I’ve been in Doom, Silent Hill, Fatal Frame/Project Zero, Legend of Zelda, Chrono Trigger, Kingdom Hearts and an non-existing Castlevania-game, but not in FF yet.
To me Final Fantasy doesn’t sound like the most interesting game to be in.
That would get really boring really quick. Even if you have a lucid dream every other night, and they last ten minutes, even a short game would take a few months to beat. And that’s not even considering memorizing all the small parts of the game irl and such.
Honestly, just wait 10-20 years, technology will get to the point where you don’t need to LD to do that.
Some people can experience a hundred years within an hour, so I think that a week within ten minutes is enough. And think about that that you never backtrack, you move quickly, you can remmeber things that have never happened…
not really. Dreams are pretty much in real time. You might feel like you have a really long one, but chances are there are a lot of things that didn’t really happen.
Honestly though, I’m not a huge fan of the series… (SEGA and Phantasy Star forever!!!) Reno has just kinda become my universal nickname over the years.
Oh, and I knew what you meant painocus, I was just kidding. Yeah, the standard, “you hit me, I hit you” battle system of the Final Fantasy series wouldn’t be very fun. I would probably just forget the game and just visit places and kill things!
This is an interesting topic since visualizing a world from an RPG (FF, CT, etc) is something I have often tried to do when I attempt to LD. It’s very tough for me to visualize an entire world and the characters within it… though I pulled it off nearly perfectly once, with a pretty bad end result that has deterred me from trying again.
I wouldn’t mind trying again, but the difficulty of it is what stops me most of the time. If anyone has any tips, I wouldn’t mind hearing them!
Chrono Trigger, Chrono Cross, Alundra, FFVII, FFVIII, FFIX, MGS, Suikoden and Suikoden 2 are the games I like, hope anyone has played games like Alundra (very similar to Zelda)
I’m planning out an FF LD, but the battles won’t be turn based - they’ll be like real life, but with FF abilties. In my next LD, I’ll travel to some locations in the FF series and perhaps fly an airship, fight Sephiroth or even ride a chocobo
about the “100-year dreams” thing, im pretty sure they call that speed-solving, its a technique that scientists havent quite figured out yet, it has to do with slowing the brains pulse so that your dreams will last longer amounts of time, there is one man, who spends an entire lifetime in every one of his dreams.
everyone has a different dream-time, mine can last only a few seconds and im awake, or i can spend an entire week in a dream. (20 days was my best time)
not sure what contributes to each persons dream-time, but some peoples dreams just last longer than others.
