Final Fantasy II
Hey I finished Final Fantasy, finally, and defeated Choas ending some weird time loop thing and somehow the four elements are involved. Ok, I don't really understand the ending and I wasn't paying that close attention to the final screen.
So on to Final Fantasy II, which is cool because I've never played it before and it never came out in the US for the NES. The graphics are updated from the original version to super nintendo quality, which is nice. The game itself is pretty similar to FF1, but there are no levels to gain by killing monsters. Your attack strength increases from attacking (go figure), and you gain endurance by getting damaged. As some attributes increase, others will decrease and your characters can sort of evolve into magic users or fighters depending on what you do with them in the game. One thing thats funny though is that one of the best ways to increse your hit points is to attack your own characters. Taking a quick swipe at your buddy during an easy battle almost guarantee's increased stats. I've always had fun doing this sort of thing in RPG's, but now it actually helps!
So far in the story there is a Black Knight who is taking over cities and destroyed the main characters home-town. You join the resistance to help take him down. My characters are still pretty weak, but I 've got some good hours of my life to waste. The plan is to play through the final fantasy games in order 1-6. I'll skip 3 because it was a gameboy game. (I'm using the Japanese numbering because the american games go from 1,2,3,7)
