NO IT STANDS FOR ALIEN VISION PERVERSION
BORING~~~!
(just noticed the post above mine :] )
It looks like 90% of the staff was cut.
man o man even the GBA Tactics is better than this POS.
This doesn't really mean much as the GBA Tactics was an incredible game.
u know guys.. SE one biggest failure, which make'em fall so low is because
they forget about Biggs & Wedge..
It's pre-alpha...it got to be...surely, we're missing on a sh*tload of content that is yet to be implemented....
Yeah...that got to be it...
Yeah, content like graphics, gameplay, and story...
it's for mobile devices. what you see is prolly all you are going to get
In case any of of you didn't know this, they are basically ripping and re-releasing the gameboy advanced version of FF-tactics.
Look it up and be further disgusted~!
DOn't expect too much stuff. It is only a game for phones. It is natural that graphic wise it sucks a bit. As for gameplay and story you should wait for more videos.
as someone working on a tactical game for mobile devices, size doesn't matter and is no excuse for poor gameplay
Welcome to the gameplay-level of well ... actually hard to tell.
I mean there are better games in flashform then that that have been based on thge classic FF. How could they mess up FFT/FFTA that much?
Even the artwork is crap - wanna bet it takes at most an hour to find more and better FF themed pictures on deviantart that could make a game?
Maybe they should hire some barbarians to tell them how to sell games beyond their teeny tiny isle.
Agreed. This is not the Final Fantasy Tactics I whittled hundreds of hours of my youth away at playing. Someone please take Square Penix to the chopping block if this is honestly the shape of their games of the future.
They reused even the promo art work of FFTA 2... This could be a one-man project.
Like FFTA? Pretty sure the missions in that game were thrown together by one poor temp in a single afternoon.
And, by the looks of it, they hired some flash designers instead.
Even the art is bad/amateurish.
Looks like they recycled a bunch of it from Tactics Advance.
It's mostly from tactics A2
Geez, just go back to what made FFT good..
Buying almost the entire team that did Tactics Ogre and ripping it off!
You guys do know that this is the EXACT SAME system the Ogre Battle games (except Tactics) used, right?
...right?
and here i am feeling ugly because i saw ogre. got a problem with that?
SE is now making EA look like the good guys now.
SE is stupid, while EA just plain evil.
Did they take the entire premise of tactical battles out of the 'tactics' game? It looks like the grid is there in spirit only and the battles are closer to Final Fantasy 3.
They should probably just rename it "Final Fantasy Arithmetic" from the looks of it.
Do not insult FF3 like that.
uh sorry but what do you mean by evil? i have seen some hate to EA but never found out why
But that looks better....
Can we consider them buried and dead already? It's tiresome to even glance at this shit now. There are a few developers left that actually try to make some worthwhile games, even now. Squarenix is finished. Dead. Gone.
I see a lot of text but no selection menus. What's going on?!
I liked music!
Only.
Sadly there hasn't been a good Tactics game since the first one...
I remember when their games were amazing. Then they merged with Enix and it seems only Dragon Quest gets any love....
Just put final fantasy out of its misery already
Tactics has no legs to stand out with Matsuno gone anyways. Who does SE have left other than "Belt & Zippers" Nomura? Yoshi.P can only do so much with SE slave driving him with FFXIV.
The interface of the battle screen consists of a text box and a skip button? Are the battles presented visual novel style?
This is blaspheme! The first FFT was the game that single-handedly popularize 'Tactic' sub-genre. And now, look what it has became. SQEN can screw FF series what ever they want (but they shouldn't even do that in the first place) but I cannot believe they can ruin the game that has very well established gameplay style and art direction like the FFT series. Honestly, there's no single hope left in this company anymore.
don't be fooled, this is actually more "All the Bravest" than it is Tactics.
you can choose your characters to have in your party, and where they should stand... and your characters have levels and potentially multiple abilities...
that, and the grid is the only thing they took from Final Fantasy Tactics. the rest is FF ATB.
Alright, that's it! That was the last straw. The game industry is fucking done. It's over.
It's up to indies now. The only games I've been getting even remotely excited about lately are Kickstarter projects anyway.
Squenix and every other publisher should just fucking die a horrible death, and let their properties enter the public domain. The men in suits have killed almost every franchise out there. I trust the fans more than corporations, now.
It isn't even a Tactics game anymore...
Don't worry guys. I'm sure we're only seeing a bare bone section of the game.
...The rest of the "game" will be purchasable as in-app purchases...
They have been using the good reputation of the Final Fantasy name in order to push out piece of shit games for over a decade already. People will buy into this game just for the familiar name and setting.
Some people got out after 13 and 14, but others are still brainwashed into thinking those are good games for whatever reason, completely oblivious that they have bad taste.
Absolutely disgusting
NAH! IT LOOKS COOL! I APPROVE OF IT!
Square Enix: Well, if this game wouldn't work we might have to back Square one...
