as a fire emblem gay I really didn't like it. I figured since I liked triangle strategy it would be a good fit for me but i just hate the fricking maps. The story seemed interesting tho
I also didn't really like Tactics Ogre. Triangle Strategy and Fire Emblem both know how to tell a story, Tactics Ogre is kind of...bland? I also played the switch release and thought the controls were confusing (I'm moronic)
Definitive version. It doesn't have all the shitty time wasting mechanics that the PSP remake brought to the table.
It gets rid of class levels, all the grindy passive skill leveling, inability to see chaos frame for recruiting, speeds up game play, no grinding up new units since you can feed them xp items so you can actually use late game units if you want, gets rid of the moronic chance of failure on the crafting system (since you'd just reload anyway). Overall more challenge since you can't just out level shit due to story related level caps. I would say they failed to make interesting bosses since all of them are just giga Black folk with 4 card stacks, outside of just a handful. Final Fantasy Tactics was basically just Tactics Ogre chaos route.
Also the people praising Triangle Strategy as good story telling are slack jawed homosexuals. What a fricking horribly slow and awfully paced story. Let's recap the scene we just watched with minimap diagrams to show where everyone is currently going, which they just fricking discussed. Frick that shallow piece of shit mimic game. Tried so fricking hard to be FFT/TO and failed.
I still need to complete PotD. I think I'm on the 30th floor or something like that. Then again I also need to complete the Law and Neutral route of the game too
It's fricking good. I enjoyed playing it so much last year, and definitely one of my favorite games of all time. I played it handheld on the Steam Deck comfy in bed and it was such a great experience. If you want to nitpick, the card system that they added in the remake isn't well balanced, but it was not enough to stop my enjoyment at all. The depth of the story, the characters, the writing in general, the music. All straight fricking kino. Legitimately they don't make games like this anymore.
Canopus is a great beginner unit but falls off really hard once you get winged rings/boots and everyone can fly. He doesn't do great damage like summoners can and archers got super nerfed so he's just kinda there. His sister Iuria is the best support unit in the game and is a mainstay once you get her in the postgame.
I don't think it's particularly great, characters sorta suck. Some can have ok motivations but the actual interactions between them are few and far between outside of the main 3 or so, and a lot of the other plot relevant characters are just complete mustache-twirling evil fricking idiots.
The gameplay is pretty straightforward too and falls into this feeling of most terrain not especially mattering and most matchups not being remotely interesting because entire classes of characters will either do 0-10 damage per turn against enemies with 600 HP, or they do 200+ damage per turn against those same enemies, very little in between.
It has an almost interesting idea for story branching but the actual decision is a pretty stupid one and it proceeds to run away from it and make the same things happen regardless.
It's pretty bad. Maps are huge but character movement is more suited for something half their size.
Listen to the soundtrack on Youtube and you'll have gotten 95% of the good stuff the game offers.
I thought it was fantastic. A little slow to start, but once you get into it, its great. Tons of classes to recruit, huge teams let you try all sorts of different strategies. I put 200h into before I took a break and I still have most of the post game to complete and one of the three main story paths to complete. I’ll be going back to it once I play something else for a while. I honestly like it better than FFT after playing it.
It also has voice acting, but I honestly didn’t care for it, seemed out of place in a game like this, but you can turn it off. Definitely recommend.
It's great. It's a little difficult but imo just enough to make it interesting. It gets a bit too easy lategame, but there's also near endless post-game content which continue unlocking playable characters including ones that died gruesome deaths bcuz time travel and other unexpected ones
story is interesting and grim and your choices affect what happens in significant and unexpected ways. both the story and gameplay can seem like too much at first, especially the story, but it kinda gels after you just keep playin on.
i'd definitely recommend using the speed up option and I believe that's only available on Reborn, so that alone makes it the definitive version imo.
Not worth playing, one of those games people praise without playing. And those who have played it and praise it are simply high on marketing lists (top 10 must play classic JRPGs! You know the type.)
At the time of release it was generally ignored and for good reason.

Proof positive you have to be anally autistic to enjoy Tactics Ogre
Nah. Triangle Strategy lacks the budget but it succeeded. It ranks behind FFT and TOLuCT but those are the pinnacle of the genre.
10/10 got me
Good. Stay in your lane loser. Don't touch Unicorn Overlord either
as a knights of lodis fan, I wouldn't recommend this to anyone. also clean your room
>also clean your room
???
this website is full of AI posts, don't worry about it
isn't this game like the precursor to final fantasy tactics?
yes
It's great. Managing the inventory of all your troops fricking sucks but other than that, great game.
I love it, the game is very nuanced and poignant, but also very boring on a surface level, don't forget to read the Warren Report.
$40+ for a game that is 20 years old with minimal changes, mostly bad, is fricking moronic anyway you cut it.
>Denam how dare you have loyalty towards your country and other things to do that aren't sucking my clit 24/7
I played it like crazy when I got it. Did everything except save the fricking wizard in hell. Couldn't figure out how to beat that map.
I still need to complete PotD. I think I'm on the 30th floor or something like that. Then again I also need to complete the Law and Neutral route of the game too
Game has some of the best artwork in any game ever. Every girl has sexy as frick thighs.

It's great. Just play it.

For me, it's Canopus.

Really loved the writing on this one and the voice acting. Dropped like 700 hours on this and still never managed to in-game hundo.
same. i'm close to 100% tho and I almost never do that in games. still plan on going back and getting Warren and Lancelot
it's better than that piece of crap triangle strategy what the frick was that jesus christ

>and for good reason
That reason being it was a SNES game released on playstation with zero fanfare.
It's got its own share of issues compared to the other versions. Worth playing if you liked FFT.
