Can I beat the king before he transformes into wofl?
-
@themadmallard Yes, I think we're both aware of that: Sure, the original Final Fantasy had a War-Mech and an Airship; Final Fantasy II(IV) had the Tower/Giant of Bab-il,a Hovercraft, Airship and a Giant Whale that took you to the moon; Secret of Mana had a Mech Rider and the Mana Fortress but they also had castles, small towns, and "primitive" weapons.
There's a difference between a little bit of technology mixed in a Medieval setting and a game that is purely "new age." Gun-Sword? Yikes.

...do you guys realise that in the first Final Fantasy in 1987, you climb a tower, use a transporter to go into a space station, and fight a nuclear powered mech/robot? And fly around in a steam-punkish airship with propellers?
Square games after Rad Racer pretty much ALWAYS had at least a little high-technology angle. So has almost every MANA game and SAGA/ Final Fantasy Legend game. ;p

@AceAileron Sigh..total grammar fail on the above post. You get my point, however.
-
@Krikilrath Yeah. Though you bring up a good point. Square and Enix merged in 2003 but look at what games were put out prior to then:
Square: Really has too many good games to list. I think to get a grasp of all their amazing times, look at all the games that were put out prior to 1997. You had some great games between '97-2003 but their best came out in the mid 90's.
Enix had this, Illusion of Gaia, Soul Blazer, Ogre Battle, 7th Saga, Paladin's Quest, Brain Lord, Robotrek, etc.
Sigh.

You're right. It was actually Enix, before they merged with Squaresoft.
My bad.
-
I agree, but I don't think this game is Square.

magical stardust is the bomb

You can spend the seven dollars this game more than deserves and download it from the Wii Virtual Console.
I miss when Square games were actually heavily fantasy based and not this technology-and-magic-in-harmony bullshit they're doing with Final Fantasy.
Also I miss when Square games were actually good.
