My next game i start will be Star Ocean First Departure R. And if i finsih that game fast enough i probably play either Persona 4 Golden or a rerun of Nier Replicant.
I also still play Final Fantasy XVI and Soulhackers 2 occasionally, because it’s hard for me to finish these game.
Last month in only finisehd redemption reapers.
What do you intend to play?
I’m on disc 3 of Final Fantasy 9 and struggling to keep playing. The insane high rate of encounters is finally wearing me down.
Also playing Skies of Arcadia for the first time.
i think i played it maybe 8 years ago, so i can’t remember if it was that high. Keep in mind to have fun when playing games. Often i stuggle to play a game i don’t enjoy just to finish it (maybe soulhackers 2 and ff16).
FF9 probably has the highest encounter rate out of the first ten games. I’d say it’s even worse than FF1. The battles and the AP/equipment systems are excellent though. Good story too.
When you don’t need AP to gain any skills you really notice battles starting every four steps. It takes forever to get anywhere in a dungeon.
The was the first Final Fantasy I had to hate-play to finish. Between the encounter rate, 20 second load times to get into said encounters (I hope you’re playing a quicker version), and the brutally sluggish pace in combat, I had a really rough time with it.
On the plus side, FF9 got me to finally start looking at JRPGs not made by Square, and I discovered Suikoden II and Valkyrie Profile soon after.
