Hi hi! New listener out of Pittsburgh! My name is Jaci, and I'm a huge FF fan- obviously. I do database management by day, and enjoy video games and SciFi shows after escaping from work. Favorite Final Fantasy...for a long time it was VIII, since that was the first one I played. Now, I'd say it's either VI or X. The music from IX is my favorite though...and I loved XIII's battle system...I guess I just have favorite aspects from each game, so it's hard to pick an all-around fav. I do, however, carry a special dislike for XII- it's the only non-online game in the series I have yet to finish. I just really really despise it. Maybe I'll try again though ^.^ I found the podcast just the other day, via Podcast Addict, having exhausted a bunch of youtube videos about FF. Making my way through the review episodes first. Hoping to meet some lovely new people here-so please, feel free to say hello! Cheers to the fans!

Alright, a fellow FFVIII fan! Welcome to the forums. It's a good place to be. It does seem a good place to be! I've never been huge into Reddit and 4chan, and besides those I guess I thought internet forums weren't a thing anymore. I found a few groups here and there online, but forums that are active seem to be a rarity.

My enjoyment of that game seems fairly nostalgia based. But we will see! We shall be playing it, or in my case streaming it,in no time! Also, nice tattoos!!

I feel like my assessment of XII is unfair because I never played more than 12 hours of it. A friend told me that it gets really good "Once you hit 20 or so hours in"- and to me, if I don't like a game by 12 hours, I won't keep playing it. I do need to try again though. Thanks for the tattoo compliment- I'm trying to get one piece of artwork from each of the first 13 games done. Hence why I should try XII again- it feels wrong to leave it out.

Sorry to hear you disliked 12 as i tend to think it is decent, i did have a problem with it for a few reasons the story felt so loose at time and the world so big that I have never finished it but i can't say I found it a bad game. I think they tried many different things and i found that to be refreshing for a series as old as FF to try new things. Though i admit compared to many other FF games it falls below most others but i feel that is just a testament to how good the other games are not as a dis for 12.

Thanks for the welcomes, everyone. Spent some time this morning poking through old threads, found a lot of interesting things on here. And yes- the purple one is Esper Terra. Surprisingly, getting a tattoo anywhere near the armpit is horrifying.

They are cool looking although hard to see on my phone. I have plans to get a big ff tattoo but I not sure which one to do. How did you pick yours.

Well Krinital, I had the same thought you did- I wanted to get a big FF tattoo. But then I couldn't decide what to get, since there are so many things I like...so I thought well, I'll just get one thing from each main game. I was trying to avoid getting specific characters, since I feel that each game is everyone's story- but Vivi is amazing, and my next choice for VI was a Magitech, but that didn't feel right. In the end, Terra is not only one of my fav characters, but she's got a huge tie in with the Espers, so it seemed the obvious choice.
