    Stranger of Paradise: Final Fantasy Origin

    The book of CHAOS has arrived today. In the section about the Lufenian reports, there's some meta text about the collaborator. :mon: "The collaborator who sowed the seeds of the Stranger Plan has been advising the Lufenians, demanding energy from them in return. The identity of this...

    I appreciate the person saying "[for that price,] you could have 32 Lucarios" lol That said: At 600 pieces worldwide, and with FF6's fan base likely being in the 30 - 50 age range, I can see this instantly selling out the minute it goes available for pre-order. Meanwhile, I attempted to ask...

    What are your favorite and least favorite Final Fantasy games?

    It's not quite the same, but NEO: Twewy also had a keyword-based system where you could talk to NPCs, learn words from them, then use the words you learned to suggest things (via psychic powers) to other npcs. :hohum:

    Stranger of Paradise: Final Fantasy Origin

    The story boards for the ending don't really show anything new - the text on the right of them is the dialogue for the scene. During the script for the ending, it mentions that jack's threat to lufenia ("don't touch Cornelia again you chucklefucks!") is supposed to be an allusion to ff1 about...

    Stranger of Paradise: Final Fantasy Origin

    Large image spam time: When I saw that trailer, I was half-amused and half-delirious - it DID seem to fit pretty well in the trailer, but also - what made them choose it? Wasn't really sure if it was something that had been decided pretty early on (which turned out to be the case), or someone...

    What are your favorite and least favorite Final Fantasy games?

    Liked 6 / 7 / Tactics. Hated 8 and the Stormblood xpac of FF14. Never played 3 or 11. Pretty neutral on the rest.

    Stranger of Paradise: Final Fantasy Origin

    From the script book, everyone's canon ages: Jack: 32 Ash: 28 Jed: 26 Neon: 18 Sophia: 37 Astos: N/A Bikke: 40 Sarah: 19 Mia: 12 King 56 Queen: 43 Lagone: 46 I can no longer hate on Nomura, knowing that he's willing to draw lady RPG characters who are older than 20 and even have realistic...

    Significant Differences Between English and Japanese

    Oh nooo I'm not saying that the "swear an oath" part is wrong or anything lol. The JP dialogue is like, Biggs observes that Cloud has never modded the Buster Sword, Cloud gets defensive and says he doesn't need to juice up his weapon etc, and Biggs reacts to him and goes, "Is that some kinda...

    Browsing through the script book while playing the game, and I can tell the intro to the game was modified / changed.

    Significant Differences Between English and Japanese

    Imo, the "on that sword" part is that person's mis-interpretation of whatever the other person told them. The difference being "swore an oath on that sword" is saying that Biggs is suggesting Cloud has sworn something but is not saying what he swore. But contextually, the JP dialogue is just...

    Stranger of Paradise: Final Fantasy Origin

    Oh shit, I'm 1 of 17905 physical JP PS5 copies. :desu: And you've all probably heard this before, but "being on a handheld" means a lot for JP game sales, as does "being on the PC" for the west.

    Stranger of Paradise: Final Fantasy Origin

    CHAOS is here. To my great amusement, I opened the script book and the very first thing I see is Jack's profile with the first word being CHAOS. His very first line in Japanese in the actual script part also starts with CHAOS. Amazing purchase ty square.

    Stranger of Paradise: Final Fantasy Origin

    There are things that are clearly silly and are meant to be found silly ("Jack grunting at everything", for example), but the plot and the world building is played straight. Getting further in the story also reveals why some earlier conversations might have felt "off". The interviews with the...
