Name a better introPlease. It's been 22 years and no games intro has gripped me as much as this one. There must be something else

How long does that part last? I got up tothe part where your party splits off into three different branches for the first timeand I wasn't that interested by the game.

Bayonetta's intro.
>>338145041
In the final fantasy series alone, FF8 was infinitely better.
>liberi fatali begins playing
>foreshadowed sequences of what's to come
>all overlacing the brutal duel between Seifer and Squall that prefaces the start of the game in the infirmary
>>338145429
FF7's intro was everything up to leaving Midgar. It was good, but not better than 6's.
>>338145257
Too bad that intro set standards so high that the rest of the game didn't match.

Well you were definitely past the intro by that point.
I consider the intro to be everything up until Terra and Locke are out of Narshe.
That being said, the three branches segment is widely considered to be the worst part of the game

Just playing FFVI for the first time and I have to agree, OP. Seeing The magitek armors walking towards the city in a snowstorm with the music playing literally brought me to tears.

I don't know, but for sure Terra's theme is one of the best pieces Uematsu's has ever composed.

I love it, it makes you feel like the world is a big place and all these characters are a part of it.
A lot of memorable moments happen during those section too.
>>338146125Maybe they did, who knows what abuse she suffered while under mind control
>>338146307
I actually like it too, but most people I've talked to don't. The only thing I don't like is how disproportionately long the Sabin branch is
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gkSBmi2HU_Y
Batman Arkham Asylum started out immediately by telling us that this is not Nolan shit, this is real deal.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vvCLqEhZP3U
>>338146125
Who, the guards or the moogles when she feel through the ground?
The latter I could understand considering how she's been depicted in every other game since then.
>>338145890
The only bad path in the three branches segment is Locke's.
Sabin and Terra's are A+ to me, personally
>>338146257
It just oozes adventure.
>>338146257
That will always just be the overworld theme to me. This is Terra's theme.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nGMeiRCH_n8I know I'm wrong, but I don't care
>>338146451
I liked Locke's and the feel that you were sneaking around an empire occupied town.
Terra/Banon's route was just...sorta there.
I know it's not very flashy or anything..
But it's just so perfect.

A train with terrorists on board arriving to a station for a reactor they intend to blow up.
A play which is cover for a kidnapping of royalty.
Ff6 is a fucking brilliant glorious game, but let's not pretend it's better than 4, 5, 7 or 9

FF5 is by far the best game in the series but you have to admit that its intro isn't very gripping.

>a meteor crashes nearby
>a dude and his chocobo rides off to investigate
>>338146879

One of the most overrated games of all time. It was only noteworthy for its place in relation to other console RPGs at the time, but within the next two years several other series and its own sequel surpassed it.
>>338146974
When is the beat going to kick in?
>>338147167
This nigga gets it.
FF is at its best when it tells storytelling to fuck itself and doubles down on gameplay and/or style...because they strangely write better stories when they don't try.
>>338146863
always get chills.
Dark souls had a great intro.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vpAqgIe05So
>>338147147
I don't know if this even counts. The intro itself is only okay, but it's pretty much entirely carried by having the best opening theme ever inserted into a video game.
On the bright side, that means you don't need to play Chrono Cross because the opening is also the best part.
>>338147306
>and doubles down on gameplay
That's actually why I love X-2. I pretend there's no story and just go around levelling dresspheres I usually don't use searching for better strategies, grinding the dungeon or just capturing fiends.
>>338147147
Not too partial to the intro, but the ending song will never be surpassed and puts its sister song from Xenogears to shame.

Almost always had to watch it before I played the game.

2. The two books are white and black, look closely.

>>338145041
This was a good intro especially for its time.
What really set it apart was the soundtrack though.
as far as other contenders though... i give you this:

According to supplementary material, cloned books were bestowed to the populace by the government in order to find a Gestalt that could control the others and keep them sane.
For most people, the books just sped up the process.
>>338154297
What happened to the rest of the books? IIRC there's only 3 in NIER and only 2 of them talks and the third is some optional mission
Not saying this was THE best, but I really liked it and set the tone and atmosphere very well.
>>338145581

The game is about the story, the world and the emotions, not factoids. What happened outside of the necessary context is irrelevant.

Dunno what you're talking about man. After the first bout with Ultros I gotta say I fucking loved the branching story lines there.
Like others said, it gave the world a larger scope, gave a sense of how the Empire's affecting others, and introduced a lot of new characters. Some of best moments are there too, especially Kefka during Sabin's branch. Shit, Sabin's alone was great just cuz you get Shadow, Cyan, and the Phantom Train.
Last of us. I don't care if this game is shit, ellie is ellen page, ps3 has no gaems, muh fps, citizen kane of gaming or reaction images.
This game has the best intro up to date.
