I’ve posted about the great Youtube walkthrough channel U Can Beat Video Games several times in the past, so I try not to report on every video they do. And lately, as they’ve been tackling bigger projects that take a lot more time to finish, there haven’t been as many to post about.
But now they’ve completed their four-part series, each at three-plus hours, on one of the most iconic JRPGs from the era, Final Fantasy IV, which of course got released in Western markets as Final Fantasy II. It goes over everything in the game, every secret, every step of the story, a lot of cool tricks and strategies, and more.
I understand some people use this as background for doing other things, or as their adult replacement for Saturday morning cartoons (look them up). In any case, it makes for a lot of viewing, so block off a fair amount of time for this.
Here are the direct links and embeds:
Part 1: Beginning to Cecil’s promotion to Paladin (3h44m)
Part 2: To Dr. Lugae in the Tower of Bab-Il (4h8m)
Part 3: The Underworld and up to the Bahamut optional fight on the Moon (4h17m)
And finally:
Part 4: The remainder of the game, and the ending (3h38m)
If you think this is huge, it’s only going to get huge-r when they reach Final Fantasy VI (er, III)!
