Magic is one of the fundamental gameplay elements within the Final Fantasy franchise, but its application has varied in quite significant ways from game to game.
It all started with two simple schools, Black Magic and White Magic, but as the franchise evolved, numerous other schools were included and by the end of the main numbered series there have been 21 different magic schools.
How magic can be used and learnt has also seen a lot of change and throughout this video we're going to delve into the depths to highlight how mechanics have evolved over time!

Thank you all so much for watching this video and interacting with us! This was such an expansive topic to delve into and there were some unfortunate discrepancies on our part! As we can't edit the video, we thought it would be prudent to make a list in this comment and we'll add more as we find more! 8:47 Instead of using Kain's sprite for the Dragoon, we accidentally used Cecil's Dark Knight sprite! 11:23 This one is quite embarrassing, but Geomancy actually first appeared in Final Fantasy III, not V 15:43 We didn't outright say it, but even though equipment could not be used to cast spells, items still could be 19:10 Not mentioned, but every character could use Double Cast, but Lulu took the concept further 23:40 Even though a lot of spells could be learnt by everyone, there were restrictions for the higher level spells 25:25 Summoners and Astrologians did have magic schools (Arcanima and Astromancy)

A bit of a spoiler for the Shadowbringers expansion of FFXIV, but they actually revealed in that that it turns out Light is aligned with stasis and stagnation, whereas Dark is the opposite. Heck the lore is so deep in XIV I could go on for days about it! Though my favourite tidbit is a line in a book in the English language version of one of the dungeons, which explains that the in-universe reason for the I II III IV numbering system for spells is because the scholars couldn't decide which suffix to use next!

@@inflatablemattress2 well, about the game generally, I’ve decided not to worry too much about the story and focus most of my efforts on establishing world building through unique missions that doesn’t involve fighting monsters. I think that it’s best to just go simple for my first game. About the magic system, I’ve chosen ff13 trope to base how magic is viewed, in a negative light since magic is pretty much associated with monsters and other threats to humans. I’ve pretty much ironed out how my game’s story, side-content, and progression system will pan out. I still don’t know what it’s gonna look like, specifically which pixelated style I would like to use, but I have no idea what to do after I’m done with the conception phase. Obviously, it’s to actually start MAKING the game, but I can’t draw nor make code. So to answer your question, it’s coming along very, very slowly.

@Sinalve1
@Sinalve1 3 года назад
In XIV up until Stormblood, certain jobs/classes could wield magic from other classes that had been leveled up as part of the cross-class system. This would allow Thaumaturge to cast Aero, a DoT spell typically used by Conjuerer or Gladiator to cast Cure or Stoneskin which pulls again from Conjurer. Due to reworking the cross class system into the cross role system with Stormblood's release, the cross class system was phased out, and now all jobs that fit a certain role will learn actions including spells, weaponskills, and abilities fitting that role.

I think it's worth noting that XII returned to 4 tier levels of magic, and that the names determined if they were AoE or not. For example Fire was single target, Fira was AoE, Firaga was single target, and Firaja was AoE.

I definitely enjoyed this explanation of magic. Just as many friends with final fantasy nowaday, when I first started with ff9 - ff12 - ff8 ffx- ff1&2 -& ff 7, I always took magic for granted and just used the 3 basic blk a cure. When I next played ff13, I got to really see how useful indirect magic can be and to really explore magic, playing the other main ff games, and replaying the previous games i played before.

I squeaked with excitement so many times throughout this video, from the brief visual 'mention' of Anduin from WoW (my boi!) and onward... As I've said before my first Final Fantasy was 7 - I had no idea about the Job system at all. I never did get the hang of the Junction stuff OR the Draw command in 8... and still had no idea what Blue magic even meant when I finally began to play Final Fantasy 14. And now I have explored so much about all of it, and have been utterly fascinated by the magic of Eorzea, to the point that I am actively hammering out ideas for a fan fic that delves more into those ideas. (I write a LOT of Final Fantasy 14 fan fic at this point, almost a million words posted in the last year, I think I have a problem LOL!) This was such a well done and thorough video. I'd like to see a sequel someday where you can touch on the magic systems in the non-main-sequence games, because Tactics had some fascinating aspects to it - but I fully understand why you wanted to try to keep the length under control, here! Thank you so much once again for a great video!

