@crazychickendude91 I was playing for fun on an emulator...you want to see my real stats? Come over to my house and see me play on the actual system...you people are too picky. Just watch the video.
i've only played FFTA2 and i enjoyed it a lot! but the story was kinda too simple and directed more at younder audiences. now i heard there was a FFT game with a good story but i can't seem to remember which one it was. was it FFT, FFTA or maybe tactics ogre?
I haven't played the FF series since FF X (so FF IX was the last I played), but FF Tactics and FF VII were in my top 10 favourite ps one games (another one from Squaresoft was Parasite Eve). shit, the truth is that there are no games like this today, I know it sounds boring but that's the way it is. the graphics here is pretty basic, but you forget about graphics after 5 mins of gameplay which really absorbs. needless to say that the game industry was at it's prime at those ps one days.
epic..epic..game. I finished this game about 7th time since PSX glory days till now I play it on psx emuator. Squire ramza with dual sword from ninja is a beast.
@mjavor I'm going to say yes because I still can't think of a game that I enjoy half as much with regards to replay value. I bought the War of the Lions version for my IPod touch about a month ago and I'm still playing it. I like all the additions they made for it. But it is very annoying to play without a joystick though...
@guardiane This was my favourite game when I was a kid as well... haven't played it for years though. I can definitely see how it could be annoying without a joystick, I remember playing through the battles at lightning speed on the PS1 hahaha
@mjavor Dark Knight in the psp version owns. Sanguine Sword (Gaffgarion's sword HP Drain move) + having any knightsword equipped = unstoppable, except by undead, but Crushing Blow works (has a chance of inflicting stop). I haven't tried the Onion Knight class, primarily because it doesn't get skills of any kind so meh. I like the Dark Knight class more anyway. I wouldn't mind if they could make another remake of it for the PS3, they could include Paladin, I mean why not? Dark Knight is included.
@titinitintin download yourself into a transportation vehicle, click and drag to nearest store with psx games in stock, upload into store, search for fft, mentally click checkout, ensure credit card information is going through a secure channel, click finish and "x".
I absolutely LOVE the sound people make when they die on this game. Gratifying when you make a kill but it gives a bit of panic when it happens to you.
I wasn't going to try this because I've read there are less jobs in it than FFTA2, and I adore a big variety of jobs...but this game play looks really fast comparatively, so I'll try it.
@shemhazai48 true true, but still maybe because i played it like 12 years ago in ps 1.. and in psp he can change into dark knight.. well i dont know it just the image in my head like that.. hehe
I honestly don't care for any of the FF games, but Tactics is by far one of the best and original games I've ever played. Tweekin' again to play it, but thanks to PS Network being down for God knows how long...@#$!
no se si hables español , pero ramza, puede ser un job mas poderoso con dos espadas, un espadachin con dos espadas estaria mucho mejor, eres master enninja , saca la habilidad de dos espadas y cambia el job a uno mas fuerte resistente y ataque :)
this game i remember came out after FFVII on ps2 and i was so looking forward to it to check it out only to scream- WHAT A LOAD OF WANK and swiftly went in the fkin bin.
Yes, getting cloud at chapter 4 can be problematic since he starts at Level 1, like a fresh recruit from the Soldier Office. Also, you need to get his Materia Blade in Bervenia Volcano. You can train him but it will be a long time. However, FFT gives huge amounts of experience and JP to Cloud. As long as I can remember playing his character, I receive around 50 exp + 40 jp for every successful action with him when he is in Levels 1 to 20.
It sucks. This game is such an underrated gem in the old Square Library and it gets passed up by everything else.
Dissidia FF doesn't even give so much as a throwaway reference to the game, they just don't fucking care about it. Will Dissidia 012 give two shits about Tactics? No, but it'll give us the characters we didn't actually like from FFXII who doesn't even deserve to be in the same universe as Ramza, Agrias and Delita. You know, the whiny fucking teenager whose name I can't remember.
@WinstonFisher 'Will Dissidia 012 give two shits about Tactics?' No, it won't , because enix doesn't want to have references with squaresoft games, everything went to shit with IX, males became huge flaming faggots (not all) and females became... 'men', because men were so gay that they looked like the same. Dress Vaan with a decent T-shirt and you'll think it's a woman, similar concept with Tidus, face= fag , clothes= even more...
You probably wouldn't like to see Ramza in that environment.
This game... Just thank god I got to find out A game like this, there are probably games I don't know that are as good as this one, but I'll always remember this game :).
I gotta get this on PSN, but my Ps3 broke for the 2nd time after only working 1 year... and just before it broke i bought FF7,8,9 and Vagrant Story >.>...
