Final Fantasy IV, the fourth entry in the face-meltingly popular Final Fantasy game series and the first 16-bit game in the series, released in 1991 for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System.The main character of this tale is Cecil, a Dark Knight in the service of the King of Baron. After questioning the recent warmongering of his king, he is demoted to errand boy and sent to a village called Mist in order to deliver a package and slay a dragon menacing its borders. He is joined by his best friend and rival, a Dragoon named Kain. Once they reach the village, they discover that nothing is quite what they have been told: they have been used as disposable pawns in Baron's ongoing crusade to capture the Power Crystals that exist around the world. Cecil vows to stop the evil intentions of Baron, but first he must atone for the sins that he committed in its service and overcome his own inner darkness.Since the second and third Final Fantasy games hadn't been released in North America when Final Fantasy IV came out, the original North American release of FFIV was titled Final Fantasy II. The North American FFII was easier than the Japanese version; before the North American version was released, it spawned another Japanese version, "Final Fantasy IV Easytype", whose difficulty level was scaled down even more (thus, the North American version was less difficult than the original Japanese version, but significantly harder than Easytype). The North American Final Fantasy II also suffered from severe censorship and bizarre wording choices even outside the context of censorship ("You spoony bard!", anyone?). Many of the fan favorite lines were kept in the re-released versions.Received a sequel initially released for cellphones called The After Years (also available on WiiWare, PlayStation Portable and received a 3D remake for PC and iOS/Android), which stars the old cast and some of their children teaming up again to prevent the same catastrophe from happening again. It, along with Final Fantasy IV itself, was released on the PSP in March 2011 in Japan and April everywhere else. Also includes a midquel called Interlude to further connect the plots. Both games use new graphics and is the largest 2D graphical change to the original other than the cellphone version. This version is heavily based on the Game Boy Advance version, and the only thing taken from the Nintendo DS version is the translation of terms (e.g. Carnellian Signet rather than "Bomb Ring").Final Fantasy IV is the title that had the most impact on the direction the franchise went in, and it had an enormous influence on virtually every one of its descendants, not to mention on Japanese role-playing games in general. It's been remade/ported numerous times. In addition to being half of the Final Fantasy Chronicles compilation on the PlayStation, FFIV has been ported to the WonderSwan Color, GBA, cellphones, and was the second game (after Final Fantasy III, which didn't make it over beforehand) to be fully remade with 3D graphics on the Nintendo DS in 2007 (this version was ported to PC in 2014), which added voice acting for key scenes and a introductory Full Motion Video with brand new CGI renders, significant additions to the script which further detail the backstory of some characters, several gameplay changes, along other new content such as an Augment system, minigames, a New Game Plus feature, and new superbosses. A 2D remaster, created as a part of the Final Fantasy Pixel Remaster series and largely based on the previous GBA and PSP rereleases (excluding any new content those versions added), was released for Steam and mobile devices in September of 2021. 2023 saw the Pixel Remaster version brought over to the Nintendo Switch and PlayStation 4.

Elemental Absorption
 Final Fantasy IV (Video Game) / int_10490c51
comment
Elemental Absorption: A series staple. Generally, attacking a fire or ice monster with weapons or spells of the same element as them is a bad idea. Rubicante exploits this. He normally absorbs fire and is weak to ice/water, but when he uses his cloak, he absorbs all elemental damage.note In the 3D versions, the cloak only absorbs ice and water damage. In the boss fight with Golbez in the Dwarven Castle, he uses an ability called Barrier Shift that makes him vulnerable to one random element, but absorbs all others. There is an accessory called the Cursed Ring that seems useless because it lowers all of a character's stats. However, it has a hidden attribute that turns armor with elemental resistance into elemental absorption, which can be nearly a Game-Breaker in certain areas.

The Millstone: FUSOYA in the DS version. Not only is he merely The Load (e.g. trying to keep him alive, since he's a horrifically slow caster and Squishy Wizard, which usually means he gets one-shotted before he can cast, will pretty much ensure Game Over), but see the bad advice under Luck-Based Mission above. Following his advice there is a nearly instant Game Over.

The Artifact
 Final Fantasy IV (Video Game) / int_13d7a65e
comment
The Artifact: As of the Pixel Remaster, several things are no longer necessary due to quality-of-life changes. The spell Sight and the item Gnomish Bread both zoom out the map to help you see more of where you're going. In the Pixel Remaster, these are irrelevant due to the presence of the in-game map. The Fat Chocobo isn't necessary in the Pixel Remaster, because there's now no limit on inventory space. You can still summon him and store items if you want to, but there's no need to do so anymore.

Dummied Out
 Final Fantasy IV (Video Game) / int_1653843c
comment
Subverted in the original SNES version when Palom and Porom turn themselves to stone. You can interact with them and the game will offer to let you use an inventory item (which you do in other places to advance the plot or unlock things, and which seems to indicate that there's an item you can use to change the situation)... but there's no way to save them. In the original Japanese version you could get a special failure message (well, a repeat of the failure message when Tellah tried to restore them) by trying to use a Golden Needle on them, but the item was Dummied Out in the version that got translated, and even in the original it didn't actually accomplish anything.

Peninsula of Power Leveling
 Final Fantasy IV (Video Game) / int_16972b3c
comment
Peninsula of Power Leveling: It's possible to fight enemies from around Mythril and Troia when first arriving at Mysidia by heading north of Mount Ordeals and around the mountains on the southwest side and heading to the very northern tip of the continent. Interestingly, the path can only be traversed on foot, not on a chocobo. Battles there give Cecil 2,000-3,000 per victory. There's also one that is a three-step bit of land in the Underground, which spawns nothing but Eggs. These eggs range in value from moths to Yellow Dragons. And if you got Sirens from a few places, you can spawn multiple Yellow Dragon eggs and get the drop on them for full EXP. This gets especially prominent in a lot of randomizer hacks for the game in the 21st century, but even in the original releases it can still be useful (as you have access to it as soon as you return to the Underworld).

Cool Old Guy: Cid is never explicitly stated to be old, but he's at least older than Cecil, and he's still the master engineer. It's his work that created Baron's fleet of airships, and he still works on them even despite his advanced age, and later his injuries. Tellah is stated to be an old sage that Palom and Porom have heard of as having incredible amounts of power. He makes good on it by being a valuable ally to Cecil, and even helping stop Golbez's plans for Rosa.

 Final Fantasy IV (Video Game) / int_17975d1b
comment
Unstable Equilibrium: Cecil is powerful enough to plow through all but the rarest Random Encounters on his own for a good hour into the game. In fact, it really feels more like an Escort Mission when he's paired up with Rydia and Edward, at least at first. The only time you might be in danger, when Undead show up, you get Tellah, who is even more powerful than Cecil and comes with the Fire and Cura spells. In the DS remake he's more balanced with the early encounters.

Graceful Loser: Rubicante praises our heroes and bids them farewell upon defeating him, in stark contrast to his fellow Archfiends, which try to take the heroes with them. On the GBA and PSP ports, Zeromus EG takes his defeat with grace and says he is going to go back to sleep, despite the fact that he is (supposedly) a part of Zeromus' spirit.

Reformed, but Rejected
 Final Fantasy IV (Video Game) / int_1c5599e4
comment
Reformed, but Rejected: Cecil attacking the city of Mysidia to take the crystal under orders from the King of Baron, an act Cecil feels immense guilt for doing. A few hours into the game later, Cecil washes onto the shores of Mysidia and approaches the city to ask for help. The people of Mysidia all promptly call him out for attacking them at the start of the game and make it clear he is not welcome in the city, and the only reason he is allowed in is because the city's Elder is willing to listen and give Cecil a chance for redemption. Shortly after, Cecil braves Mt. Ordeals and goes from a Dark Knight to a Paladin to complete his redemption. His traveling companions Palom and Porom then reveal the real reason they joined for this trip; the village Elder wanted them to spy on Cecil to make sure he did actually try to redeem himself. Just because you feel immense guilt and want to redeem yourself doesn't mean your victims will agree or listen, and those who do have every right to be doubtful of you for doing so. Even after Cecil becomes a paladin, there's still a few people in Mysidia who admit they can't bring themselves to forgive what Cecil did, a conclusion that Cecil ultimately accepts.

