I've struggled to hardly buy or ever complete most games especially RPG's even though they have been my favorite game for 30+ years (DW1 & FF1 LETS GO!); just everything seems too easy or not enough character customization etc, just get bored even though i want something to truly sink my teeth into.
I finally repurchased FFXII as when it came out way back in the day it was one of my favorite games and 3rd best FF game after FF3 (6) and FFT. I love the changes they have introduced, just got to pick my 2nd classes and instantly am running around trying to do shit i shouldn't be doing which is always fun. Just smoked king bomb like nothing even though i remember him ass raping once upon a time. Only gripe is they do have artifical locks behind some content strictly because you don't have access to a stupid spell/item to cure a status but fairly limited cases of that now. I'm skipping getting the top end secret uber weapons that make the game 100% snorefest but do enjoy trying to get items sooner then i should so i feel OP. Its a great balance for me and i do enjoy the story much more then most boring "hero" rpg stories. I hate scifi shit in my RPG's but they manage to infuse the technology stuff perficatly without ruining the gameing atmopshere for me.
Will be the first game i finish in a long time, to bad i have to take a break to test out Gears Tactics.
Also not sure if you can get your hands on but one of the best games I ever played was Cross Edge for PS3. Just something about it but i loved their design for fighting where battles were fairly tough on hard difficult to begin with but you had a mini game of trying to break the bosses to get the secret uber loot on top of it which require some good strategy and had a little bit of combo action during the turn based combat that kept it interesting. Very complex game on top of what seemed like a simple one, spent well over 100 hours in that one, only bitch was the NG+ true ending or whatever was really easy to fuck up and miss so i had to replay again. The post game content was great and definitely put you to the test, you had to do some grinding and have good idea of the mechanics to beat it all.
I tried doing Disgaea 5 on steam as that is a top 3 series for me but I just wish they had more story with the post game; its like 90% of your total time playing the game easily, dont need full fleshed out story but would like abit more to continue to provide challenges as you grind for 100 hours optimizing your peeps. There is some but just not enough to make me want to replay after a few years.
