Final Fantasy I P.001

Yes, it’s time I started to teach my little helpers all about the business. That means we need to start playing through the whole Final Fantasy series, and we’re starting off with the OG Final Fantasy.

I started looking for my old PSP, and the charging cables for it, and it was no where to be found. I told the kids that it would have to wait for another day. Then I started looking for some cards that I was going to start sorting, and lo and behold, there was the plug for the PSP. I tried looking for the Composite cords to hook it up to the tv, but couldn’t find those either, so we all sat together on the couch, huddled around the PSP.

-Spoilers

We started off by picking our classes, and naming the characters. We chose a Fighter, Red Mage, White Mage and a Black Mage. We named them and off we went. It took us a while to get through the King’s dialogue, because another reason we’re doing them, is to help them learn how to read. With one going into 1st grade, and the other into Kindergarten, what better way to learn then to play Final Fantasy. Sure it has words like coincidence, and prophecy but, it also has words like, the and is.

The next hour was spent walking around the town, and walking around town some more. And more. They decided to walk around in circles, as they thought that each entry to the town was going to be a different town. It was in and out of Cornelia.

Then it was off to the World Map, trying to get into the water, or crossing the bridge that wasn’t there yet.

The Monsters kept attacking us, and we kept battling them over and over.

After that it was time to buy our Weapons, Armor and Spells.

And, it was bedtime. Saved the game, and we’re getting ready to head to the Chaos Shrine.

Beyond Destiny

Midnight Prerelease has come and gone. We had a good crowd show up. Sadly to say Jack hasn’t been found. Not even a non-foil version. That’s Ok though. Do you want to know why? That means he still might be hiding in our leftover Prerelease Kits.

Beyond Destiny Prerelease Kit

You have a better shot at finding Jack than we did.

Also we had one of our Pre-Orders for Beyond Destiny Canceled, so that means we have a few left for anyone else that might want some.

Ever Crisis, and The First Soldier

We had a new Final Fantasy game come out last week. I haven’t had much time to play it, but I can tell you that it is another retelling of Final Fantasy VII. Is it worth playing if you’ve already played the original and the Remake? I’m saying that yes it will be.

Ever Crisis will be diving deeper into the characters backstories. I know for sure, we’ll be seeing Sephiroth’s rise through Shinra, as I believe we’re getting a whole part dedicated to Sephiroth. Part you ask? Yes, Ever Crisis is separated into 3 parts at the moment. Final Fantasy VII, Crisis Core, and The First Soldier.

You’ll start off playing the story you already know, and when you reach a certain point in the story, you will be allowed to play the other parts as well.

So, far I’m still in Midgar.

I don’t know how fast I’ll be able to get through the story, but I’ll be telling you all about my thoughts when I get a chance to.
Like now.

Somewhat Spoilers.

The game does start off with the Bombing Mission. I was not excited about this part. I was hoping that they would just start the game at the very beginning. Only problem with that would be without Cloud, Tifa and the rest of the gang, Square Enix wouldn’t be making much money on the pulls, as no one would be spending money on getting a different costume for Glenn.

The game play is pretty similar to the original, but it’s hard for me to play games without a controller in my hands. I just can’t get into them for some reason. Maybe that’s just a sign of old age.

After the bombs go off, we all separate meet Aerith, buy a flower, run from Shinra, grab a drink with Tifa, tell Barret to bug off, and we head off to Bomb another Reactor.

In which we do.

Until next time, I’ll be laying down on the flower bed, in the Sector 5 church.

Final Fantasy TCG Schedule for 2022

The Tokyo Game Show has come and gone, and Square-Enix was there, as they usually are. Plenty of games were showcased, Including Strangers of Paradise : Final Fantasy Origin, Final Fantasy VII : The First Soldier, and Chocobo GP.

But, you’re not here for that. You’re here because Square-Enix also showcased Final Fantasy TCG. Now, I didn’t understand much of it, but they showed the schedule of releases for 2022.

We already know about the Custom Starter Set -Final Fantasy X, and Emissaries of Light. We’ve talked about both of them already. We have the Anniversary Collection Set 2022 which was revealed last week, as it went up for Pre-Order on the Square-Enix website. (We shall have it too. Just head to Upcoming Releases.) We’ll have a full article on that one up in the next couple of days.

June – Two Player Starter Set Golbez Vs Cecil
July – Rebellion’s Call
October – Two Player Starter Set Noctis Vs Ardyn
November – Resurgence of Power

Now, the part that you’ve been waiting for. Time for my opinion.

We can see that each Opus of 2022 will have a Starter Set with them. Golbez Vs for Rebellion’s Call. There is so much they can do with these decks. Like have Cecil and family, Rosa, Ceodore, and Cid. Can’t forget Cid. With Baron Soldiers and the Red Wings. Who would have thought that Cecil was from Detroit? Not, those Red Wings you say? And then you can also have the Hooded Man. You should already know that one of the summons will be Odin.

Golbez Deck, will actually be an Archfiends Deck. But will also hold the Imposter King and Kain. When Kane enters the field, if your opponent has the Hooded Man on the field Break the Hooded Man. If the Hooded man enters the field, Break Kane. That would be an interesting card if they did something like that.

Rebellion’s Call. With the Rebel Yell, we want More, More, More. More cards, More Full Arts, More Opuses or Sets. Who’s here for the Rebellion? AVALANCHE? The Rebel Army? The Returners? Will we finally see Locke on the Box Art? Or perhaps even Setzer? Yeah, Setzer is a long shot, but it can happen. They won’t put Firion back on, maybe Leon or Queen Hilda, even though she wasn’t a playable character she was in charge of the rebellion. Then there is always the chance that we’ll just get another FFVII Box Art. Barret? He’s the only AVALANCHE character that hasn’t appeared on the box itself.

Noctis Vs Ardyn. Well, I’m not too sure about this one as I haven’t gotten to finishing XV yet, but Noctis and friends will likely go up against Ardyn and all the knights you fight against. That’s how much I know.

Resurgence of Power, sounds more like a Pantera album. Dimebag Darrel Full Arts. Who shall be on the Box? Who’s coming back into power? Garland? He does come back twice as powerful after he is defeated by the Warriors of Light. Cecil? Nah, he just turns good in a way. Gilgamesh? He does get stronger every time you beat him. Sin? The calm can’t stop him. Ashe? She was just on a box recently.
