Forum Rules (Everyone Must Read!!!)

1] What you CAN NOT post.

You agree, through your use of this service, that you will not use this forum to post any material which is:
- abusive
- vulgar
- hateful
- harassing
- personal attacks
- obscene

You also may not:
- post images that are too large (max is 500*500px)
- post any copyrighted material unless the copyright is owned by you or cited properly.
- post in UPPER CASE, which is considered yelling
- post messages which insult the Armenians, Armenian culture, traditions, etc
- post racist or other intentionally insensitive material that insults or attacks another culture (including Turks)

The Ankap thread is excluded from the strict rules because that place is more relaxed and you can vent and engage in light insults and humor. Notice it's not a blank ticket, but just a place to vent. If you go into the Ankap thread, you enter at your own risk of being clowned on.
What you PROBABLY SHOULD NOT post...
Do not post information that you will regret putting out in public. This site comes up on Google, is cached, and all of that, so be aware of that as you post. Do not ask the staff to go through and delete things that you regret making available on the web for all to see because we will not do it. Think before you post!


2] Use descriptive subject lines & research your post. This means use the SEARCH.

This reduces the chances of double-posting and it also makes it easier for people to see what they do/don't want to read. Using the search function will identify existing threads on the topic so we do not have multiple threads on the same topic.

3] Keep the focus.

Each forum has a focus on a certain topic. Questions outside the scope of a certain forum will either be moved to the appropriate forum, closed, or simply be deleted. Please post your topic in the most appropriate forum. Users that keep doing this will be warned, then banned.

4] Behave as you would in a public location.

This forum is no different than a public place. Behave yourself and act like a decent human being (i.e. be respectful). If you're unable to do so, you're not welcome here and will be made to leave.

5] Respect the authority of moderators/admins.

Public discussions of moderator/admin actions are not allowed on the forum. It is also prohibited to protest moderator actions in titles, avatars, and signatures. If you don't like something that a moderator did, PM or email the moderator and try your best to resolve the problem or difference in private.

6] Promotion of sites or products is not permitted.

Advertisements are not allowed in this venue. No blatant advertising or solicitations of or for business is prohibited.
This includes, but not limited to, personal resumes and links to products or
services with which the poster is affiliated, whether or not a fee is charged
for the product or service. Spamming, in which a user posts the same message repeatedly, is also prohibited.

7] We retain the right to remove any posts and/or Members for any reason, without prior notice.


- PLEASE READ -

Members are welcome to read posts and though we encourage your active participation in the forum, it is not required. If you do participate by posting, however, we expect that on the whole you contribute something to the forum. This means that the bulk of your posts should not be in "fun" threads (e.g. Ankap, Keep & Kill, This or That, etc.). Further, while occasionally it is appropriate to simply voice your agreement or approval, not all of your posts should be of this variety: "LOL Member213!" "I agree."
If it is evident that a member is simply posting for the sake of posting, they will be removed.


8] These Rules & Guidelines may be amended at any time. (last update September 17, 2009)

If you believe an individual is repeatedly breaking the rules, please report to admin/moderator.

    Final Fantasy Thread

    I noticed there was no thread on this, so here it goes

    When was the last time you played one of them?
    Which one is your favorite and why?
    Which one's musical score is your favorite?
    Who are some of your favorite all time characters?



    In my case, I've been playing ff6 lately.

    My favorite one is still Final Fantasy Tactics. The characters are more human than in other final fantasy games imo, as they are all embroiled in a period of political turmoil between princes, the Church and the disenfranchised knights in a setting that seems to mimic Medieval Europe very well. Of course the Zodiacs (espers) put a dramatic spin on all these all too human pursuits, and so you get a classic Final fantasy game as a result.

    I also love the elaborate, very personalized battling system where you can pretty much do anything and everything to your own characters or the enemies, and as they gain experience, you can make them follow paths that lead them to customizable character classes with unique special abilities and features that they have to learn step by step. You can poach monsters and turn them into items, you can collect treasures and view areas that seem to have connections to other final fantasy games and it plays an interesting reference to how much the world can transform after eons pass, with humans still around with the reoccurring presence of magic.

    My favorite musical score is probably the one for Final Fantasy Tactics

    My favorite characters are Cloud, Reno and Rude (ff7), Ramza, Delita (fft), and Kefka (ff6, though I haven't finished the game yet)

    It's been a while. A few years at least. It was probably FFX.

    FFVI. Because of Kefka.

      Kefka is the only character in ff6 with an audible laugh: "woot woot woot woot woot!" and he looks hilarious when he laughs slowly in that miniature character of him

      But seriously, he's f***in evil and will kill or use anybody just for power, I prefer him over Sephiroth from ff7, who's usually the all-time favorite bad guy for many people. Sephiroth is a know-it-all who sees himself as a higher form of life that just goes on a manipulative kind of rampage, but Kefka is just so entertaining because he starts off as a not so influential character, screws over and manipulates a multitude of people, has total total lack of concern for the value of life, laughs all the time at the pains and misfortunes of others... And god, he even manages to destroy the world (or at least disfigure it beyond belief). You know, in some ways, he's a lot like the Joker in The Dark Knight

        Yes, Sephiroth and VII are always cited as the favorites.

        Kefka's laugh is awesome. And what about his final from? Pretty crazy.

        So what's your favorite non-Square video game? Mine is Ocarina of Time.

                  It's a series where they start from scratch each time with characters, setting, the world map, plot, etc... except there are reoccurring aspects in every game that are trademarks of final fantasy, namely the use of magic and espers/summons, the active time battle system, the names of the items, chocobos and moogles (these are friendly monsters in the game) and a multitude of reoccurring monsters, weapons, armour, accessories, etc...

                  Anyway, I started off with ff9, and I highly recommend it as a starter, try it out

                    It was my first game for PS too and I just recently played it again.
