Topic: Super "What Are You Thinking?" ReBirth

Naaaaah. LoL, I'm not banning anyone for insulting me. The discussion that's about to take place is far more enjoyable.

Yeah though I don't think I want to take part of it beyond the Final Fantasy 4 quip.

[Protoman Blues]

I never played FFIV, so I have no idea what you're talking about!

[Quickman]

Oh boy, I'll get the popcorn!

Well in terms of the entire series I think that one has the best story, IMO. And I could have mentioned Lufia and the Fortress of Doom but that's pretty damn obscure.  

[Mirby]

[tornado fang] yeah lufia

[Sakura Leic]

I seriously need to sit down and play it someday, but yeah for the time that was an amazing story.

[Quickman]

Someone light the Zan signal!  I smell bullshit in that topic.

[Sakura Leic]

Or Hypershell of that matter, then we can have yet another circular debate that goes absolutely nowhere!

The moment he mentioned the Wiki already sealed his fate.

[Sakura Leic]

The only problem is that argument isn't going to end because you can never win an argument with an idiot or when it's an opinion argument.

[Mirby]

FF6 has an amazing story as well, considering that every playable character has their own arc within the game (something that was planned for the game from the start).

And yes, light the Zan signal.

While FF6 is my favorite game I think the story could have been better, especially with the bullshit of Kefka not destroying the world.   I like 4 better because it was more concise.

[Quickman]

I have a Mabel on my lap.

[Mirby]

Yeah, I suppose so. But I also think that the destruction of the world was necessary for Terra to reach her full potential, and for other characters to realize their true potential as well. Without that, I don't think Locke would've been able to finally let go of Rachel, or Setzer shed the ghosts of his past either.

No I meant like it should have been more destroyed.

[Mirby]

Oh. Fair enough. Though I suppose if it was more destroyed then Kefka wouldn't have had anyone to torture. And where's the fun in that?

also this

best i could do on such short notice.

[Protoman Blues]

For all I know he could be right. However, in the original US X2 game, there was no mention of Serges/Wily.

There was no mention period, it's a story idea that was scraped.

[Protoman Blues]

So it's not mentioned in the Japanese version of the game? 

[Sakura Leic]

Not at all, it's pretty much just scrapped idea/fan theory.

Oh. Fair enough. Though I suppose if it was more destroyed then Kefka wouldn't have had anyone to torture. And where's the fun in that?

The thing is that Kefka doesn't care about torture, he wants to destroy the world because he's a nihilist.

And I think this video kinda helps my point when these guy poke fun at the light of judgement thing.

[Quickman]

Got a storm bearing down on me capable of producing quarter-size hail.

Should be fun!

[Sakura Leic]

Did that guy just claim that he was a novelist?

[Quickman]

Yes he did.

Also, Shakespeare isn't the pinnacle of high culture.  Granted, he's up there, but if you really want to be a pedantic ass, read Tolstoy and Chaucer.

[Sakura Leic]

And didn't Shakespeare steal other people's works/popularized them?

[Quickman]

I'm not about to go into that territory.  Every time I hear Shakespeare in an argument, though, the person had only read Romeo and Juliet.

Here's the thing: Romeo and Juliet was trashy teen romance written for teens.  That was the entire point of the play.  Thus, it's not a bastion of high literature.  It was the Twilight of the Elizabethan era.
