>protagonist is from another dimension but he's been to this one 8 times before so he knows how all this shit works >just make him act like an amnesiac moron who doesn't know anything anyway so all the characters have a reason to explain the entire world to them
Ultima IX was dogshit
I don't mind stuff like The Lion, the witch and the Wardrobe. It's very fantastical. But stuff like reincarnated as a slime... I don't get it... and there are dozens of these animes with pretty much the same story beats everytime. I'm not going to call it moronic but the anime stuff feels moronic.
Isekai is favored by soulless subhumans who can't just let fantasy be fantasy
Everything must connect to the real world they live in or they cannot invest themselves in it
I was talking with my brother about this earlier. Why didn't they just make a Final Fantasy Tactics remake? That was an isekai I believe. And it wasn't half bad.
You're thinking of Tactics Advance, which is indeed a good game. The isekai premise is used in an effective way rather than just as an excuse to drop a generic MC into a fantasy world and proceed to suck his dick relentlessly for 26+ episodes.
No, it's shit. It stripped away everything that made Tactics good and slapped on a shitty law system that just meant you had to wander around randomly before every fight just to make sure you didn't end up in a fight where literally every command jails your unit. Also the game was pathetically easy even by kid's game standards, it's basically impossible to lose.
The first of many mistakes is that they didn't give you the option of playing a created character for an isekai game. Unless I missed some story bits, it really doesn't seem like her background mattered to the game story much that a few extra line changes could easily fix if you had the option of being a boy or girl character.
I feel like the plan was to make Agni's Philosophy under Tabata's leadership, but they didn't want the concept to go to waste after he left, so they forced the 2nd in command (who I don't think has directed a game before) to shit this out.
I wish they had put in a black gangster for a main character instead of generic brown girl.
Forspoken Andromeda
So why did Barry latch onto this game anyway? Tabata wasn't involved, was it made by the rest of the FFXV team or something?
Yeah it was by Luminous, who made XV under Tabata's leadership.
When the frick is this game even coming out?

>Have your protagonist be from another dimension so all the other characters have a reason to explain the entire world to them.
Isekai stories are one of the shittiest plot devices.

No
Never played TA, but I heard it was pretty good

Yeah, It was definately the GBA version that I played but I know it was on other systems. Didn't know the stories were different though
It's fine, it's cute.
Reviews go live approximately 12 hours from now.
Any final guesses?
I'm guessing most will be delayed because review codes weren't sent out
pretty sure Barry is banned right now but you can find him raging on twitter at people
That's too bad, was hoping to hear his opinion
