FFIV - Worth Getting?

[Drognar]

Once again-hell yes! This a classic rpg and definetly the best out of the 1st 4 ff games. This the first ff game to add indivdual storylines and give personality to the chars, which is done quite well. For anyone who wants this game if you have DS hold till that the ds version comes out since that when the game will look really damn good.

Yes, i bought it recently and its amazing, til you get to the final dungeon and relise you are epically underlevelled

[Aryus]

i havent played much of it but i hear a lot of good things about it

...You're kidding me. There's a DS version?! >.> I just bought the GBA version last night so I can play it on my DS (which I finally got yesterday)...

Apparently, I've been living under a rock. I started playing last night and so far so good. I'm not far into it yet, and I'm actually anxious to play it again. So yes, I would say it's worth it.

EDIT: Nevermind...found the thread about the DS version. -Sighs- Oh well, I'd like to try out the classic graphics anyway.

This is the first of those classic Final Fantasy games you'll see on a shelf years after you finished it and will buy it again.
An absolute brilliant game... the first real characters in the series, plot twists, challenging bosses (more than I can say for some of the 3D ones) and extremely atmospheric music.
Well worth getting.

I am truly glad to see so many people here with the same mind set as myself. This is the game that hooked me on the FF series and truly made me an rpg fan. I had played Dragon Warrior, and loved that, but this game is what firmly set me on the path to rpg geekdom.

*spoilers*




Dark knight turned Holy knight, overcoming his past. A best friend controlled by the enemy, in love with the same girl you are. Airship fleets. The four fiends. Lali-ho. Palom and Porom. Oh this game has so many good memories.

I'd say yes its worth getting FFIV since it introduced a lotta staples to the series like a love story, plot twists and fleshed out characters for the first time to FF.

[Lirael]

From what I've played, it has a beautiful story and wonderful music. The characters are as good as in any other Final Fantasy game - it's a true classic. The bosses are challenging at times, but it's all good gameplay for some. I'd say you'll certainly like this game if you like Final Fantasy, although you might like it if you disliked a different FF.

If you have no idea what Final Fantasy is, start with VIII, IX or X. And don't judge Final Fantasy by one game. I didn't like VIII at first... I only enjoyed it - and it became my favourite game - after playing most of the others in the series... Anyway, that's a little off topic. What I'm basically saying is, try this one out whether you've liked other FF games or not. Heh.

I still have a mint FFII SNES game somewhere. Plus the Playstation version and the GBA version... it's my most favourite game in the series.

I mean, come on! Characters finally have some real depth, graphics were quite impressive at the time, musical score = amazing... never mind all the innovative new game mechanics introduced which set the trend for the future... a classic in every way. I still find that fucking Demon Wall hard, regardless of how much I level up...

Haha, yes, yes, a good one.

I think it will be, i can't wait to get it, to hear the characters speak, to see them in 3D, for the game to be presented in an overall, better way, i can't wait to get it.
