Clarification: on the Ahead on Our Way question, the author probably meant
why the midi collection .zips have the file. The answer is that someone probably
goofed. But it's a cool song, so just enjoy the bonus!
Q:
I have not yet played Strategy/RPGs such as "Final Fantasy Tactics", and
"Bahamut Lagoon." How are they any different from regular RPGs? what
are their relationships?
AK: I don't know jack about Bahamut Lagoon, so I'll ignore that
part of the question, and focus on FFT. The main differences between
FFT and other FFs are: the battle system and the overworld system. The overworld
is a Risk-esque type of world, where you move your party from point to point, not
drifting around in a true world to explore. FFT has little to no exploration
involved. The most important difference is course the battle systems. Tactics
battles place you on a battle field with your party of 4-6 characters, and you
have to move them around the field to gain strategic positioning over the
enemies (in a turn based format). You can assign your characters different
skills, so there's not only in battle strategy but between battle strategy. The
key is making sure your party works as a team.
Q:
quick question. In FF2, what does Tellah supposed to say when he says you
spoony bard? This is a question that I have been trying to figure out for
a long time.
PS Toad The Wet Sprocket is the best band ever, yes even over U2 and REM.
AK:
I think spoony is just a direct translation of the Japanese, or maybe an
insult that just the translator had heard of. In either case, I think the
only thing we can agree on is that it's quite the powerful insult...
PS Toad is good, I like them. But REM is better lalala
Q:
In "Weird Al" Yankovic's song, "Fat," did you know his shadow weighed 42
pounds? So is he part of the answer to the life, the universe, and
everything?
Jeremy B
AK: Such a classic song too. I have no doubt that Weird Al and
his awesome hair a key component to solving all of the universe's secrets.
Q:
ANSWER THIS QUESTION!!! Why is it that moogles don't have any feet
or knees?!?!?!?!?!
AK: Hey man, mellow out, don't shout. I've got an earache now. Moogles
appear modeled after stuffed animals... ever see a stuffed animal with knees?
Q:
Hey! What's with this crap! In the latest Q&AK, Kymion had the balls to
ask MY question, AGAIN! (re: How do you pronounce RPGamer) Turn your
attention to the March 18th edition of Q&AK where you'll find MY question
that you already answered. Is the world comming to end? People are
running out of questions to ask you!! And not ONLY did this guy ask my
question, my cables out! No South Park for Johnny. =( GRRR!!!
AK:
Whoa. More tension. You guys need to remember your sedatives! Anyway,
I'm sure he had good intentions, and I'll probably answer it again before
it's all said and done, because I have a bad memory (what question did I
answer twice? I forget..) And don't worry, as my mailbox stuffed to the
brim can assure you, people are having no shortage of questions. Now, remember
to get a good night's rest, drink your milk, and take your Prozak.
