    Via DarkmoonEX, FFR Admin:

    Hey there, FFV fans. Next week is the official start of the Final Fantasy Randomizer New Player Program, the Duck Bootcamp 2026: Duck to the Future. The FFR Team has been hard at working cooking up a solid program for you. The kick off will be on Sunday, January 4, at 9:00 PM with the 101 Class reveal stream. From there we’ll have six weeks of training for you to go through and learn everything about FFR.

    The weekly schedule will be:

    • Sundays: 100 Level Class Debut at 9:00 PM EDT on RPGLB Twitch
    • Monday Mornings: 100 Level Async Race Opens at 10:00 AM EDT on FFR Discord
    • Monday Evenings: 100 Level Class Race (Different Seed, Open to All) at 9:00 PM EDT on RPGLB Twitch
    • Wednesdays: 200 Level Class Debut 8:00 PM EDT on FFR Twitch

    Full details are available on the FFR wiki. And once you’ve gone through your training, the Bootcamp will be followed by the Duck Derby, our new player tournament, in late February.

    We hope to see you there!

  • Aspiring Content Creators’ Guild Announced

    Memberships Now Available

    For clymax’s projects, click here. You can also follow him on YouTube or Twitter.

    A guild for aspiring content creators and affiliated with FFV Central has been announced courtesy of clymax.

    Members accepted into the guild will gain access to a private section in the FFV Central Discord. There is no cost to be a member.

    In the Discord section, they can share tips and techniques with like-minded content creators, brainstorm and discuss video concepts, and explore potential collab opportunities in content creation.

    The vision for the guild is that together, we can take on the algorithm better. Just like a full party in the FF series is stronger than going solo.

    Eligibility requirements are as follows.

    1. You’re looking to grow a channel on YouTube. Not on TikTok, IG, Twitch, Facebook, Rumble, etc.
    2. Your channel coverage must include classic Final Fantasy (I-VI) in some way, shape, or form. At least one such piece of content is required to already exist on your channel. Any game version is OK. OK to also cover modern Final Fantasy. OK to also cover other JRPG franchises or other game genres. Classic FF does not have to be the main focus of your channel.
    3. Longform videos, shorts, and livestreams are all OK as a focus.
    4. Your channel must not be monetized and must never have been monetized. Achieving monetization as a guild member will not jeopardize your guild membership.
    5. You are serious about growing your channel and getting and staying monetized, even if it is only as a hobby. You want more than a channel of random gaming or modding clips.
    6. You must meet YouTube’s monetization factor of three uploads in the last ninety days, on a rolling basis.
    7. On your channel, you have not and will not buy subs or views except as permitted by YouTube, e.g., the YouTube Promote feature.
    8. You are not required to be a modder, although modders who are otherwise eligible are welcome.

    Due to the nature of the guild and the community that are being built, membership cannot be guaranteed, although your interest is appreciated. FFV Central reserves the right to decline membership for any reason or for no reason.

    To apply or for more information, please reach out to clymax via the FFV Central Discord or via DM on this website or via Discord.
