Tactics Ogre: Reborn

Played the Original, it's far more better than this sequel although it has some endgame content. the mechanics change a lot from the original.

I’ve beaten this game on PS1 multiple times, as well as one of the PSP versions, and I’m replaying it right now. ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥, it ages like fine wine s2. Aaaaaaaah.... Every piece of dialogue, every plot point, the characters and so on, they are all phenomenal. Each character has their own little world that can come crashing down depending on what happens during specific battles. And the coolest part? This damn thing was made in 1995.... 1995, you know what I mean? Meanwhile, there are games out there today costing 500 BRL that don't deliver even 0.1% of what this game offers in just one hour of play.

is good

The good news is: This is a tactical RPG with lots of different units and options that can keep you busy for a long time. The bad news is: I already know a lot of people are going to hate it. It's called 'Tactics'' Ogre, but this isn't the whole story. It takes the right strategy and knowledge. You have to play it very precisely, because your units can die, and you don't get them back. The guests are even worse. You want to keep them alive in spite of themselves, so you have to play it pretty much perfectly. You constantly have to be on your guard, which isn't the most fun. The tutorials and game systems overall could be better. At the start, I didn't even know how to rotate the camera. The interface is also very clunky. There are free games that are better. I've been looking through tutorials, and I don't even know how they open the menu's that they do or set up what they explain. This will make for a very rough start. I almost got stuck. I'm a bit further now and I now how and where to ''replenish'' my army. If you try it I do hope you will also find this, or you're just going to softlock yourself. Once you unlock more stuff it CAN be rewarding, but it will take some patience and…

This game is a master piece. Its soul crushing that a newer, flashy version, that keeps the same core mechanics and depth of the original has not been created yet. TACTICS OGRE 2!!! MAKE IT HAPPEN!!!

So good. 10/10
