Platform FC WS PS

The sales volume is 760,000 copies.

Final Fantasy 2)' was launched on the Nintendo red and white machine 13 years, and the official revision was re-launched. The picture is enhanced 60 times, and the plot transcends the century. This series is the most unforgettable generation for players. The novel system and touching stories captured the hearts of many players at that time. The biggest feature of the second generation is the growth system of' no experience value and no level'. In other words, action is directly related to growth. For example, when a character attacks with many weapons, his arm strength and physical strength will increase; If magic is used much, knowledge and spirit will rise. However, if you attack with weapons frequently, your physical strength will rise, but your intellectual spirit will decline, so it is not easy to create a perfect role. So at the beginning of the game, it is more correct to know what each character is good at. Because the proficiency of weapons and magic will increase with the increase of use times, there is a special skill, which is to attack one's own companions to enhance one's strength.

The important game system of this game is' keywords'. If players can use keywords flexibly, it is not difficult to break down barriers. In the game, players should form the habit of asking questions, especially some main characters, and ask them carefully when asking questions. The rich storyline is also the success of this book. With the Pala Megill Empire calling magic as a national fighting force, all countries in the world are facing a crisis. The master's village was also destroyed by Parra Megill, so the master and his childhood playmates fought against the empire. However, when the enemy attacked, the masters lost contact with their good friend Reinhardt Nicole. There are many partners, and various plots are the main structure of this story. In the quartet, Ferry O 'Neill, Maria and Kay are fixed, and the fourth partner will change as the story goes on. For example: Muse, the master of the White Devil, Joseph, the resistance fighter, Richard, the dragon knight, Prince Gordon of Cassio, Leila the pirate, and finally Reinhardt Nicole. Some of these six partners will sacrifice their lives with the development of the story, making the story of the second generation more fascinating. Of course, the plot arrangement between the protagonist and Reinhardt Nicole is even more amazing for players!

Chocobo, the mascot of this series, was born in the second generation and has a lovely tail, which is loved by many players. If you don't know the plot of the PS version of Final Fantasy, you can learn a little from this drama. If you missed the birth of the PS version of Chocobo, you can also "catch up" from here. This is not only a new milestone in this series, but also a true verification of outstanding works worthy of repeated aftertaste.

The above introduction is WS version.

Final fantasy iii was originally released at 1990, which corresponds to Nintendo's red and white machine and is also one of the most abundant and delicate games on FC.

Classic Review: Final Fantasy 4

Release date 1991July19

Platform SFC WS

The sales volume is 6,543,820,000 copies.

1991July19, Final Fantasy IV was released. SQUARE, which has in-depth research on SFC functions, takes advantage of the performance advantages of the new host to bring players a completely evolved Final Fantasy. The large capacity of 8MB brings finer pictures, more beautiful scenes and more beautiful music. The monster image in the game really has the level of illustration, which shows Yoshitaka Amano's elegant painting style to some extent. Sakaguchi Hironobu's film concept is better reflected in this work. The final sales volume of the game reached 6.5438+0.82 million sets.

Cecil, the leader of the imperial elite Red Wing Army, was very dissatisfied with the baron's oppression and enslavement of other countries by force, so he conveyed his thoughts to the king, but he was hunted down without thinking. So Cecil decided to fight the baron! Soon after, he met Goldberg, who collected crystals for the empire. He arrived in the Hearing Mountains and became a forest ranger. Under the leadership of Gobaz and the Four Demons, the empire got the last four crystals. But the empire didn't win completely, because four other crystals were found underground! Cecil and his companions went underground to the kingdom of the dwarf king, but Gobaz and the devil beat them every time. Just when there seemed to be no hope at all, the sunken spaceship whales appeared and took them to the moon. There, the ancient power of the lunar inhabitants led them into the core of the moon and fought against the prehistoric demon Zemos.

