FFT is one of the best games I've ever played. Playing again right now.

The weird battles I've gotten are the ones mentioned here. 10-11 monks, knight and bull demon, dragons-behemoths-hydras vs. you a behemoth and a black chocobo. I've also gotten a small party of humans vs. you and a red dragon, and half a dozen calculators (not that hard).

Yep. Ignore the rest of the game (even though it's an extremely good SRPG). FFT's plot is one of the best out there. There are more twists and turns than almost anything else, and it also has my favorite ending of any game, but that's because it's just like the rest of the game. It's a thinker's plot, that's for sure.

I kind of like the way that although it ends happily, tradgedy is also interwined.

Delita is my hero. He's like the Raskolnikov of video games. A very appealing character just because he has so many conflicting interests.

It's a happy ending, but only in the fact that they beat wossname, and the brother and sister survived. It's not like FF 8&9, etc where it's all good. I like those endings, but this seems a more, I dunno, mature way of ending it.

> the brother and sister survived

Welllll, I don't think you can safely say that. Based on the ending, I'd say it was more likely a hallucination. On the other hand, I very much doubt TG Cid would have died one way or the other. That guy was too powerful for his own good.

It was a powerful ending even if you do look at in the optimistic way that I do.

Especially the way he manipulated everyone.

even if Ramza and his sister did survive, it wasn't a completely happy ending what with Ovelia dying...

Jeebus, please write "spoilers ahead", I haven't finished it yet. I mentioned it was my second time, but I never totally finished it the first time

maybe we're lying to try and make you anticipate something that isnt going to happen.
or, if you don't believe that, then... they started it!

Poor Ovelia, That power hungry son of a b*tch Delita. After seeing that I no longer care for Delita.....

All he wanted was a good place in the world. Like he said. You fight in the fifty world war and when it's over the nobles forget about you

***SPOILER ALERT, TOO***
I don't like Delita. Even though his goal is good, but the way he achieved it is not 'heroic'. Furthermore, he killed Ovelia! I'm so mad about that. Sorry, I can't remember the reason. The only thing I remember is Delita brought her some flowers, then I forgot about the conversation, and then Delita stabbed her. Way to go man, you kill your queen, and you lost your friends. Satisfied? I even like Gafgarion than him.

EfrainMan and others who haven't beatten FFT. If you haven't figured it out by now, I'm heading into major spoiler territory (but then again, the thread's been there for two posts now).

fujita: That's the point. Delita is called the hero of the war, even though he's a traitor. Ramza is called a traitor, even though he's the hero of the war. It's all about being in the right place and the right time. Delita killed Ovelia because his anger could not be quenched until he got rid of everyone he felt was responsible for the plight of his family. Even though Ovelia was not directly responsible, she represented the last remnant of the corrupt power that Delita fought against for so long using any means necessary.

for some reason, i vaguely remember that he killed her to completely unite the continent, with him being the only ruler... then again, i've played many RPGs since then, so i'm probably confusing it with another game.

Trying to remember the plot of that game is a nightmare, but playing it was a dream.
