easy, Clive.
Next question.
fpbp, and it's not even close. Clive is a great protagonist.
Clive is probably the best FF protag maybe besides Cloud.
if that is true,final fantasy really has no good protagonist then
Agreed. FF16 has a lot of flaws and a lot of undeveloped characters, but Clive ain't one of them. Great VA too.
Noctis isn't awful though, but his game does him dirty.
clive was the only good part of 16
I actually liked a lot of characters in the game. There's a much better game in there, I swear.
Noctis
Jack
Chaos?!
I am
>Currentshit homolust contest
no.
Terra, Cloud, Cecil.
Also this guy.
Bart
also
The only correct answer.
A protagonist needs to actually be a character. Noctis isn't that to begin with, he's a self-insert. Clive is boring but at the bare minimum he actually is a character
I like both.
Oh good, so you're finally admitting that FF16 was the same kind of trash as FF15?
Noctis die without even kissing his girl so Clive
Bottom would look the same with some beard stubble
The one who doesn't have lgbt shit in his game.
None of them. Both are shit.
Again?
Well, repeating this will keep the sperg from Melbourne contained away from the VII Rebirth threads at least.
Clive, obviously.
inc
Clive won
I didn't have to watch an anime to see Clive's past.
Clive won
The absolute deranged lunacy of that thread. Fricker would go to any length to defend XV.
Was sort of hoping mods would jump in at the last minute and expose all the samegayging. Not that it wasn't obvious of course, just that it would be extra funny to see right at the end.
BASED anon delivers.
are you asking like, who is hotter?
Barry has been defending XV for so long children born the year he started are now old enough to post on Ganker
holy hell
barry should adopt some children to defend FFXV for him
Pretty sure he's unemployed. He can't even support himself. Imagine the neglect the children would have while he defends XV
yeah no that's already been happening
Clive, he was in a good game
are you gonna samegay "noctis" in this thread as well?
Clive. The only ff protag more unlikable than Noctis is Lightning.
Truth. They even have the same problem. From the start of both games the supporting characters try to shove the opinion of how great the protagonist is down my throat without establishing it first.
XVI's characters shit all over XV's, but both of their stories are comparably moronic. XVI wins this category.
Yuffie!
Who cares about a turd fight. Ganker is JACK turf.
The true answer is Jack would respect Clive's strength, and Clive would respect Jack's strength.
Jack:
> I DON'T CARE ABOUT EIKONS I ONLY CARE IF YOU'LL HELP ME KILL CHAOS
Clive:
> iquestionwhetherthisisrightformetodobutitismychoicetohelpyoukillchaosandthayswhatmatters
Then Jack uppercuts a Behemoth into the air and Clive air juggles it for a few minutes.
Noctis was so boring. They should have kept some elements of Versus XIII and leaned into the emo edgelord personality more instead of the milquetoast shit we got. There’s nothing unique about not liking veggies and enjoying trips with your friends.
Serious question for English speaking Anons (and anons who play in English)
Do you prefer the American style VA's that were used for FF15 or the British and European VA's that were used for FF16?
Question only for the English dub here, I'd like to know what is more pleasing to the ear even if you aren't English I suppose, British and European or American English for a Final Fantasy game?
The VA for XVI as well as the cutscene direction is the best in the series. Playing the Rebirth demo makes it even more apparent
Thank you for the honest replies Anons, there will be some people very happy to hear their hard work was appreciated, much love xx.
British 10 times out of 10.
The direction that FF16 took with its voice acting is what future FF’s should strive to be, at least for all medieval-like or fantasy settings. Going back to campy generic JRPG dialogue is retrogressive.
I find American VA's grating these days. It doesn't help that a number of them are vocal about hating gamers
The voice acting and direction for 16 was phenomenal, it's probably the first time I played through the entire game in English despite the JP option being available.
It would depend on the setting. For FFXVI's setting the British studio was very obviously the right choice.
What I fear most for the rumored FF IX remake is getting California VA's for that. Steiner won't be right without some NORF accent.
I just want a Dissidia with Clive, Jack, and Zack. Also Noctis was in that shitty Dissidia game.
Nomura mentioned wanting to make a new one in an interview last week. But FFs next anniversary isn’t until 2027 so even if it was being made, we wouldn’t see it until then if we’re lucky.
>Nomura mentioned wanting to make a new one in an interview last week.
Cool
>But FFs next anniversary isn’t until 2027 so even if it was being made, we wouldn’t see it until then if we’re lucky.
I can hold out till then.