MuaiThaips - Totally forgot about cloud! I had that big Brady FFT book that showed how to unlock him. Unfortunately you can't once you pass a certain point in the story. With no recent game saves close to that point I said screw it and moved on. lol Which also reminds me of how not having a previous game save could screw you royally. Certain battles didn't allow you to prep your team before a battle so you were stuck with whatever equipment they had on. Those battles never did turn out well :(
I totally agree with Lenoch!! Unfortunately for my friend he had actually bought "the new FF game" and came straight to my house to play it. We were amazed by the opening credits and ready to kick some ass. Then when we got to the game play were were saddened. Like Len, it just wasn't FF. But, considering he was out 50 bucks, we had time to kill and we were FF fans we gave it a shot. Turned out, after an hour we figured out the mechanics and were hooked. I agree dude, easily in my top 10 favs!!
@DarkMikaruX I really don't understand how people can go around commenting on different entries in the series saying "it isn't Final Fantasy". Isn't every new entry in the series something different, a stand alone game borrowing a few elements from previous titles? Aside from Mogs, Chocobos and Cid, every game is basically different, and from my understanding Tactics has all of those, it's just silly comparing apples to oranges.
@caitshiznit Its not silly at all. It has Final Fantasy on the cover & is made by Square. It's not an apples to oranges comparison at all. No different from when Konami released Contra 3 and introduced overhead levels. Granted, wasn't my favorite at all but it worked & in the end it was still a Contra game. And by saying it isn't a FF game, we are really talking more about the interface, how the world, characters & combat are portrayed. FFT is diff than any other FF game released. Period!
@DarkMikaruX You're talking out your fucking ass, all final fantasy games in the are different unique titles separate from one another. "we are really talking more about the interface, how the world, characters & combat are portrayed.", what about Final Fantasy VIII versus VII, just because Cloud isn't in it and the junction system was introduced doesn't make it a Final Fantasy? Please, you're just mad because their wasn't enough androgynous anime people in this one. Please shut up.
@SkySweetie The reason ai checked this video out is because this game is widely regarded as "one of the best games of all time". I wouldn't classify myself at all as a "strategist", but definitely as a number-crunching, stas-whoring RPG-fanatic.
@MikeLenoch5 I rented this game way back in the day and I was furious when I found out how the game mechanics were. I wasn't into strategy games at all. I wanted my money back. Well.... Turns out, this is easily on my top 5 games list of all time.
This game not only has a great storyline, but it is the single most "fun" game to be published under the name "Final Fantasy". It is pure fun. Great story... What more could you ask for?
FFT was a deep tale of political and moral intrigue. To this day, someone can play it and relate to the events/characters.
Then Square goes and makes the game that begins with a snowball fight. Advance is good, but its story is completely different. Thus, I couldn't get into it, because a story about school kids holds no appeal to me.
Point is, I want a successor to FFT. This generation needs more "smart" games.
@mogaby13 Yeah I know. I was feeling like a sojourner in a strange land for a while. Every time I would talk shit about kingdom hearts and FFTA and FF and SE in general the fanboys would come out and cry and pitch hissy fits. Figures it takes visiting a video on a gem like FF Tactics to find like-minded people on the matter. People who knew when the golden age of rpg's was.
@Ninjadelusion They need to get Matsuno back on the job. Whenever he directs a game (not juts produces, I mean actually DIRECTS!), it's almost 90% likely it will kick ass like Vagrant Story and FF Tactics. And of course Tactics Ogre.
@WinstonFisher Matsuno is okay. I don't think FFXII was "that" great compared to the games before it, although it was good and vagrant story is highly overrated in my opinion... That said Matsuno is better than the garbage they have been using lately.
Tetsuyo Nomura should be reduced back down to character art designer.
I'd like to see them give Kitase or Nojima the reigns over the next big project.
@Ninjadelusion You thought Vagrant Story was overrated? Blasphemy I say! But yeah I agree with you about the current staff. However, keep in mind that Kitase also gave us FFVIII (and I don't think ti was that bad though a lot of people hated it). And isn't Nojima just a scenario writer? Well either way, agree to disagree on who should do what. My personal favorites were Matsuno and Kitase mainly because Kitase gave us FFVI and Matsuno gave us FFT.
@WinstonFisher VS wasn't a favorable experience for me. As for the plot in and of itself, it just isn't something I think belongs in the category. The plot could probably be placed on 5-10 pages and nothing really significant. In terms of cinematics and directing style, it was decent. I just don't care for the game as a whole --I place high emphasis on the storytelling aspect of these games more than any other element.
@WinstonFisher Nojima is scenario writer, people writers have things in their heads that the directors never interpret because they are not psychic. Nomura was character art and I believe he ran FFX. I have more "faith" in Nojima and certainly yes -- Kitase than I do in Nomura's cookie cutter soft-core kingdom hearts abominations. He is becoming a hasbeen even in his art. He can still get it done though. Matsuno is good. I didnt mean to say he wasnt.
