Final Fantasy IX

[tmq]

I'm new to RPG game so I have several question about this game before I purchase one. Anyone please help!

1. Is this game something like Parasite Eve II or Residenti Evil (I like this type of game :-)

2. Is the way of shooting something like the above two games (ie. pressing some button to aim and another button to shoot)


Thanks in advance.

1. Not really. The games you mention are of the action genre, RPGs tend to have a slightly slower pace with more dialog and character development.

2. Sort of. Battles are done on a turn basis. You have a basic set of commands which your character can perform after selecting with the main buttons which in turn usually leads to a more sophisticated list of commands (for example, choosing Magic leads to a listing of the variety of Magic your character can use). Then, using the Dpad, you select which opponent you'd like to attack, then press a button to confirm. There's really no concept of "aiming" in the FF series, your character does this automatically.
