How do you prove we exist..?
Maybe we don't exist.
>can discuss own existence
>"but what if we don't exist"
Nah mate, that's what we call "stupid"
Sounds more like edgy nihilism. FF9 had some shit writing.

>being this dumb
It's philosophical, not literal, retards.
Vivi is asking how you prove to others that you exist in a meaningful sense.
He then posits that perhaps no one ever leaves anything of note in their lives, and this is compounded by the fact that everyone is so busy trying to make their own mark that it's impossible for them to see others doing the same, so they effectively never experience the existence of others.
>>383949735
Is it really so weird for a character who learns he's an artificial being with a very short lifespan to have an existential crisis?
I'm here, it's now, I'm shit posting
So yes I exist.

FF9 was the weakest of the PS1 FF games.
All 3 were excellent though.

FF9 was the pinnacle of jrpgs and will never ever be matched again
>>383951329
For people familiar with Jordan Peterson and Joseph Campbell it's easy to understand why FFIX is so good when you explore it through the lens of the hero myth
Vivi is literally the embodiment of Peterson's doctrine of how to approach life
>>383952110
9 is objectively the best FF game, but to say it is the absolute best JRPG is a bit of a strong statement. there's plenty of contenders like skies of arcadia, grandia 2, dark cloud, and chrono trigger.

I remember the strategy guide said it was gender less.
I'm fine with any FF opinion that doesn't put FFVI at the top. Played that game for the first time recently, what an overhyped piece of shit.

>Trance mechanics are horrible
>Only ONE, seriously ONE team attack between Vivi and Steiner
>>383951493
no defined gender is ever given but i call Quina 'he' because it takes marginally less time to type than 'she'. Although i guess i wasted all those precious nanoseconds elaborating this point.
>>383952598
Quina is arguably the angriest party member behind Steiner, just in a lighthearted way. There are instances where he's denied food and sarcastically chides whoever chased him out, and he has general outbursts about hunger and boredom here and there. And his personality is about constantly doing and taking what he can get away with as a gigantic clumsy clown monster.
>>383952726
necron is literally the fear of death. everyone was on the verge of dying and that fight was a subconscious one. necron isn't actually real, just symbolic of the game's theme.
>>383952971

Your mirror shitpost doesn't work with VII
>undefined jobs and poor customization
>no real difference characters
You're arguing that against the Materia system, where you can make anyone anything. This loses already. And your idea of "poor customization" already contradicts "no real difference"
>Forgettable Characters
There's a reason why Cloud was chosen over Zidane for Smash Brothers.
>Incredibly Short game
20 hours is longer than 12.
>Very Linear
True
>Horrible plot
The irony with your rebuttal that IX's storyline basically copies VII and VI. And it's without the environmentalism subplot as well as doing the secret weapon idea in a much poorer way with Space Alien Monkeys.
>Force Romance
You can choose between Aeris, Tifa, or Yuffie, instead of just Garnet
>Lots of backtracking
There's very little backtracking in VII
>Mediocre Music
One Winged Angel is actually memorable over Melodies of Life. Furthermore, the overworld theme of VII isn't just another Melodies of Life remix.
>Limit Break mechanics
Wrong, you can actually save Limit Breaks
>No team attack
True, but this isn't a feature in VII. Where IX actually has a story segment trying to promote this idea.
Why are IX babies always so easy to blow the fuck out?
>>383953894
if you're in a new area, vivi's dropping his fucking spaghetti
>>383954493
not the guy you initially spoke to but, FFIX is better than VII in most aspects besides the battle system imo, the rest is kinda debatable but FFIX has clearly better characters, atmosphere, story, ost and world by a long shot.
i've always wanted to stream ffix for /v/ for a night but i have no idea where to start in terms of software/hardware. all i have is an old laptop. i love this game to death, i'd even do a steal everything run.

this
I'm so fucking infuriated that only the relevant characters get HD treatment, the rest is just "lolol let's just bring these from ps1 to PC". A fucking shame
>>383954893
>FFIX has clearly better characters
When one of the biggest criticisms of IX is Freya's story being completely dropped, Amarant and Quina are non-existent, it does NOT have better characters.
>atmosphere,
Another falsehood. Midgar itself being a hub of technological advancement fucking up the rest of the world is much better than a hodgepodge of random fantasy elements.
>story
Already addressed, the story of VII in it's handling of the existential crisis and twist was a much better twist than the existential crisis and twist in IX. Cloud being a regular loser was more shocking and completely less of a asspull than Zidane's space bioweapon from Garland and space.
>OST
Already addressed
>World
Having Wutai, underwater world, overworld, and even having the weapons flying around is much more wellcrafted than IX's hidden library. IX's world is pretty empty as well.
>>383955441
Eh most of this talk is purely subjective, but I still think IX is better, but you have your opinion and I have mine, thats cool, I think Vivi, Steiner, Zidane and Dagger are great characters who are far better than VII characters and Freya, Amarant and Quina, specially Quina are simple characters who serve the purpose of helping out with the games themes and conveying a message, each character represents somethin/some trait or idea and they get explored through the character, due to budget problems and such Freya and Amarant didnt get much development, Quina however was really well done if you take into consideration what she represents.
>>383953309
Literally made me cry. These games came from such a less hectic time of life. I can literally feel the small bits of happiness these tunes bring me from the memories of playing this after school. Worst is I haven't been happy for a long fucking time now.
>>383955867
It's sad when a secret character like Vincent adds to the entire lore moreso than party character like Quina.
