this game's nice

>>723485894 (OP)
Sexo with Viera

that's fat damage.....

peak tactics rpg, no other game comes even close

PC port when? I'm sick of emulators.

It's really damn good, the second is great too (first is a bit better I'd say though). Always have preferred these to the psx original.

>>723486682
funnily enough it's my first time going through it
despite the fact that I played through and finished FFTA2 15 years ago

FFTA is the only good TRPG

>>723485894 (OP)
Should I play advance over any other version?

>>723485894 (OP)
it is, fuck the judges though

>>723487236
I've always liked the system, as at least it makes missions less linear than if you had no restrictions, always using the same tactics

>>723487236
>>723487395
would've been way better if they made enemy formations that would fuck with different player strategies instead of straight up telling you how you can't play the game

>>723488117
I mean, formations already have different strengths and weaknesses though

One of my faves, found it outside on the floor of elementary and got a GBA in middle school and played it daily till highschool graduation. The save on it was pretty maxed out so I had a mini guide with his save, true nostalgia

AIEEEEEEEEEEE I'M RETARDED

>>723490731
>yellow
That's not jail right?

>>723490839
nah only a penalty like no mission reward (?) or losing an item
double yellow or an infraction resulting in a kill give you a red = jail

>>723490947
Well, Cristine's gonna have to pay up for that lost item with the rest of the clan, and there's more ways to pay than just money, surely a cute viera like her knows what I'm talking about.

>>723487395
what a cool antlion, announcing that he's wearing the cool guy shades

>>723490072
give it back jamal

>>723485894 (OP)
I do love that every game (Tactics, Advance, and A2) all have different rules for accuracy and Back Attack's effect on it.

You learn moves from weapons, the weapons teach you skills? it could have been good but like ff8 it was severely handicapped by a shitty combat system. It's like a cucked version of fft.

>>723493495
>You learn moves from weapons, the weapons teach you skills?
oh wait.... really? that's like FF IX then
also, would you have any hint for me as to how you unlock more advanced jobs? I'm only seeing the base ones for now ; do I need to progress into story missions first?

I played Reborn and Ivalice Chronicles, it would be nice to see Advance and A2 get the same enhanced port treatment.

>>723493495
>>723494062
also, where do you check the skills you can get from a weapon?

>>723494117
it'd be cool to have a new tactics game that's not an isekai

It's escapism!

>>723494062
>>723494319
/v/ros, please......

>>723494319
>>723496212
Just look at it in the inventory? Or go to the job menu and see what skills your unit is currently learning?

>>723497129
oh ok
thanks for the snark

>>723485894 (OP)
Why would you play a GBA game with a fake CRT filter?

>>723485894 (OP)
All you needed was a pair of Assassins and you could clear any map.

did you ever accidentally invite evil into your life by created viera death cult ruled by twin demonic moogle jugglers and deliberately prolong your playtime into the 100s of hours by forcing yourself to do elaborate purification rituals on each defeated viera enemy? no? just me?

>>723494062
>also, would you have any hint for me as to how you unlock more advanced jobs?
Your unit needs to learn a couple skills from the basic jobs to reveal the advanced jobs, then you can just hover over the greyed out jobs to see what number of A-skills you need to promote them.

I havent played Tactics Advanced 2 yet
is it good?

>>723499475
eh, it has more content when it comes to gameplay, along with obviously better graphics, but the story is so forgettable it hurts.

>>723499475
Better than Advance

Gria owe me sex

>>723499475
It's alright. The story is somehow even more childish than the first game with basically no stakes, so that was a miss for me. The gameplay is a mixed bag, they got rid of the gay yellow/red card system which is a massive improvement, but they made weapon unlocks a grindfest rather than tying it to progress and I personally don't like MP starting at 0.

>>723499475
is that real?

>>723499609
>>723499730
>story forgettable
that sucks
>>723499656
guess if it's not complete dogshit I'll try, the gria look cute

>>723500075
They're a fun unit hampered by only having 4 classes and yeah they're cute

Nice to see someone discussing akchual video games.

If you dislike the judge system and are emulating there are patches/mods to remove the retarded arbitrary rules so you can just play the game tactically. Nothing of value is lost, trust me.

>>723501237
can you link them? I dropped the game immediately because of that, I hated the idea

>>723485894 (OP)
BIG step down from the original FFT.

>>723485894 (OP)
The game is great but what really irks me about the game is how specific techniques like for example the Air rend from fighter is exactly the same as the white monk variant.
This is what annoys me the most about the game and I wished the game make each job unique to each other

>>723490947
I've seen a boss get double yellow and it did nothing

>>723499475
Adelle and Frimelda were cute!

>>723503740
It's only bad whenever (you) do it

>>723488117
>How you can't play the game
Judges are easily abusable once you're nearing halfway point. I used to bait enemies to get jailed all the time

>>723487236
I like the laws and cards, otherwise I would just steamroll the entire game with the same couple of builds

>>723503910
Double Magic Summoner, whole reason why you start with 0 MP in FFTA2

>>723485894 (OP)
You'll love A2

>>723487070
All three are good and worth playing, don't mind the autists who say Advance and A2 are bad because MUH POLITICAL DRAMA, all three are good.

>>723493495
it worked to keep you from just grinding at the beginning of the game and coasting the rest of the way I guess.

>>723485894 (OP)
I've put in so many hours into that game
so many nights under the blanket with my GBA SP that my mother gifted me on a comfy Christmas night
really glad that it had two savefiles because my brother also really liked it

>>723503910
Let’s take a moment to appreciate just how good the summoner animations were in tactics advance

>>723505573
meant to quote >>723504119

>>723485894 (OP)
I couldn't get into it. Not a fan of furries, Narnia, or the Law system.

