💎 Final Fantasy 1 Beginner Club - Home Thread

Of course, I should have thought of that. Need a list of tracks however.

I considered that but that means that I need to gather the images and figure out how to stuff them into a poll… Help wanted.

Noted.

Is that actually a character in the game or just an 8bit theater meme? There’s a woman telling you it’s the “capital of dreams” but the two soldier in town have unrelated lines.

I did add the dancer though, which was more memorable for me.

It would be way too many options so I guess we could simply express our favourite pick by simply posting in the thread, it’s way too much work otherwise for many options that won’t ever be picked.

Oh I was thinking that we could just gather a bunch of nomination for cool sprites here and put those in the vote. Maybe a dozen enemies or so. I don’t think we need “wolf palette swap #4” in there.

I thought about it but it’s not actually the original sprite! And the other is a ripoff.

Those are pretty good options. Tyrannosaur comes to mind, partly because of how derpy he looks, partly because you’ll never see him in a normal run, and partly because of the absurdity of running into an ancient earth dinosaur in the desert. This is also basically a D&D ripoff - there’s an entire section of the old monster manual with just regular-ass dinosaurs drawn badly.

They actually made him look dumber in the PR, I think.

I also like the derpy wyverns:

I actually have a funny wyvern-related thing to share that I discovered today but it’ll have to wait until we get there in the FF2 club.

Best item? Can be anything from a potion to a weapon

It needs to fit the poll format, I don’t know if discourse will let me create a poll with 300 entries…

I thought maybe “best key item” but that feels a bit uninteresting. Also, it’s obviously THE CUBE.

If we are going for derpy, my favorite is the hellhound:

Looks like a sad old toothless dog you are about to put down. But if we are going for best overall for non boss, I like the gygas. Still holds up!

I selected what seemed like the most memorable tracks:

Let me know if you think I’m missing something worthy.

I didn’t hear the Game Over track a lot because I didn’t die much and I wouldn’t spend a lot of time on the death screen even when it happened, but it’s pretty damn good IMO.

Derelict Keep is not in the original version (Castle Cornelia is reused instead) so I’m not sure what to do. So far I only added poll options that existed in the original version.
