Posted on April 27, 2024 by Nathan

Posted on April 12, 2024 by Nathan

I’ve reached Zeromus, the final boss in Final Fantasy IV (the Game Boy Advance version), but haven’t been able to beat him. I can’t really think of anything to do other than just leveling up some more, but I suppose … Continue reading →

You’ve Got a Fiend in Me

Posted on March 17, 2024 by Nathan

I wrote a bit about the Four Fiends from Final Fantasy before, but I’ve since thought of more to say. Four of the main bosses in the first games, they’re associated with the four classical elements, and are causing the destruction … Continue reading →
