Final Fantasy IV DS now avaliable

Zidart

WII, PS3 AND 360 FTW (also nintendo DS XD)
today is the release date of the long waited FFIVDS remake, and i really want to buy it as soon as i can, anyone wants to get this game as well? :D
 
Well I guess I will just try to get it when it hits the bargain bin. These games are great for when I want to fall asleep fast.

I hope this is much improved over FFIII (major SNOREfest)

well too bad for you, i didn't have time to sleep with FFIII because of the level of challenge, the story and the beautiful soundtrack

i sadly couldn't get it today, but i'm sure i will get it around this weekend or something like that, i can't wait to put my hands on this very challenging game, (which is supposed to be more difficult than the original/GBA versions of FFIV)

Whoa, what, zomg, that is not good. Well I wont be getting this. Is there any FF game that is somewhat easy?

If it doesnt involve Chocobos or anything dealing with "a mainstream FF game with chocobos" then I will look into it...

How was revenant wings, easy!?

it involves chocobos, every FF game has chocobos (except 1 and 2 but those are too hard)

nope revenant wings starts easy like every game and then it becomes insanely hard.
 
Honestly? well my last hope for an FF game will be a remake of FF 7 on the DS, and of course FF13 for my PS3.

FF 7 better be easy and FF13 better be easy.

I will try to convinve my brother to get FF4 since he did beat FF3. And I hope it doesnt invole going against 4 bossses, and then facing a final boss will 1 million HP and if you lose you have to face all 4 bosses again!!!!!

not exactly but you do have to face 4 bosses in a row and if you lose you have to start from the beginning =P.

and no i don't think neither FF7 nor FF13 will be easy, i mean the difficulty of FF games is always above the average
 
Im going to write a letter to Square Enix and inquire why they make the games so hard. It drives people like me away cause we are at a disadvantage to other players. I dont want to have to use a FAQ to go through every FF game I played. It is such a burden

RPGs are meant to be hard (or at least challenging), if you want to play an easy RPG go play some pokemon.
 
The easiest RPG was Tales of Symphonia (beat in 6 months) and Tales of Eternia (beat in 2 years).

I would wager Pokemon as being difficult as 80 hours to get to the Elitest 4 is quite a time committment.

RPGs are meant to be fun and expansive experiences in romance, storytelling, drama, and suspense. Not a Challenge. The challenge hampers the story, thus the game becomes unenjoyable. FF doesnt do this well, too much story and lackluster gameplay makes it a snorefest. only a few elite select people are able to enjoy the FF and discover this nugget.

time spent in the game =/= difficulty. and tales of is an exception because you can alter the difficulty (which you can do in some FF games).

RPGs are games..... games not books or movies, story plays a very important part in a RPG but is a game so gameplay plays an important part of it as well, and just so you know.... FF games have all those elements in their stories.

only a few elite select people??? HMMMM i think you mean HARDCORE GAMERS XD??? which there's lots of them in this world.

is ok if you think FF is a snorefest, however if you think challenge isn't fun then don't get near any FF in history (unless it has a difficulty level option)
 
No I wouldnt say hardcore gamers. I know tons of people who have only played FF games and they only play those around the time that they were released and then stopped. They arent hardcore if they are just playing them for when they release then put them down.
-----

An RPG is driven by the story, a weak story that is inaccessible due to challenge doesnt drive the story, thus the RPG is bad. The equation is out of equilibrium. FF games may have these elements but it is extremeley unbalanced. Trying to jam too much story in a space in which the gameplay is as sparce as a needle in a haystack. FF is too difficult to the average consumer, only these select people can get over the barrier in time to actually find the main conflict in the story and continue.


----------------------------
Tales, I only play on highest difficulty and even then it is hilariously easy. The story is accesible at the start, the conflict apparent, and the gameplay is as common as there are enemies. FF differs in, not enough fighting, too much story, and difficult to pass these few sparse battles thus the story is inaccesible, the RPG cant be driven, and it becomes a snorefest.

the game is not that hard either, is not as hard as fire emblem radiant dawn but is not as easy as hello kitty either.... i assure you the majority of the people that played an FF game got to finish it.

but after that i gotta say that it is your own opinion if you think is not in complete balance of story/gameplay/challenge i think it is... and that's why i buy them.... if the game is not for you then don't buy it.

if you could beat tales of games in the highest difficulty then i think an FF game should be a breeze for you...

Are you seriously crying because a game might present a small challenge at some point?

Games=Fun=No Challenge. That is my general philosophy on the type of games I look for to buy.

it might be to you but for other people challenge = fun.

if you want easy games go buy the shovelware on the wii
