FFTA is good, it's just worse than FFT in every single way.

Xavier434 posted:I don't own one because mobile gaming doesn't suit me and I don't enjoy playing games on small screens like that. However, if they made a "super gameboy" version of the 3DS compatible with the Wii U then holy crap. I would easily throw down double what a 3DS costs now for something like that. The 3DS is 240p. You really don't want to watch those games on a big screen.

morallyobjected posted:It's also not even applicable to XIII, really. Sure, you can steamroll most of the trash mobs with auto-attack, but that's nothing new. There are plenty of other enemies and bosses that will wreck you if all you do is attack. You still need to heal, and applying buffs/debuffs makes those fights much more manageable. If the trash is so trivial, why does it even exist?

DrNutt posted:Widescreen was in the original because I remember using it with my PS2 hooked to my widescreen tv via component cables. That said, I want the same thing. The XII widescreen support is actually pretty bad and you lose a bit from the top and bottom of your screen if you are using it. If you are using an emulator you can use an actual widescreen patch and it's much better.

There is a difference between making the mistake once/twice at the beginning and literally quitting the game over it.

Help Im Alive posted:Stylus is probably the best control method I think but it's just personal preference Using buttons in some parts of the field songs is kind of finicky at first. After you learn how to do it properly it works just as well as the stylus. I personally use buttons because the stylus controls just didn't feel right for me. Both control schemes seem fine for all levels of play.

The fact that the later bosses in Bravely default assumed that you were actually competent at the game was really refreshing. Almost all RPGs get far too easy if you do any optimization at all.

John Quixote posted:Thanks for all the feedback, guys. I had originally gotten 1.3 because I heard a lot of things in FFT were non-functional or bugged and it looked like the most complete patch. I'm relieved to hear my frustration is shared. At least I'm not far in the game at all - I'm going to either just play vanilla for my first playthrough or try the LFT mod because I like how it keeps the rebalances and some difficulty while seemingly streamlining it (depending on what's better). Thank you! Just play vanilla.

What is the best way to play FF5 and FF6 these days? I have access to all of the relevant consoles (and phones if the ports are good). I'm also fine with playing them on an emulator.

Saoshyant posted:I have eight hours left to decide if I want to preorder Type-0 on Steam or not. I have not played any version of this game before even though it caught my eye way back on the PSP. I also know the story is a huge mess, though not the details because I didn't want to spoiler myself. So it's a good time for someone to convince me not to buy this thing 'cause I'm listening. On the good side it's 22€ with bonus Dota 2 items I can probably flip to lower up the price even more. On the other, I don't see anyone clamoring for it anywhere. It's bad. Okay it's not bad, it's mediocre. Buy it when it's $5 or less on a Steam sale.

Malek Deneith posted:Is the android version of FFT worth buying? I was considering it because I don't want to deal with PSP version slowdowns and can't get the PS1Classics because who cares about releasing it in europe, right? But I heard some stuff about android version not having Genji equipment and more importantly making an online licence check each time it's run and that's rather discouraging. If you have homebrew on your PSP (or Vita) you can patch the slowdown away. The PSP emulator on PC is also really good these days if that floats your boat. Otherwise, the iOS/Android port of FFT is about as good as FFT on a touch screen can be.

The White Dragon posted:The cheapo way to cheese (almost) any boss in FF10 is grind up your Overdrives on every Aeon you have and then just loving unload. Or does that form of Seymour have one of those spells that kills them as soon as you summon them? You can still summon the aeon and use its overdrive before Seymour has a chance to instantly kill it.

I really didn't like how the stats of each character in FFTA (and FFTA2) don't change when you change their job and are only based on the growths of the job the you leveled the character in. That meant that if you leveled a character in a job with bad growths (that the game doesn't tell you), you will just gimp your character for no reason. In the original FFT you could easily change people jobs around since their stats were mostly based on their current job. Not that it mattered in any way since game has no challenge whatsoever at any point.

ImpAtom posted:Why not play on Casual then? (or whatever the 'no-permadeath' mode is, I forget.) The risk of having to reset still affects how you play. With no permadeath you can suicide units into enemies to kill them. Even if you reset after deaths, you still need to be careful during the actual gameplay.
