            yeah sure, black and red armor and shit for the Empire down to the comical british accents vs the light and nice colors for the "Resistance" who speak a mix of languages and live in a highly diverse multiracial society.
            Setting include a desert landscape with Oriental influence that is occupied by a foreign hierarchical hegemony. It's Star Wars down to a T.

            there are no lightsabers in ff12, it has a greco roman aesthetic not an oriental aesthetic, the plot is about waring kingdoms and yo party helps the younger heir to stop his brother that's being manipulated by some god thing. it's nothing like star wars, I played this game after hearing how much of a rip off of star wars it was and nothing about it resembled star wars.

                if you think venat was manipulating vayne then you either didn't pay attention to any of the dialog or are a complete fricking moron. venat's whole deal is ENDING the manipulation of humans and sticks with vayne until the end despite having a chance to bail. and what does your cum drinking ass get out of that?

              You keep saying it has a greco-roman aesthetic, yet Dalmasca, for instance, might as well be Turkey 2.0 with its bazaar, persian carpets, shawls, shases. What exactly is greco-roman when everything screams Oriental.

                predominantly because it's part of the eurasian steppes and they have a strong mix of european and near east culture, conflating them with asia is a meme that pisses them off and I find it funny.

                Where do you think Turkish architecture came from. Spoiler: there is no Byzantine empire, just the Roman empire. The ottomans inherited Roman architecture (and Persian).

        The base story, you mean of a rebellion fighting an empire? I think that may have been written a few hundred times before 1977. Not sure what you mean by aesthetically. Any specifics?

    I want to grab Penelo's ass and use my grip to fling her high into the sky so she can use the momentum to strike down with a sword attack and produce a massive shockwave that would destroy every enemy near the landing spot, then we'd highfive over our great cooperation attack and grab all the loot, hopefully without breaking the chain because that small HP recovery when you loot something during a chain is one of the most satisfying vidya sensations i've ever experienced

    star wars itself was just an americanized sci fi version of kurosawa's movie the hidden fortress, george lucas even admitted as much himself. even then, there is nothing inherently wrong with telling the same kind of story in a different setting. the story concept just isnt as kino as say, matsuno's tactics ogre, which he based off the yugoslav wars of the 1990s. i love ff12 for the setting and ivalice has been utterly wasted in the final fantasy franchise, but the story is definitely the most underwhelming part of the game. i wish they had stuck to the original concept where you played as basch. coming off of vagrant story i was expecting a lot from a matsuno game and it just didnt quite deliver, maybe had he stayed in charge the whole time and not left mid development, but who knows.

    Final Fantasy 12 was actually about this god or angel named Venat who decided that gods pulling the strings of history was fricking horseshit so he left the god realm to go do Satan shit and let the people have free will, but our heroes got in the way of all of that because they were trying to stop warfare in the region with a WMD that came out of a god's ass or something

          The thing is I REALLY like the premise of Ashe's story. Ashe's general frustration at how everything was taken from her and her lack of power threatening to turn her power mad is a good idea for a main character to go through. Because her rage was justified but that rage could've easily made her start killing people who had nothing to do with it. Frick you got mine right? Except this story is so fricking boring and unfocused that any potential it has dies on the vine

            They handled her in the worst way possible. The occur is gave her all the shit she ever needed to resolve the plot but only before she realized she was obviously being manipulated and the only reason she realized it was because of an asspull by Vaan. She never gets to the point where she actually does anything questionable and has to own up to her behavior

        Nah, one of the rare cases where the remaster is actually good.

        The remaster is good, but it's too easy. The Zodiac job system makes it way too easy to become overpowered, and the rest of the game wasn't really balanced around it.

          The job system in general was badly tacked on and Square didn't know what that frick they wanted the gameplay for FFXII to be like, its why they kept changing it every time it got ported. Luckily PC had modding so that shit is trivial.
