![]() This first post is a general introduction to the series as a whole, but even if you are a die-hard fan already, there are some things that I explore that I hope you'll find interesting.įinal Fantasy is a roleplay video game series that started back in 1987. I wrote these reviews as if you have no idea what Final Fantasy is – whether you are a gamer or non-gamer. The series spans a multitude of genre-bending stories – sci-fi, fantasy, some steampunk, modern fantasy, space, traditional fantasy with knights in armor – and a whole lot of crystals. As a sci-fi/fantasy writer, they inspired tons of elements in my stories. Still, the world and concepts of Final Fantasy gripped me. It took me years to finish that game, mostly because I was still a novice at RPGs and I didn’t quite know what I was doing. This turned out to not be the case! Getting into Guilty Gear XX as a completely new player is still a thing you can do in 2021!įinal Fantasy X was my very first Final Fantasy game, way back when it first came out on the PS2. ![]() Admittedly, I’m not a complete newcomer: I played Guilty Gear XX way back circa 2003-2005 at arcades and friend’s houses, but the general assumption is that when you leave a game alone for 15+ years and then come back to it, the only people left playing will be hardcore players who have lapped you a dozen times over. A match 20% winrate strikes me as pretty dang high considering that I was hopping in after spending just 10 minutes or so in training mode to learn how all of the buttons worked. Maybe the most surprising part of this experience: despite setting matchmaking to match me with players of any skill level (to reduce matchmaking times), I didn’t get completely ROFLstomped by everyone I played against! Over the course of my first hour of playing, I had a match record of 2-8, and apart from the fact that I actually won a couple matches, many of my lost matches were close games that went to game 3.
