My mom asked me this question as I sat glued to the television screen playing the original fftactics...My reply? Well here are just some:

1. FF has taught me to rebel against tyrannical kings.

2. Every time Im hurt, I learned that all I have to do is drink a magical potion to make me feel better...

3. Privacy? Pshaaaaw! I've never even heard of it!

4. Killing innocent animals in the woods is okay as long as it raises my experience level! (I'm already on level 6!)

5. Its okay to walk into abandoned temples as long as I'm searching for hidden treasure!

6. Cactuses are EVIL! (and apparently they have jumbo form)

7. When on an adventure, always fall in love with at least one fellow female character.

8. When fighting somebody, its okay to use swords, even if they are unarmed. ( They might be monks!)

9. Always use wild birds as a means for quick transportation.

10. Bird's feathers will revive me from a k.o.

11. Always use hairgel. ALWAYS!

12. Always look feminine. ALWAYS!

13. Always have small fits of depression and an emotional backstory. (fangirls tend to love that stuff!)

14. Always become an orphan before going out on an advenyure. That way, nobody whould worry if I went out and saved the world.

15. When being held hostage by a group of thugs, it helps to summon an esper.

16. Always summon an esper at any time. For some reason Gods will already be there to help you because apparently they dont care about anything else and they have no lives of their own.....

17. Always wear lots of belts and straps. ALWAYS!

18. The pilots of every airplane and boat is named Cid.

19. Always take turns when in a fight...unless your fighting in realtime, but we dont live in that universe now do we?

20. Always talk to random strangers when you arrive in a new town, because apparently, thats the safe way to get info.

21. Always carry a map, because having a gps system is just plain lame.

So I've been taught all these life lessons and many more. What has FF taught you?
 
FF has taught many many things...

1. That I can be hit or hit someone with any pointy object and be perfectly find if I have a bunch of hit points.

2.That I can never die as long as I've saved before.

3.To always save before I do sometihng foolish.

4. That weather will have no effect on me.

5. That swords will one day fire bullets.

6. That stealing is okay, as long as I use whatever I take to fight monsters.

7. No authority is ever right, and must be crushed.

8. Old people are evil and always wrong.

9. Young people are always right.

10. Pregnant women don't get fat, so it's no excuse.

11. Women must wear skimpy outfits to be ass kicking.

12. There is always an inn in the middle of nowhere.

13. To be cool, you must have long hair or an accent, or both.

14. There is no such thing as school.

15. If I act odd, I'm being possessed by an evil sorceress from the future hellbent on compresing time.

More to come, maybe
 
1. When it comes to swords, bigger is always better.
2. If at first you don't succeed, grind, grind again.
3. Gravity is not constant. Not by a long shot.
4. The longer your theme, the better it is for you.
5. Chef's knives are the embodiment of death.
 
I learned summor stuffs:

1. Never have a normal name because the normal named people are always side characters...

2. Little people are just moogles with no fur...

3. There is no such thing as cancer.

4. Poison is the only disease out there, there is no different types of poison...

5. I can go for days without eating because it's okay to starve as long as I'm on an adventure...

6. Soap? Ya right! Heroes dont bathe EVAR!

7. Always have an enemy. ALWAYS!

8. Boots are cool...nuff said...

9. Always layer up! The opposite is for the females--->>> less is more!

10. The world is always ending and there is no other hero besides me and my gang of friends who can stop it.

11. I dont need food.

Haha I just realized that every hero from FF must have smelled aweful and starved through the whole game. No wonder everyone is so angry in these games! Anyway I'll find more things later...
 
Deja vu....I seem to remember a thread just like this before :hmmm:. Oh well, here's some points:

+Who needs to worry about flight delays? Flying around the world on an airship only takes you less than a minute!

+Hospitals? Doctors? Clinics? Pah, who needs them? Esuna will do.

+You never bleed.....even when fighting a psychopathic God.

+News spreads quickly. You killed a tyrant ruler? The townsfolk will know before you even get there.

+Hygiene? Who needs it?

+You need no license to carry weapons in towns.

+Townsfolk are usually nice people. Crime is a myth.

+Ugly, deranged clowns can be promoted as military generals.

+Hippos and giant rats can be your neighbour.

+Caves and temples. They all have treasure chests that are always unopened, even if you are not the first to go in!

+Even if a monster spews fire, sends a meteor on you or devours you- you're still OK and the world still survives.

+People live on the Moon.
 
Most important rules I've learned:

- You can keep talking to people until they repeat their last sentence over and over again. Only then you know they have provided all information they have.

- Also, people don't get annoyed if they have to repeat that last sentence over and over again to you.

- You only shed blood or really die when it is relevant to the grand story. (and in fmv's... I'd like to see how life looks in fmv-mode :P)
 
More things I've learned.

1. Never be mean to any female, she's more than likely a princess undercover.

2. Half breeds are evil.

3. Bad hair days? No one notices.

4. Be careful swimming. Even though you can see the bottom from above, you never know it's there until you have to dump a body.

5. It's okay to blow up property, as long as it's own by the goverment.

6. Cross dressing is a great way to get places you can't go.

7. Woman don't have nipples. Just look at Lulu.

More, maybe later.
 
You can be resurrected by a feather unless you die in a cut scene.

There is a man named Cid who probably has a flying ship.

Over sized swords are practical.

Puppets can have souls.

The villain is either your brother, a god or a being of emense power.

The devil lives in a lamp.

A needle can destroy living statues.

It's cool to ride on over sized chickens.

Spiky hair is always in style.
 
More I've learned about from FF.

1. The world is really 2-d, but an illusion makes it look 3d.

2. Maps update themselves, even when written on paper.

3. Maps can be complete although you've never been to that place before and you didn't buy it.

4. Sports can defy physics.

5. You aren't a wedding crasher until you literally crash something large into a building or kill the groom.

6. Music is playing while God watches you, you just can't hear it.

13. My dreams are better than everyone elses and will probably come true...
