About Us This site started in the year 2000 as Zidanesff9 Kingdom, which was unbelievably rubbish. It had 3 pages each with a different background colour. Over the years, it has had many layouts and lots of content added. Hits and visitors have risen significantly and it wouldn't be the site it is now without them. "We as a site, strive to provide the best Final Fantasy content and media on the net to help gamers and to provide them with the latest news and details of upcoming releases." |
Layout & Inspiration This layout was constructed using photoshop CS. I then sliced it up in the same program and coded it on notepad and frontpage. It is encoded using CSS and XHTML. The dropdown at the top is produced using scriptilicious and prototype javascripting.

Final Fantasy 12 is set in the world of Ivalice, for many years the two kingdoms
of Archadia and Rozarria have been fighting against each other in a bitter
struggle. Located in a intentionally important passage between the two powers is
the small kingdom of Dalmasca.
As a young adventure seeking man, he dreams of being able to command an airship
of his own. Ashe is the only daughter of the King of Dalmasca and therefore the
next inline to the throne. Following the invasion of her country, she becomes
the leader of the Resistance against the Empire. During a wild quest, she loses
one companion after the other. Despite her frantic situation, she still hasn't
lost the pride of a princess. In this situation she meets Vaan, and before long
loses her heart to him. Thus their combined adventure begins in Final Fantasy
XII.
In general, one of the dominant themes throughout the game is the question,
"What is true freedom?”
a long time because their very own beliefs are at odds. Their confrontation
seems to be gearing up to a big conflict, and the contact of that threat
explains why they have started absorbing buffer states like such as Dalmasca.
Final Fantasy XII takes place in Ivalice (from FFT / FFTA). The two mighty
empires of Archadia (on the Ordalia continent) and Rozarrian (on the Valendia
continent) are at each other's throat. Between them, the small but
technologically advanced kingdom of Dalmasca has been acting as a barrier for
some time. But Archadia invades peaceful Dalmasca, giving the setting of the
story.
Empire, especially a young boy named Vaan who believes it is
up to him to take Dalmasca back. Luckily, he's not alone. There's an entire
resistance group out there that are willing to help him out. The storyline of
Final Fantasy XII is definitely the best and most remarkable one in the series.
Full of complex and interesting characters, as well as plot twists that will
blow you away. 
Final Fantasy IV. All your
enemies are present on screen at a time, and you've got a battle menu on screen
all the time. It's still active, and there's still a waiting aspect, but you'll
be able to move around freely. It's similar to the system found in Final Fantasy
XI. You'll be able to attack, use spells and items just like you always have
been able to. The difference is you'll be running around, able to attack your
enemies freely. It eliminates the load times for random battles at least, and
it's fun. It can take a while to get used to, however, and some fans may never
grow to like it at all. 
As your characters approach an enemy they pull out their weapons and you can
begin to issue attacks. You can only play as one character at a time, but you
can still issue orders to other characters if you want. As a whole, the game is
pretty difficult. Enemies don't fool around, they often take advantage of your
disadvantage, and since it's all free roam, other enemies can just jump into the
battle whenever they feel like. You may find yourself swarmed before you know
it. 
drop. This wouldn't be a
problem if stuff wasn't s expensive, and if the items dropped by enemies didn't
sell for so little. Also, dungeon maps are huge. It's easy to get lost and
overshoot your objective sometimes, even with the ingame map provided. Although,
this may also be due to some camera issues. The last issue is the simple fact
that enemies coming up to fight you out of the blue is really painful when some
extremely powerful enemy just shows up from no where and takes you on. This
doesn't happen too much, but when it does it's annoying. The fact that save
points are few and far between doesn't help the situation either. 
attack,
or you can get more complex and have them heal anyone whose HP falls below fifty
percent, or even have them use specific items for specific conditions. You
could, for instance, set a character to use a Phoenix down on any character that
gets KO'd, or even have them use healing spells on the undead. Additional
Gambits are bought in shops our found in treasure chests. It's an interesting
system, but doesn't quite pick up until you're about halfway through the main
storyline. There are several possibilities to Gambits. 
characters can use.
Yes, that's right, weapons and armor. You cannot use a certain weapon unless you
have a "license" to do so. The license system is fun, but you have to admit that
at times it does seem rather daunting that you can't use a weapon until you have
a license for it. You also can't help but admit that it isn't as deep as
previous Final Fantasy ability learning systems like the Sphere Grid in Final
Fantasy X, or the Materia system in Final Fantasy VII. 
that each town has so many unique looking characters
on screen at once is an impressive feat. The game also sounds lovely. Some tunes
fans will recognize from other Final Fantasy games, but for the most part the
music is its own and it sounds really good. The voice acting is also fantastic,
albeit, weak in some spots, but overall the voices are grand.