Welcome Back, Traitor
 Final Fantasy IV (Video Game) / int_1c7cc36d
comment
Welcome Back, Traitor: Kain succumbs to Golbez's brainwashing and turns against Cecil twice throughout the story, but is quickly welcomed back into the party once it seems he has snapped out of it. The second time he comes back, Edge actually defies the trope by calling him out on it, asking Kain what he expects them to do if he gets brainwashed again. Kain's response is succinct: Kill him. In the DS version, he almost succumbs a third time, during the final dungeon, and only barely manages to hang on when Zemus goes too far and tries to make him think that killing Rosa would be a good idea, if his thought bubbles are any indication.

No Sympathy: Cecil and Rydia towards Edward; they immediately lay into him for being temporarily catatonic over the deaths of all his loved ones. Granted, Rydia is a kid and she immediately went after the two men who killed everyone she ever loved, but grown man Cecil has a total want of empathy for Edward. It's not with the argument that Edward needs to be strong for his people, either; Cecil is only interested in having Edward help him and Rosa.

Never knew that underwear goes under your clothes or just simply does not like to wear a dress or skirt? You be the judge. In Final Fantasy IV: The After Years, she switches to a simpler white dress. Rydia,◊ on the other hand... The fiend Barbariccia also fits the wardrobe.

Royals Who Actually Do Something: Two of your party members in the original game (Edward and Edge) are princes, and two others were adopted by the King of Baron (Cecil and Kain).

Odin is the spirit of the former king of Baron, and Bahamut is titled the god of monsters.

Discard and Draw: Cecil ditches the power of the Dark Knight to become a Paladin instead. He loses the ability to case Darkness, instead gaining the Cover ability and some minor White Magic spells. Rydia can always summon eidolons, but she eventually loses the ability to cast White Magic. Instead, she gains a focus just on Black Magic, learning much more powerful spells after going to a place where time flows much differently.

Ominous Latin Chanting: The Pixel Remaster's improved soundtrack has a bit of women chanting ominously in the ruins of Damcyan and Eblan Castles.

Non-Standard Skill Learning: Because of trauma, Rydia cannot use the spell Fire, until Rosa convinces her later in a storyline event. Hilariously enough, she can still learn Firaga given you do enough Level Grinding. Several of Rydia's summons can only be obtained from getting an item that Randomly Drops from certain types of enemies. Pray that the Random Number God is in a good mood.

Chekhov's Boomerang: When Cecil becomes a Paladin, he receives the Sword of Legend/Mythgraven Sword. You find a number of more powerful swords as you progress through the game, but if you can acquire the Adamant ore and take it to a certain blacksmith, he'll temper the sword and make it into the more powerful Excalibur, one of the most powerful swords he can wield.

So Long, and Thanks for All the Gear: A frequent occurrence on one's first playthrough, thanks to all the party members that leave your party or (apparently) meet their demise without much advance warning. Averted in the Pixel Remaster: any character leaving your party in any manner will leave behind all their equipment in the inventory, and that goes for Dark Knight Cecil's class change to Paladin.

Mythology Gag
 Final Fantasy IV (Video Game) / int_26ac510e
comment
Mythology Gag: The idea of traveling to a remote and high location to prove oneself worthy of a class change, including a long trip to and from the location itself with a lack of transport involved, is lifted almost wholesale from Final Fantasy, besides the wrinkle of Scarmiglione involved and shifting from a tower to a mountain. The original English release of the first game even called it the "Castle of Ordeals", though later versions would retroactively change it to "Citadel of Trials". Kain's father's name is Richard, which is similar to Ricard Highwind from Final Fantasy II (and in fact, his name is Richard in Japan - his name is shortened overseas due to space limitations). And in remakes, FFII returns the favor, by having Ricard adopt a boy named Kain. A sign in Baron's inn in the DS version references the awkwardly-scrolling and -phrased text "l i t t l e m o n e y" in the original version of Final Fantasy Tactics.

Awesome, but Impractical
 Final Fantasy IV (Video Game) / int_2bdae2ae
comment
Awesome, but Impractical: The Meteor spell does high damage and hits everything on the field. It's blunted by a very long casting time, four times longer than the next longest. It costs 99 MP, meaning Tellah will never be able to use it despite knowing the spell since his MP caps at 90, and by the time Rydia levels up enough to learn it, she can do just as much damage with Flare or Bahamut, which cast faster and cost less MP. The DS version makes it more useful by making it compatible with the Dualcast augment, unlike Bahamut, introducing the Limit Break augment to deal more than 9999 damage, and nerfing Flare's damage output. DS introduced Ultima, which is obtained by Twincast with Cecil and Rosa. This is completely unnecessary unless one of said casters has Limit Break as Meteor itself is more than enough to hit the Damage cap and using Ultima will cost 99 MP of both Cecil and Rosa and has longer casting time.

Glass Cannon
 Final Fantasy IV (Video Game) / int_2f253c94
comment
Glass Cannon: Rydia starts out at 30 HP. At level 99, her HP barely passes the 5,000 mark. Even then, she's got one of the lowest Defense stats out of the playable characters, meaning she'll go down pretty fast. On the other hand, her Summon magic and black magic have her deal an excessive amount of pain right back. Edge. While he has more health and is physically powerful, his durability is the same as Rydia's. Palom is much like Rydia, except that he specializes in Black Magic. In fact, if you want to use him for the final battle in the GBA and PSP ports of the game, he knows the super-powerful Meteor and Flare spells. In the GBA-based remakes, Edward also counts, being the glassiest cannon of them all. His statistics aren't absurdly overwhelming (he does get nice Speed), he gets useful commands, but for some reason his endgame harps are utterly amazing weapons that in many ways outclass all others. He attacks like an archer, except more accurately without the ammunition limit, and his harps are strong against some particularly pernicious enemy types (or in one case, all enemy types, period). Damage-wise, he can't do anything but a basic attack, but his basic attack effectively becomes a faster version of a powerful single-target spell that can't be blocked by Reflect and costs no MP, all because of the improbable superiority of his weapons.

Theme Music Power-Up: An utterly awesome example occurs after Zeromus appears and floors everyone; the game cuts to the Tower of Prayer, where Palom urges the Elder of Mysidia to do something.

Game-Breaking Bug
 Final Fantasy IV (Video Game) / int_33ca811a
comment
Game-Breaking Bug: Sometimes called the Die Hard bug, the game remembers the last 63 flights of stairs you have accessed in a single area. The 64th stairway will reset the counter to 0, making the game think you are on the world map. Now, if you try to go downstairs again you'll enter the Minus World and can drop 44 more floors before the game either warps you to a random room in the game (like right in front of the final boss) or deletes your game saves. Speed runs of the NES Die Hard game involve a lot of time spent running up and down a single staircase. The Medusa Sword in the SNES game is extremely glitchy. Most times than not, if it procs on the enemy, it may cause the game to softlock. note This is when the game still runs, but it no longer accepts button inputs, forcing the player to reset the game.

In the Japan-only mobile phone version, beating a character's trial in the Lunar Ruins three times nets you an exclusive piece of headgear for that character, usually with multiple status defenses. But since you've already beaten the game and most of the Bonus Dungeon, it's unlikely they'll make a difference, even against Zeromus EG.

Rule of Cool: Some of the translation changes in the DS version were done solely because new translator Tom Slattery loved the original game and wanted to give the script more flair. He refers to the summoned monsters as Eidolons because he wanted them to have a proper name like the rest of the series post-VI, and since XII had just reused Esper from VI, he decided to reuse Eidolon from IX (and later also used it on XIII). Also, "The Feymarch" was a word he just made up.

Death is Cheap: A number of party members have emotional death scenes. In all cases but one, it doesn't take; they all pop up at the same time to reveal that they're just fine. Justified in the case of the twins, who were only turned to stone; the fact that they couldn't be restored by conventional means didn't preclude there being a way, providing someone was clever enough to find it, which someone was.

Late in the game, it's revealed that Golbez is under the control of Zemus, a wizard who came from the moon.

Unintentionally Unwinnable: By having the Avenger Sword equipped on Cecil before the final boss fight, you have softlocked the game because only he can use the Crystal and you can't change his weapon during battle because of its auto-Berserk status.

