Yeah is there even a place for Tactics 2 in the current market?

Vagrant Story ending spoiler:
Ashley even already looks like a Nomura character at the end of the first game!
I think this could change If Rabbids turns to be a sucess.
Rabbids is connect to one of the most popular/powerful gaming IP's though.

This. With a gambit system.

They talked about reviving their IP via mid budgets/outsourcing recently actually. It's certainly doable. They could make a platform change to save money anyway if needs be. I wouldn't imagine a game like Tactics 2 would be too expensive, not like the fans are the type to demand expensive CG throughout. Tactical turn based games still get made plenty nowadays.
The cost would be less than say, a FFXII spin off/follow up (which I'd also be really happy with).
I think they just make a mid budget game out of this than Tactics.

I think crazier announcements have taken place this gen but I'd be just as happy with a new FFXII game personally, so I don't mind at all.
Speaking of SRPGs, I do wonder whatever happened to that rumour for a new Front Mission game? Cancelled?

Another Tactics would be great but I would really like a straight sequel to XII as well. I would love to see these characters get more development and a deeper incursion into this world's lore. When I saw XII's ending for the first time it really hit me how much these characters had grown on me.
It's downright criminal that Nomura had the luxury of dicking around with his Lightning fetish for all those years. The things Matsuno could've achieved with that amount of time and money.

Ff7 remake we Will discover that the world is the future ivalice where the humans exterminated the other races.
And since ff10 is the Future of ff7 the last game of this world is on the glorious ffx-2 and ffx-3 oficial fanfic
ffxii - ffxii revenant-tactics - tactics A2 -crisis core - before crisis - ff7 - advent Children - dirge of Cerberus - ff10 - ff10/2 - ff10/3 audio drama
All tied together

Nomura? Lightning? What.
He literally has nothing to do with her besides drawing her a few times based on someone else's ideas.
I'd want a new stand alone game in the setting to be honest. The XII cast has already gotten their spotlight so unless it's that Fortresa/Ashe game then I'd prefer something with new faces. A new Tactics game in the style of the original or the Advance series would be great too tho tbh. Throwing my money at Square.

You mean Toriyama, not Nomura.
Wha? What sort of value could the gambit system provide in turn based gameplay?

How the XII remaster is not coming to the Switch is still beyond me. Thing would sell like hot cakes

AA budget for a Tactics game is completely fine, it doesn't need a AAA budget. Look at what Nintendo pulls off with the Fire Emblem games. A new entry in Final Fantasy Tactics could have mobile-esque graphics, there's no need for a massive open world and enormously detailed assets.
Kills me that they don't put this out, would be a great fit for mobile, Switch, downloadable game on PSN...
Saying "well if you guys buy enough copies we might think about a sequel" always sounds like a cop-out to me.
Tactics 2 as a RTS? I'm intrigued...
I'm weary. Do I want this? Hell to the yes, and times twenty if it's Matsuno. But I don't think Square has the manpower. FFX/X-2 HD has sold quite well and the years have rolled by with no word on a sequel or spinoff. Didn't we hear the same rhetoric back then, for that game? Isn't the Spira saga a hotter look to the mainstream than our based beloved Ivalice?
I will buy the remaster. I will live in hope. But I am skeptical anything will ever come of it.

If they don't fuck it up then hell yeah! I love Ivalice!
maybe it is? It could happen, but even so, just dont expect Squeenix to ever mention it until the PS4 version is out for a while. Thats their MO for marketing.
What I want most is at least port Tactics to modern game systems. I dont wanna upgrade my iPhone OS and lose the game cos its 32 bit...
I dont expect Matsuno-san to work on any large scale project as a lead again.

Thanos acquires the fully powered Infinity Gauntlet in The Avengers: Infinity War, but loses when all the superheroes team up together to stop him.
Imagining another game in the same general timeframe of Tactics, but with XII gameplay, makes me unnaturally excited. Either 50 Years War or a sequel game.
I'd also be down to just explore other countries of XII's world. Rozarria and most of Archadia are unseen.

That better be FFT2 and not FFTA!!!
It's sad but Final Fantasy is at a point where my ears perked up and I said "Ivalice?! I loved..." and the thought died in my mind as I imagined a mediocre action RPG teased for 7 years and delivered to middling reviews in 2025.
Sorry, not placing any more hope in these guys until the next time they deliver something special, like FF XII, FFT or FFTA.

Ivalice is great because Matsuno is great, but beyond XII, I've recently come to terms with the fact that I'm not really super interested in Ivalice itself. If Matsuno made it, I would be there Day 1 of course. If they pushed it onto Toriyama or Tabata? I probably wouldn't be excited.
I know the chance is slim, but over these years I've learned to never say never when it comes to Squeenix and FF ports. Haha
Its a good game for portable play and I am sure a lot of people would like to see that happen.
I want Revenant Wings made in the style of Final Fantasy XII.
The game's flaw is its simplified, repetitive strategy combat system. Funnily enough, everything else around that is actually really good. The game actually features a lot of what some were missing in XII, more of that day-to-day character development and lighter moments. The broader story is really nice too, and funnily enough it was made by Toriyama. It's by far his most coherent and enjoyable plot, and in many ways is like a better version of XIII's story.
If it were made in the style of XII as a full-scale sequel, I truly believe that the two of them together would make a spectacular whole. XII, with all of its qualities as we know them, then XII:Revenant Wings which takes more time to focus on the character's lives. But, still with the same gorgeous world design and atmosphere (seriously, Revenant Wings is full of locations that would be stunning rendered in full).

It would be made by the FFT/XII team though - have they ever made a game that let you down? They're not the XV team if that's what you're referring to.
