Hello!

Hello everyone~ I used to blog on LJ years and years ago. I miss it a lot, so I decided to become active on Dreamwidth. I figured I would introduce myself here to meet fellow FF fans!

How you got into the FF games
At the age of 12, I went to a family friend's house with my Mom for some sort of party. I noticed the host's teenage son sneaking away to the basement, so I followed him to get away from all of the adults. I saw that he was playing some sort of video game. When he caught me watching him, he started a new save file so that I could see it from the beginning. This game turned out to be FFVIII. I was enthralled by the opening sequence, and needless to say, I've been a fan ever since!

*waves!* Welcome! You have good taste in games - those are some of my favorites, too! FFX was my first Final Fantasy game, and I still think it's fantastic. And I love FFXIV times a million.

My main DC is Crystal, where I have four characters and actively play three of them:

* Coeurl: Althea Valara
* Goblin: Windy Storm
* Mateus: Taylan Eyal
* Brynhildr: Eirian Ari (poor languishing catboy)

But I also have dupes of Althea on Dynamis/Maduin and Chaos/Cerberus! I'm poking at the Dynamis alt because the server is shiny and new, but haven't played the Chaos alt in a while (it was made to attend a wedding).

I've played the entire mainline numbered series of FF games (yes, including FFXI) and loved them all, to various degrees. Some of my favorites besides FFXIV are FFII and FFV, the latter because the job system makes it very replayable. But really, all the games are good and worth a try if you haven't played them.

Hullo hullo! I'm Jami, nice to meet you namesake. ;D LJ/DW style sites are the best for a bit more in-depth contact than the twitters and instagrams of the present day, for sure. Nothing quite like them in the big-name social media sites these days!
My faves are FF4 and FF9 along with a bunch of others like Type-0. Depends on the day really, and whether you're asking which world/story I like the most or whether it's about the gameplay. Those two can be really different lists! I love the whole series really, although currently I'm mostly on break from the online and phone games. Been playing (or semi-playing) FF14 since 1.0 alpha days, and I'm concentrated with all my various charas on Balmung.

FFIX is also one of my favs and the only one I finished several times :D Welcome!! And yay to Vivi <3 <3

Hey there, I'm Mana and I will take care of Lahabrea and Emet-Selch in the favorites for you (*¯︶¯*) JK JK I love every ancient. I write enough about FFXIV, it'd be nice to have some other friends who understand the game and can appreciate my inane ramblings. Especially about certain ancients. Love your character name. Garnet is a cutie. One of my besties has a Garnet character in-game too!

I don't play much on Halicarnassus right now, but I have several other Dynamis alts (like my Ysayle alt who is currently at level 84 MSQ) so maybe we'd have the chance to run into one another ٩(｡•́‿•̀｡)۶ My main is over on Adamantoise, but I got my dream name on Dynamis (Rosa Farrell) so I've been obsessed with playing there lately!

The opening for FFVIII is so iconic that I can still see it quite vividly in my mind. One of my favorite games to start with (though I will always have a soft spot in my heart for FFVI's opening over it) (✯◡✯)

My style of blogging is more like old LiveJournal on account of having done it for like the last twenty years so if that appeals to you, let's hang out! I fill out surveys, I do a weekly gaming log, and write somewhat every day though I've a bit of an odd week.

Hello! I played 7 and 8 at my friend's house on their Sega and that was my intro to the series. :D

My favs are 12, 15, and 7 (though the story of 10 has a place in my heart forever as well). I also enjoyed the 13 series quite a lot, though there aren't many of us that did. xD Looking forward to 16 though I don't yet have a ps5.

There are definitely a few 14 players here so hopefully you enjoy your stay!
