>FFIX finally makes it to steam
>no discount
Don't Squeenix usually do like 25% off or something when they launch these ports?
>>332533835
Why would they give a discount for the best FF game ever?
>>332533835
>25%
No, they do 10% off for a week or two around launch. That tends to be as low as it goes for ~1 year, then they'll drop to 50% during sales after that.
It'd need to actually be released first though.
I know what you mean OP, but they just had their last sale like 2 weeks ago so I wasn't expecting it for this launch.
I just bought FFIX like 5 minutes ago, $15 is ok for me for like 30 hours content.

So long as she speaks with a British/Irish accent I don't mind so long as it isn't terrible, obviously.
>>332537321
What if you can romance her in the HD releasebut only playing as Amarant
>>332538531
Eh, I'd rather have a sequel where she sets out, leaving Fratley behind to go on adventures.I'd be ok with Freya/Amarant though

>Shipper shit.
Fuck off Freya-fag. The thread is dying fast enough as it is.
IX was a bad Final Fantasy. It had absolutely terrible equipment, skill, and ability systems that allowed no room for players to shape their characters in any way. The trance system going off outside of your control was even worse designed than VIII's limit spamming. The combat was slow and boring and the only interesting mechanic AT ALL was the dynamic between Steiner and Vivi, and it didn't really add anything to the game at all. It had a terribly boring setting that's only praised by "classic fans" because it didn't emphasize sci-fi, completely disregarding that Final Fantasy has used sci-fi elements from the start of the series. Your cast consisted of characters like Freya who were completely forgotten by the plot after their usefulness to the story was up, characters like Quina who basically just showed up whenever the game felt you needed a 4th party member and didn't do ANYTHING of any relevance, and characters like Amarant who I'm still trying to figure out why he was added to the game. The protagonist and antagonist being "space alien grim reaper brothers" is by far the worst plot twist in the series, much worse than either the orphanage in VIII or "You're a dream Teedus" could ever hope to be.
The worst part of all? In a series that's known for its innovation in its genre, Final Fantasy IX bitched out and actively BACKTRACKED to boring, outdated, mechanics. At least the early games it was a callback to were innovations of their time like the ATB system in IV, and at least for the PSX titles VII, VIII, and Tactics all tried to do new things with turn-based RPGs, storytelling, and world building even if it didn't please everyone- whereas IX actively decided to say fuck that, and appeal to idiots who want video games to stagnate.
It was boring and had nothing unique going for it. In fact, nothing about the game is particularly memorable. It has no sense of identity for itself and just takes after previous titles.