@WinstonFisher As for the original Final Fantasy Tactics; it is easily the most complete game I have ever played in the RPG/SRPG category.
I'd rate FFVII higher overall because of story, characters, music, stye, etc; but in terms of game play and everything else, it is the complete package. FFT is easily in my top 3.
Oh, and about FFVIII... I actually loved it. That game came in the shadow of FFVII and people tend to despise it unfairly.
@Ninjadelusion Like I said, I didn't really hate VIII at all, I seem to see a lot of people hating on it. I actually need to play it all the way through before I can really pass judgment as I only got past the first disc. As for VII I really liked it as well. VII was definitely very unique for its time and it still is fun to come back to. Tactics however is my absolute favorite of the FF spinoffs and possibly of the FF games as a whole.
@WinstonFisher Been years, but I think FFVIII begins to pick up at the end of disc 2. Anyways, yeah. FF T is easily the best spin off bar none and does compete with the numbered canon.
@anythingnew lol, k. I'm just story-biased. FFXIII missed the mark. Kingdom Hearts is decent for the "game" and a light story, but the standard I always measure games against is from Squaresoft of the 1990's.
To be perfectly fair, RPG as a whole has never been fairing too badly, as far as I'm concerned. FFX-2, Gothic 3, Demon's Souls and Dungeons & Dragons Online, just to name a few, have done wonders in keeping my thirst for RPG's of all sorts at bay, with their immense replay values. While the market is increasingly littered with more and more crap, there are still games out there that hold up the standards, in my opinion.
@xfma100 I have considered the perspective of a child in the matter, and I rule it out.
Look at FFXIV. Its such a failure that its absolutely free to play right now. You cant attribute it to mere opinion and childhood prejudice when the developer knows its that bad. SE is making inferior games as the timeline advances. Maybe some day theyll make games right again--though technological advancement in graphics is time consuming and fund heavy so i doubt it.
When I first played the game in the beginning it's freaken hard. They all turned to crystals But the more I played I loved it. I love the sound people make when they die. that yeaaaaaahhhrrr sound.. LOL.
Great game! It's funny cause it should only take a few seconds to cross the entire map but could take hours cause of random battles. Really makes you feel like your traveling. Epic.
@spike007980 I still own the original of this game, bought it back in like elementary school and kept it through the decades. I remember i used to wake up early for school just so I could get a mission in, haha. I now hold all other strategy rpgs up to this standard unfortunately . best game ever imo. I think i may start a new campaign now...
Haha, you could be my twin brother. This is exactly what I used to do, and I'd get in trouble for it all the time. Sometimes if I was about to get caught, I would just turn off the TV and run, and hours later I would come back to see my PS1 on and Ramza and his crew faithfully marching.
Sadly you'll be waiting for a while... In fact we'll probably never see one. But at least those of us with iPhone/iPad are getting this classic ported over pretty soon. This game was truly epic.
FYI, this is a PS1 game, not a gameboy game. Get your shit straight!! FFTA (the gameboy version), sucked ass! The game was a fricken chore to complete! FFT on the otherhand is, and forever will be, a masterpiece!
Even today, every strategy game with style comparible to FFT, the AI is so poor, you don't even have to try. In FFT, until you get Orlandu, the AI is amazingly smart! Because Orlandu is so powerful, he skews the rules of the AI so they don't properly predict what will happen next.
@asdfgoogle lol, you're so right. Once you get Orlandu and all the other knights the games difficulty runs downhill. The demon bosses were getting destroyed left and right. But before, I would have "oh shit" moments when fighting Wiegraf's demon form or even Gaffgarion, but then I learned about auto-potion and so everyone learned it. This game actually felt like advanced chess and I loved it for that. Hope they bring back the style in the future.
@rickdarko Absolutely! It's been my single most anticipated squeal since I played the original. When I heard about FFTA, I was SO excited, but NOTHING about FFTA compares to FFT. It does have an interesting story, but the graphics, gameplay, and AI are all SHIT. It was a complete let down.
goddamn i miss this game... nice party setup, i cheated and used a gameshark to make Ramza powerfu (Holy Swordsmanl, The gameplay in this game is just so addicting
I thought I got tired of this game until I played "Final Fantasy Tactics Advance"...now I want nothing more than to play this again. The GBA Version lost all the epicness and strategy IMHO. It was much too easy when it came to battle and much too annoying when it came to laws.
guys. where can i find materia blade? a website says it can be dug in mount bervenia> but where the hell is mt.bervenia? there's only a town called bervenia in psp version. please help. hahaha
@cezto999 In the original, it was located on the highest tier in the volcano stage. You need the move find-item ability. idk about the psp version but I imagine it's the same.

