Bebpo said:I'm picking it up but after ASH and Operation Darkness I'm all s-rpg'd out. Probably won't get to it for a little while.
Yeah, I enjoyed FFTA quite a bit due to the immense number of interesting job classes. Then again I also enjoyed it because I played it at 10x fast foward on an emu (own legal cart). I'm a bit worried at not being able to do that this time around. ASH has kind of tested my patience on slow srpgs.
The last one was perfect for late night gaming.sevenchaos said:Hopefully leaps and bounds better than the last one.
They didn't get rid of them, but you don't need to follow them anymore, you get a bonus at the end of battle for following them now.Baryn said:The only thing really wrong with FFTA was laws. Get rid of those and you had a really solid tactical RPG.
Impressions!!
traveler said:Wow, I didn't realize there was so much hate for the first one. I positively loved it. Is this one of those "Deus Ex: Invisible War" cases where those who played the sequel but not the original will find the sequel amazing while the vets hate it?

That's actually a swell implementation. Now my strategies will not be mundanely tainted unless I choose to go that extra mile.jj984jj said:They didn't get rid of them, but you don't need to follow them anymore, you get a bonus at the end of battle for following them now.
Noted.Aeana said:Something to note about laws is that even though they're no longer required, you can't revive any party members mid-battle if you break the law. A minor inconvenience, but it's there.
So that's why they made bodies disappear when they die, makes sense.Aeana said:Something to note about laws is that even though they're no longer required, you can't revive any party members mid-battle if you break the law. A minor inconvenience, but it's there.
Sure it can. If you have OCD.MoxManiac said:FFTA sucks because the difficulty is nonexistant - a SRPG can't be good without challenge.
Don't think so. I played FFTA before FFT and I couldn't stand it at all.traveler said:Wow, I didn't realize there was so much hate for the first one. I positively loved it.

Is one of your key issues the plot? Because I hear it's still crappy in FFTA2.Amir0x said:I didn't go into FFTA expected it to live up with FFT (which I don't hold on some golden standard, btw, I think that game is flawed... but it IS at its core extremely solid, unlike FFTA). I would have been happy with much lower quality, but it failed to meet even those. I explained when I hated about it before, though, so no use going over it again.
Anyway I hope FFTA2 fixes the problems I had, so I too will be watching impressions for some key issues to see if they're covered.

Propagandhim said:I don't know what it is, but it still looks like a GBA game. Is it the lack of frames of animation, few colors, or the resolution? Visually, it's kind of disappointing.
It shipped yesterday.Link1110 said:Is this announced for US release yet?
The first one was one of my favorite GBA games, so I want this game, and will import it if need be.
Aeana said:The battlefields are much more detailed and colorful.
It's like night and day.
It looks good, what else matters? Do you WANT seven polygon characters or something?Propagandhim said:But it still looks like a GBA game, wouldn't you agree?

Aeana said:Not really. The GBA is lower resolution and has a lesser color palette.
It's a significant upgrade, that the GBA is incapable of.
Bottom line: it's beautiful.

Sallokin said:I'm curious if you still learn job skills by equipping weapons in this one, or if they switched it to the FFT way of learning skills.
