Easily confuse. Especially if you are not ready for it and it hits your whole party. The only saving grace there is they can hit another party member and un-confuse them. Everything else is fairly manageable, especially in later games when you don't need to lean on items as much. The only...

As said, the classes are permanent, with the exception of the mid-game class change. You can only revive through the sanctuary or a phoeniox down. but I think the best advice is just to not die; have a white mage, and let her heal liberally, and carry a full stock of potions, healing after...

Apparently, in the original Japanese, "Necron" was named "Cloud of Darkness" -- That was the final boss from III who also spectacularly appeared after the party defeated who they thought to be the last boss.

Midgar -- I don't know if any other FF location has been as well fleshed out. About the first third of the game is spend there. The disparity in wealth is overwhelming -- the slums feel dirty and desperate, and SHINRA feels invincible, which sets up classic juxtaposition when

Long hair. I have always preferred it. But I also prefer "Garnet" to "Dagger", and to "Garnet" so I suppose I like the regal, elegant look of the longer hair.

Who will win the NBA Championship? You're Portland Trailblazers of course. Ok, so probably not, but I think that Roy, Rudy, Aldridge and Outlaw take the Blazers to the second round, or perhaps even the Western Conference Finals before bowing to the eventual NBA champions (either the Lakers or...

I did...To complete Jimminy's Journal. Most were ok, did not really have fun per se during any of them. Most annoying were the cargo push and the poster business. Ugh.

I'm pretty sure that the Bahamut path is rigged. You have to walk when the light isn't flashing...or is flashing...can't remember. But the point is that it is set to always trigger an encounter if you do it wrong. Correctly if I am mistaken...it has been years since I last played

FFVIII. It borders on art. It is less a dialouge, and more a representation of the themes of the game. It is both strikingly impressive, and impactful. It sets the tone for the game, and leaves you with as many questions as you have information. FFX, while engaging, was less impressive to...

I agree with parts of yours, and have different takes on others. Here is how I would go with it -- FF1 Heroes: - Warrior of Light - Matoya (as a magic user...maybe throw her crystal eye at people as well...) FF1 Villains: - Garland - Warmech -- I think that he would be awesome. Otherwise...

It depends -- In the early ORIGINAL releases of the game they were so rare to find and expensive to buy that they were not cheap -- just a "get out of jail free" card to bail you out when you were midway through the temple of fiends the second time around and would not be able to go forward or...

I dunno if I aspire to be any FF character, but there are those that I have a lot of admiration. For me, it is resignation to an adverse fate that fosters literary respect. For example, I respect Jean Valjean most of any character I have studied. Applying this trait to FF, I have a lot of...

Hmm...ExDeath burning the forest of Mua comes to mind...or "Void"-ing all of the moogles. I will agree that the doctor experimenting on Edge's folks was pretty twisted.

I agree with Ravencroft: It was nice to be able to customize your characters, but to have said customization follow characters across time. In a sense though, it is a bit still like leveling: You find monsters who give good experience/ap, and you fight them to increase your sphere level. And...

I am sure that some bible verses are contradictory, and on that two points: (1) they are very old, translated numerous times, and thus some of their original meanings have doubtless been eroded; (2) I do not believe that the bible can be accurately read in isolation. A verse that contradicts...

I would just go to some local stores that you are interested in working at, and ask if they are accepting applications. If so, kindly request one, then take it home and fill it out. The key is to translate your skills into marketable ones. If you have any sort of web programming or website...

Great link. Terrific songs. My favorite is Rose of May -- I always liked Beatrix, but had forgotten that she had such a pretty theme. KTG's lyrics fit the theme perfectly.

So then the ends justify the means? To what extent are you willing to take this? I will admit that saving the planet must occupy a sort of special place of prominence, but not so much as to waive complete liability for AVALANCHE. While Shinra's actions may well have been grossly negligent...

*Blush* Confessions of a Shopaholic. My wife really wanted to see it, and I had just made her watch Advent Children, so I was due. Even more shameful...I actually really liked the movie...

Wow! Great sketches. I look forward to your blog! I always enjoy hearing a gamers visceral reaction to the game, to contrast it with mine.
