Writes Neo after livestreaming a complete playthrough of the Whirlwind mod as part of the Whirlwind Four-Job Fiesta (FJF) event (VOD here):
Hi there! In this video I describe my experience with a Final Fantasy V speed running event! I’m not a speed runner but I had a really good time. This speed running event was special as it used a modified version of Final Fantasy V called Whirlwind with many crazy changes to the game.
The video review is below, so check it out!
