    will this see a euro release?

    That reminds me I've got to complete that game.

    What the hell is wrong with me, I haven't completed this the first time round and I'm tempted to get this international version if it gets released in Europe.

    This is what happens when your fed Final Fantasy at birth goddamnit.

    So its the same game but with more character customization options?

  • Hunam #4 5 years ago

    Basically, classes (jobs) are added to the game. To get more specialised characters. Think FFT/A.

    If this comes to Europe, I'm -so- buying it! :)

    I hope they give us the Japanese voices, though. just like they are giving the Japanese the English language voices.

    I don't think they will be giving us Europeans Japanese voices because they have to cram all the other languages the game is translated into on a single disk. Or is FFXII PAL only available in English? (I mean dubbing, not subtitles)

    Well, you gotta give it to them, they sure know how to make nice trailers out of a mediocre game.

    I would get really excited about this new job system and such, if I didn't know how much FF12 actually sucked. It's funny, the few minutes you see in this trailer is pretty much the amount of storyline that they managed to smear across 80 hours of mindnumbing dungeon crawling.

    I think the overall licence grid system was SHIT. I'd certainly be more tempted by the Zodiac System, it sounds far better to me.

    Still, can't take away that Vaan and Penelo have the personality of a cardboard box, Basch is poorly scripted for such an interesting character, Ashe is far too much perv material, Balthier is just annoying and Fran's own specialities are completely useless throughout the game.

    _Well, you gotta give it to them, they sure know how to make nice trailers out of a mediocre game._

    I'd hardly call the most innovative RPG in recent years "mediocre".
    My only complaints with the game are the storyline (it seems unfinished) and all the restrictions Square had to put on the game so it would resemble a Final Fantasy.

    "Most innovative RPG in recent years"? Excuse me while I have a good laugh.

    It was an MMORPG without the MMO (which to me is horrible). The only remotely innovative thing was the Gambit system, but 1. it felt very limited in many ways (not gonna elaborate now) and 2. it made the game into something you don't play, but just watch (doing everything manually is out of the question - the battles just weren't balanced for that).

    Regardless of whether or not the battle system was any good, though, pretty much everything else sucked. I seriously, honestly question the integrity of anyone who gave it a 10/10.
