I m Not So Hungry Now

via: nebezial.deviantart.com Of all the Final Fantasy games, VIII is probably one of the least favorable of the series. While I still don't understand how some FF fans have poor taste (this will be a debate for another time), VIII has some of the most hilarious and confusing abilities of the series. One of its commands, Devour, is a perfect example of it. The ability allows you to instantly defeat an enemy by eating it and recover a massive amount of HP, at the same time. The funniest thing about Devour is the fact that it censors the game with a flower background screen and a message asking the player to stand by while the player feasts on the monster. proposes an uncensored version of Devour with this comic strip. As the beast downs Rinoa, Quistis proposes to use the ability to finish the monster. The reader gets to see the action through Squall's eyes which leave him in a petrified state.

An Eye To A Stab

via: videogameindonesia.com Sephiroth is probably the most recognized villain of the Final Fantasy series. His physical appearance and calm attitude is often the reason why fans of the series worship him (I'm not kidding). Throughout FF VII, the villain takes a guilty pleasure at teasing Cloud and his friends, while staying committed to his objective. While he mostly controls his emotions pretty well (except THAT time when he burnt Nilbelheim down), it would be funny to see his anger take the best of him. That's what 's masterpiece is proposing. The artist suggests that Sephiroth's wrath started with Cloud playing a prank on him. The one-winged warrior retaliates by stabbing Aerith, which is a reference to one of the saddest scenes in the game. Though we're not used to seeing Sephiroth lose his calm attitude, we can't help to laugh at this re-imagined story.

He Must Wish To Be A Dream Now

via: jfrteam.deviantart.com Personally speaking, Final Fantasy X's ending is the most emotional of the series. Heck, it even made me cry (don't judge me). Tidus & Yuna's relationship often seems like the perfect commitment level that women wish they had with their men (no offense, ladies). While players got to explore the beginning of the hero's coupling, we wonder if this level of commitment would be the same after a while. brilliantly explores the struggle of the couple. As Tidus promises that he'd do anything for her, he backtracks when Yuna wants to see 50 Shades Of Grey. Now don't get me wrong, I don't have any ill feeling towards Mr. Grey's "grown-up leisure," it is just not my kind of movie to watch, just like Tidus. On the other side, I wouldn't mind going inside the Mogucinema. I wonder if the staff is only composed of Moogles. Who knows, kupo!

Po-Cidly Not What You Thought

via: double-xp.com For those who followed Final Fantasy XV's development, you may remember how people criticized buxom-blonde mechanic Cindy Arum for her revealing outfit. Moreover, her appearance raised questions about female representation in video games. Despite that, FF XV was a commercial success and sold more than seven million units. poke fun at this initial controversy. Instead of Cindy, the artists cast loud-mouthed pilot Cid Highwind from Final Fantasy VII. The funny part about the image is that he sports the female mechanic's clothes. Though Gladiolus and Prompto don't seem to notice the difference, Ignis and Noctis see the truth. It's a good thing the artists didn't replace Cindy with her grandfather, Cid Sophiar. I don't even want to think about it.

Wu-Brown Clan

via: butimnotanartisto.deviantart.com For those who haven't played the Dissidia titles, the series pits the main heroes of the marquee titles against the main villains. Though creating your dream Final Fantasy match may be a dream coming true for the hardcore fans, the series also suffers from quirky dialogues between the heroes that are often irrelevant to the story. shows a clear example of these sorts of conversations. Bartz—portrayed as a childish hot-head—receives a text message from Tidus. The X protagonist taunts Bartz by taking a selfie with Cloud and dubs themselves as Team Blondie. Visibly affected by it, the V protagonist asks Squall to take a selfie with him as they both have brown hair. While the artist represented the cheesy cutscenes of the Dissidia series, the most hardcore fans will also notice the subtle competition between Bartz and Tidus.

Fight Sleep Repeat

via: ry-spirit.deviantart.com If there's one thing that I'll remember the most about Final Fantasy XV, it's the easiness of leveling up. Unlike most Final Fantasy titles, the game allows you to complete mini-quests and hunts very early in the game which often results in solid teams, even at the beginning of the game. What's also unique in this entry is to conserve the experience points you gain and sleep at hotels to multiply it. In other words, players could fight foes for many day cycles before going to rest. did a great job at visualizing the sleep deprivation of the players by continually adopting this popular technique. The resting spot is trendy amongst hardcore players as It allows you to triple your acquired EXP for the hefty amount of 30 000 Gils. Though we feel sorry about Prompto getting slapped, we also have to admit that we've been adopting the same altitude as Noct.

From Rags To Riches

via: memecenter.com While RPGs are relatively fun and engaging to play, they sometimes lack logic. Heroes will often make the bravest move instead of simply making the most intelligent. For instance, I will never sacrifice myself from being petrified over a stranger I had just met a few hours ago (I don't know why people should neither). Another non-logical concept is the inn. Sure, it represents the resting area of an adventurer, but why would a business leave money to its customer when they initially have to make some? It is what Dorkly is denouncing in his comic. The strip features the motel owner charge a pocket-sized fee to FFIX protagonist Zidane. Upon looking around the inn, Zidane finds a treasure chest with a hefty amount of Gil. Sadly, Zidane's findings force the owner to close shop due to its poor "business model." Though it's always sad for anyone to experience a job loss, we certainly don't feel bad for those who have a terrible sense of entrepreneurship.

