Hiya! My name's Meadz and I'm new to the comm. FFVII was my first game back when it came out (yes I'm old) and FFXV is my primary fandom these days. On that note I hope y'all don't mind me promoting some fandom events in the FFXV coming up?

Yes, Final Fantasy Tactics is coming to multiple platforms on September 30th!

Caves of Narshe news article: https://www.cavesofnarshe.com/news/article/its-finally-here-the-ivalice-chronicles/

Square Enix official blog: https://www.square-enix-games.com/en_US/news/final-fantasy-tactics-the-ivalice-chronicles

There will be a collector's box full of goodies.

I am very hyped, because I have long wanted to play Tactics but lacked a method to do so (I do own the iOS version, but my phone is small and I can't see it.) I'm just trying to decide which platform to get it on. I could do PS5, original Switch, or Steam. DECISIONS!

Alphinaud meets Alphinaud!

I've posted about this before, last year but it bears posting about again now since there's a whole PC Gamer article about it: Colin Ryan, the English voice actor for Alphinaud in FFXIV, has been streaming the game over the past year (with a few months break to be on stage). Last weekend, he finished patch 2.55 of A Realm Reborn and started Heavensward, which means he heard himself in game for the first time. His reaction? ADORABLE:



I've caught most of his streams live, and I gotta say they are well worth watching. As a voice actor, he knows SOME of the story but not all of it, and it's a delight to see him put two and two together and something suddenly makes sense to him.

You can watch him on Twitch at https://twitch.tv/iamalphinaud

three-year Square Enix "reboot" thoughts?

So Square Enix has announced plans to sorta "reboot" the company over the next three years, here's an article:

https://gameranx.com/updates/id/538134/article/square-enix-outlines-plans-for-a-three-year-reboot-and-it-includes-cancelling-games/

There are several key takeaways:

  • The plan is to focus on "Quality, not quantity".

  • Because of this, some games in the works have been cancelled. I haven't heard of any Final Fantasy-related titles being cancelled, but the Kingdom Hearts Missing Link mobile game has been abandoned.

  • It sounds like they are going to explore multiplatform releases.


I'm cautiously optimistic about these plans. I'd much rather have an excellent game than have a release for a release's sake. I also think multiplatform might be a good direction to go in. I mean, I'm very happy with my PS5 because it has more games I'm interested in than an Xbox X|S does, but (a) I did largely buy the PS5 so I could play FFXVI at launch with all my friends, (b) more fans of Final Fantasy could only be a GOOD thing IMO, so bring on the multi-platform!

Hello, hello, first time posting here!

I just read an amazing article (from about a month ago, but I didn't see it shared here) about the effort to reverse-engineer and preserve the Japan-exclusive 2004~2007 mobile game, Before Crisis: Final Fantasy VII (one of the earliest spin-offs Squenix launched as part of its Compilation of FFVII project, focused on the Turks.) It seems like the project is currently on pause, though it sounds like they got a significant chunk of the game running already!

What the title says. *points upward* And here's the official trailer. *points downward*



Official News post on FFXIV's Lodestone Site

Here's the official site but it appears to be slammed right now.

My opinion? Cautiously excited. I have played mobile games in the past and loved them, including Star Ocean: Anamnesis which was a multi-player mobile gacha. I really enjoyed that one, for the most part, and had some really good times excelling at battles in it. But then, I also had some really horrible times trying the hardest challenges and throwing my hands in the air when people sent stickers telling me off for how I was playing.

That was a few years ago, and I'm sure mobile games have changed now so it will be interesting to see just what they do with this one.

EDIT: I just checked the con's guest list, and GUESS WHAT? Javier Prusky, the voice of Bakool Ja Ja, will be attending as well! 😍 TWO GREAT VOICE ACTORS, ONE CONVENTION.

Original post:

Sena Bryer, who plays Wuk Lamat in Final Fantasy XIV's Dawntrail expansion, will be coming to Chicago for Con Alt Delete, an anime convention happening December 20th to 22nd this year!

A BlueSky post from Sena Bryer, Wuk Lamat's VA, stating that she will be at a Chicago anime convention.

I haven't been to a convention in ages. I may try to catch this one, because I love what Sena did with Wuk Lamat. Thought I'd pass the word on, in case anyone else is interested!