Karl Marx Hates Your Guts
 Final Fantasy IV (Video Game) / int_3af6f8ba
comment
Karl Marx Hates Your Guts: Ethers and Elixirs sell for 10,000 gil and 100,000 gil, respectively. So you'd think that any random Ether or Elixir you find in pots or treasure chests would be an easy 5,000 or 50,000 gil if sold at a store, right? Nope, apparently their resale value is only 1 gil. Some merchants must be making a killing on margins like those. The rare drop summons are powerful spells that are remarkably affordable to cast, and well worth teaching to Rydia... or you could sell them for 50 gil each. It makes sense, though — Rydia is Last of Her Kind, so she's literally the only person in the world who could even use them.

Climax Boss: All the Archfiends. Scarmiglione is fought to open the way to the top of Mt. Ordeals where Cecil is to become a Paladin, Cagnazzo is fought when Cecil confronts the King of Baron and discovers it's Cagnazzo, Barbariccia is fought as Kain and Rosa rejoin and Golbez retreats from his tower, and Rubicante is fought atop the Tower of Babil as the party tries to retrieve the Crystals. Then comes one of the potentially longest fights in the game when all four reappear in the Giant of Babil guarding the core.

Guest-Star Party Member: In all versions, Tellah and Fusoya only join for a few dungeons before leaving. Edward, Yang, Porom, Palom, and Cid count as well in the original and DS versions, and in the Pixel Remaster. The PSP and GBA versions effectively make them into permanent characters because the player gains the ability to freely put them in their party for the final dungeon and post-game.

comment
A Taste of Power: For assisting in an early-game battle in Fabul, Cecil is given the Deathbringer sword, an incredibly powerful weapon that gives large bonuses to all stats and which frequently kills any non-undead enemy it hits. Unfortunately, you only really get to use it on the trip to Mount Ordeals; Mount Ordeals itself is crawling with undead, and afterwards Cecil becomes a Paladin, permanently losing the ability to equip it. You won't get comparable weapons until far later in the game. Right after Tellah gets access to every spell in the game, including powerful -ga spells that you won't see for some time on other members of the party without extensive grinding. However you won't use them for long and with his limited MP pool they'll be mostly used in emergencies only unless one wants to spend a lot of Ethers.

Cecil feels incredibly guilty about stealing the crystals for the king of Baron. After his raid on Mysidia, Cecil vows to never do it again, even if ordered. But when Cecil is tricked into performing yet another atrocity, he says Screw the Rules, I'm Doing What's Right! and rebels. Part of this redemption even involves going back to Mysidia to atone for what he's done with the people he's personally wronged.

Stupid Sacrifice: Cid's apparent death: He jumps out of an airship while holding a bomb, saying he has to ensure it lands on the correct spot. However, as he couldn't control the speed of his descent, carrying it wouldn't have altered anything. Though he winds up surviving, it comes off as a transparent method to bump him from the party in favor of Edge. Palom and Porom sacrifice themselves by turning into statues to prevent the castle walls from crushing the party. However, not only does one of them know Teleport, but also Fire spells, which could be used to burn the hallway's wooden doors.

Tagalong Kid: At the start of the game, a young girl named Rydia is forced to tag along with Cecil and Kain after they accidentally destroy her village. Averted when she joins the party later in the game after spending some time in the Feymarch, as the temporal displacement from the Eidolons' homeworld caused her to age faster, so by the time she reappears she is a young adult. Inverted with Palom and Porom. They may be younger than Cecil, but they are the ones leading the black knight to his next destination.

White Hair, Black Heart
 Final Fantasy IV (Video Game) / int_4a0e2f8d
comment
White Hair, Black Heart: Golbez has an odd relationship with this trope — in the original version, there was no way to know for sure if he fit the archetype, since he never took his helm off. Since he's Cecil's brother, though, it was a reasonable assumption. The DS version gave him brown hair in flashbacks, but on the other hand, we only ever see Golbez's face in flashbacks from when he was a child, so that could have changed in the intervening years. The After Years confirms this impression, as Golbez appears without his armor in that game, and definitely has white hair. Of course, by then he too has reformed, and his role throughout the entirety of The After Years is decidedly non-villainous.

Compilation Rerelease: The game was part of no less than five of them: Final Fantasy Chronicles for the PS1 ships this game with Chrono Trigger. Also for the PS1, Final Fantasy Collection ships the game with Final Fantasy V and VI. Still for the PS1, the European version of Final Fantasy Anthology contains both IV and V (The North American version has V and VI instead). It marks the first time both games are released in that region. Final Fantasy IV: The Complete Collection for the PSP brings together the original game, The After Years, and an Interquel "mini"-game called Final Fantasy IV: Interlude. The Japan-exclusive Final Fantasy 25th Anniversary Ultimate Box contains (among other goodies) all the first thirteen main games for the PS1, PSP, PS2 and PS3, all in one box.

Tellah's cutscene use of Meteor exceeds his maximum MP (90) by 9. Moments before, he casts four spells that add up to 110 MP, then casts a spell that costs 99 MP, making a total of 209 MP used from a maximum of 90. This is because Tellah's desire for vengeance caused him to Cast from Hit Points, and Tellah dies shortly after the fight with Golbez is over.

The Empire: Baron sort of becomes one early in the game. It does attack and ruin various nations to steal their Crystals, but it doesn't expand its borders.

The Walls Are Closing In
 Final Fantasy IV (Video Game) / int_5581b443
comment
The Walls Are Closing In: One bad guy traps the heroes in one of these during a cutscene as they try to escape his lair after taking him out. Palom and Porom, the two cute kid mages, sacrifice themselves to save the others by turning themselves to stone and stopping the walls. One of the bosses is the Demon Wall, which slowly advances toward the party. Once it gets close enough, it will use the Crush attack to instantly knock the heroes out.

Bragging Rights Reward
 Final Fantasy IV (Video Game) / int_55e5b37c
comment
Bragging Rights Reward: According to the Final Fatasy Ultimania Archive, stealing Dark Matter from Zeromus is so unlikely that doing so is cause for celebration. You might as well, since that's all it's good for... in the 2D ports, anyway. In the 3D ports, it's vital to fight against the Proto-Babil, making it a subversion there. The 2D remakes feature the Hero's Shield, the strongest shield in the game, which is earned by defeating the Brachioraidos - at which point there's nothing left to do but traverse the rest of the Lunar Ruins and fight Zeromus EG. Even then, it's arguable that the Brachioraidos is a harder fight than Zeromus EG anyway. Speaking of Zeromus EG, the only thing granted upon its defeat is its bestiary entry. In the Japan-only mobile phone version, beating a character's trial in the Lunar Ruins three times nets you an exclusive piece of headgear for that character, usually with multiple status defenses. But since you've already beaten the game and most of the Bonus Dungeon, it's unlikely they'll make a difference, even against Zeromus EG.

Fantasy Counterpart Culture: Fabul for Imperial China. Their monks practice rigid disciplines, their king is a former warlord, and Yang (the party member from Fabul) has a design that is heavily inspired by China. Eblan for Japan. It's a place with ninja warriors, and it's the only such place they're found in the game.

Omniscient Morality License: When Leviathan first shows up, he capsizes your party's ship, abducts your summoner, and derails your mission to stop The Empire, thus placing the fate of the world in (further) jeopardy. The aftermath leaves one party member an amnesiac pawn of said empire, another bedridden until the very end of the game, the hero stranded alone on a continent that hates him, and all the ship's crew (since they're never seen or mentioned again) presumably dead. Everything works out uncannily in the end, despite (or even because of) debilitating injuries to plot-important characters. Nobody ever brings up the whole murderous sea monster thing.

Her Aim ability gives her increased attack power and accuracy with a bow; while it's not near enough to match the damage output of, say, Cecil or Kain, it's still better than your average White Magician Girl. And that doesn't even take Holy into consideration.

