this rule is about all Units that are in this beautiful game include bosses. you should get to know about what boss you are fighting, with what element that boss damage, and what element is it's weakness, then pick the right armour to avoid boss damage and the right weapon to defeat that boss. The most important thing in this game is the elemental rules.

you should finish the game or at least proceed till last boss, then you should go to farm and upgrade your weapons and armours. but you have no idea about bunch of names if I write them here. for example dagger, if you combine two daggers together you have a chance to upgrade your dagger, yes of course it's not based on random, it will follow a very beautiful rule. We have many weapon and armour class in this lovely game. That was about material, now about the quality of the tool itself. you can find better performance from two same weapon with different material, for example: D>S>H>I>B>W the first is Leather represented with 'L', Wood with 'W', Bronze with 'B', Iron with 'I', Hagane with 'H', Silver with 'S' and finally Damascus with 'D'. if you have no idea about materials I have to say there are different type of materials that weapons and armours can be found during the game. I didn't hate it per se but the systems drove me nuts.The whole crafting is there to give you the ultimate material in both weapon and armour to defeat the last boss with ease beside it with crafting you can get the ultimate type of both weapon and armour available in this game. There is a timeline linking the two games and I believe it is strongly implied that the advanced ancient civilization mentioned in FFT is the world of XII.Īnyway, I tried Vagrant Story but couldn't get into it many years ago. As for XII, it is definitely the FFT Ivalice in the past. There is a quote by Alazlam Durai from FFT in Vagrant Story for what it's worth but other than that and some names, there is little concrete eveidence showing the worlds are the same. I believe the ties Vagrant Story has to the FFT are rather weaker than the ties between FFT and XII.

I would've been inclined to guess that anyway due to all the odd races first introduced in FFTA, but again there is no mention of Vagrant Story, which may or may not share the same world as Tactics. We'd like to show a different version of Ivalice. But I would say that it's another version of the world you've seen previously. Minaba: If you ask me what the world of Ivalice in FFXII is, it's something that's only in the director's mind, so it's hard to say what it's going to be or how different it's going to be. Q: Is the Ivalice of FFXII the same Ivalice as that of Tactics? In the end, it was an arcane weapon crafting sim with some extra content tossed on top for me. But the amount of effort required in crafting just to play the damn game makes it take up way, way, way too much of the game. I'll allow that it could take longer to make a devastating weapon, that's fine. If you have air/fire/etc and blunt/spear/sword/etc I should be able to combine a functional weapon in under 10 minutes for any given enemy without consulting a FAQ. There aren't any prerendered backdrops of sprites kicking about either. Instead, Square relies on real-time cut scenes to further the story in the game.

There is almost no full motion video in the game. Even with the aid of a FAQ, the system killed the game for me. Vagrant Story breaks from Final Fantasy in another way aside from the game mechanics.

Seriously, if you don't know how to craft better weapon types, train up affinities, combine items of different materials, qualities, and types seemingly at random the game is God damn frustrating.Īt one point, I spent a full hour randomly sticking stuff together and then reloading in an attempt to craft a weapon that could so much as scratch my new enemies. I call it 'Go consult a FAQ right now or you'll get your ass kicked in each new area' inane. The problem with this game is the much-lauded crafting system. Could had been fantastic if it made sense, as even with a FAQ it is hard to understand.Ĭompletely spot on.

Some stats seem absolutely useless, others make no sense, and navigating the complex menus is way slower than it should be. The game totally fails at making its mechanics discoverable from experimentation or logic.
