Wow, that is heartbreaking stuff. I'm so sorry you guys had to go through that. I stumbled across this video as I'm looking for facts from this game (and many others). I got the answers I needed so I hope you can take pride in the fact your son is still teaching people things, no matter how little it is, even after his passing. Keep your chin up. Take care.
This is my all time favorite game, I play through it once per year, I have 3 of the 4 save slots with my characters maxed out at level 99. I've always felt this game doesn't get the respect and love it deserves, everybody seems to like III better. I prefer this one and I love the soundtrack. Watching this give me chills lol. What a great era for video games and RPG's in particular this was. I sure am glad I got to grow up during that golden age.
Working through it! It’s great to have this one and 6 on snes but I gotta say I think I still like 6 best. This guide really helps though because the game doesn’t really spell everything out in my opinion
The fastest way to boost characters in this game, when Cecil becomes a paladin on the mountain, kill all other players. Cecil can own every mob on the mountain with ease. Ive left it at lvl 50. And each character you run back into along the way are boosted accordingly to your level.
This game right here was actually my introduction to RPG in life. I purchased it at a "Funcoland" never actually knowing what it really was and I never looked back since. RPG's are my favorite genre of gaming.
I still have my original copy I got when this came out. One of my favorites! I prefer the clunky translations in this one to the newer remakes. Nice job!
Some of the lines, I feel, are delivered better in this game. Just a few examples I can think of off the top of my head, "The crystal was shedding its light silently," and "The crystal isn't just jewelry!" and "and grieve that no other way remains" all sound a LOT more meaningful and memorable than every other version since.
Im so glad you did this Saikyo. :) This is my favorite game in the series and I adore Cecil as the main character. I will forever remember that Spoony Bard Edward too. :P Great work Saikyo! :3
Years later you showed me a secret in a secret, the Change Rod. I had discovered Rydia's Tiara as a kid, never knew the second path existed. Thanks buddy, hope you found peace.
I was a poor kid, so when SNES came out, it was either goto KMart to play the display super Mario world standing up, or my one friend who had one real early on, but he was a dick and wouldn't let anyone touch it. He had Final Fantasy 2 and I'd goto his house just watch him play this. Lol, just watching was great for me. I remember being so amazed by the soundtrack
Emulators are a last resort. But since the price of an original cartridge is so high, buy a reproduction cart' for $20 or less and play it on a real SNES with the original controller, or on a clone system like the Retron Duo.
Yeah, a long time ago. Way back when I didn't quite have a good plan on how to do RPGs...I should have cut it down to three videos instead of 2 long ones. Also, I think I go through the dialogue a little too quickly...But I suppose if you're a speed reader, it shouldn't be a problem.. :P
@@Bloodreign1 What? I thought the ff4 easy type was based on this version. Seeing as it added an alternate zeromus. This version has the original zeromus. I'll have to double check
@mma forever, I remember being a 10 year old with a key trying to find the underground... Took me a week I think, eventually just threw the key into the well, and viola... Next area unlocked
As much as I'd like to do PS1 games, I can't. Plus, with my life ending in about 6 months due to my terminal cancer, I'm just doing games I wish to do more or less....
+Melodeath Ted I am sad to tell you that Jeremy died Feb 2015. See the Dad's Remembrance below. I still miss him every day. Thank you for your prayers. Jeremy's Dad
SaikyoMog I just heard the news. I'm technically a new fan to the channel. It's a very strange feeling to find this channel this way. My best hopes and wishes go out to you and the rest of your family. Your son clearly left this world doing what he loved. I only found and played this game a few weeks ago, and it has left such a strong impact on me, so I'm glad that his last days were filled with enjoying a classic like this. As cheesy as it may sound, this game has helped me realize that life truly is worth living, and your sons passing will help me with that as well. I thank you, and I thank him. Peace be with you always.
I bought this game on oct/14 for ps2, but doesn't work :( I sure missed playing this. And i really wish it would have work for playstation 2. Anyways if i ever get this game. I will still like the old version to this and not the newer one.
+delaney k overdue post here, you can get an emulating program and download the ROM to play the game; though it doesnt quite feel the same; its an alternative
Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment. Jeremy would have been glad to hear that another fan of the older games had watched. I bet he would have known a way to help you. Jeremy’s dad
When fighting the General and soldiers when they come to get Rydia in Kapio or in the battle to protect Fabul kill the General/Sargent in back row first you get extra exp and Gil that way kill one of the soldiers so it dont run, I did this one time since the guy in back never attacks just orders.... The battle with Kain after that you can "kill kain" with cheating (level 99) no exp and you still lose. LOL
Japan's got two versions, one is the one later ported to the PS1, DS, and PSP, and of course, the Easy Type, the one ported here to the US on the SNES.

