I just realized that Kuja says "I'm not gonna die alone, you're all coming with me" but then the last act of his life is saving everyone after they beat Necron.
When I played this back on the original PlayStation, I summoned ARK against Trance Kuja, and the Summon and Boss music Synched so Perfectly. It's a Core Memory.
I remember getting to this guy no prob then getting absolutely destroyed. quit the game for a year then finally came back and ground out like 20 levels and beat him
Im a fan of dragoons in general. Which resulted in me when playing games, im looking up "does this game have spears?" "can i roleplay as a Jump based dragoon?"
good god i still remember being absolutely stunned seeing all those models fully rendered. Its one thing playing on an emulator (and even then you cant fully get rid off of all that jank and wank), but i played this in 2008-2009 on a CRT TV, when i was 6. anyone who lpayed any ps1 games on this setup knows how unreadable a lot of shit was. For instance, i never knew Amarant actually has a face, i just thought his head is a scarlet bush attached to a body. I also thought that Freya was a guy and her helmet is a party hat. And thats just a few of the most notable examples,i could tell you how my 6 year old saw every single npc and enemy as something entirely else. So seeing them in full hd was just fucking insane.
Some "people" invent things to call game breakers to get their bhole wettty 'n ready to recieve the hordes of other ninernet lazys with no logic talent
Everyone loves to bring up Kuja and, to a lesser extent, Necron here, but I feel that I have to give some love to this version of Deathguise. It gives off so much menace with this appearance.
Yep, quote is from Star Wars Episode 1 , The Phantom Menace ,and Master Yoda uses to describe how a Jedi could turn into the Darkside of the force. Basically fearing death, and having no control of your emotions, bringing hate, anger, anxiety for power and taking control of everything that sorrounds you it is. People fear what they cannot control or stop.
recently completed this game. It's definitely better than OG FF7 in story pacing and direction. OG FF7's story pacing outside of midgar is a little awkward flowing but still good overall. FF9 picks up after Garnet changes her name. The trio bosses at the end wasn't as difficult as I thought it would be. Kuja kept spamming flare star; however the animation of it gave my party members enough time to recover their health via auto regen. As for Necron, he has an attack that brings your character to a 1 HP, ending up killing three of my party members. Defeated him with just Zidane's attacks. It was totally an "oh my god it's about to be game over" type of fight. Lol great game.
Bruh this game is a masterpiece.. When I explored alexandria for the first time it was like I was walking in another world.. When I killed the final boss i was crying cose I didn t want that journey to end..music, atmosphere, mood, everything is special, it made me an happy kid
As I’m watching this, immediate instinct was well this first party is weird af, and I definitely know there’s a 2nd fight with the other 4 party members coming next. Then I saw auto haste cast on everyone and was like oh nvm he’s totally fine no matter what party combos he uses lol.
@@00Kuja00 the fact that the final boss comes from absolutely nowhere. Most people would assume that kuja would be the final boss but right after you beat him the game just tosses this random dude who was never mentioned once before this fight.
@@tahamohammad8842 I disagree. To sum it up. Necron (The Darkness of Eternity), is the fear of death/despair incarnate. So it's the whole theme of the game. So he/it is very relevant since you can only beat him storywise when Kuja has a change of heart.
@@00Kuja00 thematically it makes sense but in literal story terms it doesn’t. I figured with him being named necron that would be some sort of god of death so I figured that he was placed there for thematic reasons. Doesn’t change the fact that in terms of story he just shows up. As an entity he was never brought a single time. I don’t think a single NPC even mentioned his existence, kind of like zeromous from FF4 who also shows up after beating the supposed real villan.
@@tahamohammad8842 No they talk about him, but in the sense of how they deal with the fear of death. Necron is always there. You have to read between the lines.
@Keren Crispe kuja and sephiroph also had reason for becoming the way they are (sephiroph because he found out about the reason for his existence and kuja because he was pretty much made just to destroy Gaia) but kefka does it because he’s bored
I prefer Kuja as a character cuz Kefka lacks depth. Basically, Sephiroth has story but lacks personality, Kefka has personality but lacks story, and Kuja has both story and personality.
Watched a couple of FFIX videos tonight, and I'm wondering, am i the only maxing out Thievery with Zidane for kax damage at 8 MP a pop? Seems like everyone just uses Attack or Steal with him..,
It's the crystal motif. You can hear it in pretty much any FF that has the concept of world crystal. An example of not having it could be FF X (no crystal, no motif in To Zanarkand). ruclips.net/video/qYYTutAqVlk/видео.html
Final fantasy loves its Star Wars reference. Golbez is a lot like darth Vader and FF12 is practically just a parallel universe Star Wars in terms of story
ok look at 12:49 Why do the sounds in the remaster/newer versions are all messed up? I always wondered this because I know as a kid thats not what i heard, and even in 4k uprezzed videos of summon compilations, the sounds are all wonky and some of them suck. I found this sound of Shock from the original game footage and it sounds like it should: @54:34 ruclips.net/video/TArUYpiQgSg/видео.html
If you ask me, Necron shouldn’t have been a separate god entity from Kuja. It should’ve been an embodiment of Kuja’s strong emotions, finally able to take form after Kuja wiped out the main heroes with “Ultima”. No change in appearance or boss fight… but with more fragmented dialogue when it first appears, and a name indicating the only coherent point of that dialogue: “Nihilism”.
Who even was Necron? Kuja was always the final boss and battle, and then we get gifted with a massive angel. whatever..... i guess.... easy fight though. survive grand cross and win.
I like to think Necron is Kefka reborn after his death in FF6. They share the same philosophies after all. When Kefka died he went from being god of magic to the god of death.
Hey there! I'm doing a cover of both Kuja's boss theme and Necron's boss theme, would you mind if I used your footage? I'll link to this video and your channel in the description, obviously! I'll send you the video in the replies once it's out! Cheers!
Wait a minute in the remastered version you get to choose your team for the final fight against death? Lame, in the OG PSX version, you had to fight death with the party members that sat out the fight with Kuja, way more compelling IMO, it makes sure you actually raised every character and didn’t just run one party of 4 all the time.
necron, the most idiotic boss battle to come out of an ff title, never heard of mans through out entire game, Kuja was the true final boss, change my mind..
Game: "Congrats on beating Deathguise, we can't give EXP or AP at this point since you're at the Endgame but we CAN give you Gil!" Me: "For what?!?!" Game: "....throwing it.......?" Me: "I don't have Amarant in my party!!" Game: "................." "..............Good luck!!" Me: 💢💢💢

