My biggest complaint about FFTA so far is actually the terrible, terrible user interface. Three button presses to see which skills you're learning at the moment. Infinite more to compare item stats, not while you're equipping them, of course. I realize the GBA screen is kinda cramped but holy poo poo, I want to play FFTA2 afterwards and am so looking forward to having double screen action which hopefully fixes these issues.

Mega64 posted:I preferred TA2 myself since it made the law system into a reward system rather than a punishment one I dunno, at least TA1 didn't punish you for such awful offenses as "getting a critical hit when we say one thing but really mean the exact opposite." I'd rather have laws that were annoying but understandable to half the poo poo TA2 makes you divine by pure chance and getting your "reward" revoked for things you cannot control.

Tactics Advance had invincible bunny assassins, FFTA2 made them no longer as good. I know which one i consider the best.

Are we still doing shortened stories? Final Fantasy Tactics - The Lannisters and the Starks are at war, some prince and his peasant friend fail to stop some political turmoil, and then his friend kidnaps a princess, but then they change their minds and kill the dudes he was working for. They kill one king and implicate another, the peasant marries the girl they kidnapped and becomes the king. Except she hates him and they pull a last minute reverse Romeo & Juliet and stab each other to death. Also the pope is Satan. The peasant gets all the credit and the prince is a heretic. Final Fantasy Tactics Advance - Some stupid kids read a book and talk about videogames.

Are we still doing summaries of the games? Final Fantasy: The worst game in the series. FF2: The worst game in the series FF3: The worst game in the series FF4-6: The worst games in the series FF7-9: The worst games in the series FF10: The worst game in the series FF11: The worst MMO and game in the series FF12: The worst game in the series FF13: The worst game in the series, holy poo poo. FF14: The worst MMO and game in the series What we know of FF15: It's going to be the worst game in the series. Sometimes it's like you people forget the thread title. EDIT: NOW, if we're talking spin offs and games unrelated to the main series, then that's a different story. FF:D is the culmination of everything that the "old" games were, basically, in that all the characters except like, three, are idiots and the plot is save the world because.

Simply Simon posted:So far, I'm 25 hours in, have 85 missions done and am pretty happy with the game. Got a dualcasting summoner, a fresh assassin (apparently broken?) and I think Illusionists are ridiculous. Also: Mog Knight who knows Ultima Charge but doesn't have the MP for it, so he's destroying poo poo as Juggler. Oh and it has insane stat growth rates (and you can, in fact, recruit one randomly at starter levels if you do the clan rejection trick at the beginning of the game, meaning you can start gaining those ridiculous stats from Lv2) and its only real weakness is MP, which has such great growth anyway that you'll have enough MP to cast the insta-kill spells three times in a single battle by the time you reach the point in the game that you're at now.

I tried Dissidia on a whim, and I didn't expect it to be really good. For a while, I had no real idea what I was doing and was just mashing square to win. But now I'm fighting a level 15 Sephiroth as Cecil, and I'm getting my rear end kicked. Because of that, I'm actually learning about how the game works, and it's surprisingly solid. It feels like I am the Dragon Ball Z!

Xeno-Jesus was awesome. (do you actually mean Jesus or Yeshua/chaos? Both are kinda chill though) I guess if I had to summarize Xenosaga it be that: Fembot is gonna save the universe because the universe is being overrun by Space Ghosts but also God is there loving up poo poo by accident because he doesn't realize how frail everyone else is and that they lose their minds from merely having a chat with him. Also rape imagery that makes Alien look subtle.

It's not a huge loss if you do Dissidia first, you won't have to replay it. You just coulda saved $10.