Me too, I'm glad I got to grow up in the era I grew up in.
I felt so accomplished when I finally beat this game. Took me forever, but it remains my favorite FF game.
mine too
Working through it! It’s great to have this one and 6 on snes but I gotta say I think I still like 6 best. This guide really helps though because the game doesn’t really spell everything out in my opinion
I was 15 and wrote the date on my calendar. I had been playing it for years so completing it felt special 🤣.. March of 2003 iirc
Greatest game of ALL TIMES
Member Rydia? Member Mystidia? Member the Dragoons? Oh member Chocobos? Oh yeah I memeber.... lol
#🍇, seriously though music is the best-ist.....
Relic Radiation Definitely agree.
Relic Radiation It is ranked number 23 in RPG but this is my favorite
I like SNES Final Fantasy 3 (now called 6) better, but this is still pretty epic!
AGREED!! STILL LOVE IT!! CHANGED MY LIFE, INSPIRED ME TO BECOME A MUSICIAN!!

This will forever be my most favorite game no matter how much it ages
This is one of the best games ever made,
yeah it is, it's my favorite ff game ever!
MY FAVORITE VIDEO GAME OF ALL TIME!!!!!!!!
Out of all of the FF games ive played this one has the best character development and story. I can't stay interested in the other ones.
this is the best ff game hands down. i agree 100% the characters and story I wish were remade modernly how good it is
this one has been remade more then any of them (ps1, GBA, PSP VEITA)...Prob missing a few lol
DS, mobile, Steam too I think
Steve Muntz The remakes are all terrible, it needs a ps4 remake like ff7
I am really happy you did a playthrough of this game! By far one of my favorites in the series, as always you did a great job!
This game right here was actually my introduction to RPG in life. I purchased it at a "Funcoland" never actually knowing what it really was and I never looked back since. RPG's are my favorite genre of gaming.
Man...funcoland. That’s a throwback right there . The kids today would have no idea what that is. But I’m 33 so I remember it haha
I believe any child who had this game and the understanding to play it had some great experiences and a pretty blessed childhood.
I still have my original copy I got when this came out. One of my favorites! I prefer the clunky translations in this one to the newer remakes. Nice job!
I do too. I even have the box and insert in mint condition.
Some of the lines, I feel, are delivered better in this game. Just a few examples I can think of off the top of my head, "The crystal was shedding its light silently," and "The crystal isn't just jewelry!" and "and grieve that no other way remains" all sound a LOT more meaningful and memorable than every other version since.

