Throughout its celebrated history, the Final Fantasy series has had more than its fair share of epic moments, from heroic sacrifices and tearjerking tragedies to triumphant victories and dramatic revelations.
The franchise’s serious moments are frequently interspersed with more light-hearted ones, which range from the enjoyable to the downright ridiculous. Many of these moments are hilarious (such as anything involving talking octopus Ultros in Final Fantasy VI), but others are nothing short of cringeworthy and difficult to watch without facepalming.
Looking back at Final Fantasy 6 on its 30th anniversary provides a snapshot of one of gaming's most important franchises at a pivotal turning point.
Gary Green said: It’s interesting to revisit the roots of your favorite franchises to see first-hand what’s changed and what’s stuck around all these years, though perhaps ‘visit’ would be more accurate than ‘revisit’ since apparently, Europe wasn’t worthy of the original six Final Fantasy games the first time around. By the time we started getting ports of these iconic games, we’d already been through the PSOne JRPG golden age. So we’d already seen the best of what Final Fantasy had to offer, while these predecessors looked outdated, unrefined, and (dare I say it) ugly. We aren’t bitter about the delayed releases, honest…
I'd love to but square said fk you to the ps fanbase that wanted these physically. Meanwhile switch got a physical release.

I always go Yuna, Aerith, Rikku, Rinoa, and for some reason Vanilla, Ashe, Cindy, Lunafreya, Quistis
I don't really see how the Orphanage is cringe worthy or lazy. It's said in the game that GF's cause memory loss because of the power it holds. The more GF's the more things you forget. So it made sense when you saw that scene that they obviously forgot about each other, they still remembered they were at the Orphanage they just forgot who was there and what they did.
As for the Real Emotion in Final Fantasy X-2 I thought it was great, the song was really catchy aswell and fit in with the theme of the game. Even the 1000 words song sung by the same singer, Jade Villalon. Again I don't see how it's cringe worthy.
If you take something like Final Fantasy 13 or something like Blue Dragon they are games which are filled to the brim with cringe worthy moments.
That last point was terrible. In context the laughing scene in ff10 mad perfect sense and wasn't weird at all.
I can't agree with most of these.
All of FF13 :)
