Game Podunk blogger, ShaneMullikin writes, "Final Fantasy Tactics is arguably one of the greatest games ever made. It had an excellently crafted mature story, and addicting character customization that no other game has come close to. Final Fantasy Tactics is a game that I will continue to play over and over again because of its vast levels of customization and complexity. The saddest part about currently replaying this masterpiece is the reminder of the lack of any similar SRPGs on the market that are capable of grabbing a hold of me in the same way that FFT did.
If you enjoyed the Final Fantasy Tactics experience at some point in your life then you don’t need me to tell you why the game was so special. However, for those of you who have yet to play this game I will break down what made this game so amazing."
Final Fantasy XVI producer Naoki Yoshida is interested in working on a brand new Final Fantasy Tactics game.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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...
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.
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 has a long running history with numerous numbered titles and spin-offs, but which games stand to benefit from a remake?
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
The Final Fantasy Tactics team is "heavily involved" in a new unannounced project, according to Theatrhythm producer Ichiro Hazama.
It could be that or a remaster, that Nvidia leak list of games is getting more accurate.
With the likes of Bethesda and Bioware pumping out gold that I love to play whats not to like? Unfortunately I think Japanese devs have gotten stuck on the same vein for a while now and they are being left behind.
Forget SRPGs, RPGs in general are in a sad state.
Im guessing the author never heard of disgaea?
The sad state of SRPG? No, their not in that condition yet cause we're still had Valkyria Chronicles, Disgaea, Radiant Historia, etc etc.
And for the looks of it, more and more we will see games that blur the line between SRPG / RPG / RTS and other genre's. So yeah, SRPG are not died but they evolved ;)
I miss
Tactics Ogre and Final Fantasy Tactics
now THOSE are great games