Too many cool characters were left out of Dissidia
Where the frick was Auron
Clive.
Barry is actually mentally ill isn't he?
noctis
>Protagonist
I like them both equally
>World
They both had squandered potential, but I liked exploring XV's more
>Gameplay
Enjoyed both, but XV had more variety and combat to pull off in the end. XVI's felt tighter but more limited. However the DLC fight in XVI is the peak between both of them, so XVI wins this one out
>Graphics
XV looks better. Those chocobos, man.
>Music
XV, except for XVI's "chase the flame" which is great
>Side characters
Equal. XVI had a great albeit underutilized supporting cast. XV's band of bros are forever imprinted in my brain.
>overall
I like both, but XV appealed to my heart, which is what FF should always strive to do. I had to warm up to XVI after initial disappointment. So overall XV > XVI for me, but I'm still looking forward to the Leviathan DLC
>Closing thoughts
People who play XIV should kill themselves and refrain from ever talking about FF games.
>They both had squandered potential, but I liked exploring XV's more
I would hope so, XVI had the worst exploration I've ever experienced in a video game.
Clive cus noctis looks gayer
God damn, the comparison isn't even close. Noctis was such a pathetic loser compared to Clive.
Clive. But if it was Nomura's Noctis, then his Noctis would be better
Clive, but he might have been VA carried.
No one likes Noctis. He's Lightning if Lightning wasn't frickable.
Clive got canon ingame sex. Not some made up novel to damage control what a limp dick Noctis was.
Magnificent Goddess and Fragrant Rose...
Anorexic Noodle you mean
would
Purest Rose and Heroine of Epic Myth I mean.
"She walks in beauty, like the night
Of cloudless climes and starry skies;
And all that’s best of dark and bright
Meet in her aspect and her eyes;
Thus mellowed to that tender light
Which heaven to gaudy day denies.
One shade the more, one ray the less,
Had half impaired the nameless grace
Which waves in every raven tress,
Or softly lightens o’er her face;
Where thoughts serenely sweet express,
How pure, how dear their dwelling-place.
And on that cheek, and o’er that brow,
So soft, so calm, yet eloquent,
The smiles that win, the tints that glow,
But tell of days in goodness spent,
A mind at peace with all below,
A heart whose love is innocent!"
Her underarm game makes up for it
Unironically sex. We were too harsh on her.
better than noctis
Well Noctis looks like a giant gay so the other guy
The Versus trailers were better than XV and XVI put together
So who would win a a fight powerscale wise out of all the FF protags?
Tidus with Break Damage Limit clears
Lightning (when taking into account Lightning Returns)and Noctis, but they're amped by waifugay plot armor or Armiger/Lucis ring mcguffins.
Clive is probably the strongest inherently followed by Terra in Esper form.
Esper Terra was who I thought of as well.
the ones that fought Cloud of Darkness
Cloud isn't even the strongest in his own party. Barret can attack infinitely and Cait Sith outright one-shots everything. This isn't even going into glitches which funny enough I think Cloud is excluded from performing
Game Mechanics and glitches aside, I meant more along the lines Story and lore wise but okay. Like take Ramza, he went solo against Knights with more skill and powers then him and still won. Taking into the fact that canon wise he was just a squire.
Ramza can scream like a motherfricker, though.
the even funnier irony is Barret is also the biggest Overflow abuser. They did not thoroughly think through Missing Score's effect when making it. Even Death Penalty takes a lot more set up than it
Zidane, Lighting or Clive
The rest are significantly lower on a power scale
Lightning is a literal universe buster
Under her I think it's Zidane and Vincent as planetary threats, Clive, Noctis and Terra are probably just underneath them since they can destroy entire cities pretty easily
how do I clivemaxxing?
Lightning Rod, Rift Slip, Dancing Steel and Gigaflare.
Get your limit break stomp cancels down and don’t use the big eikon supers. They’re not worth it, and you’re damage output is already high enough if you know how to maintain agression https://youtu.be/3VsZ7VhItZo?si=DkIECnGCU2ex_2Mw
?si=g48-0jcUCHiacULF
Does this work as well on a boss like Barnabas as on a generic mook like a minoataur though?
Yes. He’s smaller so you’ll have to be precise with your stomps, but you can do it on the humanoid bosses.
When the fujck am I getting Clive's game on PC
Clive was the best FF protagonist of the last 20 years.
Noctis is such a garbage non character he belongs to the top 3 shittiest FF protagonists
Clive is a 10/10 character in a 3/10 game
Noctis is a 1/10 character in a 1/10 game
