Evil Forest - Final Fantasy 9 Music (WITH ambient forest sounds!) 

it's probably the Evil Misty Rebirth that does not let you see clearly.

"As long as we rememmmberrrr"

These moves make people legendary.

Same here bro! Those were the days.

i did the same thing with the Chrono Cross opening.

I had a Super Nintendo before my brother and I could afford the first playstation. We used it as we did our SNES, on the floor, controllers in front of the TV. We had a carpet, and kid us wound up messing up our system. I have been a life long fan of final fantasy, some of the best music you can relax to.

Did this with Find your Way on my FF8 on PS1

It's before you know much at all about the world, after a big crash with all the characters you know scattered to the wind, and right before the first real boss battle. Truly the pinnacle of mystique.

It does a fantastic job not only being a tutorial dungeon and carrying the plot forward, but introducing the affects of the mist on living things tying into Garland's plans regarding the soul cycle saving his world, etc. While FF has had great foreshadowing in the past, I think FF9 was masterful at it. Of course having a great pay off for it helps too. 😊 So, yeah, I can definitely see why it's your favorite. Mine is definitely Memoria though. The way everything comes together where memories are made manifest is just so cool to me.

Yeah man, this entire area encapsulates why high fantasy is so amazing. It's got the mystery, fear of the unknown, and ADVENTURE!

It certainly was one of my favorite portions of the world - and I enjoyed the entire game!

The first few hours of this game leading up to Lindblum were filled to the brim with intrigue and adventure.

Just so people understand my comment, what Frankeh has done here is really cool, there are infinite other uploads of this which sound shite, Frankeh has not only included the ambient sounds of the Owls and stuff, but also professionally looped the audio at the exact seamless point, which nobody else has appeared to have bothered doing. This has always been one of my fave Uematsu pieces, it conveys such an incredibly huge amount of ATMOSPHERE! Thanks Frankeh.

Its a masterpiece

You're right. It reminds me of 7.

I remember picking this game up in 2001, fell in love with the soundtrack and story. Perfect game imo

Christmas Morning in 2003. My brother's copy of it technically but shortly, I got into it and it became my all time favorite FF game.

20?!!? I grind alone with Zidane til 7, then kill off and strip Blank later and fire nuke the endless 3-4 plant monsters at a time with Vivi til everyone is 7s/8 😳

Impressive! I think 8 is as far as I got. 20 is definitely very prudent though.

I never kill off any characters. I always use a phoenix down if a character dies or use the Life spell.

@@princessmagical Yeah, but with Blank he never returns. There IS some kind of correlation with his or Marcus' stats with Eiko later on...somehow. It was wild when I learned it, but blank was sucking up the XP by 1/4th in the forest :P

I level 1 until Eiko otherwise she misses out on lots of magic stones. My Eiko is always super OP haha

True

Also has the story of Joseph is based off of Josef from Final Fantasy 2.

Ah, I see. Like when the burmecian soldier runs up on her and freaks out when he figures out who she is? I possibly could... only Id have to speed run in fast motion all the way there since I dont make multiple saves... where would you want me to stop the dialogue so the rain and music could continue?

@@Frankeh yeah exactly that! the dialogue box where he's like "Beatrix?!", so you can appreciate the rain and music and all. i've been wanting to use it for my dnd campaign lmao