The Final Creed

via: ypthis.deviantart.com White Mages are an essential part of a Final Fantasy party as they provide healing support to your party. The spellcasters mostly wear white hooded robes to represent themselves. Though they are part of the Final Fantasy ritual, it is easy for any casual gamer to mistake the outfit for another one from a different video game series. is providing an example of such confusion. In the comic strip, the FFI party is recruiting the help of an individual, that seems to be a white magician, to complete a dungeon. Unbeknownst to the group, the white mage is from the famous stealth series Assassin's Creed. The party members simply mistook him for a white mage, due to the similarities of their hooded robes. Coincidentally, Final Fantasy and Assassin's Creed are no strangers to each other. Square Enix has included the brand on FF XV for a limited time.

Snowville Drama In Christmas

via: terra7.deviantart.com While Final Fantasy VIII is mostly criticized by fans (amateurs), the Final Fantasy XIII saga is my least favorite saga of the series. The confusing story and gameplay are far from being a fan favorite (Lightning Returns: Final Fantasy XIII excluded). A bad factor of the chapters is the paradigm shift battle system. In a nutshell, characters get to choose different job during combat. The party name—accompanied with a cheezy cheer up— modifies according to the members class. While some title names retain the primary setting of the group, others are utterly weird. makes a parody out of this fact. In the XIII saga, Serah is engaged to Snow Villers, one of the leading characters of the series. Noel is Serah's partner in FF XIII-2. Though Snow is primarily a guest character in XII-2, he is genuinely committed to Serah. The artist highlighted this fact by making the pugilist a jealous guy to the point of strangling Noel while fighting monsters.

You Should Know Betta

via: inyuo.deviantart.com Speaking of the XIII saga, it also felt refreshing to see a playable black-skinned character in the original title. As a black man myself, I'm often used to seeing black characters being featured in the most stereotypical (ugh) roles. However, RPGs do a great job at giving seasoned parts to black characters. gives us an example of how bad it can be to keep it too politically correct. In the comic, Sazh joins Lightning in her quest. Overly excited about her newest member, she calls her team "Diversity" due to the interracial nature of the party. Shocked by this graceless remark, Sazh quits the party much to Lightning's dismay. This scene is a reference to XIII's intro as Sazh joins Lightning to fight the numerous Psicom troops on the Purge train. Though it's only an imagined version, I can't help but laugh at this strip! I mean, what if Sazh would've done this?

Time To Prance Not

via: zacgorman.com Though Final Fantasy is an immensely popular series, it is sadly a victim of the marketing machine that tends to milk out every possible penny of the franchise. Collectors merchandise, posters, and lousy spin-off titles, are usually the most produced items out there. Theatrhythm Final Fantasy is a perfect example of this. Just like a rhythm game, players are required to touch a button at the right time to score points. Amongst the three-stage styles, the Field Mode allows you to make your character progress in a 2D-side scroller screen with the power of the rhythm. gives a robust example of how flawed this system is. In the strip, FFVI Terra is shown determined to save the world. As she gets ready to travel, she moves to the rhythm HUD, located at the top side of the screen. Quite odd, isn't it? Why would Square Enix transform such a fantastic game to a Rockband one?

Monster High School

via: lastplacecomics.com As much as we love the different characters of Final Fantasy, let us not forget about the recurring foes that have been in the series. Bombs, Cactuars, and Behemoths, are amongst the creatures that reasonably appear in most of the titles. Though they often meet their demise at the hand of the heroes, we can't help but imagine their lives before being savages. explores an altered timeline in which these creatures are high schoolers. In the strip, Marlbozo has a secret crush on Kevin, the Cactuar. However, Behemoth and Bomb keep on bullying the Marlboro teen and expose her secret crush to Kevin. As he looks at her secret admirer, Marlbozo farts out of stress, which nearly suffocates her bullies. The gas is a reference to Bad Breath, Marlboro signature's attack. Oh, and bullying is terrible. Don't bully people, kids!

Dictator Ramza

via: lifeinaggro.com Final Fantasy Tactics is considered as a classic regarding the tactical-RPG genre. Its Game of Thrones-like story, characters, and gameplay, are the reasons why I'm still playing this game, 20 years later. Players get to control units in square tiles and must eliminate the enemies to win. They also get Job Points by defeating enemies. However, the game had a major exploit that players saw fit to use. brilliantly show the exploit, thanks to this art. In the strip, the party is almost done eliminating monsters, save for one Goblin. Instead of following the Squire's advice, party leader Ramza orders her to attack her fellow monk to gain experience. A moment later, we see the monk having a concussion from the many stone throws. As the comic suggests, JP can also be earned by simply attacking a team member. After all, we all want to finish the game by any means necessary, don't we?

