Welcome to the World of Final Fantasy (Maxima)!
So, what’s all this then?
This is a very loose Let’s Play of World of Final Fantasy: Maxima.
Loose?
The participants are barely paying attention. I’m sure we’ll all care more when the plot ramps up into full wackiness… but no promises!
So what’s the point?
I’ll be frank: this is a “hang-out” Let’s Play. We’re playing through WoFF:M, but this is more or less an excuse for like-minded individuals to have fun and maybe make fun of Smoll Squall.
How did this happen?
There was a vote to determine my next Let’s Play. The winners seemed to be Wild Arms 3 and World of Final Fantasy. Since BEAT, a friendly skeleman, had never heard of World of Final Fantasy, we decided to make that a “joint” video Let’s Play, while Wild Arms 3 will be a more traditional, in-depth Let’s Play.
So this is just pure goofiness?
No, I do plan on carefully outlining everything that happens in the update-based liner notes. Just don’t expect biting insight in the minute-to-minute of the videos. Odds are really low anyone is even paying attention to what the zero-gravity cat thing is saying.
Is this your first time playing the game?
I played World of Final Fantasy. Part of the reason I even put WoFF up as a poll choice was because I enjoyed the experience, purchased the Maxima upgrade/expansion… and then never played the game again. So I am familiar with World of Final Fantasy, have mostly forgotten what happened in the intervening five years since release, and am now playing World of Final Fantasy + Maxima for the first time. I reserve the right to be surprised by the stupidest things.
Anything more about World of Final Fantasy?
It was originally a Vita game, but found a new home on the Playstation 4. It was supposed to be an “all-ages friendly” title meant to draw in audiences old and new for Final Fantasy’s 30th anniversary. It… seemed to be little more than a blip on the radar. Hey! It was released opposite a real Final Fantasy game (Final Fantasy 15) and a real Pokémon game (Sun & Moon). It was a crowded year!
How is Pokémon relevant?
The Final Fantasy bestiary can be adopted as little helper critters across World of Final Fantasy. It is, arguably, World of Final Fantasy’s defining feature. But I’m getting ahead of myself…
When does this Let’s Play update?
As it currently stands, we are live streaming this game every Tuesday night starting between 8-9 PM. It can be found on my twitch channel at twitch.tv/gogglebobblog . After that, a recording of the covered chapters with “liner notes” will appear in this thread within the week. … Hopefully. Video editing takes time!
Anything else?
Special thanks to my partners in crime on this project, BEAT and fanboymaster for coming along on this journey through the World of Final Fantasy.
