FINAL FANTASY XII THE ZODIAC AGE

Star Wars Fantasy: The Auto Battler Age. We got street rat Luke, posh Han Solo, sexy Chewbacca, dull Princess Leia and... the other two with barely any dialogue. Something, something, something, empire. The game looks and sounds great, it's just a shame they went and strayed away from the classic formula. It plays like the early stages of an MMO with added faff. The license system means picking each characters role for them and blindly upgrading your way through arbitrary perks. Most of the perks being the ability to equip weapons, accessories, armours and spells; many of which can't be purchased until much later. Then there's the gambit system which requires coding the character actions yourself. Fine as an optional extra but the AI is useless without it. As a result, the party feels like a group of soulless robots. I've given up after becoming far too underleveled. Note that I've been playing at x4 speed with very few drawbacks. You can save yourself even more time by watching the cutscenes on youtube.

Incredible game.

Crazy that a large number of ported ff games crash and have issues. This time its fatal error. I'd rather sail the high seas and get it other ways if I have to to debug a video game I paid money for in good faith. L Sqaure Enix

this game sucks really bad. job system bad. Ai system horrible. auto attack everything. zero fun this should not be called final fantasy......rest in peace square soft. rest in peace.

"I liked it." - 3 out of 5 rating. Another great Final Fantasy experience! As with most RPG's, it's "all about the journey" and often times the endings fall short of all the experiences built up that got you there. Unfortunately FF12 fits the mold, with an "everyone wins and happy people in happy land" ending that leaves you feeling pretty unsatisfied. Also per usual, all the love, time, and energy is baked into the front end of the game - with the final stretch being schedule, cost, and time constraints being pressed on the Devs... which you most certainly feel here. On top of that, some other key dislikes are: - Having to buy skills aka spells and techniques twice. Not only do you need to purchase them on the Job Board aka via the License system... you also need to buy the tech/spell from a vendor which you have to find and/or are story locked... with Gil on top of that as well. Not a fan. - Benched characters don't get experience, not even partial. So you here are your options... you either have to A) focus on your main line up (this is what I did) and you have 3 high level characters, with the others being low level and pretty much by the end of the game useless. I fin…

fun, imersive, entirely enjoyable.
