where's Golden Sun

This seems right up your alley. Doesn't make sense. The camera is terrible, but that was a hallmark of the generation. Only one analog. Even Mario 64 was the same

was it intentional that he sounded almost exactly like vox from hazbin hotel when he said "Its been 7 years!"?

When he said 'full disclosure' I didn't know *what* he was gonna say. 🤔

I regret getting dental work done so much. I don't recommend it at all. More so if they say they have to extract pieces

I’m so happy to see such lovely people here. Keep spreading the love!

The interaction with the audience feels so personal.

I can't imagine how it must have been to have played final fantasy 1 for the first time, being enthralled with it then when the SNES comes out and you find out about "Final Fantasy II" and finding how much more poilshed the game suddenly became on their second entry.

i cant believe its already been 11 years since this video came out😭

he hasnt dont FF13 yet. he doesnt want to.

When it talks about which version is good to play, and bashes on the Steam/mobile port, that pat of the video is outdated. Steam and mobile now have the new pixel remaster version of FFV, which is probably the best way to experience the original game, with upgraded graphics, orchestrated score, and tons of QOL features. I just completed it on Android and it's absolutely fantastic.

Who else watches this channel for inspiration?

The jokes in this one are pure gold

The ending of Rebirth was so bloated, confusing and unclear...

What an incredible piece of work.

New videos are always exciting to see!

11:33 "Every match is essentially the same." This is as true as this game as any game ever. They are the same but all completely different because of the amount of variation that can happen in such a random game. So it's only repetitive if you are simply not enjoying the gameplay loop from the very first match. It's a meditative game really. It can be pure stress but it's very easy to relax in to looking at the bars and numbers and going through the motions with a good amount of strategy and options. The sight of seeing men battle and settle on their own is so interesting and this is still the only game that even does that. It's not like Prison Architect where everything is tightly scheduled. I wouldn't recommend not turning auto flatten on because you really don't want all 1 flat tile of 1 height land. Earthquakes and tidal waves and bogs will just wreak havok. The key is complicated land designs to break up rows of castles so there are more buildings, making for a dense population of multiple buildings, making it difficult to take. A bit like Wales. It's the Welshman in me. You can't wreck what's already shitty. Anyway. The game is easy if it doesn't bug out. Send in the papal magnet. Wait for men to get there, then switch to attack mode. Best case scenario. But there are infinite things that might happen. It's like being a Greek god so much. You just gaze down at the peeps and laugh at how dumb they look. Then zap them to relieve the boredom. It's a mix of catharsis and relaxing. But it can be frustrating because men are so, so dumb. 'Just take that house!!!!!! RAARRARRRR!" But no. He's going over there. Into that swamp. It's funny because you aren't really in control. Only heroes and not even then really. So interesting to think about what it is to BE a god. Boring. Too easy. No consequence. Messing about and causing a mess for no real reason other than hubris and pride. All to collect lightning bolts and level up you powers by 0.002% per hour which I'm suspicious really do anything at all... It's a time waster like Lemmings but it put's you into such an interesting world and it's gameplay and pixel art converge into a brilliant game for the ages. 9/10.

I still play this. But only the Mega Drive rom. Because I like to use a control pad. But it's a bit laggy on Genesis/smd. The flowers are the most useful spell by the way. Because the ai starts spamming volcanos and when you flatten that land it's not buildable on. So you need the strongest flower spell you have to put flowers there so it can be built on again. You spend quite alot of time flattening volcanos and putting flowers on it as quickly as possible. The trees give you extra mana. The roads might level down a building, but it's only one level and no big deal and there might be cases where the men are wanting a bit of extra speed to get into the fight and power up you leader to make him into a hero or just have all your men pour into enemy territory by placing your 'papal magnet' there and having everyone walk there by setting the population to 'add to leader'. There is one other mechanic you left out which is 'stance'. This is what you people do. It is neutral/make houses and walk about. Aggressive, which will make them attack enemies on sight. 'Merge together' which makes them not walk about at low hp levels. Then the most important one: 'go to leader' which will make anyone who pops out a house go straight to the leader and fall into any traps directly in their path. The last one is key because it's the only way to direct your population and it can take 5 full minutes for a peep to walk fully across the map. Yes it can get repetitive but you can win the very instant you get a bigger population providing you have the armageddon power which you nearly always do, making matches a little as 10 minutes if you want. But without that they can go on for hours. The tricky one's where you can't lower land are about 1 in every 200 maps, if that and I found it fun to play actually. There are about 5 different land types and snow and desert gain power more slowly. The mechanic is this: the larger your house, the faster power is gained and the higher the maximum hp of the inhabitant. When the power/hp level of the occupant reaches the maximum amount, they spawn a new peep who wanders off, leaving the house a bit lower in hp. People are really just hp. Bigger houses makes is faster. But don't make everything flat because the god powers will do so much less damage if half your land is slanted, empty and immune to damage or having a swamp on it. Because most of the time you are cleaning up mess and burnt tiles by raising and lowering a bit of land to clear 4 tiles at once. Unless you have flowers. You can't be too precious about making everything look like Beverly Hills. It's a numbers game and you don't get much free time so just clear out the swamps and concentrate on drowning their leader in a swamp so they keep sending men into it till they figure out what's happening and clear the swamp tile. In some games you need the wall to stop them stomping you in two seconds. Don't leave any gaps! The game holds up really well once you understand what to do. I got to level 150 ish in about half a day. But the Helen of Troy hero is so powerful I got completely wrecked because it bugged out and my men wouldn't attack them and there was no spell to deal with anything. Having to skip that on the Genesis version just made me throw my toys out the pram with the game. The lightning bolt is pointless and takes way too long. But top tip, query the peep you want to zap first so you can see when the health has run out and you can stop holding down the button. God powers are a bit of a nuisance really. They are pretty random. But dealing with that and building up a population is stressful sometimes. The powers are so random and won't do anything half the time. It's all about building up heroes and sending them out for precision attacks on the enemy, as building a hero nets you significant extra hit point on creation of the hero to it's health pool and ergo, your overall hp, which is all this game is. Powermonger is the successor to this game and too confusing to get into without reading the whole manual and it's thick let me tell you. Also using 'stances' but this time passive, neutral and aggressive, to any action, leading to differing amounts of whatever action like take food will take 1/4, 1/2 or all. Not having music is not a big deal as the games are so long it would just repeat too much or having a boring ambient noises don't add anything. This is still fun and really easy to play once you understand you are making batteries and trying to mush the power into a hero unit as fast as possible to send it out and win. Holds up like a champ.