Gameplay and Story Segregation
 Final Fantasy IV (Video Game) / int_6320eced
comment
Gameplay and Story Segregation: Rydia doesn't learn Fire until a plot event, because she gained a phobia of fire when Cecil burned down her village. However, with excessive Level Grinding, it's possible to have her learn Firaga before said plot event occurs. When you get to Damcyan Castle, you find it under attack and filled with injured and dying people. Yet, despite having two white mages in your party and most likely dozens of potions and phoenix downs in your inventory, you can't do a thing to help any of them. This becomes utterly jarring when an important NPC passes away in your healer's arms without him even attempting to heal her, and despite there being two magical healing pots capable of fully restoring all your health with a single touch in the very same room. Titan is only able to alter the World Map upon its first appearance. After falling for the pitfall trap in the Tower of Babil, you'd think a Warp spell would've taken the party back up a floor. Yet nobody even suggests the idea. The Tower of Babil appears on the Overworld map surrounded by a large black hole. You'd think it'd be possible to fly an airship through, much like the hole that's sometimes open near Agart, but you'd be wrong.

 Final Fantasy IV (Video Game) / int_635e2151
comment
Spoiled by the Manual: The SNES version of the game had this in the equipment section of the manual, as it listed a few sample pieces of equipment as well as the class of who could use it. Thus, it was pretty obvious that the various Disc One Final Dungeons were not the end, because a "ninja" or a "Lunarian" hadn't appeared yet. For that matter, the twist that there's an intelligent race from the moon is spoiled by the fact that "Lunarian" was the name of a class listed in the manual (though that plot point is minor compared to the one about just who is descended from it).

New Game Plus: In the DS version, after defeating the final boss, you can play the game again, inheriting all those augments you gave to your characters. And if you gave the previous game augments to characters that weren't going to be in your final party, you will be rewarded with these characters' abilities as augments. You can play New Game Plus only two times in a row though.

Spirit Advisor: Cecil hears a voice calling him "my son" once he finally reaches the top of Mount Ordeals and becomes a paladin. This voice tells Cecil to reject the darkness and turn towards the light. The "my son" part wasn't an exaggeration or a metaphor, either; it was the voice of Cecil's father, Klu'ya. Anna becomes this for Edward after her death. Edward had been wallowing in misery for a while after her death. But when Edward is attacked one night by a monster, she appears and tells him to find his own strength, which inspires him to keep going.

comment
Permanently Missable Content: Cecil's Dark equipment is permanently lost if it's not unequipped during his class change. Averted in the Pixel Remaster where weapons and armor that were equipped on a party member when said member leaves the team are immediately taken off and end up in the inventory, and Dark Knight Cecil and his class change are no exception to this. Treasures in The Tower of Zot, the Tower of Babil and the Giant of Babil are lost forever once the dungeons become inaccessible. One odd case involves a dungeon that you otherwise can return to at any point. The Kitchen Knife, the best throwing weapon in the game, can only be obtained if you complete the sidequest that involves using the frying pan on Yang before recruiting FuSoYa. While everything else involving the Sylph Cave (including the very useful Sylph summon) can be acquired regardless of when the cave is entered, recruiting FuSoYa triggers an event flag that makes it impossible to use the frying pan on Yang as he's awake, aware, and praying in the Tower of Prayers with other allies after that point, and his wife will thus never trade it for the knife. The tradeoff is that a player that waits until after FuSoYa is recruited to enter the Sylph Cave only needs to go through it once to get the Sylph summon, while the frying pan sidequest requires that a player traverse the cave twice.

Author Appeal: This game contains more or less all of Amano's favorite art trends. Cecil is the typical pale willowy man with frizzy white hair, blue lips, and very pale skin. He also has spiked armor and a cape, which Amano loves. Rosa and Rydia meanwhile are clad in catsuits, and as for capes, it's probably more efficient to list the main characters who do not wear a cape (Cid, Kain, Yang, and arguably Fusoya, who wears a robe).

The Power of Love: Several moments, such as Edward defeating the Sahagin and Kain defeating Zemus's last attempt at mind control come from their love for a certain person. In addition, giving Twincast to Cecil and Rosa in the DS version yields Ultima, the strongest attack in the entire game bar none.

Unstoppable Rage: After Edge is forced to fight his mutated parents, Rubicante tells him that emotions hold humans back. To prove the demon wrong, Edge unleashes his full rage, unlocking two of his most powerful Ninja Arts, Flood and Blitz. The death of Tellah's daughter fuels his rage for the rest of the game. He first lashes out against Edward, whom he blames for not protecting Anna. Much later, he has a second outburst when he confronts Golbez, which culminates in him trying to kill the villain with the Meteor spell, knowing full well that casting such attack would lead to his own death as well.

Meaningful Name: The four Elemental Fiends are all named after demons in Dante's The Divine Comedy - Scarmiglione, Cagnazzo, Barbariccia, and Rubicante. The Tower of Babil and Kain are names that should ring a bell for anyone at least mildly familiar with The Bible. Kain even gets Abel's Lance in the GBA remake to drive the point home.

Guide Dang It!
 Final Fantasy IV (Video Game) / int_6ec989d8
comment
Guide Dang It!: The DS port never tells you that A) Augment distribution is used to unlock other augments from characters who leave the party and B) Augments will eventually affect the stat growths of the characters who have them. You'd need a guide anyway to put those growths to proper use, because there's no way guesswork alone would let you figure out how to use them to max the stats of your final party. To get Cecil's Infinity +1 Sword, you have to cross an invisible bridge to reach the boss you have to fight to obtain it. There are precious few invisible pathways in the game, and none of them are in dungeons. If you don't know how to reach it, it can be quite frustrating, especially since the sword is fully visible on a normal pathway. The final boss has an attack called Big Bang that can easily do 2,000 damage that he telegraphs by shaking first. What the game doesn't tell you is that hitting him with any kind of magic attack between the shaking and the Big Bang will significantly reduce its damage.

Making a Splash: In the 2D editions of the game, contrary to what the descriptions in certain spells suggests, water does not exist as an element. Ninjustsu Spell Flood is Ice-Elemental, while the rest of the seemingly water spells are all Non-Elemental. This is fixed in the 3D editions, where all the water-sounding spells are Water-Elemental.

comment
Idiot Ball: When the party defeats Golbez in the 3D remake, they walk away, leaving him right next to the crystal he's trying to steal. Cue Not Quite Dead followed by Villain Teleportation. It's even worse in the original release, where they actually stay there and just stand and watch Golbez turn into a weird arm thing and steal the crystal right before their eyes. In the beginning of the game, Cecil thinks he's just going on a simple delivery run with Kain to get back into the King of Baron's good graces. In certain translations, he's specifically delivering an item called the Bomb Ring, which pretty much does exactly what you think it would do by the first word of its name. His shock at the fires and explosions rage rings hollow in any version where this is the case. Avoided in others, where it's merely the generic Package or the Carnelian Signet (carnelian merely being a type of red stone).

Random Drop
 Final Fantasy IV (Video Game) / int_7367e5f7
comment
Random Drop: The Pink Tail is dropped by Flan Princesses. In the room where you can find those monsters (which is a very small room with only one uninteresting treasure), you have an 1/64 chance of encountering a formation of five of those things. Each of those things have a 5/98 rate of dropping ANY items at all, and a further 1/64 chance that the dropped item will be a Pink Tail. If you just run around that room, you have a 0.006% chance of getting a Pink Tail (or you'll on average get 1 Tail every 10056 battles). In most versions of the game, you can use a Siren, which guarantees the encounter with five Flan Princesses, increasing the odds to 0.3% per battle, or 1 tail every 251 battles on average. The Rainbow Pudding in the DS version, which is necessary for finishing the Namingway quest and earning all the augments, has a drop rate of 0.4%. You can only get it from the various Flans. And the Treasure Hunter augment only boosts this drop rate to 0.8%. The DS version also adds numerous other types of Tails necessary for getting the only equipment that can be carried into New Game +. They all have the same horrible drop rate as the Pink Tail. The hidden summons (Goblin, Mind Flayer, Cockatrice and Bomb) are randomly dropped and every bit as rare as the Rainbow Pudding. To add insult to injury, the Goblin summon is pretty much useless, despite being as rare as Mind Flayer (damage, sap, and paralyze), Cockatrice (Multitarget Petrification), and Bomb (Damage equal to Rydia's health, without harming her). Equipments ranging from mid-game destroying equipments like Rune Staves and Lilith Rods, and other ultimate equipments like Crystal Rings, extra Protect Rings, extra Ribbons, Dragon Whips, Glass Masks and so on are all randomly dropped and at least nearly as, if not just as rare as the Pink Tail, just that the monsters that drop them tend to be more common encounters.

