Played the original but on the PC lmao

Well, it has been a mixed decision to not put FFVII on the poll for favorite final fantasy games.

I gave my reasoning as it was more recent, by which I meant, between the nostalgia for the original and the new fans brought in by remasters remasters it would probably dominate, and while other games have remasters, VIIs are significantly different to be a new category for me.

As I only had 12 spots on the poll, I decided not to include it on that particular poll,and include it in a future one if the poll was popular. And I'm amazed at how popular it was, and how many nice things people have said in the reblogs.

I was going to do this later, but the time seems right for now. So, throwing in everything but the movies-

*I know that the later games come out on more systems, I'm just keeping it simple and sticking to play stations and mobiles.

*Oh yah, I now remember why I was going to wait. I meant to include Rebirth. Oh well, that can go in a future poll about spinoffs/ sequels and the like

Feel free to give reasons or fond memories in the notes or reblogs.

If you haven't voted already, here's the poll for favorite final fantasy game. (Its the first. Other games like tactics will show up in future polls)

#the PC release was like a year after the playstation one I think?#i had a 3Dfx Voodoo card making the 3D 2x the resolution of the PS1 #the menus and dialogs were also similarly higher resolution #the prerendered backgrounds were not though #and the FMV was both low res *and* compressed to hell #total potato quality and then some #music was really good despite being just midi #the game had full support for the soundblaster AWE wavetable synth #so the music still sounded pretty much identical to the PS version #it also came with some additional monochrome chocobo game??#looked like an old pre-smartphone mobile game as I recall #i dunno it was a thing #anyway thats how I played FF7 #which subsequently became and remains my favourite single player FF #haven't played the remake yet #PC port supposedly has some bad performance issues I've been told?#anyway I figure I'll get to it eventually
