Final Fantasy XII

Way to fucking spam my thread you mother fucking british piece of shit.

I roflmao at that K_A.

The game should be sweet, a good refresh of the FF series.

Yeah, the trailers and commercail's look pretty sweet, I might pick it up tommorow or sunday woot!

It's very good though in parts there's a LOT of gameplay where the plot doesn't advance.

Best RPG of the series in my oppinion. I say best RPG because Tactics was the best of the series but it was a strategy game. I think its the most fun of all the games. Real time battles (Cant dodge but oh well), your timer is based on your speed and the speed of your weapons, combo attacks, combo quickenings(limitbreaks) just like Chrono Trigger. Also you gain levels + license points which is like the sphere grid in FFX. So you have your base stats + augments and whatever your armor and weapons add. It has the feel of FFXI only without it being MMO and no job classes.

What's the overall story like?

Have they stuck with a general tried and tested formula that works, or something new and different?

Its pretty much the same. War, revenge, your main char is an orphan(didn't see that coming), Its pretty much like legend of dragoon as the story goes. But its really well thought out ontop of that, I havn't played much into the main story (I'm focusing more on leveling and getting augments) but its what's to be expected. Big war, empire takes over your country, you fight for your freedom, you have a childhood friend (Which was lacking in X) which you most likely fall in love with later on(Just a guess). The story isnt where the game shines, granted its a good story but it kind feels the same in some aspects. The changes to the gameplay and leveling is where this game takes it to the next level.

Rurouni, what are you refering to? The side quests do leave off but when you progress in the main story things come together. (or so I've heard)