My reaction to Zelda Game Starring Zelda was about as strong as Jared's. That game looks great and I can't wait to play it.

So much truth/accuracy in this video! 💪🏾💪🏾

I think you're reaching with Celes in the opera "confessing her feelings for Locke".

so it's suikoden but they couldnt use the name

Hey another one; one of my players is laywers the rules sometimes and I really appreciate it. It''s a lot of things to keep track of and he helps me a lot.

It's been a few rounds bout the block, since I've seen this vid back in the day, and now, I've been a dm for a few years, and that "don't make the best character" tip is overstated. You can absolutely make the best character AND make em interesting. Stats and mechanics aren't the main thing about a character; CHARACTER is important too.

DAWNTRAIL HYPE

I would call this the RPG direct if MvC didn't come out of the coffin screaming I LIVED BITCH!!!

Cover the new Haven and Hearth, next! <3

Who the hell plays Brothers tale of two sons alone? I played it with all my family and friends and everyone loved it. The music The simple buttons The emotion And the graphics are beautiful And the whole game gets colder and more fantasy as you advance in the game. Overall best co op i played, and my only perfect game on steam (complted all achivements)

Anyone else find the commentary hilarious?

Let’s all appreciate the hard work that goes into making these videos!

Dragon Quest 1 and 2 getting a Duo pack is actually something they did already on the super famicom back when they remade it for SNES. Plus i imagine they couldn't justify selling both games separate for $60 each so they did a Duo pack which makes WAY more sense.

FF9 was my first FF I played, such an impresive game for that time!! also at the top of my RPG list.

I will never understand why square enix is so determined to step away from what made final fantasy final fantasy in terms of gameplay they do everything possible to step away from the traditional turn-based jrpg combat and I don't understand why.

Here after the AVGN did a video on SimCity. Not the first time James did a review on a game you did first.

tbh i only started it like 2 weeks ago cuz the complete edition plus endwalker was on sale so i thought "eh give it a try" and i actually got addicted lol

There is nothing like taking a stroll through the woods on a sunny day and watching god-rays through the branches of the trees.

I sincerely hope you live an amazing life Mr pro

Jared's wallet is gonna be like : "I know what I have to do but I dont know if I have the strenght to do it"

How was the green screen effect achieved in this video?

Exhausting your trance isn't a problem if you can just get it back by doing battles. There's also passive abilities that help you trance faster. You definitely don't know how to play tetra master as the winning card is not random random. Some cards are weaker to certain sides depending on magic or physical defense or vise versa. But.....Great job mentioning You're not alone. If there's any FF that scores a 10 out of 10 it has to be 9.

I’m confused I thought he said it was available for switch. Yes or no?

🇦🇺😚

The personality shines through and keeps viewers coming back.

Video starts at 1:45 Nobody cares about ur special water

I LOVE this game. wildly underrated, especially with the Zodiac Age, major improvement.

I thought this was you playing version 1.0, not patch 1.0 :(

Worst thing FF has ever done? They stopped being turn-based RPGs despite the games' origins in being heavily based on dungeons and dragons, a TURN-BASED RPG. In short, if it ain't turn-based, then it ain't Final Fantasy. Period.

I miss this intro
