Riaru's Reviews: Final Fantasy III

Yes Final Fantasy III, game that has been occupying a lot of my time lately. I guess it is pretty addicting for me to have stayed up two nights in a row playing it. So yes onto the story of FF3.

The basic story is: the main character Luneth falls down a hole in a cave. After completing the first dungeon you meet the first crystal, and he tells you that you are one of the chosen ones along wiht three other characters: Arc, Refia, and Ingus.(you meet them all fairly early) Then must go on an epic quest to free the remaining crystals and restore the light to their world. So yes this is the plot in a nutshell, very basic but it does what it has to to set free to explore dungeons. The characters have some hint at personality.

The gameplay as with most of the FF games is turn based battles. In combat it is very simple you use the d-pad to select a command and "A" to input. It controls like most turn based RPGs usually do, not bringing too much more to the table. However, the real diversity lies in the job system. In which you may pick the class as some would put it of each of the four party members. The default job "Freelancer" is pretty crap. "Freelancers" can use low level weapons, armor, and spells. But the jobs later like: White Mage(healer), Black Mage(attack magic), Summoner(can use summons), Ranger(Archer) and so forth. In case you are curioud my party usually consists of a knight, black mage, white mage, and monk.

The graphics are quite good, especially by DS standards, honestly this looks as good as Ninja Gaiden: Dragon Sword and The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass. That and the visual style and designs of characters and monsters is pretty good as well. Sorry not as much to say here. :)

In closing the game should take most players about 10+ hours to complete, meaning it is a fairly average length RPG. And is good to take on the go. I would reccomend it to FF and RPG fans alike.

Good night and good luck.

The Internet Is A Horrible Place



And I think this proves it.

Updates, Side Quests, And Plans For The Future

.... I made a new Twitter account..... What the hell is wrong with me... Be strong I can live through this. http://twitter.com/RiaruJones
And just because I feel like it Austin a.k.a. Killing The Living Is Only A Day Job's Twitter (Go ahead and laugh ^.^) http://twitter.com/KTLIOADJ
And another noteworthy venture is that about a month ago I beat The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass. Woot! Then a few days ago i decided to start a 100% run....
Ugh! This is the most annoying challenge run I have tried. Right now I feel like giving up, I only just got past the Temple of Wind, and wasted about two hours doing the fishing side quest for a Heart Container and still didn't complete it. God do I want to give up and do a normal run but I shall not compromise and I shall not surrender, ever! I'm lucky I have a strategy guide to help me with stuff i may miss. Soon after Phantom Hourglass I may push myself to do a "No Alert" Run on MGS3, on European Extreme difficulty. This might be tougher than LoZ: PH, but I'll find out soon enough :D.

Good night, and good luck.(especially for me^.^)

Metal Gear Rant!


Yo.

I'm a little pissed off right now. Because I recently saw the new E3 trailer of Metal Gear Solid: Rising. First off all I have to say is the asshole who is standing next to Mr. Kojima, the guy who looks like he has a dead ferret on his head. That guy, all he fucking care about is all the money MicroSoft will make with the new MGS game on the 360.

And also I am very fucking pissed about the new main character.... Raiden. First off it probably will be a action oriented game. The fuck is wrong with you Kojima?! Seriously WHY?! WHY Raiden?! Why an action oriented title. Seriously this is MGS we're talking about.

Not to mention the fact I abslutely hate Raiden now because all he is, is a Gray Fox rip off. I should have known this would happen ever since he got that sword in the second game. This is why I started to have a firm dislike of the character Olga Gurlukovich, because she ended up in a cyborg ninja costume. Fuck! Talk about ruining a character.

In closing, I do not have very high hopes for the new Metal Gear Solid: Rising. And once again we stress the issue of no number in the title. Only a subtitle. "Wow he is still stressing this?" You must be saying to yourself. Yeah well shut the fuck up. It greatly pisses me off.

Goodnight and good luck

Have I Been Ignoring You?

Perhaps I have. And I apologize. Please do forgive me. I was planning on updating yesterday, but I think I may have gotten food poisoning or something. It was horrible, couldn't keep anything down, kept throwing up. Damn. But I feel better today, in fact I just ate and haven't thrown up since last night.

Good news. May have a new review or something in a few days. Please do give me a while to plan this out. I am not very pleased with my new reviews. I seem to be rushing things a bit. So I shall start working on a new review tomorrow. Just got over being sick, still need a little time to rest.

TSIOO
Good night and good luck.