The Faceless: The dwarves in this game only show their eyes and their magnificent beards. It's most noticeable on Luca, King Giott's daughter, who lacks the beard or anything that could obscure her face, and still only her eyes are visible (until the sequel, where she's older and finally reveals her face). This tradition, first appearing in the previous game, tends to persist in future appearances in the series.

Boss in Mook Clothing
 Final Fantasy IV (Video Game) / int_7b7965dd
comment
Boss in Mook Clothing: The Behemoths and Deathmasks in the Lunar Subterrane are immune in their own ways to magic offense (Behemoths have 254 magic defence, a single point from the cap; and Deathmasks cast Reflect on themselves as their opening move, which will be before you can go), both require significant strategy to defeat (Behemoths will only counterattack; Deathmasks cast reflect on the entire party so you can't heal), and both have buckets of HP. They even come in pairs in the lower floors of the Lunar Ruins, and the boss music plays when you encounter them. The Brachioraidos is a superboss in mook clothing. At first glance, it's just a fixed encounter, like many other floors in the Lunar Ruins. The only real clue is that you have an NPC warn you about it before you fight it, something no other floor has. Even then, with the way that other Lunar Ruins Non Player Characters behave, it's easy to dismiss it as exaggeration.

Too Awesome to Use
 Final Fantasy IV (Video Game) / int_7d561d58
comment
Too Awesome to Use: Many healing items, especially MP recovery potions, are rare and prohibitively expensive for most of the game. Tellah and Fusoya's advanced spells fall under this as well. Their limited MP, combined with the scarcity of MP recovery items, means that you'll likely be sticking to their mid-level spells most of the time. Ethers cost 10000 gil, to be exact, and (except on the Easytype version) are only available for buying very late in the game. However, when you reach the moon, you can steal ethers from a plethora of enemies, including the very common Black Flan. Remedies can be this too in the non-easytype versions, costing 5000 gil (which is 50 times what they cost in the easytype versions) and not being available to even buy until about a third of the way through the game.

Crutch Character: Tellah, whose physical stats actually lower as he levels up: he's an old man, and he's not getting any younger. His 90 MP, second-tier magic and possession of the Osmose spell (absorbs MP from enemies, so strategic use means Tellah will never run out of MP) is a godsend when you first get him. Even though he unlocks his third-tier spells later on, his 90MP cap is a crippling hindrance by that point and your other spellcasters will have overtaken him.

Vague Age
 Final Fantasy IV (Video Game) / int_7f080f98
comment
Vague Age: Way back in the SNES days, this was true, especially for the American version which didn't have any ages in the manual or whatnot. Because of the "normalized" sprites resulting in everyone being surprisingly similar in height, it was unclear how old a lot of characters were meant to be - and this didn't just extend to child-Rydia and the twins, though they get the worst of it. Everyone's age was up to interpretation, and oftentimes fanon was way off the mark from eventually-published ages for things like the DS version: Cecil, Kain and Rosa were actually really bad about this. Due to their pretty formal-looking sprites, the fact that they all have pretty high-ranking jobs (Cecil and Kain leading military units, and Rosa being a major figure within the Baron white mages), and the fact that Cecil and Rosa are basically engaged even at the start of the game, a lot of people had the three of them being pegged in at least their late twenties, if not thirties. Nope - Cecil and Kain are meant to be in their early twenties, and Rosa is nineteen. Those ages getting announced with the DS version surprised a lot of people. As noted, the "kids" tended to get this especially bad, in no small part due to their sprites not really being much shorter than everyone else, though other elements didn't help.Fun Fact! The art does try to get the idea across in the battle sprites that the kids are "shorter" by having their heads be lower on their sprites than the adults; if you look closely, the twins and Kid-Rydia have chins at least one pixel lower than everyone else. However, either due to technical limitations or just a desire to make use of all the space they had, the artists still had the sprites be as tall overall as the rest of the cast, by way of Rydia's famous '80s Hair and the twins just having huge noggins. This meant that overall, all the sprites were of equal height and thus age was a lot harder to determine at a glance. This◊ is a good illustration of the phenomenon in action. Rydia was "a cute child", but this could put her anywhere between 7 to 12, with a lot of people suspecting it might be on the older side due to having to take the sprites at face value. (The lower value turned out to be the correct age.) The twins got it much worse - their SNES sprites actually look subtly "older" than Rydia's, Palom's in particular, and Palom's Bart Simpson-esque wisecracking and Porom's practiced formality (along with the stated fact that they were students and the fact that they were trusted to be spies) had a lot of people thinking they had to be at least pre-teens, if not early teens. Nope again - Palom and Porom are five years old. They're just that precocious. Edge also threw a lot of people off - his hotheadedness, use of slang, flirty attitude toward the (then-teenagerized) Rydia (and to a lesser extent, his relationship with his parents and his reaction to their fate) made pretty much everyone assume he was 17-18. Nope again: he's actually one of the older cast members at 26! He's significantly older than Cecil, Kain or Rosa!

comment
Square's love affair with Star Wars may have become more blatant with Final Fantasy II, but this installment found other ways to pack its story full of homages. Cecil must overcome his dark side and become a Paladin if he hopes to defeat Golbez. Golbez is a giant in black armor turned to the Dark Side by the robed Big Bad. He turns out to be a blood relative of the hero's, and, outside the 3D remake, suffers a severed hand. Golbez also gets the Emperor's Force Lightning routine since the game's Big Bad doesn't get to do much. They didn't name the Enterprise's companion airship the Falcon for nothing. The Red Moon is not inherently evil. But acting as the Big Bad's giant space fortress with a weapon that can wreck entire worlds, it's definitely moonlighting as the Death Star.

Exactly What It Says on the Tin
 Final Fantasy IV (Video Game) / int_8409a385
comment
In the beginning of the game, Cecil thinks he's just going on a simple delivery run with Kain to get back into the King of Baron's good graces. In certain translations, he's specifically delivering an item called the Bomb Ring, which pretty much does exactly what you think it would do by the first word of its name. His shock at the fires and explosions rage rings hollow in any version where this is the case. Avoided in others, where it's merely the generic Package or the Carnelian Signet (carnelian merely being a type of red stone).

 Final Fantasy IV (Video Game) / int_84f4a870
comment
Puzzle Boss: The Dark Knight, right after Cecil's class change to a Paladin. The only ways to win are by doing absolutely nothing, or by casting cure on the Dark Knight. In the 3D remake, the actual way to win the Giant of Babil CPU battle is to kill off the Attack Node first, and leave the Defense Node alone, despite Fusoya's advice to the contrary, since the Attack Node's Laser Barrage is much more powerful than previous versions. Killing off both Nodes means the CPU will one-shot you with a One-Hit Kill. Leaving the Defense Node alive means it will pathetically heal the CPU, while the CPU does nothing except cast Reflect on itself. Asura does nothing but cast high-level healing spells on herself, and any hit made against her is countered by a very strong physical attack. The only way to defeat her is to cast Reflect on her so that her healing spells bounce back at your party. Bahamut, on the Moon, counts down to his Mega Flare attack, which is strong enough to cause a Total Party Kill. Kain can Jump to avoid it, and some versions allow Mega Flare to be Reflected.

There are two retroactive broken bridges that later appear at two places where the characters take drastic 1-way movements. If you attempt to jump down the waterfall in the Watery Cave a second time, Cecil will remark that the current is too strong, and you will not be allowed to jump. The second is in the Eblan Cave, where one of the Eblan guards blocks the final passage to the Tower of Babil (and an eventual dead-end at an airship dock). This is to prevent players from stranding themselves without an airship and rendering the game unwinnable.

"Blind Idiot" Translation: The SNES English script had many, many mistakes. The overall poor reception to the English translation actually got the original translators relieved of their duties, and what led to Ted Woolsey getting hired. He then began a trend of improving translation quality in the industry. In particular, during the scene where Cecil and the gang talk in private at Baron's inn, Cecil introduces Tellah as Edward's father. Tellah and Edward are not related, as the whole "spoony bard" incident makes no sense otherwise. The poor translation in the SNES translation makes the final boss, Zeromus, harder. "Magics became invalid" actually means that all statuses are erased on your part. Other translations afterward clarify what Black Hole's effect does.

