This is cautious ground. One because it there were sequels on the Gameboy and DS, but then they followed the new policies of being more and directly interconnected than other entries in the franchise.

DragonKnight4205d ago

Those turds weren't sequels. They were spinoffs of a spinoff. The Tactics Advance series was terrible by comparison to the original. I'm talking an actual sequel here, maybe done with the same presentation style of Valkyria Chronicles. That would be awesome.

Godmars2904205d ago

Unfortunately, that's likely as best as you're going to get from Square in their current condition. Something that's going to lean more towards style than substance. Something that's going to use its lore as a crutch while generating sales from fans.

Me? I wish they'd take a look at Xcom and apply it to the next Front Mission or make Gun Hazard for PSN/XBL.

DragonKnight4205d ago

Yeah, I suppose that SE wouldn't do the game any justice in their current condition. One can still hope though.

FFT >>>>>

Why won't they give me a sequal

Omegabalmung4204d ago

I wouldn't want them to make one anyways. Square would find some way to mess it up just like what they did to Front Mission.

DragonKnight4204d ago

Maybe we should make a petition. Lol.

spok224204d ago

someone should make one on lbp vita lol

DragonKnight4204d ago

Interesting thought, but can lbp vita do strategy games?

It's insane its been this long since the last release.

CrimsonWing6912d ago

Not from you.

Knowing how you handled FF16 by trying to make it appeal to non-fans and changing the entire gameplay design I can see you changing Tactics to appeal to non-fans.

If they’re going to do this please give it to someone who wants to keep the game and genre in tact.

VersusDMC12d ago

He worked on tactics ogre reborn. Was there changes? He wouldn't make an FF tactics game an action game. It will be AA but faithful. Probably what the Diofield Chronicles team and some of the FFXVI team is probably working on already and he is just keeping a secret.

And FF hasn't had a set gameplay design since X. I disliked the MMO, 12, 13 FF's but didn't mald for years. I played other games. Stop crying as he probably won't make a single player FF again and will be busy with the next FF MMO.

EternalTitan12d ago

I can feel your hatred. Keep it up.

Ataraxias12d ago

Tactics Ogre Reborn was an overall solid product but almost eliminated the concept of builds in the game.
So we'd probably end up with a system where character jobs like Mercenary for Ramza is 80% of the character instead of being freeform.

SegaSaturn66911d ago

Tactics Ogre Reborn changed a lot of gameplay mechanics for the worse. The class system is weird and hard to lock in roles, and they shoehorned a new "random card appearing" mechanic on the maps which makes no sense. Previously you obtained those boosts from killing powerful opponents, not spawning randomly.

There's a way better way to play Tactics Ogre: the fanmade onevision mod of the psp version.

EternalTitan12d ago

16 was just a terrible mess.
Its not even a JRPG let alone a final fantasy game.
Yosi piss(who said he hates JRPGs) should not touch another Final Fantasy game ever again.

VersusDMC11d ago

87 metacritic can't be a terrible mess.
If Kingdom Hearts is a JRPG then FFXVI is a JRPG. And he said he hates the term JRPG as it carries a bad stereotype with western journalists.

So you're just incorrect on several fronts...

Asterphoenix11d ago

I wouldn't mind a new FF Tactics longs they keep the tactical elements of Tactics in it as well as a very in depth story. Which FF Tactics years ago has by far one of the best stories in the series.

Tapani11d ago

Yes, alongside with Vagrant Story. Playing FFT, then Vagrant story and finally FFXII is a bliss. Deepest lore and best stories ever made in video games.

Final Fantasy Games That Deserve the Remake Treatment

Final Fantasy has a long running history with numerous numbered titles and spin-offs, but which games stand to benefit from a remake?

gold_drake121d ago

i feel like all of them.
well except 2 haha.

shinoff2183121d ago

Agreed. Ff2 though can be made better, so it's not entirely a lost cause. Ff8 will gets its time. I do wish they'd do the old ones. From ff10 and up those ones still hold up pretty well.

kevco33120d ago

Honestly, I've always felt that VII and up 'hold up well' in that regard. The early 3D games just needed a cosmetic update. But the FFVII Remake is so different to the original in execution that a lot of games could be done in a similar fashion and feel far more modern.

I'm not saying that's a good or bad thing (that depends on your personal preference!), just that they could feel very different.

shinoff2183120d ago

Kevco I liked remake but I think your right. Idda been happy with a 1 to 1 remake that looked like ever crisis to. Or both

I'd just love I square would one day give us a turned based one with today's graphics. I can't really think of a jrpg that does that.

andy85120d ago

I'd rather the 13 trilogy just be ported tbh. No matter what you think if it, it shouldn't be the only numbered offline games not playable on new consoles. But naturally I'd play the **** out of 8-12 remakes.

shinoff2183120d ago

I do agree. I'd give it another shot even though I didn't like it at first. My taste change over time. Gta 4 for instance I was so disappointed it lacked so much of what san andreas had I didn't play it for like 5 years. One day went to a semi pro football game(American football) came home drunk and decided to try 4 again. I actually liked it after giving it a fair shot.

Rebel_Scum120d ago

Just make new games. Not every game needs to be remade.

Final Fantasy Tactics Team "Incredibly Busy" With New Unannounced Project

The Final Fantasy Tactics team is "heavily involved" in a new unannounced project, according to Theatrhythm producer Ichiro Hazama.

FinalFantasyFanatic433d ago

It could be that or a remaster, that Nvidia leak list of games is getting more accurate.

shinoff2183433d ago

G I wonder what that is

Good news though for sure.
