Is Tactics Ogre the one where every time you play a new class you start at level 1 and have to grind again?

The new one is not like that, it’s basically the same as FFT. Character has a level, farm JP for classes. If you haven’t played it you should really get it, it’s fantastic.

So far I like the TO remake more than FFT remake. I really don’t like these super small parties when you can have so many characters and classes. Much more fun to utilize more people.

Triangle stratigy and sword of convallaria (the story mode, the spiral), both did really cool stuff with the tactic style game

I looked at TS and it looks cool but both the positive and negative reviews say it’s extremely narrative heavy and battle light. People either love it or hate it for that reason…I already know I wouldn’t like that. I want to play games not scroll through endless dialogue. I’m fine with some like TO and FFT but don’t want it as a main focus.

Seconded that TO is worth playing, and debatably better than FFT.

If looking at the old-school PS1 versions I'd give FFT the edge over TO, but comparing the modern remakes, I'd put TO over FFT by a margin.

Then again, right now FFT is kinda pissing me off. Would it kill this game to not always give the entire enemy roster the first move in every battle?

i actually found the battles to be extremely tactical and a few characters have very innovative/good abilities. like a mounted soldier who moves VERY far, my favorite is maybe a guy who can make ladders and 'push traps' that let you fuck with people on cliff edges. I havne't played it since around when it came out, but i did feel like there was a lot of innovation in the fights. i enjoyed the battles in it quite a bit.

it does have a lot of dialogue at parts though, decisions where you pick A or B and one makes a character unable to join you in favor of another. the big dialogue drag everyone is maybe talking about is that when you get to decisions, often times everyone has to talk a bout it. then everyone votes. in the votes EVERY voter talks. so i could see that feeling like a slow down.

one of the more interesting things about it is that it's like...a branching decision tree style game. like at the start you can go to region 1 or 2. then there you can decide X or Y. which branches the story a few times. ultimately some characters will be your homies and others will be your foes. BUT when you finish the game you can do new game plus where the difficulty is right where the end of the game left off, with your same guys, no matter the story branch. so you can slowly sort of do each branch of the story to see the various unique battles. and in NG+ you can just use whoever. up to and including people who died in the story if i'm not mistaken. so it's got a fair bit of replay value in that respect. pretty well done.

I should have poached Boco. Only took like an hour for my roster to start filling up with chocobos.