Two notes about FFXIV's magic. You mentioned scholar and summoner, but not their magic type: Arcanima, which takes from the glyphs and diagrams in their books. There's also Astromancy, used by Astrologians, as another school of magic that focuses on the stars (and Geomancy, it's far-eastern counterpart, focuses on the planet).

I have recently been replaying all the early Final Fantasy games through the pixel remasters lately and what stood out to me how dang powerful magic is in FF6 which does make sense plot wise to it. In FF6 the level 2/ra spells are so strong in that game that they are still literally viable to use even in the final boss battle. You can easily hit an enemy for 5-6k damage with a neutral Fira at the end of the game and if they are weak to the element then you will do 9999 damage. Still the best strategy is to just go for quick then spam dual cast flare or ultima with an MP cost reducing relic.

@12ealDealOfficial 3 года назад
Difficult to say which FF game had the best magic system. I like the cheese-ability of FF8's system the most with the Triple Triad integration. This is probably because once stats were nice and padded with plenty of refined magic, you had incentive to ignore magic altogether. The only games I dabbled with magic successfully were Demon's Souls and its sequels, especially Demon's given how broken Faith made the second half of the game. FFX made magic super simple, while FF4 made every spell useful no matter how late in the game you were. Too much flexibility in games like FFXII put me off, as I never get the impression in games like those that I'm playing optimally without a guide. All in all, a pretty interesting video! Props to the new editor!

This is my magic system, it’s called "stone craft" (Tolad language: L'ndith /ləndiθ/): -Stone craft can have many potential uses, both necessary (transportation, medicine) and trivial (cosmetics, entertainment), but it is seldom used (usually only by elites and scholars) because it can be dangerous. Stone craft manifests itself through precious crystals, called "wizard stones" (or 'khridhvel’nt' /χriðvɛlənt/ in the Tolad /tɔlad/ language). Users summon Stone craft by properly reciting Tolad incantations while making physical contact with wizard stones. If used properly, Stone craft can help its users solve problems and give the user powers such as teleportation, healing, disguise, etc. -Stone craft is mostly used by elites and scholars, as they have the resources to obtain wizard stones and learn incantations in Tolad. Although extremely rare, a handful of individuals (regardless of class) are predisposed by birth to contain quantities of wizard stones in their blood streams, which enables such individuals, called the "stone-blooded" (or 'l’ndrogh' /ləndrɔʁ), to use (or be used for) Tolad incantations without crystals. -Natural wizard stones are a limited resource which is strictly guarded by henchmen who work for the elites. However, some scholars can secretly synthesize artificial wizard stones by using fragments of natural crystals to convert other matter into it. Elites consider this conversion theft, and make attempts to persecute scholars and the stone-blooded for their usage. Stone craft can become addictive if used multiple times during a short period. For incantations, unrounded vowels require two wizard stones (for height and backness) while rounded vowels require a third for roundedness; length and stress also warrant more. Voiceless consonants require two (for place and manner of articulation) with voice and ejectivity also warranting more. Users can be defeated by simply running out of it or using it incorrectly. -After being used for an incantation, wizard stones quickly sublimate into an odorless, toxic gas which can cause temporary paralysis/vision impairment if inhaled (although this usually isn’t fatal and lasts on average temporarily for ten-15 minutes). Large scale sublimation can cause pollution and collateral damage to ecosystems. The stone-blooded are sought after and are particularly vulnerable to abduction/slavery for their natural abundance of wizard stones. Criminals are often punished with harmful incantations (in addition to the temporary paralysis/vision impairment). Wizard stones can be used to cure debilitating illnesses, but there is a price to pay; that illness must be transferred to another lifeform (usually to the aforementioned criminals). Anti-elitist possession of wizard stones is often severely punished by the elites, who fear class mobility from its usage by lower classes. -Wizard stones were created naturally by “paramount comets” (or 'k’al’nv’t' /kʼalənvət/), which impacted and their supernatural minerals became embedded within the ground. Eons later, the Tol tribes settled throughout the rugged landscape which was shaped by craters from paramount comets. As the Tol civilization developed, farmers, paid laborers, slaves, and other workers participated in architecture projects and engineering endeavors, including construction, agriculture and landscaping. One day, according to legend, four Tol slaves were ordered by their master to explore a cave in search of fresh drinking water. One of them brought a torch so they could see through the darkness and deep within the cave, they discovered beautiful rock formations covered in crystals. After one if the slaves yelled in amazement, the unstable ceiling caved in and they were buried in an avalanche of crystals. They were wounded and crystal particles became imbued in their blood streams as a result. Only one of the slaves was still conscious afterwards and made cries for help. To his amazement, the stones surrounding his body sublimated and then he passed out from blood loss and the toxic fumes. Hours later, the four slaves regained consciousness in the cave and miraculously escaped from the pile of crystals. Their language, the Tolad language, was the first language ever uttered within the crystal’s vicinity, which triggered a mutation that only allowed the crystals understand Tolad. There may be undiscovered crystals that haven’t been exposed to Tolad and thus available for another language. They were physiologically altered by the crystals, it fused with their dna and several of their descendants became the stone-blooded from the wizard stone's dominant gene. After emerging from the cave, the four men used their new abilities to free themselves from slavery and become a quadrumvirate which would unite the Tol tribes beneath a federation. Their cooperation and even distribution of land to rule within the federation enabled an era of peace and prosperity for the Tol federation, which balkanized after their deaths. During the power vacuum, Tol elites usurped control of separate territories and became fiercely protective of the wizard stones, often warring with each other over the crystals. Scholars were employed by the elites to study the wizard stones so that elites could utilize their power. -Even today, Stone craft is strictly guarded by the elites and their henchmen, although its existence is no secret. Most people among the lower classes could benefit from wizard stones but most wouldn’t dare try to obtain it from fear of severe punishments by the elites. Additionally, Tolad language resources are scarce beyond the elites’ mansions. Elites and scholars have established a wizard stone society to regulate what Tolad words and phrases can be used for incantations. These approved incantations are recorded in a text called “the canon” (or 't’avdru' /tʼavdru/), which is updated every year. Some rogue scholars illegally practice their own unapproved incantations. Although there is no particular set of clothing that distinguishes users, elites are (needless to say) the most well dressed of the classes and thus, fine linens and robes could possibly indicate usage. However, not all elites can be bothered to learn about wizard stones or how to use it. Additionally, scholars, who are the most familiar with wizard stones, are different from elites in that they generally prefer to stay away from attention. They often disguise themselves among the lower class, which also include some of the stone-blooded. The lack of incentive to procure wizard stones or resources to learn the Tolad language has made many lower class citizens indifferent to Stone craft. tl;dr: rich guys use magic crystals to do stuff sometimes.

