Final Fantasy Hacktics

I like the song, but the video is more wat. And are you talking about that wiz khalifa one or whatever? the Smoke weed one?

Why does this happen?

Looks like items will take over the second command slot once again, especially if normal attacks require MP, elixers/ethers are going to be really important.

More jeans than I know what to do with, a band shirt (Red), and an ottoman that unfolds into a chair with wheels.

It's actually really cool. Good for gaming, and makes a solid footrest.

Sorry, I shipped out my videocard, haven't had a computer to do anything with.  I wouldn't go for a sequel to FFT. Too many things can go wrong, people will disagree with how personalities are, portrayal of character, and even your own sequence of events. However, it's your mod, so who cares about what other people think, right?

Very cool video though. Good job on it.

I've never played any FFIV version except the SNES easy-type, as well as a little bit of GBA, (Up until the CPU battle); but, between the two, GBA.

I like the sprite, and honestly I can't say if it's "good" or "bad" as far as quality goes; I've never had the eye or talent for that sort of thing. You could've told me it was originally an alien as the previous sprite and I wouldn't have called you a liar. I prefer the actual shining-metal look to the yellowish that it used to be (just looked up the original sprite to reference), nice job.

Unfortunately I wasted my money on Diablo 3 instead. I might be getting it sometime soon, though.

I did forget about the Red Wings attacking the Dwarves, yeah, but I didn't really think Edward's Castle was that big of a deal. I guess ya never really see their defenses. They hardly have Fabul's famous monk army though, and you never hear about any outstanding soldiers from Damcyan, so I always assumed they were lax on military advancements and training. I also thought it was just monsters under command of Golbez that attacked Fabul, so good lookin out on that one.

Also, straight from the FFWiki, since I have no idea who took over either... "As a replacement, the king invites Golbez to take Cecil's place as the Red Wings commander with Kain Highwind as his second-in-command and monsters as the new crew. "
Also, looking at this, it is assumed that the Red Wings are disbanded after the events underground, so I guess that explains a lot about what happened to them through the later half of the game.

I think a little cameo by Biggs and Wedge as soldiers of the Red Wings would be fitting, especially with their role in TAY.I think Kain's POV would be a pretty neat way to go about this whole thing.

Baigan wasn't a Red Wing, though, he was the King's Advisor. I think an un-named Red Wing that you made solely for this story would actually work really well.

Well after reading it again, I see that I read it wrong. But that sounds good to me. I think that "Cecil's" personality that you used in this video would be fitting of the new Red Wing commander, someone that is worthy of an evil king. The "King" doesn't want another Cecil. Focus on Cecil, in my opinion, for the first few events (or up until he is demoted), might actually be better than otherwise. Cecil IS still the leader of the Red Wings in that video.

Just some character introduction in the first few events would be good, I guess. Your friend is right though. I never really thought about that lol.

Why don't Baron's Red Wings continue to dominate the battlefield, including at home when Cecil infiltrates Baron? The Red Wings sort of disappear from the story after their first show at Mysidia. The people that invade Yang's castle weren't the Red Wings, were they?

Yeah, Cecil never struck me as a humorous character, dark or otherwise. He never really laughs, and is always very serious. This Event's Cecil makes me think of someone bordering on psychopathic (i.e. The Shining's Jack's line "Here's Johnny!" and he's grinning the entire time), with his utter disregard for human life and his dark, dark sense of humor. Maybe I'm just reading too far into that line though.

I don't mean go full-blown emo, like, "My life has no meaning", or some sort, but Cecil always struck me as very humble, and not someone that brags about his talents or revels in a victory on the battlefield.

If you're up for thinking creatively, (and trying to make a good mod/story), I think a story about the Red Wings would actually be pretty cool. Saying a Dissidia type game is similar to Jot5 is like saying every cameo ever is like Jot5.

I'm not sure... what type of story there'd be for that type of deal, especially since I've never played Dissidia, but if you think it's a better idea than the Red Wings one, why not?

Welcome to FFH

Cecil's Dark side actually did escape from the top of Mt. Ordeals.... mwahaha!

Sounds cool.

I guess it's really only the starcraft fans that would find this truly funny, but I think they're still worth a watch even if you haven't played SC1/2.

So now that I feel like an idiot, two things.

1)I don't really think there's much view of the Red Wings pre-Mysidia attack, it's just the opening cutscenes of them leaving the Castle, no talking. We never really know if anyone agrees with what the King is doing. However, from what I remember, the people of Baron in general were not happy with it, and they thought the King acted strange. Maybe there was some dissent before hand that they never showed us?

2)Dark Knight Cecil is more of a person that is just looking for a purpose in life (in my opinion), than a loyal and honorable leader. His relationship with Rosa is rocky, and one of the only "true" friends he has is someone who is just as confused with life as he is. I don't think Cecil could stand up for what he believes is right, personally. He thrives on the fact that the King needs him. It is more obvious when the King takes away his position as leader of the Wings, and Cecil STILL obeys the King to the letter. He fights through warnings, threats, and who knows what dreadful monsters, just to get to Mist and deliver what is, as far as he knows, a small parcel? Please.

So I'm assuming it won't be like FF4, where they actually had doubts about attacking Mysidia, and didn't want to do it? Where Cecil actually didn't know anything about what crystals did?

This sounds cool though. Nice to have another perspective on things.

Naturally

This topic is a window to a strange and frightening world that I might never visit.


Shine on, you crazy diamonds.

'Tis a scary world that I have only frequented a few times. I cannot say whether or not I left better off than when I came ._.

Welcome back =)

so you'd advise against clicking it. Not advise against not clicking it. =p
