Final Fantasy

I finished a very enjoyable playthrough from start to VI thanks to Pixel Remasters, and I bought VII-IX on Switch to keep it going. I'm on the first arc in Kalm after leaving Midgard and I am finding it a struggle to get through. This game moves so slow, the story is not at all interesting so far, combat is entirely monotonous, the characters are flat, the controls are clunky, and the cut scenes are excruciatingly long and pointless.

I do not want to play through it for completeness sake, but I also don't want to give up too early.

I feel like I should be enjoying it by now, right? Is there some point in the story where it really takes off? If so, how close am I?

Introducing State of the Realm, a handy feature in Final Fantasy Tactics - The Ivalice Chronicles that will provide more information about the characters and the world of Ivalice - as well as the story thus far - between battles.

The music in FFVI was ahead of its time.

Hallo Community! ❤️

I‘m near the end of FF7 Rebirth and I already cry to know that it will end.

Which Game (FF Game) should I play next? I already played 16 and my very first FF Revenant Wings (I was 12 years old).

I currently have my eyes on FF X, but maybe others have different recommendations :)

Looks like Nobuo Uematsu has assisted with the re-recording of several tracks on the anniversary record.

The Masamune’s blade has an organic quality to it, lengthening and shortening as needed. In the recently released second season of The First Soldier arc in Final Fantasy 7 Ever Crisis, there actually is a scene in which the Masamune grows longer for the first time. I would love for you to check it out.