Meteor-Summoning Attack: Meteor is the strongest normal spell available to the player, first used by Tallah in a cutscene to drive off Golbez at the cost of his own life. Palom and Rydia can both learn Meteor by levelling up and Fusoya knows it by default. Palom and Porom can twincast Comet, a weaker version of Meteor that calls down a hail of star-shaped magical projectiles. There's also stronger version called Double/Twin Meteor which is cast by Golbez and Fusoya to kill Zemus. The twins can also use it if they both have the Twin Stars equipped.

Luck-Based Mission
 Final Fantasy IV (Video Game) / int_98b1dc8f
comment
Luck-Based Mission: In the DS version, the battle versus the CPU. It pretty much boils down to how quickly the Attack Node begins to attack... its only attack, Laser Barrage, is guaranteed to two-shot your entire party (and it'll usually one-shot Edge and Fusoya). If you can off it before it fires the lasers twice, you have the battle in the bag... unless you kill off the Defense Node. Prepare for the carnage of Object 199 if you do. There is, however, a trick to this. See Puzzle Boss below. The fact that Fusoya's "instructions" were not redone and still describe the original battle better than the redone one doesn't help. In fact, if you do what Fusoya says, you're screwed.

Took a Level in Badass
 Final Fantasy IV (Video Game) / int_9bcd82c0
comment
Took a Level in Badass: Cecil. After he becomes a Paladin, he becomes significantly stronger in every stat, can wield much stronger equipment and can destroy anything that made you cry tears of frustration when he was a Dark Knight. The best part? This is when Paladin Cecil is level 1, compared to Dark Knight Cecil who's anywhere from 15-20. Rydia as a young kid only had access to basic White and Black Magic and the weak Chocobo summon. When she comes back in her adult form, she lost her healing spells, but gained ridiculously powerful offensive magic and can summon the elemental Eidolons. A Rydia with proper equipment can and will take down entire waves of enemies by herself if you can spare the MP costs of her skills.

Interface Spoiler: Subverted in the original SNES version when Palom and Porom turn themselves to stone. You can interact with them and the game will offer to let you use an inventory item (which you do in other places to advance the plot or unlock things, and which seems to indicate that there's an item you can use to change the situation)... but there's no way to save them. In the original Japanese version you could get a special failure message (well, a repeat of the failure message when Tellah tried to restore them) by trying to use a Golden Needle on them, but the item was Dummied Out in the version that got translated, and even in the original it didn't actually accomplish anything. After rescuing Rosa at the Tower of Zot, checking her spell list reveals she knows Teleport... and the game won't let you use it, hinting that there's an important story event about to happen. Sure enough, you're ambushed by Barbariccia, though hilariously, Rosa Teleports you out of the dungeon automatically in the post-fight cutscene.

Stay in the Kitchen: After all of his travels with the White Mage/Combat Medic keeping the party healthy and the Lady of Black Magic/Master of Summon Magic laying waste to all that stood in their way, Cecil suddenly decides the women are a liability and orders them off the Lunar Whale before The Very Definitely Final Dungeon. Thankfully, Rosa and Rydia are not amused and they stow away to the Moon with them anyway. Also seen earlier in the game during the attack on Fabul, when Rosa and Rydia are relegated to assisting the castle's healers while Cecil, Edward, and Yang fight. Though despite being sidelined/protected, Rosa still gets kidnapped anyway.

Foreshadowing: Multiple characters try to warn Tellah of the consequences of casting Meteor because he doesn't have the energy reserves he used to. Even in versions where Tellah can get his MP boosted to the point where he can actually use the spell, Tellah pelts Golbez with multiple high-level spells right beforehand anyway, so he is out of MP by the time he casts the last one.

The DS version has a merchant Hummingway (or counterpart) at the single Save Point in the Giant of Babil. They compensate for this by making the two boss battles harder. Unlike the SNES, PS, and GBA versions, the Archfiends use all their abilities from the first encounters in the rematch, and the CPU battle is murder.

One odd case involves a dungeon that you otherwise can return to at any point. The Kitchen Knife, the best throwing weapon in the game, can only be obtained if you complete the sidequest that involves using the frying pan on Yang before recruiting FuSoYa. While everything else involving the Sylph Cave (including the very useful Sylph summon) can be acquired regardless of when the cave is entered, recruiting FuSoYa triggers an event flag that makes it impossible to use the frying pan on Yang as he's awake, aware, and praying in the Tower of Prayers with other allies after that point, and his wife will thus never trade it for the knife. The tradeoff is that a player that waits until after FuSoYa is recruited to enter the Sylph Cave only needs to go through it once to get the Sylph summon, while the frying pan sidequest requires that a player traverse the cave twice.

Took a Shortcut: Namingway in the DS version travels all around the world, including up to the Moon, and always reaches his destinations much earlier than the party. Rydia comes back from the Feymarch by going through a cave infested with monsters and over seas of lava that even the airship can't cross at that point in the story. Rosa near the beginning of the game somehow gets through the monster-filled Mist Cave, past the burnt-out village of Mist, past the impassable mountains created by the earthquake, and still manages to reach Kaipo at about the same time Cecil and Rydia do, if not before.

Remakes of both II and IV reestablish the connection between the games in a different way, with the GBA version of II establishing that fellow Dragoon Ricard Highwind has a young protégée named Kain, and the DS version of IV acknowledging this connection by having Kain mention his father Ricard, who died fighting an evil empire. Notable is that Final Fantasy II and IV must take place a single generation after one another if these comments are to be interpreted as placing the games in the same continuity, which would mean the 200-year gap established in Settei Shiryou Hen is no longer canon.

They're scripted to immediately start spamming Bolt3/Thundaga once hit by a lightning-element attack, which can quickly overwhelm the unprepared player. However, the only thing they do if a lightning-element attack isn't used is use Scan/Libra on themselves. If the player doesn't have lightning-element weapons equipped (and at that stage of the game, the only one who might is Rydia, who can just defend the whole time), the player can just do normal attacks with impunity, treating it like a Piñata Enemy with mediocre rewards.

Always Check Behind the Chair
 Final Fantasy IV (Video Game) / int_b6d0d282
comment
Always Check Behind the Chair: Many areas have hidden goods or passageways, but Eblan Castle deserves special mention due to the sheer prevalence of this. In summary, there are: secret corridors on basically every floor; a Sutra hidden behind the throne; a pit that you have to edge your way across to reach a chest; and then, just to confuse you, a different pit that you'll only fall through if you try to cross it. That's not even getting into The Very Definitely Final Dungeon's obsession with paths under paths under paths, all obscured by the top-view.

Of course, they seem to have no problem using them on you when you are already so afflicted which changes you back.

Developer's Room: Hidden in the Lali-Ho Pub in the Dwarven Castle. Interesting in that it includes some of the developers as random encounters in the area. It was removed from the North American SNES version and restored in the PS1 and GBA release. The developer's room showed up again in the DS version in the same place, with a completely new set of author avatars and in-jokes, because it's a different team this time around. The Pixel Remaster has removed it, with a somber note on the wall where the staircase would normally be marking its passing.

Outside-the-Box Tactic
 Final Fantasy IV (Video Game) / int_c33c51b2
comment
Outside-the-Box Tactic: The Reflect spell is integral to defeating Asura, who heals herself twice, at the end every round, in addition to attacking your party. The catch? You have to cast Reflect on her. That way, when she attempts to heal herself, your party will be healed instead. Asura inflicts insane amounts of damage and recovers 2,500-3,300 HP per recovery spell, making her borderline impossible to defeat without this trick. The original SNES release has one for the fight against the Dark Elf. Ordinarily, you have to fight a few rounds of largely ineffective combat, ending with him doing a Total Party Kill and a story sequence. This results in Cecil getting up, but with his companions requiring revival. However, if everyone goes in wearing a piece of metal equipment, the game treats everyone as being paralyzed and "dead," and the sequence still happens, except with the party healthy and ready to fight. Removed in the remakes.

Eblan fills this niche, being a nation of Ninja. The (now dubiously canon) guidebook Settei Shiryou Hen, released alongside the SFC game in Japan, gives further history on Eblan which is ripped straight from the pages of Japan's own history, describing how the nation once consisted of multiple warrior factions and was deeply isolationist before being contacted by airships from Baron, analogous to Commodore Perry's Black Ships.

