Will Matsuno return? He was removed during development wasn't he?
The important question is, will the invisible weapons be avaliable?
People that criticize FF12 tend to be the same people that proclaim FF10 as the second coming of Christ. I ignore those people.
Also, if this weren't true, wouldn't SE denied it by now ?
Final fantasy 10 was utter dogshit by story standards. Only one worse since 7 is 13.
Interesting plot brought down by awful characters, ridiculous ending and poor execution. The only thing interesting was the twist but then they literally went and handled its solution in the worst, most predictable way they possibly could.
Probably the biggest letdown of a final fantasy game ever.
The only people I can see loving 10 are those that did for nostalgia purposes because it was the game that released in that sweet spot during adolescence/teen years.
Wishful thinking but since 10 was remastered along with 10-2 it'd be sweet if we also received Revenant Wings.
It'd make up for no Tactics Advance 3.
Square please. ;__;
So have we gotten confirmation this game is real?
Hahaha. I couldn't disagree more. FFX's story isn't far from being my favorite in the entire series, and I never had the issue with the characters others do. Not going to get very far advancing a debate of competing preferences and adjectives, followed by a declaration that it's impossible for you to understand anyone disagreeing with you unless they only do so because they're the biased ones.
That said, this whole "it's either X or XII" dichotomy is pretty unnecessary. XII has a completely different approach to storytelling, and it's one I adore. It's funny how these discussions always create this implication that if you like one FF game, you probably aren't going to particularly like this other FF game. People's tastes aren't usually assumed to be so narrow when talking about gaming in general.
You mean The War of The Lions .
I get the vibe people are only excited about the changes to how the game will look, not how the game will play?
I'm interested to see what they do to the combat and if they refine it.

It'll be a remaster, so they'll change nothing
It's IZJS so yes. it should have the OP weapons that spell FINAL FANTASY.
Most likely. Wonder if they'll give them models this time.
I was actually thinking about the Trango Tower and the Seitengrat
Current RNG manipulation techniques will not work, right? The Seitengrat will be a pain to get..
A game isn't just defined by how it looks.All I need is FF12 from the PS2 with AA and 60fps.
from this...
to this...
Sweet! .....on second thoughts maybe give us a more user friendly map but seriously this game doesn't need much doing to it.
Ohh, I dunno
Is that the one that is like 1/256 chance of spawning or something ridiculous?
Only in a chest in the deck of one of the travel airships
1% chance of the chest appearing
The chest has no model, you have to bump it to know its there
It will contain gil ~80% of the time, and if not gil, theres still a very low chance for it to contain the Seitengrat
The chance of getting it is ~ 1/10,000
Alexander O. Smith told me a while back they basically do.

FF12 has beautiful art direction, the best translation and script thanks to Alexander O Smith's skilled work, a great voice cast (people that criticize Fran's English voice work are tone deaf), and well written characters. Ashe as a blood thirsty power seeking princess is an excellent repudiation of the typical princess trope. This game is a master work, the skills of the developers behind it are wielded with such deftness that subtlety is confused for boredom and poor writing.
This game deserves a remaster more than any other from Square's library. Great fucking game.
By boring and worst, you actually mean coherent and mature - right?
If you are looking for nonsensical tripe.. boy, do I have the game for you: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B003O6JIVE/?tag=neogaf0e-20

Best PS2 Final Fantasy!

:/ Hopefully it's on Vita FFX/X-2 so I can gamble on the go...
If it's the International Zodiac version then I'll probably buy it to see if the new job system does anything for me. [...]Exploration was just slowly jogging in samey-looking maps of an area that was way too big for how little variety in design it actually had, combat felt unengaging
I lost track of many games while growing up but Final Fantasy XII isn't one of them and I'm really looking forward to this.
Just give me this on PC with some good options so I can downsample the shit out of it. Cant wait for this.
I've heard IZJS fixes those issues, but I'm not motivated enough to get a copy of it. I generally agree with your sentiments though. I really wanted to like FFXII (and in many ways I do), but hol-y shit was the pace of the game grueling. I mentioned this in that LTTP FFXII thread that was here recently;(it sounds like the speedup in IZJS would've made this much more bearable)I liked Giruvegan a lot as a location but fuck me was it long. Walking through that damn swamp, getting to the city, walking down endless flights of stairs, then turning around in circles in that damn yellow crystal. Just when I thought, "It can't get any worse can it?" It sends you to that stupid tower in the middle of nowhere and HOLY SHIT did I want to break my controller.
I think I actually stopped playing before the end and just watched a playthrough on YT because by that point I just wanted to figure out how it all ended. But yeah, story was pretty good for a FF game. It's kinda like Star Wars set in Ivalice, and I guess that's ok. Also, ashe needs longer pants and vaan needs a fucking shirt lol.
