Final Fantasy XII is due out in Europe on 23rd February, Square Enix has announced.
The hugely anticipated PlayStation 2 title will be the last core title in the famed RPG series to appear on the Sony console, with number 13 already queued up for PlayStation 3.
Clive actor Ben Starr plays kiss, marry, kill with Final Fantasy characters, and decides to off Cid from Final Fantasy 12.
Ew VO actors and their cringe core. Fiverr voice actors could out perform this chump.
Final Fantasy XVI makes big changes to the series. It has a new approach to combat and a mature story, that makes XII the perfect game to play after.
It's always a good time to play ff12. But more importantly absolutely everybody that has a ps5 should be playing ff16!!
What a game yoshi p and his team have delivered, we can only hope they have been handed the keys to next main line final fantasy and they can go back to back!!
ff12 was the worst ff imo; no character was unique because of the class system, so in cutscenes no character had an assigned weapon; they were all different skins of one another; the game played itself, the main character wasn't the main character and it was just a big eh
Still the last one I really enjoyed.
Series is just all over the place anymore and, while people like the new arpg gameplay, it doesn't do anything for me.
The world is the real star of XII. I didn't care about the character nor the story but the worldbuilding was excellent.
First, the rumor itself. When Final Fantasy XII originally launched in 2006, plenty of players were left disappointed by protagonist Vaan, who many deemed to be dull and apathetic. From this, a rumor sprang forth than companion Basch was originally meant to be the protagonist of Final Fantasy XII, but was switched out of the role at the last minute.
This rumor has gained traction ever since, to the point where multiple outlets have reported it as fact, and Final Fantasy XII’s Wikipedia page (opens in new tab) even mentions it as part of the game's development. Now though, years after the rumor originated, original Final Fantasy XII director and scenario writer Yasumi Matsuno has stepped in to quash the rumor.
I'm still convinced Vaan and Penelo were placed in the game as a last minute decision.
ok that doesnt change the fact that Vaan is the least intresting and biggest waste of a main character in the franchise.
like Penelo and Vaan are literally just there, to be there. any other character has more purpose haha.
The characters and writing for this game, just wasn't good, I have a hard time believing that there wasn't some major changes at some point (do writers just not leave notes for each other if one of them gets sick or leaves?).
It was obvious Vaan was of little importance. His brother or Balthier should've been the MC. They've already told us that Vaan was chosen just so the game can appeal to younger audiences. But well that's square for ya, always trying to appeal to the masses rather than just do what they really want to do and favor core fans.
in edge magazine in uk this game won there game of the year 2006.........
1. its not out .
2. its good but not that good as japanese reviews show3.
edge is a strange magazine.
This game is an insult to all the other final fantasies (except X-2) its just rubbish. It was even on gametrailers most disappointing game award.
It's just so boring walking through bland passageways attacking the same enemy over and over again.
