time to make a full-post respond to some of the character reactions so far (in particular Jecht, Faris and Underfoot, in IC order) first before I put up the GM part.

B!tchfest: a healthy release for our non-roleplay annoyances.

@Fabricant451 I do respect that K-drama is your "lifeblood", so don't worry about that. :)

I just wish that the broadcasting channels in my region would diversify the types of shows aired here instead of forcing everyone to watch the mainstreams only (which tends to be similar premises back to back...all the more pointless). Instead of letting me to give K-dramas a chance, it's making me annoyed and more reluctant to watch any, yeah.

Cara's Originally Titled OoC Hangout Thread ♥ (Still)

@Carantathraiel I am back to say I miss you so much

Anyway, the crazy weather and air pollution here in my region haven't been kind to my sensitive nose - been feeling like shit the past couple of days.

Doesn't help that it's hot like hell too.

(And my class starts next week, eh.)

B!tchfest: a healthy release for our non-roleplay annoyances.

@tsukune I haven't watched TV in a long time too but don't be hating on K-Dramas those are my actual lifeblood. Yes, they all have the same types of scenarios but dammit they're adorable.

@Fabricant451

I don't want to hate K-dramas but...

I want some diversity - like some Hong Kong crime goodness? Those short Japanese ones? Or the Chinese historical harem insanity? Why only show K-drama?

Those serious historical K-dramas are the only kind I'm willing to give them a shot. No offense, but personally most of those set in modern times feel just like some badly-written mushy shoujo manga or even those unnecessarily long-winded Taiwanese family soap operas with "better"-looking (surgically-made beauty) cast to me, sorry.

(Also, K-pop fangirls in my region are very scary...)

B!tchfest: a healthy release for our non-roleplay annoyances.

That awkward moment when my friends are giving me a look of horror because I said I haven't watched any TV for a long long time.

Like, the kind of shits they air here in my region are all Korean melodramatic soap operas full of Sue-ish characters, cringe-worthy script, mediocre acting... And they all boil down to the same type of premise over and over again.

How about no thanks.

Enigma Final Fantasy: FF All-Stars (Cloud Slot Open)

Sorry for the silence guys. Been feeling like shit because of the crazy weather and air pollution and all (doesn't help that I was born with sensitive nose).

Anyway, first up is a roll call:
@Penultimate_Pi
@AirBender
@Flamelord
@Fabricant451
@Bounce
@Grasshopper

I'm fine with everyone taking this RP slowly (to work on a quality post, of course). I'll wait for everyone to post your responses to Bounce's before I put up the GM bit.

Side note: Kingdom Hearts Unchained (mobile app game) is finally localized! :D Might not be everyone's cup of tea at first glance because of the storybook-like art style; it's about the first Keyblade War, which will be tied into the upcoming KH 3.

The Great 'What's The Best Final Fantasy?' Debate Thread.

(I'm on mobile now so I'm just gonna make a quick two-cents/random rant. Might do a full post of me bullshitting all out when my fever is gone.)

VII: the main game was good in its own ways, but what makes me truly get into this game's world is Crisis Core. Zack is a much more enjoyable main character than Cloud (my personal opinion, so get lost and don't flame me like a childish brat yo). The downside is that Genesis is a tad underdeveloped, merely as a supporting character to develop Sephiroth's edgy backstory.

X: No seriously why do people love this game? Boring plot, cringe-worthy characters - and getting trolled that Tidus/Jecht were from a fake, dream world that no longer existed. Also, if Sephiroth's mother complex is annoying, Seymour is no better with his obsession for Yuna (on top of the Sin crap - hell, this dude is creepy. He's everywhere!).

X-2: Square's version of Charlie's Angels. 'Nuff said. Gameplay is kinda fun but other than that eh.

XIII: the plot, the characters, the world were good (save for the ending) - but got dragged down by its horrible gameplay system that made the game unnecessarily linear (and months of rage-quitting lol).

Type-0: probably my top favorite FF game ever. The premise might make you go "eh" at first glance - school setting, teens thrown into war, blah blah...but it's more than meets the eye. Class Zero weren't mere students, but special children gathered by a goddess for a cruel experiment to force open the gate to Etro, and the experiment had been repeated for over tens of thousands of times. The power of crystals make the people forget the fallen ones, and so no one can feel sad and cry for them; each time Class Zero choose to become Agito, the Lulusath soldiers massacred every living being across Orience and the experiment fails, resetting the world for another round...

Yes, I'm a sucker for fucked-up stuff like this.

And it has an even more heart-wrenching ending than X.

Gameplay wise, it steers away from the traditional turn-based type in previous FF games and is instead fast-paced real-time battles - for those who hate this, get used to it because the upcoming XV would be similar.

Mobius: currently Japan-exclusive mobile game that probably would never get localized. Anyway, for now I feel like it's paying tribute to the very first FF game (some major characters and Warrior of Light stuffs), even if the plot isn't anywhere similar. It has such awesome graphics that it's hard to believe that this is a mobile app game not for console.

(I know it's not a Kingdom Hearts thread but I'll defend this game - not because of the Disney shit.)
