Well, you aren't Xkeeper, so I don't think you have anything to worry about. :tongue:

what happened with them?  i recognize the name "Xkeeper" from lurking on Acmlm; he was a mod, right?

Besides, you've earned enough credibility from a couple other members so it may be offset. In a related matter, MathOnNapkins really likes your LttP documents.

cool!  he's got some great documents, too.

My link originally went to a post by somebody named "Disch-" which has now been deleted. I really wish I would've saved it. :sad:

are you talking about the post where "Disch-" remarks how a previous post of his was deleted without warning?  that was curious... and then that post itself disappeared. :/

I usually avoid this section of the site but I couldn't resist clicking on The Top 10 Greatest Super Nintendo Games Of All Time. Now, for the most part these are good games and I'd even list most of them as my personal favorites, but there are so many factual errors in here that I just can't take it seriously. Does anyone even moderate these things or do a little basic fact checking before they go up on the main page of the site?

"Kinda". It's not as if the vast information posted is ever really checked.

Terra. Her special ability (Morph) is much better than Celes's special ability (Run-stupid-ic).

Ha ha! That is so clever!

:picard:

I couldn't even get past the third page, I cannot tolerate GameFAQs-level stupidity anymore.

>.> I agree with that. But then again, I'm an offensive player to the point of not defending myself right(Such as using Runic to basically disable several bosses.). I suuuuuuuuck

Oh, don't get me wrong, outside of a few special occasions Runic is pretty much worthless.

Seriously though, "Run-stupid-ic?" How old is this guy? :lame:

The thing that pisses me off is when they use lists over a year old. Often times because of that, they contain even more inaccuracies than that one has. They also have a tendency to use the same list for two or more days...

I check the lists out of curiosity. They've introduced me to a few games.

I don't remember when (except that it was last year or earlier), but SuperSaiyanTien called FFMQ the "first game" in the series.

Ultimately, the way to improve Runic is make it a status where it is automatically used as a reaction to Runicable magic (think Retort w/o being buggy) and perhaps not be a used/reacted when allies use Runicable spells... (unless Charmed).

Maybe he means in the first FF on the SNES? I remember seeing SuperSaiyanTien's name on the board a lot when I was messing around with the FF6a for the GBA was announced.

FF2us still came out first. Mystic Quest came out after FF5 was out in Japan - and contrary to popular opinion it had nothing to do with us not getting FF5, you can blame FF6 for that.

Well, look at it this way, it could be worse. If the translations (fan or official) for the game were any indication, I would've been pissed. On the other hand, FF6's character development was better for the most part (FF5's storyline was overall better though)...

Still, the translators (both fan and official) would be scruntinized even more than they are now.

I brought up SuperSaiyanTien because of how his list got in despite the inaccurate FFMQ entry.
Even before that, in 2006...
Quote from: SuperSaiyanTien
Let's explain this in small words for you. No one is discussing the game that's coming out for the DS. That would be the original FF3, which we'll refer to as FF3j for clarity. The game we're discussing is FF6, which was (mis)labeled as FF3 when it was brought here to America. We'll refer to this game as either FF6 or FF3a. When Vehek mentioned the original, he was talking about FF6, which is the exact same game as FF3a except for translation and a couple of small feature and bug changes. FF3j is totally unrelated and was never brought up by anyone except you.


Well actually, if you had a bit of sense you would know that the FF3 that is being forwarded to the DS was the original intended to be put out for the Snes (Aka this game) however, they bumped it for bad materials.

It was supposed to be:

Final Fantasy Mystic Quest
Final Fantasy 2 (Cecil, Kain)
Final Fantasy 3 (The one being released on the DS)
Final Fantasy 4 (missing)
Final Fantasy 5 (The one with the Crystals and Jobs)
Final Fantasy 6 (This one)

Ext.


So in reality, it could be considered FF3 and 6 as FF6 and 3 got switched. FF6 was supposed to be a Remake/Sequel to this.
:wtf:
Of course, it didn't take long for everyone to point out how wrong this list was. I wonder whether he was really that stupid or if he was just trolling.

There's a good chance that there is a little of both involved here...

It could simply be that this is the result of the XBOX generation... those who have little or no perspective of what the games of the olden days were like.... and having trouble starting FF3US.