The biggest feature of Final Fantasy 4 is the introduction of ATB system. This real-time combat system with time slot elements makes the boring RPG battle tense and exciting, which has won unanimous praise from players and is still in use today. The gorgeous picture of flying boat in the game is impressive. It is also from this work that SQUARE officially won the overseas market. The American version of Final Fantasy 4 will be released in five months. It is based on the Japanese "simplified version" and is called Final Fantasy 2 in the United States (Square produced an almost complete American version as early as FF2, but it was finally shelved due to distribution channels and its relationship with Nintendo). The work has achieved sales of 340,000 sets in the United States, which started the first shot for SQUARE to enter the international market. FF4 has also made great achievements in artistic achievements. It won the Best Screenplay Award, Best Background Music Award, Best RPG Award, Best Video Game Award and SFC Best Works Award.

At that time, Nintendo had a bad relationship with Sony because of SFC's CD-ROM host incident, but this seemingly episode-like small storm existed long before the birth of the future overlord. ...

The birth of FF4 made Japanese players put forward higher requirements for gorgeous pictures and beautiful sound effects. People have long doubted whether SQUARE can make a breakthrough on the basis of FF4.

Classic review: final fantasy v

Release date: 92. 12.6

Platform SFC PS

Final Fantasy V is the second set of games released by Square on the host Super Nintendo (SFC). Compared with FFEV, FFV pays attention to the plot, and the multi-functional occupation makes the gameplay changeable.

At the beginning of the story, the crystal of the wind broke, the wind stopped, and other crystals lost their essence one after another, and the world began to lose balance. After the hero Bartz rescued Princess Raina of Tecken City, he started a journey to protect the crystal with Raina, Galloff and farris. ...

FFV's story is not bad, it also has a sad plot, but don't expect betrayal, love and other plots. On the contrary, some short stories are also very interesting. For example, I found that the hero Butz seems to have more prospects as a funny artist than a brave man (laughs). Paying attention to the dialogue will find that their dialogue is very interesting, and the little actions of the characters also express rich personality.

Compared with the story, the gameplay of FFV seems to be much more conspicuous. The system of professional ability makes the play quite free, so you don't have to stick to white magic. There are many choices of occupations and abilities, and the collocation can be quite interesting. For example, soldiers equipped with dance can enhance the power of sword dance.

Square has never published an English version of FFV. After the super English version of FFIV, FFIUS is the super English version of FFVI, and PS has no English version of FFV. There is also an English version of FFV online, which should be a British cultural version, and the content is no different from the Japanese version.

to date ...

There is a ruled planet, but there are no victims, dictators, rulers and martyrs. Look, an organization was established in that world. They have nothing to do with the military, but create peace. SeeD members are very special and have crazy and incredible power. In order to join SeeD, you must study hard in Balamb Garden and pass the graduation exam.

A teenager fantasizes about joining SeeD. Now, the fate of the world is in his hands. & ltbr & gt

A powerful witch who can only appear in mythical species has awakened, threatening the peace of all living things on this planet. Her vicious and powerful magic is awesome, but her existence has always been worshipped and praised.

On the day when Squell joined SeeD, he attended a party to welcome new members. When they met Renoir, although they didn't identify themselves at the party, Kerr didn't know he was the leader of the anti-government organization until he met Renoir here!

Anti-government organizations were not impressive in the battle, despite the help of SeeD. All members of anti-government organizations seem to have nothing to do with their actions.

After meeting Lenoa, Skell had a very strange dream. ............

During this period, tragedy happened in the neighboring countries of Gal badia, and they openly waged war on the other side of the world. The President of Galveston badia even supports witches! Skye was sent to assassinate the witch because he suspected that she had something to do with the war there.

But in fact, it's not that simple. Sever, Skye's old enemy, actually helped the witch! Shifar has two loyal bodyguards: Fuujin and Raijin, which also complicates Skull's task.

Highlights of Final Fantasy Series:

Magic—

The 8th generation gives people a more real feeling. The power of magic is no longer emitted by "magicians" who only exist in the fantasy world, nor by "magic gems" who do not exist at all, but by the enemy. This is more credible for those of us who live in modern cities, isn't it?