No different from when Konami released Contra 3 and introduced overhead levels. Granted, wasn't my favorite at all but it worked & in the end it was still a Contra game. And by saying it isn't a FF game, we are really talking more about the interface, how the world, characters & combat are portrayed. FFT is diff than any other FF game released. Period!

@DarkMikaruX You're talking out your fucking ass, all final fantasy games in the are different unique titles separate from one another. "we are really talking more about the interface, how the world, characters & combat are portrayed.", what about Final Fantasy VIII versus VII, just because Cloud isn't in it and the junction system was introduced doesn't make it a Final Fantasy? Please, you're just mad because their wasn't enough androgynous anime people in this one. Please shut up.

@SkySweetie The reason ai checked this video out is because this game is widely regarded as "one of the best games of all time". I wouldn't classify myself at all as a "strategist", but definitely as a number-crunching, stas-whoring RPG-fanatic.
MikeLenoch5 1 year ago
@MikeLenoch5 I rented this game way back in the day and I was furious when I found out how the game mechanics were. I wasn't into strategy games at all. I wanted my money back. Well.... Turns out, this is easily on my top 5 games list of all time.
This game not only has a great storyline, but it is the single most "fun" game to be published under the name "Final Fantasy". It is pure fun. Great story... What more could you ask for?

FFT was a deep tale of political and moral intrigue. To this day, someone can play it and relate to the events/characters.
Then Square goes and makes the game that begins with a snowball fight. Advance is good, but its story is completely different. Thus, I couldn't get into it, because a story about school kids holds no appeal to me.
Point is, I want a successor to FFT. This generation needs more "smart" games.

Why in the fuck does Square Enix suck so bad?
Squaresoft was great in the 1990's.
Final Fantasy has steeply gone downhill.
They refuse to continue the Chrono series.
They sold away Xenogears
They turn out bullshit sequels and bastardizations and half assed remakes of older Final Fantasies...
They need to make a new Final Fantasy Tactics in the tradition of the original --not that fairy ass light weight bitch FFTA crap.

Every time I would talk shit about kingdom hearts and FFTA and FF and SE in general the fanboys would come out and cry and pitch hissy fits. Figures it takes visiting a video on a gem like FF Tactics to find like-minded people on the matter. People who knew when the golden age of rpg's was.

