Yeah, in Japan only though, and it doesn't support English sadly.

Pretty hype. I would've preferred the Final Fantasy Tactics remaster came before it, but I'll take it regardless. But between both it makes me wonder how far along Unsung Story is? I know it was available in early access a couple years ago, but I haven't been following its progress.

Imo, Final Fantasy Tactics is overrated. I'll gladly take a remaster because maybe that could modernize it enough to feel playable. But my goodness, I couldn't stand War of the Lions. So slow and sluggish, just downright painful trying to play that game.

I've never played Tactics Ogre beyond the first hr or so (SNES VC inject on 3DS). But I hear it's fantastic. And definitely the inspiration behind Triangle Strategy, which I love.

It's unfortunate Valkyrie Elysium and Star Ocean The Divine Force aren't coming to Switch.

But there are so many other rpgs headed their way to Switch that...it isn't that disconcerting.

I can't remember the last good Star Ocean game so I'm not concerned about that. And Valkyrie Elysium doesn't look great. It seems alright, but nothing I feel Switch is "missing out" on.

All the ones that look really good are coming to Switch.

Valkyrie Elysium is why I am now looking for a PS5, but I'm just a fan of the series in general. Squeenix has really been churning this year. I wonder if dumping the western catalog had some effect. Black Friday is gonna be a massacre this year for me. To start I want a new TV (possibly a new av receiver ) and a PS5, and that is before I get to all the Switch games I have to buy. I hope I get a good bonus this year. Getting everything Squeenix is dropping this year.

Agreed. Aside from the Front Mission games (which are contract work from Forever Entertainment), every other game listed has my full attention.

I know the original impressions weren't good, but has anyone been using the Switch's built-in bluetooth audio, and is it really as terribad latent as it originally seemed?

Alt view from someone who doesn't spend $$$$ on A/V eqpt.... I use a pair of c.£20 Bluetooth no-brand pods from Amazon and have never noticed an issue. Only thing that annoys me about the setup is that Switch disconnects from them every time it enters sleep mode.

You guys had me at blood and semen.

What better way to celebrate than firing something out of the pipe?

I've been meaning to play War of the Lions for years, but I never did enjoy FFT on the PS1 (or the weird GBA/NDS sequels, for that matter). It was a big part of why I wasn't initially very excited for Triangle Strategy, although that actually turned out to be really fantastic.

I'll probably grab Tactics Ogre at some point when it's on sale, but there's already more than enough new stuff coming out this year that I'm not worried about re-heated PSP ports.

I'm more interested in Front Mission, although given how mediocre the port of the original was on NDS, my expectations aren't terribly high there, either. Will still grab it, though, since I've wanted to give the original another chance. And we'll finally have the ability to play an official localization of Front Mission 2.

What I really want is a remaster of PS1's Front Mission 3. Now THAT was an incredible game for its time.

I've never played Front Mission- in fact I'd never even heard of it until the remake was revealed.

I'll probably pick it up just to check it out- some ppl seem to speak highly of it. I guess we'll find out how good it is. Can't say I'm super hyped for it, but you never known. Some games surprise you...

I think Sunbreak rules out a Splatoon 3 Direct for next week. With how much Nintendo values MH, there's no way they're going to distract the focus on Sunbreak update 1 with Splatoon 3 news.

I spend my days waiting for Persona 5 Royal physical preorders to become available.

We're less than a few months away now.

Oi, I loved Final Fantasy Tactics Advance, @Ralizah .... & I liked Grimoir of the Rift a lot, too! What do you mean by 'weird', particularly?
Only got around to War of the Lions on Android but that's an amazing game, so I'm curious what put you off the original version, too?

Probably Star Ocean 2nd Evolution, @JaxonH .... I missed out on the others, though, so I've pre-purchased Divine Force for Steam & can let you all know what it's like?

@BruceCM
Sure. All I know is the last one was super mediocre. And the other one I got on Steam wasn't much better. It just strikes me as an incredibly average (maybe even below average) series. The graphics looked pretty good on the last one, almost reminiscent of Xenoblade. But the voice work, dialog, battle system, pretty much every aspect that matters, was subpar.

But ya. Let me know if you think this one is any different.

I really enjoyed playing FF Tactics on PS1 after I mastered all Math Skills and other magic spells from Wizard + White Mage + Oracle + Time Mage. With Math skills, I can strike the enemies with magic spells without using MP, without charging time and the magic spells will do more damage after I cast Faith on them (raising the magic attack but also lowering magic defense).

Last time I played FF Tactics PS1 in year 2005.
I still haven't find the right time to get FF Tactics PSP version to feed my nostalgic experience, it was 17 years ago I didn't play FF Tactics PS1.
I will also consider FF Tactics A2 NDS for different experience.

No good deed
Will I do
AGAIN...!!!