I like 15 a lot because of how different it is, instead of the people being magical, the world itself is, while the people stay pretty much non magical But I'd like to see a new system that takes into account both The Job Class of the characters and where the magic comes from, Black and White magic would become subcategories of "Intelligence Magic" used mostly by Mages, while Summoning/Beast Keeping and more physical magical effects like fog become subcategories of "Wisdom Magic" used by Ninjas, Druids and other "half warrior/half mage" jobs And finally creating a new unique type of "magic" that anyone including non magical jobs can use called probably "Enchanting Magic" or "Faith Magic", it's power comes from stealing or channeling the magic from Gods and powerful Demons, as well as Legendary Magical Items While a Typical Mage gets to cast all Variants of Fire, Blizzard, Lighting and Cure, with some buffs and debuff spells like Stop A similar Mage that associated with the church of Bahamut (assuming Bahamut is a good guy again) could channel cast Flare for 0 Mp cost and It would have similar power to a Firaja(Fire IV) with the exception it can only be casted a limited amount of times a day while Firaja can be casted an unlimited number of times assuming you get enough short rests from combat or enough magic potions to recharge your MP

Hey Final Fantasy Union and fans! Love your channel! Can you tell me if the book *The Legacy of the Crystal* holds the story of each FF in a Prosaic style? or just curiosities and technical details about the games? Thoughtfully...

i think magic lore might be interesting - whether it was widely available or taboo or central to the plot in each game

FFXI was also the first game to have magic be the focus of your damage. no other game implemented the skillchain/magic burst system like XI did and no other game required you to coordinate with your mages to give the highest damage output. back in the old days, you'd have a black mage begin casting their ancient magic, then have the skillchain begin so that it ended when the magic finally cast. and manaburn parties utilizing time nukes were also a think where 4-5 black mages would cast their stronger spell simultaneously to basically take a mob from 100-0 after all the spells cast. those were fun times
