I will say Machinist is basically useless in ff12. Guns aren't great on their own, and you will never ever use Measures because they are impossible to set up gambits for and there is no practical way to use them manually

You have the switch version, you can respec at almost literally any time. If youre super paranoid about difficulty* make one of balthier, basch, fran a white mage and vaan some form of physical attack class it literally doesn't matter. Then once youve gotten back to rabanastre after freeing basch you can swap everybody into whatever classes you want. *I didnt have a character capable of casting healing magic until i had a full party. This game is bonkers easy dont stress at all about anything.

Ff12 literally plays itself, it's a mindless slog. so don't worry about difficulty The toughest super boss in it is purely difficult because it has lots of health so the fight takes longer and that's it

You can get an Arcturus at Raithwall and shoot everything to bits until late game using elemental shots. Machinist and White Mage is quite good. Measures aren't necessary to make the class good or worthwhile even. E: machinist uhlan berserk dps machine is also excellent JBP fucked around with this message at 14:28 on Jun 21, 2019 |

Decided to replay FFT on my phone. Great game and the port is really solid. On my first playthrough I never did any of the sidequests so I was missing a lot of endgame items and special recruits so I think I'm doing that this time

I honestly didn't even realize they changed Tifa's bust until people started whining. She looked about right to me, in line with the general move towards more realistically proportioned character designs and away from straight anime. The designs are still not exactly photoreal (i.e. Last of Us), but they are way more naturalistic and the rendering is now definitely photoreal. Huge honkers from the original design would have looked comically out of place with the new art direction.

The change is kinda whatever but they probably should've just shut the gently caress up about it once they went with it instead of throwing it on the ethics department It's a little confusing though because the last model they had was fine without going "unga bunga beeg teetee"? The more hosed up thing with the design for me is adding all the extra black. It's all really moot though, there'll be mods to make them bigger than her head or glow in the dark or whatever on PC within hours if not minutes when that comes out so anyone with angst about the titty will just get that one

I hope they plan on giving a massive overhaul to it and not just give it the Secret of Mana treatment, because if there's any game I can think of that just needs to be completely redone, it's Legend of Mana. Legend of Mana is some of Square at their absolute worst. The game itself is so buried in unnecessary subsystems and obtuse FAQ bullshit with progress many quests gated by arbitrary triggers, access to locations and quests gated by criteria you have to stumble across (The third quest in the game most people will complete gives you two companions at your home base you can pick up at any time at no cost... except there is a location in the game you unlock later in the game that only activates when you're alone and the game gives you zero clues that is the case,) a ton of tiny and large systems like magic creation and monster raising to interact with any one of which could form the backbone of it's own game, and all of it frames... a very lackluster action RPG with a barely-functional, super basic combat engine with some obtuse action learning systems tacked on that doesn't really manage to stay fresh through a normal one-plotline playthough, forget three. The worst part is, what is there that's good is really good- the visual imagery and soundtrack are beautiful. The plot, as incoherently as it is told, is probably the strongest in the Mana series once you start finding all the connecting threads. There's a lot of good ideas in the combat system that could lead to a fun and robust action RPG just are never needed because just running up and whacking things with your basic or heavy attack is more then good enough for the entire game and often outperforms anything remotely more elaborate.

If you're down with emulating, the PSP emulates really well these days, and there's a patch to remove the slowdown from that version. Could be a good way to test if you like it before shelling out.

And also, that interview going around is a mistranslation. They didn't say to reduce the size of her boobs, they said to give her a sports bra and not to put in tons of jiggle physics. In fact, they don't mention reducing her breast size at all. Which, again, is because they kind of didn't. Wearing a sports bra just makes them look a bit smaller.

I’m not saying I want anything from the structure changed, outside dealing with how easy it is to lock yourself out of stuff (something that can be done in most cases by adding some if-then logic to when quests start.). Most of Legend of Mana’s failings come from the actual mechanical game all the good stuff is strapped to- it’s either a good game in spite of itself or one of the best bad games carried entirely by everything that doesn’t involve you touching the controller. Revamp the combat, rework the various creation systems to not be arcane FAQ bullshit while also making them actually useful for... anything because combat can be won with stock equipment and no abilities with zero effort. Make 2P not a colossal goddamn afterthought.

In America, of course, it's Final Fantasy Adventure, while in Europe it was Mystic Quest, not to be confused with Mystic Quest Legend, which is what they named Final Fantasy Mystic Quest in Europe, while Japan got Final Fantasy USA Mystic Quest.

That would work better if it was easy to lock yourself into the Jumi path or the Dragon path, rather than having like three minor quests you can lock yourself out of by not following a land placement guide. That said Legend of Mana is super charming and I am totally down for a remake.

Legend of Mana had beautiful graphics, amazing settings and excellent music. The weird storyline, convoluted crafting, and mostly simple combat really detracted from it though.

The Jumi story is the only main quest you can hard lock yourself out of if you accidentally do a quest later in the chain before meeting Lady Blackpearl.

I'm fine with Tifa's design though, and the sports bra thing should have been obvious given her fighting style as well as the undershirt thing that is clearly visible. No need for anyone to flip the gently caress out. I'm holding on to my 'flip out energy' for more important things, like when/if they start revealing they hosed around with plot/characterization stuff. I'm still not convinced they aren't dumping in Compilation poo poo into this Remake. Honestly, the only thing that bowled me over with that interview is that Square apparently has an ethics department that they consult for poo poo like this. Like someone else mentioned, where the hell were these ethics people when Cidney was getting the green light? How long have they been a thing at Square? Were they around to give the okay for Rikku in X-2? So many questions I now have about this mysterious group.