Fabul can be mistaken for this, sharing the Oriental flair in addition to the fact that the English SNES version changes the martial art practiced there to the decidedly Japanese karate. However, Fabul is intended to resemble the wuxia stereotype of Imperial China.

Cutscene Incompetence: While credit is due to Tellah for at least thinking of using Esuna on Palom and Porom after they turn themselves into stone, it proves ineffective for the only time in the game. (Some versions justify this via the twins becoming stone of their own volition) Even attempting to use golden needles or remedies after the fact won't cure the ailment.

Broken Bridge
 Final Fantasy IV (Video Game) / int_c5f23623
comment
Broken Bridge: Several, including mountain passes being blocked by fire or ice until you clear the right plot events or recruit the right party members. Also, an underground passage leading to your next objective remains sealed until you complete a certain task. There are two retroactive broken bridges that later appear at two places where the characters take drastic 1-way movements. If you attempt to jump down the waterfall in the Watery Cave a second time, Cecil will remark that the current is too strong, and you will not be allowed to jump. The second is in the Eblan Cave, where one of the Eblan guards blocks the final passage to the Tower of Babil (and an eventual dead-end at an airship dock). This is to prevent players from stranding themselves without an airship and rendering the game unwinnable.

With This Herring: Cecil and Kain are experienced soldiers, so they start at Level 10 with full equipment and will have no problem cleaving their way through normal enemies up to the first boss. Nonetheless, your starting supplies are a handful of gil and whatever items you find in the castle; it's implied that the King wasn't interested in the two surviving his mission, so of course he wouldn't give them much to help them.

Shout-Out
 Final Fantasy IV (Video Game) / int_c75df49a
comment
Shout-Out: First, look at Rubicante [1]◊. Then, look at this bad guy from Neo Human Casshern [2]. They have the same designer, after all. During the party's first fight with Rubicante, the fiend of fire states that "the frozen winds of hell's 9th circle" couldn't penetrate his cloak. Square's love affair with Star Wars may have become more blatant with Final Fantasy II, but this installment found other ways to pack its story full of homages. Cecil must overcome his dark side and become a Paladin if he hopes to defeat Golbez. Golbez is a giant in black armor turned to the Dark Side by the robed Big Bad. He turns out to be a blood relative of the hero's, and, outside the 3D remake, suffers a severed hand. Golbez also gets the Emperor's Force Lightning routine since the game's Big Bad doesn't get to do much. They didn't name the Enterprise's companion airship the Falcon for nothing. The Red Moon is not inherently evil. But acting as the Big Bad's giant space fortress with a weapon that can wreck entire worlds, it's definitely moonlighting as the Death Star. The Adventures of Baron Munchausen came out in Japan two years before the game titled simply Baron. If you can't tell where they got the name for the starting kingdom, consider the airship trip to the moon, the volcanic underworld full of burly tinkerers, and having your quest derailed by a giant sea monster. The real King Baron becomes this game's Odin. So like the Baron in his film's climax, he can slice through entire crowds on horseback. By the end of the game, Cecil becomes the literal inheritor to Baron. The GBA-Version-Cid gives us this line: "So how are my airships? I'll bet you and your goons wrecked them up something awful!" The "Pig" spell is a reference to Circe in The Odyssey. Two sections of Mount Ordeals, the 3rd and 7th Stations, are named after the namesake sections in the Stations of the Cross where Jesus Christ fell for the first and second time, respectively.

In addition, it is only through luck that it was Kain who ended up Brainwashed and Crazy and not Cecil. Golbez to Cecil: The Hero and The Antagonist, but also long-lost brothers. It was because of who their father was that Golbez ended up Brainwashed and Crazy, which means that it's only through luck that it was Golbez and not Cecil in the antagonist's role.

Funny Bruce Lee Noises: This is likely what the SNES translation was going for with the monks' "ACHOO!" battle cry. Mentioned in the Pixel Remaster, when a boy in Fabul's pub tries imitating Yang's Kiai (here called a "Hiyaaaaah!") with a "Watchooooooo!"

Schmuck Bait: Li'l Murderers scan themselves at the beginning of the battle to let the player know they are weak to Thunder spells. However, hitting them with said attacks powers them up, enabling them to fire powerful magic attacks against the party. An example occurs during a late-game boss: If you try casting Thunder-elemental spells on Ogopogo, thinking it'll be weak to it, like Leviathan was, will result in the party taking a Tornado counterattack.

Wonder Twin Powers: The Twincast ability. Palom and Porom have it natively, but you can use Augments in the DS version to put them on other characters, which can change the spell you might get. Giving it to Cecil and Rosa gives them the Ultima spell which, if the damage cap is raised, outdamages everything else in the game.

Hypocrite: In all versions but the DS remake, Cecil finds it difficult to accept and forgive his brother Golbez, despite the fact he had done some terrible things at the beginning of the game and is now The Hero despite it, and he has implicitly forgiven Kain for his actions already. In the DS version, however, while progressing through the final dungeon, Cecil's thoughts show him going through the process of realizing this, and makes his forgiveness and acceptance at the end seem much more natural.

Fabul can be mistaken for this, sharing the Oriental flair in addition to the fact that the English SNES version changes the martial art practiced there to the decidedly Japanese karate. However, Fabul is intended to resemble the wuxia stereotype of Imperial China.

Depending on the Artist: The designs of the entire cast vary greatly between sprites, artwork and renders. Look no further than The Hero — Cecil's SNES field sprites have him in blue as a Dark Knight and gold as a Paladin with purple hair, but in battle his Paladin armor is white and his hair is blue-purple, while it's white in his portrait. This is even carried over to re-released with refined character designs — in the PSP release Cecil's battle sprite has spiked white hair with a tiara-like headpiece covering it, but his portrait has flowing white hair with a headband under the hair.

Writers Cannot Do Math: The guidebook Settei Shiryou Hen, released alongside the SFC game in Japan, gives a lot of All There in the Manual information about the world of FFIVnote (much of which hasn't been acknowledged since in the sequel and various remakes of the game, making it dubiously canonical), including the population and area of each of the game's nations. All of these numbers seem unusually small, such as Fabul having a population of 300 people.

Arc Welding: The Japan-only guidebook Final Fantasy IV Settei Shiryou Hen attempts to do this between this game and Final Fantasy II, which is noteworthy as few games in the Final Fantasy series take place in the same continuity. According to Settei Shiryou Hen, the Dark Sword which Cecil can find and equip in Fabul was left there by fellow FFII Dark Knight Leonhardt, while FFIV's Mysidia was founded by FFII White Mage Minwu. This could, however, be a case of the series reusing character names and concepts in Broad Strokes, which is standard for Final Fantasy. According to the timeline established in Settei Shiryou Hen, II would have taken place around 200 years before the events of IV. Remakes of both II and IV reestablish the connection between the games in a different way, with the GBA version of II establishing that fellow Dragoon Ricard Highwind has a young protégée named Kain, and the DS version of IV acknowledging this connection by having Kain mention his father Ricard, who died fighting an evil empire. Notable is that Final Fantasy II and IV must take place a single generation after one another if these comments are to be interpreted as placing the games in the same continuity, which would mean the 200-year gap established in Settei Shiryou Hen is no longer canon.

Just Following Orders: Defied. At the start of the game, Cecil realizes that this is no excuse for the terrible things that he's done, such as slaughtering the people of Mysidia, even when they weren't fighting back. Cecil vows to never commit such atrocities again, even if ordered to. When Cecil is tricked into committing another one anyway, he takes responsibility for his actions, defects from Baron, and starts his path of redemption.

Global Ignorance: When Golbez (via mind-controlling Kain) gets the final crystal, King Giott notes that the only hope is contained in an old legend, and begins to recite the Mysidian legend. Cecil recognizes it and tells Giott about Mysidia, and Giott is amazed that Mysidia exists. To be fair to Giott, there was literally miles of crust acting as a barrier between the Underworld with Giott's kingdom and the overworld where Mysidia lies, and a crack opening travel between the two was a very recent development.

