Games, like with any other art form, should never be lost to the Ether forever, and the likelihood that these two games still exist on the hardrive of some computers out there, or as an Errant download link on a preservation site, is higher then zero in my eyes.

So to the point, is anyone remotely familiar with what I’m talking about, and if so, do any of you know of a safe place to download a version of these games, and perhaps their Server/Client software that was avalible with them during their existence?Ĭuriosity and nostalgia aside, I am interested mostly in preserving the efforts of those who created these games, and would greatly appreciate any help in doing so. I say that, because I don’t actually know if they got into anything later, but regardless, it sucks. Several years ago, a DMCA takedown of both these games was issued to BYOND, and as a result both these games were scrubbed from the servers, and their developers dropped out of BYOND, never to be heard from again.

However, we now get to the meat of this thread. I may be hyping it up too much, as it was never truly finished, but it was an very impressive game when I first played it several years ago, and I would very much like to play it again. The game was programmed to be exactly like FFV gameplay wise, with tweaks to events and land structure to allow more freedom in progression. Great pains were made to ensure you would have interesting progression going through it, as by completing dungeons and exploring the world, you would unlock the various job classes inherit to the original. The real winner, however, was FFV: Another World. With FFIV, you created a character from any of the main cast and stuck with them, picking up equipment and learning spells along the way. Two games made on this platform were super close recreations of FFIV and FFV, both made to allow players to create characters using the main cast of those games as avatars, and play through the world while being able to team up with each other on the same server.

There are quests, bosses, a working town system where you can take over towns and have underlings join your fiefdom, and plenty of spells/skills. The style of play is similar to that of Diablo II, and works perfectly. It fell off in use quite a few years ago, but some of the games made on it had since been breakout hits, like the infamous Space Station 13, and the retro-mmo NEStalgia. Final Fantasy Online is a fan game based off of Final Fantasy 1, with many features that I don't see in other BYOND fan-games. lol yeah :rcry: who the hell told the company about this game on byond lol BYOND. For those who don’t know, BYOND is an open source web game client and game maker toolkit designed to work with the website of the same name, intended to allow members of that site to create many different kinds of games and play them with each other using server/client connections. I havent heard someone say BYOND in years (RIP Final Fantasy Legacy).
