For the last week and some, I’ve been working on Final Fantasy IX mash-ups. This led to a discussion with the girl who sits next to me at work who’s also played various Final Fantasy games. Well wouldn’t you know it, we both got the urge to play again. She went back to versions she bought for the PSP and I bought Final Fantasy Dimensions on Google Play.
I’ve only played FF VI through X. I came late to the party so I didn’t play the first five. XI was an MMO which didn’t interest me at the time and I never did go and buy XII. When I read up on XIII I decided that the franchise had deviated too much from the formula I enjoyed to even try it.
Final Fantasy Dimensions is a throwback to yesteryear’s Final Fantasy on the SNES. You start the game and the familiar refrain carries you back. The plot seems almost directly lifted from the plot of previous installments, but that’s okay. You come to expect and even like that from the series.
I haven’t advanced very far in the game. I play the game in short bursts and then move on to something else for a spell. I want to make it last.
The first of the FFIX mash-ups go up on Wednesday. I’m really happy with how they turned out. I still have two more to go in the next two weeks. Maybe they’ll make you want to pick up the game too.
Have a good week yall. Talkatcha again soon!