Updated Re-release

Updated Re-release: It's been released on the SNES (with two different versions in Japan), PlayStation, WonderSwan Color, Game Boy Advance, Nintendo DS, mobile phones, the Wii Virtual Console, and PSP in the form of the Complete Collection, with The After Years and an Interlude midquel chapter bridging the two parts together. All with upgraded aesthetics. The Pixel Remaster was released for Steam and Mobile in 2021, and for Switch and PlayStation 4 two years later. This was more of a "back to basics" re-release, drawing more directly from the original Super Famicom version, slightly updating the graphics and introducing some quality-of-life features. It did not include any of the extra content of the GBA, DS, or PSP versions.

Optional Boss: The GBA and PSP versions have "Lunar" versions of Rydia's summons, which are fought after the trials in the Lunar Ruins. Said dungeon also has an upgraded Zeromus, dubbed "Zeromus EG", waiting at the bottom - the defeat of which earns you nothing but the satisfaction that you did so. Finally, there's the Brachioraidos, who can occasionally be found in the lower floors of the Lunar Ruins. Slaying it earns you the Hero's Shield.

Helpful Mook: Of the Accidentally Assisting variety. The Li'l Murderer, found in the last dungeon, only casts Scan on itself unless you use the element it's weak against. If you fall for the trap, he "supercharges" and counterattacks with the -ga spell of the same element. Since it's still weak against said element, if you set your party up with Reflect beforehand, it'll keep hitting itself and counterattacking until it kills itself.

Gender Incompetence
 Final Fantasy IV (Video Game) / int_e5b76ab4
comment
Gender Incompetence: Early on in the game, it features a battle to try to protect a castle that focuses on fighting hordes of bad guys, which wouldn't be so hard except that just before the battle, you're robbed of all your most powerful spellcasters, seemingly just because they're women. The rest of the game isn't bad at recovering from this, however. More likely, though, that they were just moving the party members who knew white magic to the back lines in order to treat the wounded. (The fact that the women are all spellcasters, of course, stumbles into another stereotype.) The end of the game averts this. Cecil tells the female party members to stay behind while the men go off to the final dungeon on the moon. Upon landing on the moon, they realize the ladies simply hid on the ship. Based on how hard the last dungeon is, Cecil should thank his lucky stars. The scene is semi-replayed during Yang's chapter in the sequel; it's just about the only point in the chapter (after she joins you) where Ursula isn't either fighting alongside her father or searching for him.

No Endor Holocaust: The Tower of Zot, a huge flying structure that falls apart moments after you leave it, never crashes anywhere. The Tower of Babil is perfectly fine (and is totally structurally intact, according to the sequels) after the Giant of Babil seemingly walks out of it. Similarly, in the sequels, there are almost no changes to the world map (not even changes to local climates, tides, or sea lanes) after one of the planet's moons flies off into deep space, never to return.

Gameplay and Story Integration: You begin the game with Cecil and Kain, both trained knights in the service of the Baron kingdom. Both start at level 10 with some pretty good equipment. Rydia, the first other character who joins you, is a small child. She starts at level 1 with minimal equipment. Like other Final Fantasy games, battle spells follow most of the standard element patterns (fire, ice/water, lightning). Rydia learns ice and lightning magic on her own by gaining levels, but not fire. Her hometown was destroyed by a fire, and she hates fire as a result. She only finally unlocks fire magic when the group needs to proceed past a wall of ice to warn another town of an impending attack, and there are no other black magic users currently in the party. The fact that innocent people will die if they can't be warned in time allows her to overcome her psychological block and cast fire to melt the ice. Edward, who is established as a wimpy musician, not a talented fighter, and a bit of a coward, has the Hide command, which even happens automatically if his HP runs low. The game might even take this a bit too far; his frailty is such that he is outdone by a small child in terms of robustness. After Cecil becomes a paladin, his appearance appropriately changes. Also, he can no longer use any of the dark knight equipment. Cecil’s dark sword is useless against most of the denizens of Mt. Ordeals, hitting for only a single point of damage, basically backing up what the Elder has just warned you about. However, on the return journey, the newly-minted Paladin Cecil’s holy sword will utterly annihilate the monsters.

The Load
 Final Fantasy IV (Video Game) / int_e68b72
comment
The Load: Edward, in the original version of the game, is so wimpy he even has a "Hide" command. In later versions of the game, his abilities and available weapons are increased, so that he eventually becomes one of the most desired characters near endgame. Initially, Rydia can seem to be a liability as well, until you figure out that her rods can be used as battle items.

Time-Limit Boss: The Demon Wall. If it gets too close, it starts using the Crush attack, which is a One-Hit Kill. Odin slowly raises his sword, and when he's done charging, he'll use Zansetsuken on the whole party for a large amount of physical damage. Bahamut starts a countdown at the beginning of the battle. When the timer hits zero, he unleashes his Mega Flare attack, which deals massive damage to the entire party. Balnab/Barnabas becomes one if you defeat Dr. Lugae first.

Laser-Guided Amnesia: Yang ends up hit with this on the way to Mysidia, falling off of the ship back to Baron and supposedly being lost at sea. When found again, Yang remembers everything except his journey with the party. However, a few good whacks to the head seems to snap him back out of that, too.

Useless Item: The Fire Bomb in the SNES version. It wasn't completely Dummied Out - it's just only dropped by Red Dragons in the Lunar Subterranean. By that point, their damage is a pittance compared to what any of the characters can do in a single round.

Bewitched Amphibians: The game features frogs that turn you into frogs (and, because of how the mechanic works in-game, frequently subsequently change you back again). A (justifiably) pissed off wizard in Mysidia will turn you into a frog, but, again thanks to the game mechanic, will turn you back if you talk to him again.

The Battle Didn't Count: Golbez pulls this off three times. The first time is in his Tower, where he's battled as a Cutscene Boss. The second is an actual boss battle in the Dwarven Kingdom. The third is on the receiving end for Golbez, as taking Zemus out with Meteor doesn't actually stop him.

Arbitrary Headcount Limit: You can only have five people in your party. This game's method of dealing with it? Killing off the spares. Though only one stays dead, which makes it all the more obvious. That Baigan joining your party would take it up to six characters is your first rather fourth-wall threatening tip-off that he's a monster on Golbez's side (and he's outed as such before you even have a chance to go to the menu screen.)

Fission Mailed: In the fight with the Dark Elf, the party is wiped out by its initial onslaught of spells. However, Edward senses their distress and plays a song that reinvigorates them, after which the fight properly starts. Golbez summons a dragon that picks off the party one by one. When it seems he's won, Rydia shows up and destroys his Eidolon with the help of the Mist Dragon, giving the heroes the chance to recover and fight back. The Final Boss easily defeats the entire party in addition to Golbez and Fusoya. It takes the collective prayers of everyone on the planet for them to recover, enabling the last battle to start.

Franchise Codifier
 Final Fantasy IV (Video Game) / int_f470199
comment
Franchise Codifier: The game influenced the franchise decades after its original release due to how radically different it was from previous entries, both narratively and gameplay wise. On the narrative side of things, the game follows the story of several named, well-defined and speaking party members (unlike the first and third entry) and was the first Final Fantasy game to truly focus on the story and character interactions. On the gameplay side, the game was the first to use the classic ''Active Time Battle'' system for its turn based combat, as well as being the first game in the series in which all characters have defined combat Jobs and skills that make them unique from one another. Its impact on the franchise as a whole is undeniable, especially on the much beloved sixth entry in the series.

Cutscene Power to the Max
 Final Fantasy IV (Video Game) / int_fe262584
comment
Cutscene Power to the Max: The Titan summon. When seen in a cutscene, it causes an earthquake that permanently alters the world map. In later uses, it's a normal summon spell. Not to mention that Rydia's level 1 at the time and doesn't even have enough mana to summon it yet. Cure spells used in cutscenes manage to completely heal the whole party, even when they barely hit double digits when multi-targeted in battle. They are also shown to revive a fallen character, a trait normally reserved for the Raise spell. Tellah's cutscene use of Meteor exceeds his maximum MP (90) by 9. Moments before, he casts four spells that add up to 110 MP, then casts a spell that costs 99 MP, making a total of 209 MP used from a maximum of 90. This is because Tellah's desire for vengeance caused him to Cast from Hit Points, and Tellah dies shortly after the fight with Golbez is over. The Mysidian Elder apparently gets access to a higher level of Esuna than Rosa ever gets; he can cure the petrification on Palom and Porom that the player's magic and items cannot undo.
