Final Fantasy VI

Date played: July 19th
Platform: Vita
Session fun rating: 8/10

Whew! Lots of story developments going on here... We opened the gate for the Espers but they flew off in a rage and started destroying shit. As soon as we got out of the dungeon, we got on the airship and headed for the empire's continent to see if we could talk to them. As soon as we got there, the ship was attacked and crashed.... boo! Unfortunately, that means walking is back in style. We made our way to the capital where were to meet with the Emperor. Before the big talk, there was a cool sequence where I had to go speak to as many guards as possible in the castle to gain some support for our cause. I think I managed to speak to about 20 in four minutes.

The Emperor's banquet
We then had a very interesting meal at a banquet with the Emperor. He claims that the war is over and that we must fight together to save the world from the Esper's destructive rampage. Terra agreed to speak with the Espers and will go with Locke. The others will stay behind. I think I will get to see their adventures later, but for now, I headed to a nearby port to get on a boat. Terra and Locke had the surprise of being joined once more by Shadow, the bad ass ninja with a cute puppy. Our three man team is now ready to go meet the Espers.
