May. 18th, 2011 07:56 amDay 03 – Your favourite Final Fantasy theme/song.
"Terra's Theme" from FFVI, also known as the World of Balance Map music. And the intro. And one of the main themes. This song can still give me chills, and I also once owned like a dozen really sweet techno remixes, they were awesome.
Day 04 – Your favourite Final Fantasy party from your favourite game.
HA! This is when I start to WIN by having lots of favorites, right?
FFIV: I'm partial to the final party: Cecil, Rosa, Kain, Rydia, Edge. It's balanced and ass-kicking. I especially liked the DS version, because once you had the final party I really enjoyed reading everyone's thoughts. Cecil, Kain, and Rosa are like caught in this giant clusterfuck of each other and worry and guilt and LUNARIANS!!! and CECILLLL!!! and ROOOOOSA, Rydia's being all sweet and innocent and excited about exploring and worried about them all!, and Edge is the only member of the party who doesn't have his head stuck up his own ass.
FFVI: Terra, Celes, Edgar, Sabin, for maximum damage dealing. Runners-up include Locke and Shadow, and possibly Setzer.
FFVIII: Well, since it has to include Squall, I'll go with Squall-Quistis-Irvine, which I find is a cool balance of strength, casting, and limit breaks, and is also SEXY. Acceptable alternative is Squall-Quistis-Rinoa.
Day 05 – Your favourite Final Fantasy City/Town.
I DON'T KNOW OKAY, I don't really glom onto locations as much as I do characters! Let's just go through here:
FFIV: The Feymarch is awesome! I love the meta of a Land of Summoned Monsters, and the place itself is neat.
In FFVI, I thought the uniqueness of the places was really neat: Zozo, for example, or Mobliz in the World of Ruin, or Thamasa, little towns where you can really kind of see how geography and stuff like that has affected the way they develop. I don't really have a favorite though.
In FFVII, I liked a LOT of the landscape; Midgar alone is its own world to build in, and then there's Cosmo Canyon (which I wish we'd seen more of!) and the City of the Ancients, which were neat.
In FFVIII I really liked Esthar - Laguna's shiny city of awesome! What's not to like?!
I liked a lot of the places in FFIX too, although none stands out as a 'favorite': I liked Lindblum, and Burmecia, and that crazy thing in the Desert.
FFX had some real awesome places too. Hey! I haven't mentioned FFX here but this is a good time to say, I fucking loved this game! It doesn't have the nostalgia value of IV/VI or the constant draw of VIII, but it's still one of my all-time favorites! And so much of what I liked about it was Spira as a whole, because I feel like FFX was in its world a lot more than other games, like, the world was part of the story itself; the worldbuilding there was intimately related to the story and the characters.
XII I am not sure I've played enough times to name a 'favorite'. XD
