Screen shot from the 3D battler minigame from FF7 Rebirth, weirdly I could not find an image of the original game to post alongside it, weird!

Day 24: Worst Minigame

It took a lot of thought just to pick from FF7 alone lol

I wanted to go with the basketball game from OG7 but the fact that Rebirth took the broken 3D battler game from OG7, fixed it, made it look awesome, and it STILL royally sucks, has to make it the winner/loser. Awful!

Yeah it really is, also thank you! It's just a really bad cold (I don't even think it's the flu? Though maybe...) so I'll be fine in a couple of days :3

Day 23: Favorite Minigame

No question, it has to be Chocobo Hot & Cold from FF9, I always spend hours on this one in every playthrough, and actually get a little sad when I "beat" it ha ha. So fun!

It also gives you access to SO MANY amazing end-game items, equipment, and even other sidequests!

If I wasn't brutally sick this weekend I would have been in downtown Austin last night! Not that exact area and time though, but still that's horrible to think about

That was only the one time! It was fun though and I have done 2 more low-character challenges since (including one I'm working on right now!)

Cover art for Final Fantasy "III" on SNES, a game I have played so much that I wrote a strategy guide for it in the actual 90s lol (don't look for it, it's been lost)

Day 22: FF I Played the Most

Well that can ONLY be FF"3" on SNES! Though I spent a few months breaking FF7 on purpose, overall I have played FF6 more than most video games, and thanks to not having as many remakes, it's always been the same mistitled SNES version, 31 years and counting!

Not that I'm against the political process or anything but there was a much cooler way they could have determined this

Day 21: Favorite Armor

Well I already burned up Exdeath as an answer so let's go with my OG favorite armor-haver, Kain from FF4!

Love his lil dragon helmet that (at least in his in-game portrait) obscures his face, and he looks so cool in battle you kind of forget he's one of the worst characters

For sure! And 6 is still WAY UP THERE and, again, is my actual favorite, but yeah I just recognize that 9 has a stronger story overall

26.02.2026 18:07 β€” πŸ‘ 1    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 1    πŸ“Œ 0

Basically, what I look for in a good story is: Is there depth? Is there mystery? Is there a reason for the characters to act like they do? Is there a reason to go to the next place? Am I really invested in these characters' feelings? Do I relate to them? Do I get to catch frogs? FFIX ticks all boxes

Day 20: Favorite Story

For 30 years I would have said FF6 easily, but I recently realized that the reason FF6 has such a good story is because it's not finished. You have to write half of it in your own head!

Therefore, I am calling FFIX the best story, it's still not 100% but it's the closest!

Fujin, I think from the remastered FF8, where they kinda yassified her for reasons that seem kind of obvious on the face of things, but upon closer thought, is extremely weird, just like everything about her character!

I'm working on writing a piece diving into her weirdo place in a place full of weirdos, but just putting her out there is as much as I can do on a break at work

Day 19: Favorite NPC

Since I haven't gotten to FF8 yet in my stream, many of y'all don't know how much I can talk about Fujin, one of Seifer's 2 friends/subordinates in the Balamb Garden Disciplinary Commitee. She is one of FF's finest examples of totally unexplained NPC weirdness, which is my JAM.

Day 18: Favorite Sequel/Spinoff/Remake

Well there is exactly one game that I can think of that (technically) ticks all 3 boxes: FF7 Rebirth!

I waited a long time to finally play Remake and it was very good, but Rebirth is really the one that got me going on this retelling of my 6th favorite FF

Day 17: Favorite Soundtrack

I swear to god this is not an attempt at a hot take, I sincerely think that the only truly invincible soundtrack for a game bearing the FF moniker is Mystic Quest

Just an inexplicable lightning in a bottle OST from Ryujii Sasai and Yasuhiro Kawakami that hits every time

I still have my CD-i so I can still play them if I ever get a real or burned disc copy of them again (I lost most of those years ago)... however I ALSO have the CD-i core for my MiSTer Pi which recreates them perfectly so yeah I definitely have access to them ha ha

There's also the PC fan-remakes!
