Final Fantasy IX Review

Quote: Mission146

Thank you for the compliment; very kind of you to say so.

This game is a remaster; I guess the possibility of a remake of IX is being discussed, but I don't know why anyone would want to do that.

I agree that it's really not worth a replay as an adult, at least, for most people. IX might have been the first Final Fantasy title for some people, or perhaps even the first RPG, and I suspect that the nostalgia factor would have positively influenced my review had that been the case for me. I suspect VI will get a much better review from me if I do review it, (it's coming to Switch in a couple of months) but I already know that certain aspects of the story haven't aged well...because I have aged well.

I would also say that some people who gravitate towards the whimsical might enjoy this title as adults, but only if they are fans of the series in the first place. That's why I give it a weak recommend for people who are already huge fans of the series. I don't think you would like it. You would first have to want to play a highly story-driven game, and second, not think that the story is actually fairly weak.

You're quite welcome! Have you played Earthbound? I'm somewhat slowly making my way through that game and will likely review it. I'm not sure exactly where I am at with it, but I can say it's going to be a much more favorable review than this one, barring a sudden mid-game turn to massive sucktitude.

Thank you for the compliment on my writing style! Quite frankly, I suspect Terapined doesn't like me, for some reason. Unusual, because he and I met in person once and I thought we got on pretty well. If I had to suspect anything, I would suspect it's because my political views don't align with his as closely as they once did. For someone who is supposedly enjoying life and doing whatever he wants, he sure does make curmudgeonly posts sometimes.

I always enjoy, "Too long," comments, though.

Okay, so just don't f&*^$ing read it. lol

Final Fantasy IX Review (For Terapined)

It's not very good.

No, unfortunately I don't (and never have had) any Nintendo consoles so I have never played that series.

Edit: That is partially false, I had a Gamboy Color as a kid, but never any of the home consoles.

I decided to look up how much the Quest 2 was selling for at my nearby Bestbuy. I believe it's cheaper than my original quest. Also saw it has almost 7000 5 out of 5 star reviews! 117 1 star reviews. Are you still running it off your phone's unlimited data plan?

Do you ever sit outside your trailer at night and use it?