Cecil The Confused Brother

via: emlan.deviantart.com Cecil's internal source of conflict is an essential topic in Final Fantasy IV. His transition to a Paladin is part of the reason why he's able to save the world. For those unfamiliar with FFIV's story, the main antagonist, Golbez, is revealed to be Cecil's brother. While both siblings are constantly fighting until later in the original game, Cecil seems to be very naive in Dissidia, as he constantly believes that Golbez is helping the Light Warriors. has made a comic spoof of Cecil's behavior towards Golbez, in Dissidia. He divided his comic into two columns. The Paladin column shows a benevolent Cecil that gets very sensitive with Golbez. The Dark Knight features an aggressive Cecil that wants to be loved by his brother. Contrary to his soft nature, the knight wants to unite himself so severely with Golbez that he's banging and scratching the door repetitively, much to Golbez's dissatisfaction. The comic also has a cameo appearance of Kuja, from Final Fantasy IX.

The Long Awaited Confession

via: meru-chan.deviantart.com FF8 players may remember the clumsy soldier-turned-president Laguna Loire. Though he may not be the most known character of the series, his moderate popularity landed him in Dissidia 012: Duodecim, on the PSP. Just like his FF8 counterpart, Laguna seems to be comic relief and a spirit-lifter in the game. did a great job at poking fun of Laguna in the image above. The strip refers to two elements: Laguna & Squall relationship and Dissidia's iconic cutscenes. Though never explicitly said in the original game, Laguna is Squall's father. Also, the strip's dialogue is similar to most of Dissidia's cutscenes; characters often have RPG cliché conversations with another hero. The cameo appearances of Zidane, Terra, and Bartz, strongly remind me of myself when I'm at a crucial moment in a game.

No More Merchandise Please

via: double-xp.com When Sony announced a remake of the Final Fantasy VII on the PS4 back at E3 2015, I can still remember my brother's joyful reaction like it was yesterday. After countless years of hopeless dreams, hardcore FFVII fans would finally get what they wished. While an HD port of FFXII released in the meantime, there haven't been any other sizeable announcements that released for the 30th anniversary of the Final Fantasy series. expose the company's flaw of filling the empty spaces with pricey merchandise. As Square Enix doesn't have much information to keep us in the loop, they are trying to make us buy some useless collectibles under the fact that they are limited edition. How about pouring that extra time into the development of the Final Fantasy VII remake instead of feeding the eBay collectible sellers, Square-Enix?

What s My Name

via: benetoite.deviantart.com FFX was the first title of the series to include voices. Though the lip syncing was far from being perfect, the developer has done a great job to translate the written dialogues onto the audio. Another interesting fact is that the game script has been written to not include the default name of Tidus nor his player-chosen name. Instead, the name was replaced by different titles that Tidus bears (guardian, bro, etc.) throughout the game. While it might have saved a headache to the developer, we can't help but think how it truly affected the mood of our blitzball player. is proposing a smart representation of Tidus' feelings towards being unnamed. The artist did a great job with the drawing as he included the many names that Tidus is being referred to during the game.

Vilains Inc

via: vick330.deviantart.com The Final Fantasy villains are part of the series' winning formula. Though we wish some of them would've never seen the light of a console (*ahem* Exdeath), most of the series antagonists are part of the most memorable villains in RPG video game history. While they may be the cruelest characters, their outfits don't always match with their personalities. It is this universal RPG reality that wanted to explore with his art. In the strip, Sephiroth (FFVII) & Ultimecia (FFVIII) are parents to Kuja (FFIX), Seymour (FFX), and Leblanc (FFX-2). Their horrible clothing taste seems to have passed from a generation to another. Not only do they look like Halloween costumes, but buy they're also revealing. On another note, the artist did a great job at placing the parents and kids in their chronological title orders.

Cloud & Seph Vs The Rest Of The World

via: supersaiyancrash.deviantart.com Cloud and Sephiroth's rivalry is perhaps one of the best known in RPG history. Their fights have not only appeared in the FFVII saga but also in other series like Kingdom Hearts. It has also been an influence on the Dissidia series, as the producers wanted to recreate the dynamics of the Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children anime movie. Coincidentally enough, every Final Fantasy hero is also pitted against their nemesis. takes a look at Cloud & Sephiroth's history in Dissidia. While these eternal rivals had the prerogative of clashing countlessly, this exclusivity has been rescinded when Dissidia released. Now, every hero has the opportunity to fight against their nemesis. Additionally, players can even choose their opponents to create dream matches. Not too shabby!

A Session With A Therapist

via: knowyourmeme.com (Greg Grondin) As much as the villain, the protagonist is also an integral part of Final Fantasy, as players get attached to them. From a solitary SOLDIER to a cheerful blitzball player, every protagonist has its own complicated story. However, their narrative is often filled with non-sense elements that make gamers cringe. Greg Grondin is taking a look at the far-fetched storylines of four modern Final Fantasy characters: Cloud, Squall, Zidane, and Tidus. The strip illustrates a personal therapy session with the characters. Each of them reveals the most shocking moments of their respective titles to the therapist. Though every square of this comic is funny, the artist did a particularly fine job at depicting Tidus as an overthinker. His bubble is a reference to his status as a created dream (best you play the game if you don't get it). In the end, we all love our main FF heroes, except Vaan.