The eighth generation didn't read much. There seem to be 40 kinds, 49 kinds of magic. But one thing is certain: there must be hidden magic! And very, very exaggerated. I once did a magic trick with my golden finger, which seems to be an absolute instant magic: that is, no matter who it is, including the last BOSS witch (you read it correctly, I typed it correctly), 100% will die! ! ! It's basically like this: after the magic, the screen turns to the green prairie. In this seemingly calm place ... a line jumps out: at the end, the other party will die (terrible).

Compared with the 7 th generation of 2 1 magic, the 8 th generation is much more. I don't know at the moment, but now I'm sorting it out. ...

Summon the beast-

This thing has existed since the third generation. I remember I was very excited about it. Up to now, I still admire the Dragon King "Bahamut" the most. The 8th generation has 16 basic summoners, 6 card summoners and 22 * * *. In addition, the integration of summoning animals has greatly affected the ability of the holders, and its role is much greater than usual.

Classic Review: Final Fantasy IX

Date of issue: July 7, 2000

Platform PS

The sales volume is 5 million

Final Fantasy, a world-class representative work with a total sales volume of more than 6.5438+0.7 million in Japan and more than 27 million in the world, was launched on PlayStation as the last and strongest ninth-generation work at the end of the 20th century. In this work, the concept of returning to the origin is emphasized, and the symbol "crystal" of the works seven generations ago reappears. Under the master Yoshitaka Amano's interpretation of the background, the world view is full of dreams and fantasies. Although the spirit emphasizes "returning to the original point", the requirements for picture presentation and animation image are higher than' ⅷ'; Many new elements have also been added to the system. So we should not only be nostalgic, but also let everyone have a sense of freshness that is constantly evolving.

In terms of system, the special skill "ァビリティ" is the focus this time. Each role has its own unique skills, but it can't be used at the beginning. These skills must come from the equipment of props, and fighting is the basis of exercise ability. With the accumulated AP experience value in each battle, you can learn skills when the grid is full, and the learned skills will be automatically remembered by the character without props. The "synthesis house" provides the service of synthesizing props, and the synthesized new props may also have new skills for the characters to learn. In addition, the famous summoners in FF series also appear in new shapes, such as Bahamut, the dragon king reborn from the fire, Odin who appeared in the sun with a big sword, etc. Besides the summoner's body, they are closely related to the whole story. In the design of small games unrelated to the story,' ⅸ' is not sloppy, such as the skipping rope and card game of magician Bibi, which increases the overall gameplay and relieves a little nervous rhythm. Under the rigorous production of every detail, the performance of FF ⅸ will be wonderful.

Everyone's heart is full of anxiety, fear, ideals, persistence ... all live to explore a world of their own, and the protagonists of FF VII are exploring and creating their own world under such circumstances. At the moment when the generations of PlayStation consoles alternate, FF ⅸ' s return to nature has drawn a perfect full stop for players in this century. The original meaning of' Final Fantasy' is' Final Fantasy', so players should be able to have this experience this time.

Sales volume is 6 million.

The' FF' series of new works, which have attracted much attention from players, has finally come on the market. The game describes the city being attacked and destroyed by an unknown monster in a sports meeting. Teenage Tidus is one of the survivors, but somehow he went beyond time and space to 1000 years later, and then he got to know the girl summoner' You Na' and started a heroic legend of love and hate. With the advanced performance of PS2, the fluency of the game has been greatly improved, which has improved the strangeness criticized by players in the past and will lead players into a brand-new adventure world.

For the growth of character ability, this game has designed a brand-new training mode and adopted a' sphere level' similar to a desktop game. The accumulated experience value of all players in the battle can be chosen by the players themselves to learn new skills, but there is no fixed order and requirement for skill learning. As long as they pay attention to the priority of skill learning in advance, they can practice according to their planned progress in the shortest time.

In order to increase the interest of the game, interesting games are interspersed in the plot. One of the most distinctive features is the water polo match, which is somewhat similar to the football match "Wings of Angels" a few years ago. Players will play a game in a giant water polo and beat their opponents in a limited time. This is a very attractive design, but don't waste your adventure.
