Ramza Beoulve: He saved the world and didn't get a "thank you" from anyone. Instead he was branded as a heretic, his brothers disowned him, his best friend took credit for all of his actions and he didn't even get a proper burial or funeral. It's easy to do the right thing when adulation, fanfare and "getting the girl" are associated with it. It's much less easy to do the right thing when there are no rewards involved, people will spit at your feet rather than thank you and you're forced to sacrifice everything except your principles.
Ramza wasn't the most powerful or handsome of the FF protagonists. He didn't have a cool airship, he didn't have a unique weapon or a fancy hair color. He wasn't involved in a romantic love story and he doesn't get a glorious ceremony at the conclusion of the game. He didn't have any prolonged inner conflict or mysterious backstory. He was just a normal guy in way over his head that wouldn't compromise his principles no matter how chaotic things got.
That is what makes Ramza my favorite protagonist of any RPG ever made.

So here I am
growing older all the time
looking older all the time
feeling younger in my mind
Good times. Fuck, best times probably.

For me specifically, it was Zero's entrance later in this level (with that rockin' chip-guitar intro) and later on (spoilers) Zero's sacrifice.
Anything in the game stand out to you at the moment as an issue? I know the job system grind can turn some off...Not sure... A combination of things I think.. The music seems horribly repetitive and uninspiring, and the art style.. albeit good, it's a bit too 'cute' to take as serious as the story seems to be.
That was not the response I expected. I’ve always taken it for granted that people consider the soundtrack a standout of the generation (I know it’s one of my personal favorites).Anything in the game stand out to you at the moment as an issue?

Downloading it again in my phone... Now that I think about it, I should maybe consider getting the PS1 version instead due to save states.. :thinking

i know the trilogy isn't super popular here, but for me it's one of the standouts in the entire meduim. EA needs to pull their head out of their ass and make them available again.https://www.humblebundle.com/store/mass-effect-trilogy ?

Ah, I remember the slow down now. Had the same issue with TO:LUCT. I need to find that patch then. Good call. Thanks!Anything in the game stand out to you at the moment as an issue?

Oh no. Please don't do the mobile port. The touch controls are horrible.
Just download PPSSPP to your phone, get the PSP port and patch it with the slowdown fix.

The sheer destruction. Finally started churning my young mind on the devastating power of nuclear weapons.
