Final Fallacy Special Edition Review
Final Fallacy, play it once you are done playing everything else...
Review by antifarea
This is yet another parody game that still fails to make something good besides it's somewhat funny storyline...
However this game does it in it's own strange terms. Get to know Final Fallacy, although it's title can make you
expect it's going to be a final fantasy parody, it has nothing to do with it... and to make it more clear, it doesn't really have anything to do with it's story in the first place. Read below...
The story starts with 3 heroes and a wise old man that try to destroy the infamous archvillian... while those heroes fail, later on Guy's party (the main character) comes and defeat him, considering the archvillian was still weakened from the last fight with the serious heroes... after that, Guy becomes a king, and while everything is at peace for years, he still can't convince himself that there are monsters out there laying around causing trouble somewhere. So, even though
he is older now, he still sets on a quest to make sure that all the monster threats are erradicated. In this quest you will get to notice how everyone thinks Guy is an idiot, and really he's an idiot actually... he just don't know it yet.
The dialogues and how the story goes, is actually sort of funny... however there are NPCs that you talk to, which even though they have something funny to say, that's all they say... and in cases where NPCs have quite the dialogue to show, pressing the talk button by mistake all the time, can result a little annoying.
Graphics... really, I don't even know how to even explain this part... you will go to a city and it uses fancy chipsets and nice mapping, however once you enter a house or just go inside a castle, it totally kills the visuals. The chipsets used here deffinitely don't match,
as well the way it's creator made it happen... it gives the feeling as if the author of this game just took it serious in certain maps, and then he just joked around with the rest of the maps, maybe because he felt tired of working on this game... but that's just how I see
it. So expect some twisted variety when playing this game.
Gameplay... you only really get to travel most of the time, and talk to people. Action rarely happens, in terms as getting into fights... and this I say considering the fact that some of the fights (the hydra for example) are cutscene based. You can buy all the equipment that you want, since you start with around 100,000 money... yet I don't know what is the neccesity of buying equipment around since whatever real fight you get into, ends in 30 seconds with either plain normal attacks, or just some of the devastating magics/skills from your friends. The battles are straight RPGMAKER 2000 RTP based, with nothing special on them. If you are into this style, then it really won't be much of a pain to deal with these set-ups.
Music, simple putting it... expect 2-3 original tunes, and the rest RTP, same goes for the sounds used in this game... which I think really lacks considering the story of this game.
In overall, if you just want to laugh a little, and you really don't care about the rest of the functions that makes a game, then this is the game for you. This does leaves me with a dilemma... why wasn't this game be a flash movie instead? it would have actually be a good creation... play this if you really have nothing, and I mean nothing else in the world to play... even if you are just interested into trying parody games.
