    Thanks for watching and thanks for being patient as we get back into the Final Fantasy series! My original plan was to do another trilogy of Final Fantasy videos back to back, but with how long these games get from here on out, I'll likely put some smaller, simpler videos in between so that the wait isn't so long. Hope you enjoy and thanks for understanding!

    • @hardgay7537
      @hardgay7537 Před 6 lety +50

      Well, crime requires law, and if the king is the law, and the king don't care, then it wasn't a crime.
      That being said, IV was totally having the MC slaughter innocents unprovoked as a means of shock value and character establishment, and it worked.

    As someone who has recently been thinking a lot about 4 vs 5 vs 6 (for a Fake Sequelitis which likely won't happen tbh) it is pretty surprising how much I had forgotten about this game. Especially all the fake-outs! I do feel like FF4 was able to get away with big character moments like that because of its linearity though, since it forced those characters to be in the party at a specific time, so those moments could contribute to the overarching story, rather than FF6 which, despite how much I love it, really had to relegate most of those big character moments to side quests that didn't affect the main story all that much. FF5 had it easy since there were only 4 (or 5) characters, but 5 probably has the best gameplay of the entire series.
    4 definitely has the best boss theme! I feel like 4's boss theme actually tells kind of a "story" all on its own. It starts out as just pure stress, clashing of chords from one end to the other with fatigue setting in as the chords slowly descend, only for it all to disappear except for the drums and bass, a moment when both parties are clearly stopping to regain their composure. The best part is just after that though, when the strings kick back in. You can really feel the desperation in this section. You thought the moment of rest would help, but maybe it didn't, and the reality of your imminent injuries starts to set in, further exacerbated by how much the game really makes you care about its characters. Of course in the end, you hear the chords gradually start to ascend and just for that moment, victory really feels within your grasp. Maybe it comes, maybe it doesn't, but either way, the transition back to stress city is only a few seconds away. As much as I love 6's boss theme, I do kinda feel like that one was a little too heavy on the "stress" side of things. Like it was basically all stress all the time and didn't really tell a "story" the way that 4's did. Of course that's all subjective.
    This is why I don't think I'll end up making that video. 'Cause that last paragraph alone would probably be a half a day of editing right there!

And I’m glad that there have been more versions that came out which are more faithful to the original and upping the difficulty. That ol’ original SNES cart will always hold a special place for me. Great review of this classic game!

    I know I'm coming to this very late, but I've only recently discovered you Jared.
    This is my absolute favorite FF game. Where 6 is the one that is THAT game for you, the one who helped shape your life, this is THAT one for me. Cecil's story, despite where the development ends, is what pushed me to overcome the problems I had in my life at the time. Granted, I was 10 when I played it, but it was really impactful for me.
    While as an adult, I agree with your critical appraisal of this game, as a child it blew my mind. The music is fantastic, though the story elements are goofy. The gameplay is great. It was the basis of the next 6 FF games, and some other RPGs of the era as well.
    Overall, I agree with your assessment of the game. And like you said in your FF9 video, "7 is the most important, this one is my favorite, and 9 is the best."

    Meet wise old man
    Go to giant grey sci fi villains base
    Villain is a tall man in black armor that doesn't talk much, plotwist he is your brother(not father).
    Old man sacrifices himself as he fights tall evil man so you can escape from sci fi base
    You find your true self, stray away from the dark side, and become a rad good side guy.
    You go to a moon to fight the Tall evil man
    Plotwist, Tall evil man is controlled by an evil old man, he is also kinda good inside.
    Fight evil old man, save the galaxy.

      Icằŗūs Kūŗøı FFVI is really Star Wars, too: a main protagonist doesn't know the secret of their lineage and the destiny they'll fulfill, there's an evil empire trying to take over everything and a resistance group opposing them, said evil empire's after sources of unlimited powah, that same main protagonist gets saved by a group of adorable fluffy warriors at one point, a mentor character gets iced by the big bad, some people turncoat to the resistance, the empire's main base gets bodied with the aid of sources of unlimited powah--there's even a literal Star Wars easter egg in the English translation (don't know if it's in the original) if you go to rescue a traitor while dressed as an imperial soldier where she says "Aren't you a little short to be a soldier?"

    I do remember this being super easy...then I played the DS remake of it...got wrecked. Honestly the collection for psp (that also had the after years) is probably my favorite version of it.

    I wish you'd mentioned Tellah's death, because it's the only death that isn't a fake out, plus it's a tragic tale of an old man so consumed by revenge that despite everyone telling him that he can't handle it he still wastes what's left of his life to take his revenge, then dies and never comes back.
    OK we see his ghost but he's still dead.

      Agreed, Tellah is absolutely the best written character in the game. Despite how much I like Kain, I have to admit the mind control is pretty dumb.

      NanoWasabi Honestly I hated Tellah.

    • @DaimoHope
      @DaimoHope Před 6 lety +3

      I agree. All of Tellah's problems stem from being an old jerk who would not give his blessing. If you read his thoughts in the DS version, they are never about anyone else, but how to get vengeance for Anna.

    Ah, yes my life sustaining substance, ProJared Videos... I got a little malnourished but I will forgive you since this is your greatest work to date.
    Made a day of it, reward for working hard, grabbed my favorite chips and a delicious smoothie!
    start off with a beautiful segue and a genuine commercial, nobody likes being advertised to, however I actually enjoyed your presentation here. (this and you Zelda II are probably the only ads I won't/don't skip on rewatches)
    But still a very strong performance making me VERY glad I've been watching ProJared videos for so long, fun little call-back jokes through-out.
    a solid look at the game and spot on humor especially the comediac critique of the story.
    I thank you for your service ProJared.