@Ninjadelusion They need to get Matsuno back on the job. Whenever he directs a game (not juts produces, I mean actually DIRECTS!), it's almost 90% likely it will kick ass like Vagrant Story and FF Tactics. And of course Tactics Ogre.
WinstonFisher 1 year ago
@WinstonFisher Matsuno is okay. I don't think FFXII was "that" great compared to the games before it, although it was good and vagrant story is highly overrated in my opinion... That said Matsuno is better than the garbage they have been using lately.
Tetsuyo Nomura should be reduced back down to character art designer.
I'd like to see them give Kitase or Nojima the reigns over the next big project.
Ninjadelusion 1 year ago
@Ninjadelusion You thought Vagrant Story was overrated? Blasphemy I say! But yeah I agree with you about the current staff. However, keep in mind that Kitase also gave us FFVIII (and I don't think ti was that bad though a lot of people hated it). And isn't Nojima just a scenario writer? Well either way, agree to disagree on who should do what. My personal favorites were Matsuno and Kitase mainly because Kitase gave us FFVI and Matsuno gave us FFT.
WinstonFisher 1 year ago
@WinstonFisher VS wasn't a favorable experience for me. As for the plot in and of itself, it just isn't something I think belongs in the category. The plot could probably be placed on 5-10 pages and nothing really significant. In terms of cinematics and directing style, it was decent. I just don't care for the game as a whole --I place high emphasis on the storytelling aspect of these games more than any other element.
Ninjadelusion 1 year ago
@WinstonFisher Nojima is scenario writer, people writers have things in their heads that the directors never interpret because they are not psychic. Nomura was character art and I believe he ran FFX. I have more "faith" in Nojima and certainly yes -- Kitase than I do in Nomura's cookie cutter soft-core kingdom hearts abominations. He is becoming a hasbeen even in his art. He can still get it done though. Matsuno is good. I didnt mean to say he wasnt.
Ninjadelusion 1 year ago
@WinstonFisher As for the original Final Fantasy Tactics; it is easily the most complete game I have ever played in the RPG/SRPG category.
I'd rate FFVII higher overall because of story, characters, music, stye, etc; but in terms of game play and everything else, it is the complete package. FFT is easily in my top 3.
Oh, and about FFVIII... I actually loved it. That game came in the shadow of FFVII and people tend to despise it unfairly.
Ninjadelusion 1 year ago
@Ninjadelusion Like I said, I didn't really hate VIII at all, I seem to see a lot of people hating on it. I actually need to play it all the way through before I can really pass judgment as I only got past the first disc. As for VII I really liked it as well. VII was definitely very unique for its time and it still is fun to come back to. Tactics however is my absolute favorite of the FF spinoffs and possibly of the FF games as a whole.
WinstonFisher 1 year ago
@WinstonFisher Been years, but I think FFVIII begins to pick up at the end of disc 2. Anyways, yeah. FF T is easily the best spin off bar none and does compete with the numbered canon.

@Ninjadelusion
To be perfectly fair, RPG as a whole has never been fairing too badly, as far as I'm concerned. FFX-2, Gothic 3, Demon's Souls and Dungeons & Dragons Online, just to name a few, have done wonders in keeping my thirst for RPG's of all sorts at bay, with their immense replay values. While the market is increasingly littered with more and more crap, there are still games out there that hold up the standards, in my opinion.

@Ninjadelusion I like Kingdom Hearts, and I think Versus XIII looks promising, but it has taken 5-6 years and it just entered full development.
And we have gotten FFX and The World Ends With You as well.
It's just that everyone will think things from their childhood or when they were younger are better than the current things.
Remember how your parents would tell you things from when they were younger were better than your things when you were younger?
xfma100 5 months ago
@xfma100 I have considered the perspective of a child in the matter, and I rule it out.
Look at FFXIV. Its such a failure that its absolutely free to play right now. You cant attribute it to mere opinion and childhood prejudice when the developer knows its that bad. SE is making inferior games as the timeline advances. Maybe some day theyll make games right again--though technological advancement in graphics is time consuming and fund heavy so i doubt it.
Ninjadelusion 5 months ago
@Ninjadelusion True. But I don't play MMOs from SE anyways. But they have also gave us The World Ends With You, which was 3 years ago... But still.
But SE is horrible with developing games. I mean Versus XIII was announced in 2006 wasn't it? That's just horrible.
And some people did enjoy FFXII and FFXIII. Everyone has different tastes.
At least they haven't gotten as bad as what has happened to game series such as Spyro.

FYI, this is a PS1 game, not a gameboy game. Get your shit straight!! FFTA (the gameboy version), sucked ass! The game was a fricken chore to complete! FFT on the otherhand is, and forever will be, a masterpiece!
Even today, every strategy game with style comparible to FFT, the AI is so poor, you don't even have to try. In FFT, until you get Orlandu, the AI is amazingly smart! Because Orlandu is so powerful, he skews the rules of the AI so they don't properly predict what will happen next.
asdfgoogle 1 year ago
@asdfgoogle lol, you're so right. Once you get Orlandu and all the other knights the games difficulty runs downhill. The demon bosses were getting destroyed left and right. But before, I would have "oh shit" moments when fighting Wiegraf's demon form or even Gaffgarion, but then I learned about auto-potion and so everyone learned it. This game actually felt like advanced chess and I loved it for that. Hope they bring back the style in the future.

@rickdarko Absolutely! It's been my single most anticipated squeal since I played the original. When I heard about FFTA, I was SO excited, but NOTHING about FFTA compares to FFT. It does have an interesting story, but the graphics, gameplay, and AI are all SHIT. It was a complete let down.
I'm still waiting for that true sequel!!!
