Final Fantasy IX - Credits

And to finish things up, here are the ending credits to the game. I was going to skip this, but I figured why not. Maybe some of you like the ending song.
Anyway, this ends my FFIX series of videos. Someone wanted me to do a video showing how to beat Yan's (the toughest random encounter enemies in the game), but I don't think they're tough at all really. They die to two 9999 moves, their scariest move is Comet (can OHKO one person randomly), and their Snort move is annoying, but they're still really manageable. It's only when you encounter 3 of them in a group where you might get your ass handed to you even at LV99.
So yea, no plans for anymore FFIX videos, done with the game. If you never played it, I highly recommend it. It's not my favorite FF, but as I said in an earlier video, I think it's very underrated as a FF. It's only like $10 on PSN right now (even though I own the PSX version, I bought the PSN port for convenience for recording in HD).
Hope you guys enjoyed this series, got a new series starting tomorrow! (No, it's not FFXIII-2...or FF). As for you Brawl guys, relax, tourney videos coming soon too!...And as for you KH Hacked Fight fans, once again, relax, I'm still working on making more, just haven't had much time lately.

This was the last real final fantasy game i enjoyed playing sadly. I look at what its become since it became ENIX and as a longtime fan anything after FFX just isn't like a classic final fantasy game anymore. ATB battles, the beautiful, classic, traditional music they used to use, now all orchestral style and not much from Nobuo Uematsu anymore. Just my opinion guys. Don't get me wrong though, i still like the new games but they will never be as great as FFI-X