>>723498543
Way to prove her right.
He's now New kid forever, not new kid.

>>723499475
I only played it for a bit on an emulator a decade ago. The portrait art was worse and it felt a lot more restrictive than the previous two games. You had to unlock all the weapons in the shop by trading in materials to the bazaar and job unlocks required a quest along with the weapons skill requirements. I also remember the sound effects being worse than FFTA and FFT.

>>723499909
yes

>>723487046
shining force 2

>>723507565
where did he learn that

The scariest penalties are those that reduce stats. I don't think I ever found a way to increase base stats on characters so it was like literately crippling them.

>>723503601
It has the excuse that Fighter is Hume exclusive and White monk is Bangaa exclusive. It would be a huge issue if they were universal jobs though.

I don't like that the endgame in FFTA is a Rube-Goldberg machine of dispatch missions, trying to get RNG on your side so you can obtain some random niche item to complete ABC mission(s) so you can unlock XYZ mission(s) in order to unlock 123 mission(s). It's doubly bad because the dispatch missions are also story-progression timed and if you miss them you are basically playing a save file that can never attain 100% completion. It felt so arbitrary

>>723485894 (OP)
also to the people who keep lamenting judges: if 11 year old me could figure out that walking back and forth in the overworld moves days forward and changes laws, you should've been able to figure that out too

>Viera are straight up superior mages than the dedicated magic oriented race
>the sequel makes this even worse

>>723508286
this is the kind of female empowerment we actually need in games

Vieras are straight up superior*
Fastest class
Best caster
Dualcast
Blood Price

A Viera only party is OP as fuck.

You don't know the pain of trying to reach Clan Rank 30 in Negotiate skill early-game, so you can get the dagger early that teaches you "Steal: Ability," so that you can then steal the ability "Steal: Weapon" early from a certain enemy in a certain mission early-game so that you don't miss stealable weapons from unique one-off enemies in certain missions early-game. Because the weapon that gives you "Steal: Weapon" naturally doesn't become available normally until late-game or mid-game and by then you've missed a shitload of rare one-off otherwise unattainable weapons that teach you abilities early.

The problem with Bangaa and Nu Mou is that they don't have any exclusive skills to make them stand out.
Humes have Dual Wield (and Paravir)
Viera have >>723508514
Moogles have Smile

>>723504119
Red mage with Summon is better

>>723508841
Baanga have trickster which are the fastest mages in the game with a a strong mix of physical and magical abilities. Nu mou have
... uh... sage and beastmaster?

It has the best job system of any game ever

the only real reason i'll play ffta/ffta2 is to make a clan of vieras, focusing on summoner

>>723509978
I wouldn’t say you are wrong for saying this but I would argue XI is better. very similar system just more fleshed out in a way that only a 3D action-oriented game can provide, but I like them both equally for different reasons

>>723510307
>FINAL fantasy ELEVEN was 23 years ago
never tried it

>>723504119
Tricksters are just worse jugglers

Mog Knight leveling then switching to Gunne for high attack power and concentrate + stopshot is the shit. The Hero Gaol fucks shit up.

It's too slow IMO. If I wanted to replay it I have to:
>go through the tutorial and intro
>go through 5 of the most boring missions

>>723507609
i concede

I hate that the sexo girl is only attainable at the end of the game fuck this game man fuck it fuckkkk it but I also love it. xD

>>723485975

One of my most favorite games of all time.

BRAVO ANON

>>723510854
Catbox is just shitty. Check the next link.

>>723510461
It's mostly good for thr stats. Trickster + Templar/Bishop sub is the best support mage in the game because it's so fast

Where can I get wings of the lion for Android, I don't want to buy it but I can only find APks on a site with a money mod which feel sketchy, and I don't want to download an emulator for PSP either

Is Ivalice the most perfect fantasy world ever?

>>723499475
Is the best game of all time
>b-but the story is baaaaaad
Kill yourself, if you want a story read a book, this is a game.

>>723487046
Fell Seal is basically the same but with 10x more customization and a worse artstyle. Worth a try in any case.

I always liked Final Fantasy Tactics Advance. Enemy groups level up with you so when I realized it I left a bunch of low level clan members so the enemy groups were always like, 10 levels below me.
If I did it again I'd go with No Mous with the AoE magic attacks because one of them has no yellow/red card counter ever and moogle gunners can learn ultima shot and if they have the mana from being mages...
Anyway, I remember my first playthrough was mainly Viera and Dual wielding humans. I liked bringing enemy clans to the Jagds and using Viera assassins to turn them all to stone.
Nothing ever happens to them in game and they respawn but I liked pretending I was making a statue collection.
Oh? You're a Paladin with fancy equipment?
>Humans steal good stuff
>Petrify with Viera
As much and as often as I could

>>723499475
i heard its crapola

>>723508028
>I don't think I ever found a way to increase base stats on characters
There's not, so if you get that you just reset and load. It's a retarded fucking mechanic. The stat growths being permanent from jobs is fucking retarded to begin with, at least with FFT you can use the delevel trap to unfuck your stats if you accidentally level up as a bard or something retarded.

>>723511356
>where can I get this psp game
>I don't want to play the psp version though
Wat?

>>723508179
that's such a fun mechanic, I love looking at the law and then wasting time walking back and forth to make sure it's not one that will make it impossible to attack the enemy monsters, or forgetting and then being forced to reload because you get soft locked into the battle

>>723511923
I liked viera summoners because they had big AoE, I forget what red mage added specifically but I know I used them as a sub class

>>723512625
Double cast and blood magic
