Topic: FFIV: The After Years comes with "9 episodic tales"!

Yeah, it really is like the original version of FFIV, plus the moon phase thing (how the heck does their moon go through a full set of phases in less than a week, anyway?). I'll probably continue to concentrate on FFIV DS for now, then play through all of After Years once all the DLC is available.

I'm planning on getting this...having beaten the original (again) on VC, is it worth getting them all at once or just starting out getting the first main game then adding DLC as I complete them one by one?

I know it's expensive an all...but if it has alot of content in each episode I don't mind spacing it out as long as I am willing to play this game.

I just think of it as the characters being really slow. And when they stay in a tent, they stay in there until the next phase.

@Relevant Latty: Get them one at a time and make sure you utilize more than one save slot for each chapter. Don't save over your "completed" saves.

@vonseux: What do you mean by endured all chapters? I beat the game if thats what you're asking.

I'm getting really sick of all these "Episode" games. When you put "Episode 1" in front of a game, it sounds like you are buying a portion of a game. Each game needs to have an ending, and each needs to have it's own unique name. If you want to continue on the same storyline that's fine, but make each game a game of its own.

@luke
A title is just a title.

Alright, thanks for that. XD

I wonder if Gilgamesh makes a cameo in this game?

I loved this game. Hopefully they do more stuff like this! That being said, i think it's really for very hardcore fans of the original game only, which I guess is obvious ^_ Well worth the price IMO

They should release FF4: The After Years on the DS for $30. It'll be cheaper (a bit), and you could take it on the go, amd get them all in one shot without having all those things take up space.

Just like the fourth Star Wars movie - you only felt like you were getting a portion of the movie, eh?
