Looking forward to getting this one tonight! I fucking love FF4.

Its fucking widescreen... never have I seen this happen

E-DuB · « **Reply #4 on:** June 01, 2009, 05:43:22 PM »

So how did they release it? Is it the first few chapters or is it the whole game?

demi · « **Reply #5 on:** June 01, 2009, 05:46:27 PM »

It's just one piece of it. There's another piece - Rydia's Tale for 300 points. I'm hoping that gets dumped too.

How's the battle/ game speed? Is there any type of lag?

Trent Dole · « **Reply #8 on:** June 01, 2009, 07:13:42 PM »

ohmyfuckinggod. Knabbing a points card for this tomorrow.

Bebpo · « **Reply #13 on:** June 02, 2009, 05:08:57 PM »

What's the release schedule normally? 1 chapter a week? 1 chapter a month?

Trent Dole · « **Reply #14 on:** June 02, 2009, 06:00:23 PM »

A couple chapters every month. Whole thing is ultimately 3700 points.

demi · « **Reply #15 on:** June 02, 2009, 11:01:17 PM »

Just finished the first chapter - took me about 7:30 gametime. This game is so awesome. I installed Rydia's story. You load the main one, then you can load the different stories from there. I dont know if it transfers your items and stats and shit though.

About to try it now

demi · « **Reply #16 on:** June 02, 2009, 11:09:10 PM »

Ok when the credits finish you can save your clear data, which lets you import your stats/items to other stories

You can reload this data and it places you back outside and I guess you can grind if you want? I dunno

edit:

WTF the sprites got downgraded. They are back to FF4 type, unlike the main's FF6 style

edit2:

NVM That was just a flashback, before Ceodore was born. Now it is regular again

demi · « **Reply #17 on:** June 02, 2009, 11:23:38 PM »

Ok, the DLC stories are completely separate it seems. I guess the items you have etc will be carried over to the second (?) half of the main story. The DLC stories are just side-stories but part of the same dilemma. But apparently you can import all your data from he separate stories in the final 800 point chunk when it all comes together.

It works like this-

Initial:
Prologue - Ceodore - Kain = 800 points

Tales:
Rydia, Yang, Palom, Edge, Porom, Edward, the Moon = 300 each

End:
Semi-final - Final = 800 points

Apparently there is a bonus dungeon/boss as well in the first 800point game. You talk to Namingway in Baron Inn.

Also, saves are SEPARATE so if you buy Rydia's chapter DO NOT OVERWRITE your original

ROFL, the entire game has been cracked. The entire game is available for download without having to wait. Yessss

edit: nvm i found it. awesome!!

demi · « **Reply #26 on:** June 03, 2009, 02:06:38 AM »

You pay 300 points for each

Welp, time to play some FF4

demi · « **Reply #27 on:** June 03, 2009, 02:07:44 AM »

GAF THIS PAPANGUS

DJ_Tet · « **Reply #28 on:** June 03, 2009, 02:12:40 AM »

Damn that's hot. I want.

demi · « **Reply #29 on:** June 03, 2009, 02:17:42 AM »

I'm starting from Rydia's tale so I can't really tell if it's the entire game or not

Jansen · « **Reply #30 on:** June 03, 2009, 02:19:31 AM »

i was going to wait until all the stories had been released before playing this. guess i don't have to wait any longer!

demi · « **Reply #31 on:** June 03, 2009, 02:56:48 AM »

Confirming this is the entire game. When you select "The Crystals" it lets you import data from any completed story.

SantaC · « **Reply #32 on:** June 03, 2009, 09:24:40 AM »

what kind of shit is this? It is an awful idea to hack a rpg into pieces and release them separately.

the new FF6 style sprites look HOT, they were created by Kazuko Shibuya who did the original sprites for FF1-6 on NES/SNES btw (and also designed the blocks in Yosumin)

Wow, Palom, Porom, and Edward don't look like such weenie bitches anymore.

demi · « **Reply #35 on:** June 04, 2009, 11:40:30 PM »

Just finished Palom's story. Best one so far. You get to fight the mysterious girl and Palom is all AWESOME BITCH BANG PARTICLE BOMB

Just played a bit of it tonight, this game is awesome... though the recycling is a bit out of hand, it's been so long since I played FF4 that I don't care. And I don't mind hearing that amazing music again...
