Final fantasy 9 is better than Final Fantasy 7

And I would say the consistent themes of who we are as people and what we are to ourselves is just as good if not better as well as the backdrop of the story being literally how war will literally consume the entire planet.

Are You describing part of the message of MGS?

JK but I havenā€™t played FF9 in a long while at when I first read this I thought I was losing it on my 12 hour shift here

But uh seriously that appears to be an opinion argument which is too difficult or time consuming to peal out why you think that way or to explain why I feel the later is more important to me in FF9s case I would legitimately say other stories have used that message better than FF9 did considering I remember MGS but I donā€™t remember FF9 that well

TBF maybe. I am an amateur at objective analysis though the main reason was to point out that FF9 was similar to 7 in the way you pointed out.

Being memorable doesnā€™t mean being good. TLOU2 is memorable.

Not to mention itā€™s easier to remember things that we either hate or like regardless of quality. So if something is meh subjectively but is amazing objectivitly your still not likely to remember it.

Right and I know that itā€™s just after that comparison the next step is to try and lay out reasons why youā€™d or Iā€™d consider yours vs mine is better and then try to come to an conclusion which I donā€™t feel like doing bullet point essays or review discussing such things at least not now

As Iā€™ve been doing dungeons and dragons DM campaign writing for like 9 years now I mostly have a eye for narrative I get my feedback from my players once a year or so and they are mostly happy with my work when Iā€™m trying though they can tell when I lack the uhā€¦ creative energy though Iā€™ll always be miffed when I was teaching someone else to DM and when he asked for honest feedback and I gave it to him he later decided he didnā€™t want to do that anymore

However I personally value art by itā€™s Impact as Iā€™m very much a nurture rather than nature person if a work art impacts a person which therefore leaves a memory it is better than if itā€™s competition does not now of course itā€™s hard to equate that between people as then subjective taste occurs which then weā€™d have to go by does the art have a relevant message which both do so does it Impact a community or a society which would then be unfair as well Iā€™m sure u can agree that FF7 did have a larger impact on the gaming space than FF9 but thatā€™s a rather u fair comparison considering the circumstances

VIII is better than both of them.

FIGHT ME.