OP was only 4 months after his passing and before it was widely known.
Years later you showed me a secret in a secret, the Change Rod. I had discovered Rydia's Tiara as a kid, never knew the second path existed. Thanks buddy, hope you found peace.
I always thought that the back of Cecil's helmet looked like a sad face.
This is the legendary Final Fantasy game of 2018
I was a poor kid, so when SNES came out, it was either goto KMart to play the display super Mario world standing up, or my one friend who had one real early on, but he was a dick and wouldn't let anyone touch it. He had Final Fantasy 2 and I'd goto his house just watch him play this. Lol, just watching was great for me. I remember being so amazed by the soundtrack
Jeremy would enjoy knowing he brought back some memories for you. Jeremy's Dad
Fantastic game. One of the very best FF's.
Awesome start, yo! Also gotta love how you just fry Kainazzo.
This was A GREAT GAME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
still a amazing game.. love the battle system and... better then 15 hands down
Final fantasy has always been ghey. I'll beat it to Tifa Lockhart. Other than that - it's trash
Iconic music!
I love this game it's one of my Favorite games to play
All I can say is wow!! It's been so long since I've played this game.. I had to order it from Squaresoft because the stores didn't have it anymore
OH wow It's interesting to see the graphical difference between this and the gameboy advance version
I missed playing this game
delaney k get the emulator and games online emuparadise and free...
Emulators are a last resort. But since the price of an original cartridge is so high, buy a reproduction cart' for $20 or less and play it on a real SNES with the original controller, or on a clone system like the Retron Duo.
I loved this game FF and FF2 are the only games in the saga I played and conquered.
I love this game!!
This ❤🎉 used to be my favorite game.
Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment. Jeremy would have been glad to hear that another fan of the older games had watched. Jeremy’s dad
Still have my game, , and mint box. Also Final fantacy 3 with mint box and instructions.
I'm about to start this. Snes yea boy!
Hey have you done Chrono Trigger?
Yeah, a long time ago. Way back when I didn't quite have a good plan on how to do RPGs...I should have cut it down to three videos instead of 2 long ones. Also, I think I go through the dialogue a little too quickly...But I suppose if you're a speed reader, it shouldn't be a problem.. :P
SaikyoMog Well I am sorry to hear that at least he is in a better place now but it sucks that he went so soon
Fun facts- Final Fantasy 2 is actually English USA released of Final Fantasy 4 during after original Japanese Super Famicom Final Fantasy 4 come out.
Fun fact: This US version is based off FF 4 Easy Type from Japan.
All of the hardcore FF fans already know this.
@@Bloodreign1
What? I thought the ff4 easy type was based on this version. Seeing as it added an alternate zeromus. This version has the original zeromus.
I'll have to double check
So far all I've seen is ff2 being based on ff4 japanese, with ff4 easy type being based on our ff2 with some additional changes on top of it.
not that it matters. ff2/4 is great no matter what region came first.
how did ppl ever play games like this back in the day without walkthroughs?
That was the shit. Having to find out were to go next was a challenge the first time . Now i known were alot about this game. Best game ever
@mma forever, I remember being a 10 year old with a key trying to find the underground... Took me a week I think, eventually just threw the key into the well, and viola... Next area unlocked
Nice walkthroughs!! In case You accept some requests, could You walkthrough the great and unique Vagrant Story? It would be really great!
As much as I'd like to do PS1 games, I can't. Plus, with my life ending in about 6 months due to my terminal cancer, I'm just doing games I wish to do more or less....
Oh my...very sorry to hear that! and just forget I said anything, May GOD be with You.
+SaikyoMog I'm reading this a year later. I'm praying for your health and that the worst hasn't happened.

This game was so Legen What? Legen-DARY!
Why does the Intro look like it's flickering?
I found a copy of this game at a store that sells retro and modern games and I bought it. Unfortunately, I'll need an SNES console to play it.
I always grinded cash outside of Mydisia so i could buy all the paladin and twin armor before leaving. Made life much easier later on
8:30
cain should have responded: "Ok you lost me here....."
This is final fantasy 4 tho ?
It was originally listed as FF2 when it came to the US(Japanese 2 and 3 were never ported back then).
Swag Money Yes, since its the 4th game in the FF series although its the second game that was released in the US.
is this ff4?
Yes
in japan
isnt this 4??
It is 4 in Japan but 2-3 were never released in the US. So this was technically 2 in US
Everyone please see

i just got this game and i had no idea it would was going to be FFIV. I assumed it was actually ff2. how ignorant of me
My favorite game Pokemon takes second
When fighting the General and soldiers when they come to get Rydia in Kapio or in the battle to protect Fabul kill the General/Sargent in back row first you get extra exp and Gil that way kill one of the soldiers so it dont run, I did this one time since the guy in back never attacks just orders.... The battle with Kain after that you can "kill kain" with cheating (level 99) no exp and you still lose. LOL
(spoiler)
the twins! noooo!!!! >.
ugh.... the us version.... I regret playing this version instead of the Japanese version....
Japan's got two versions, one is the one later ported to the PS1, DS, and PSP, and of course, the Easy Type, the one ported here to the US on the SNES.
I destroyed Kainazzo too lol
Me egañado este es FINAL FANTASY 4 no el 2
in america, this is FINAL FANTASY 2.
People still calling this game FF2?
P
Trump must've gotten his presidential style from the King of Baron.
I never liked this game I gave it a chance several times it just did not have a fun feel to it
This game made awful use of the SNES specs. The GBA version looks so much better
worst thing about this game is the timed battle system. so dumb >.>
but all you fooks ate it up.