*Suffers from Grand Cross*
*Uses Dragon's Crest*
*Kills Necron*
Steiner: "Good, we're done here...I'm gonna nap now." *dies due to Doom*
As a kid, my mind was blown when I saw Grand Cross being used by Necron.
Supernova is far superior.
Hes the whackest last boss in the series.
@Null Dork Wasn’t the boss’ name is Neo Exadeath? The one who became a tree
@@maybeshesaleo8869 the tree was named Exdeath his final form was Neo Exdeath so yea
Yeah and he keep spamming that
You can totally see that Zidane and Kuja are brothers, they both have a flare for the dramatic
Just like in ffiv
I'm not denying they aren't but just because 2 people are dramatic doesn't mean they are related you must really have a simple mind.

Yes! 🙌🏼
Right my necron took its bloody time
When I played this back on the original PlayStation, I summoned ARK against Trance Kuja, and the Summon and Boss music Synched so Perfectly. It's a Core Memory.
This is the most beautiful rendition of the Holy magic IMO.
I remember getting to this guy no prob then getting absolutely destroyed. quit the game for a year then finally came back and ground out like 20 levels and beat him
As a kid at 10 this was a battle and amazing game right up there with oot for me classics and nostalgia
I like how he just spams Attack, Shock, Dragon’s Crest and Holy again and again and again and again
If it ain´t broke, don´t fix it.
It's better than spaming ultima in ff vi
Frog drop and Thievery though...
Freya is fucking strong. I remembered why i'm a fan of her
Freya like Kain in FFIX, strong and nice
Im a fan of dragoons in general.
Which resulted in me when playing games, im looking up "does this game have spears?" "can i roleplay as a Jump based dragoon?"
Thank you Hi-Def.
I was today years -old in realizing Necron actually has his arms folded! I thought the long purple limbs were his arms! 🤣
I just realized that they had boobs under their folded arms

Just play the game for the very first time and you'll get 9999 hp and 9999 damage without even having to try or think. This FF was set to mega easy
@@Beenbarian Damn, that means I sucked at playing it.
How to get the auto regen, sry im not complete this game exactly
How in the world did you get auto haste!? I couldn't evwn get curaga on Garnet until the final dungeon!!
Beatrix still my favorite. She should have been a permanent playable character.
agreed
Blank looks like he belong with the original FF9 party as well. Shame that he wasn't.
If you own FF9 on steam I'd strongly suggest trying out the mod "Alternate Fantasy" then.
We all wanted blank or beatrix instead of amarant the whole time lol

Wait there’s a Star Wars quote in final fantasy 9
whats the quote??

‘fear leads to anger, anger leads to hate, hate leads to suffering’

I remembered desteoying the final bosses and then being put in your place by ozma in the 1st match, got annihilated.
Ff9 needs a remake it’s just so dam good
Imagine all the spells in HD 👌
ラスボスは1ターンにつき4回も行動するので注意が必要なので。
Meanwhile, I'm still on disk 1 in Alexandria trying to complete 1000 jump ropes on Vivi for the key item and 100% completion.
Vivi didn't die, YOU MONSTER, he lives through all of us, don't talk like you know him!!!
I still say this should of been one on one Zidane vs Kuja trance vs trance will vs will.
You make it seem like the characters are dancing along with the music.
I love the music when you tell with Neckron will you tired before the matches begins
I used garnet Zidane eiko and vivi yet this boss when he used crossed worlds it freaked me out not in a bad way but that attack is dangerous
This game teaches a major lesson
Best Flashy Final Boss move: Supernova
Least Elaborate Final boss move: Hell Judgement
Most ANNOYING AS EFF Boss move: Grand Cross
That Shock animation though
9:19 - 9:27 Did this guy beat Darkseid to getting the Anti-Life Equation?
While Necrom was an "odd" final boss, his theme is a banger 100/100
If he can't beat four regular ass people how the fuck was about to carry out his plan??
Kuja should've realized he had no chance when he got whooped the first time in his disguised form. Lol
I honestly cannot wait for the remastered version of this
Pretty sure square will fuck it up
it's just me crying at the end like 15 years ago?

Haha, they are lucky the villain isn’t evil, If Kefka found the essence of life in a crystal, he would have destroyed it immediately.

Best of the Final Fantasy series.
Quina throwing Remedies on everyone in the party was essential to survive Necron
Blame the translators for stealing that line "fear leads to anger..., etc" from Star Wars. It wasn't like that in the Japanese version.
We were happy and we didnt know it...
Iam level 99 beaten omza but finished the game Iam strong enough to beat Kuja and Necron?
I mean if u got the weapons and armor and accessories, for that high lvl, I'd say so
Just make sure you have plenty of potions and phoenix downs, also make sure you have a healer in your party
dagger good since she can summon ark
is this game hard i wanna play it
@@michaeljames6737 it can be, it really depends on how u play it

Did anybody else start this fight with 1hp on all characters? Maybe I don't remember it right
I did.
