My favorite game? Oh god this is painful. Choosing one is pretty difficult, but choosing one would have to be one of my all time favorite games that made me enjoy games in general.. Final Fantasy IX
This game published by Squaresoft quickly became my favorite game back when I played it with my older brother back in 2010. I wasn't actually a teenager but nobody follows the age demographic. Well some people do, I don't. Inside this game lied a compelling story that really connected with all the characters as does every other Final Fantasy game. The balance in this game was great as one could alter the roles by themselves whether it was to only use certain types of weapons (The characters use weapons to combat monsters or other characters sword,claw,staves they can also use magic.) The game itself was pretty challenging to say the least trying to combat certain enemies turned into an advanced strategy as one reaches the later part of the game. But my favorite part of the game was the involvement of Vivi the Black Mage. Black Magic is basically fire, thunder, blizzard things of that accord or even something more advanced like a black hole. Anywho, Vivi's involvement in the game was really touching. He was given a story, a purpose in his life. |
Spoiler Alert:
Vivi is a black mage and with all black mages in this games had a time limit. Vivi wanted to find out why he was made and what he really was. The fact that many people wanted him to live made the ending all the more sad. After playing the game and connecting with the characters, Vivi perishes or stops as the game uses that term for black mages. There was an end game quote for him, as he said to Zidane who he couldn't meet anymore.

- I always talked about you, Zidane. How you were a very special person to us, because you taught us all how important life is. You taught me that life doesn't last forever. That's why we have to help each other and live life to the fullest. Even if you say goodbye, you'll always be in our hearts. So, I know we're not alone anymore. Why I was born... How I wanted to live... Thanks for giving me time to think. To keep doing what you set your heart on... It's a very hard thing to do. We were all so courageous... What to do when I felt lonely... That was the only thing you couldn't teach me. But we need to figure out the answer for ourselves... I'm so happy I met everyone... I wish we could've gone on more adventures. But I guess we all have to say goodbye someday. Everyone... Thank you. Farewell. My memories will be part of the sky...
