Final Fantasy IX is an entirely different game.
Picture a man going on a journey beyond the reaches of his imagination,
now picture he has a prehensile tail. This is the main character of the
series, Zidane Tribal. You play as this puckish thief as he
encounters danger, creepy monsters, and the occasional girl. Yes, this
skirt chaser is going to attempt to save the world. With him is a motley
cast of magic users, children, a run away princess, her faithful knight,
a rat-faced female warrior, and a a Qu with a big tongue. This may
strike you as odd, but so does the entire game. Time after time again
you will find an endearing and hilarious sense of humour in everything
from character interaction to attacks.

Meet Kuja, the real villian of the
story, Garland, the maker of Zidane and Kuja. Why are they more special in
the way they were made than the others of their same race, why do they
exist? Is there more to why Queen Brahne buys her weapons from Kuja? What
about Vivi? Has he got any slight connections and similarity between him
and Zidane?

It is clear that while certain things from the
series remain and will always be present, such as chocobos and the
ever-adorable moogles, Squaresoft's Final Fantasy is subject to
changes. With Squaresoft, however, few changes turn out to be bad.
Time and time again it has proved that it knows how to make a good
RPG. Is FFIX an example of this? Try it, and find out. The worth of
the game is truly amazing living up to the true name of Final
Fantasy! |
