The fights with the supposedly bad Beatrix in FF9 and losing to her badly twice, until that one moment in Alexandria where she comes around to the truth and you get to fight using her. That bit with her and Steiner stuck out with me first time I played it.
A kings tail: Final Fantasy XV The opening scene when noctis is get a story read to him by his father, and we get to hear the 8 bit music. It's just a kick in testalgias. Being a newer game it goes unnoticed and it a little sad
While it lacks the *reach* of some of these moments by virtue of being a 'side game', Final Fantasy Type-0 (HD particularly, if only for the improved graphical quality) has been one of the most visually and narratively impactful experiences of all of gaming for me, never mind Final Fantasy. The many, *many* sacrifices; the heartbreaking lies and betrayals; the unfair, unavoidable losses along the way; the sadness even in the cameos and side stories of the game; the *inevitability* of the entire narrative: it's all breathtaking. Specific mentions, in no particular order [SPOILERS (just in case)]: The final boss fight; Qator's sacrifice and Aria's subsequent unfortunate death; The summoning of Alexander; Machina and Rem's showdown.
FF9 getting two spots, made me smile. Never played 7 though, so perhaps i should give the remake a try when its completed. Heard it pulls on the heart strings.
bamachine people who say they didn’t cry there (especially if they played as a child like I did when it first came out) are flat out lying lol. I recently replayed the whole game again for like the 20th time and still hurts...right in the feels
It’s funny hearing how different everyone pronounces the names of things from the games that were text only. Ben said Balamb, Edea and Galbadia all totally different to me!
I would have put in FF4, when we fight Edge's parents become monsters. Also, Palom and Porom petrifying themselves, the death of Tellah, Cecil's reflect battle, the Lunar Whale...
Well, it's never said once throughout the whole game. And I will never get with the Teedus movement. It sounds worse than the forced laughter. Hrmm, maybe start a trend. Call him Toadus!
It's pronounced Tee-dus same was as you pronounce Tifa ans Tee-fa also the laugh scene is meant to be dumb and awkward and sounds even worse in the Japanese version lol.
Final Fantasy X's... Hum... Cringiness... Is more a meme than an actual thing. Nothing encapsulates it better than the "laughing scene" which is ALWAYS taken out of context (it's been 18 years! Why does this keep happening?!) And it's Tee-dus, not Tie-dus.
The Opera scene in 6. The music is so beautiful.
Final Fantasy VIII when Squall and Rinoa are on the spaceship while the beautiful song Eyes on me plays.
Final Fantasy VI the opera house part, I just always loved that part
Celes' suicide attempt was gripping too
@@truindividual Interchangeable with Kefka wins in some ways; wonderful stuff.

I love ff10 and Tidus and Yunas Story.
Seeing a bit awkward Teen romance in such a sad world warmed my heart
Honestly, the intro FMV of FFVII running and then blending straight into gameplay still gives me the chills.
"Unless you have a GameShark, but that doesn't count."
*Laughs in Cheater Austin*
I have never played a FF game, but listening to Ben talk about is still a richard slapping experience :-)
I've only had second hand exposure to FFXV, but even that little bit slapped a ton. It's a great franchise.
It is a Tidus laughing experience.
I would've swapped out the final battle of VII with Sephiroth standing in the flames of Nibelheim.
Good call.
Agreed, I didn't understand why that wasn't in there, that's the MOST iconic scene IMO.
Don't forget gilgmesh sacrifice in ff5. His Omoge to galuf alone in his dying moment was heartfelt.

A train suplex
I remember the final campfire in FFXV bringing up loads of emotion from me, incredibly powerful scene
FFXIV has some of the most memorable moments of FF and is the best one
The Barrett-Cloud date in the Gold Saucer 😂
There better be some Vivi goodness in here...
Ben: Number 10...
Me: XD
FF9 getting two spots, made me smile.

U will be waiting a long time
Blitzball is one of the best fictional sports. I bet they can make a spinoff primarily about it.
Thank you for saying Tidus’ name the right, non-ridiculous way.
The twins turning to Stone ff4 and The burning of Neibel in FF7 over the final battle
Nanaki finally learning the truth about his father, still my most emotional moment of FFVII.

Who wrote this script? Well done!
Nah X’s most iconic moment is the opening, Tidus and Yuna’s kiss and the ending.
FFXII Balthier and Fran staying on bored Sky Fortress Bahamut to stop it crashing into Rabanastre.
I would have put in FF4, when we fight Edge's parents become monsters. Also, Palom and Porom petrifying themselves, the death of Tellah, Cecil's reflect battle, the Lunar Whale...
Some real Richard slapping moments!
What about Evan slapping moments?
How do you not have the Opera House in this?!?!?
I always thought Gau's "reunion" with his father in FF6 was quite sad.
Ben Potter is the 1st TH-camr that I have seen that actually says Tidus correctly.
Seeing as how that's a real name I'm genuinely surprised by that. XD
@@em_birch It happens all the time on other channels. I know Rob from Playstation Access is one of those people who says "Teedus."
Well, it's never said once throughout the whole game. And I will never get with the Teedus movement. It sounds worse than the forced laughter. Hrmm, maybe start a trend. Call him Toadus!
"Tee-dus" is how his name is pronounced. Most people say it like Ben (Tie-dus). Yuna even says it like "Tee-dus" In Dissidia: Duodecim.
I'd of had the moment in 8 after saving rinoa you land down into a battlefield and control squall across it even though it's a video.
How can it be there's no "Every Final Fantasy game ranked"? I need your help man 😂 can't decide between 6, 7 and 9
I'd say FF 8 is still a fever dream of the creator. I feel like the outlier for FF 7 music, I was always more into J-E-N-O-V-A
It's pronounced Tee-dus same was as you pronounce Tifa ans Tee-fa also the laugh scene is meant to be dumb and awkward and sounds even worse in the Japanese version lol.
Everyone knows the laugh scene is supposed to be dumb and awkward. The problem is they overshot their goal to disastrous results.
@@yourgameisstupid Do they? Cause whenever that game is mentioned that scene appears as if everyone won't recognize it for anything else it has.
@@AlmightyPolarBear Yes, they do. The scene is an abomination and an embarrassment to the franchise; anything else it has is overshadowed.
Best game series ever period!
Good effort on the script, maybe just a bit wordy and earnest. But hey, we got some FF content on the channel!
Cecil Paladin cough cough
Hoping FF6 features in this...
Final Fantasy X's... Hum... Cringiness... Is more a meme than an actual thing. Nothing encapsulates it better than the "laughing scene" which is ALWAYS taken out of context (it's been 18 years! Why does this keep happening?!)
And it's Tee-dus, not Tie-dus.
YES! BASED LIST!
FF14 has some big ones imo.
Heh...Butz...
No part of FFXV deserves to be anywhere near this list.
