Explain why you don't like FF XII without using the words Vaan, MMO combat and Star Wars rip-off.

automatic gameplay
plot is similar in structure to harry potter

Because the game lets me choose to let it play itself for me and it also lets me choose to make all the characters the same and I am too autistic to just not use the gambits and to make the characters different
>>
But on the contrary, OP, I love FFXII. IZJS is the best game in the series.

The main character is annoying and pointless and the fight system blows.
>>
>>330239980
zero rewards for exploring same-looking maze like environments
>>
>>330240883
Look into the IZJS version, solves half of your issue.
>>
Final fantasy has the worst writing and character design I've ever seen. Tries to play VII, XI. XIII and lightning returns and the series just makes me sick
>>
>>330241162

XII would be worth trying, then, because it has the best English translation in the series by far. The character designs are a little more down to earth (although some are still ridiculous)
>>
License board
Gambits
Automated attacking

>>330239980
What's the deal with all the pictures of Penelo fucking Vieras?
Is it a meme that I missed?
>>
>>330239980
I don't play MMOs

>>330241162
Hello, anon! You don't know anything about writing! Stop thinking that you do, ok?
>>
>>330239980
>without
Why?
>>
>>330241762

Its a good thing FFXII is not an MMO, then.
>>
>>330239980
TOO. FUCKING. LONG.
>>
>>330239980
>Star Wars rip off.
SW faggots are such insufferable virgin spergs. Love telling them their galactic shitfest is a ripoff of Kurosawa's Hidden Fortress.
>>
>>330240883
>and I am too autistic to just not use the gambits and to make the characters different
That's not autism, that's just plain ol' retardation
>>
turn off gambits fucking niggers
>>
>>330239980
I accepted one of the tavern quests to kill a giant wolf thing, and it was going fine until half hp where he just decides to one shot me from far away. Dropped it there.

this still doesn't make the game fun

I loved it. Wish the summons were more useful but at least they were cool looking.

>>330241803

I can tell when a game is meandering between plot points that never made sense in the first place

There's more of these?

How did they went from these to Lightning in just one game?

Plenty from different artist.

how?

>>330241162
I'll give you lightning returns and FFVII, but the other are written perfectly fine you fucking sperg

They didn't. The characters in 12 weren't actually sexy. Fran was the closest they came, but their design teams did something horrible to the faces and the fleshy parts didn't have a really natural look to them. The anatomy was weird.

Other reasons the game sucked was that the pacing was terrible, the protagonists were unlikable, the license system was tedious without really adding much. Having such limited control over battles made it difficult to feel invested in them, and there were a lot of other issues. When I tried playing this, I instantly got lost down an endless stream of sidequests and eventually couldn't even remember what I was supposed to be doing anymore. Something about a revolution.
>>
I didn't like because of the fighting system and because you could completely remove 3 character of the team and would make no difference in the main story.

Whatever, they still had ass unlike lightning.

Making love in a back alley is a more sexy premise. It's like the characters are so into each other they'd risk doing that just to get some satisfaction.

These artists are both pretty good, though. Although the second one seems under the impression that everybody is made of shiny polymer or something.

>>
>>330243020

Nice
>>
>>330244487
There's casually fucking and then there's having enough faith and trust in someone that you'd let them to finger you in public while you try to maximize body contact. What they're doing in that picture looks like making love to me. In a back alley.
>>
I really liked it overall but one thing I hated was the randomized chest loot

I guess that falls under MMO gameplay though
>>
Has a bunch of unique races but none of them are party members.
>>
>>330240715
Number 1 is a bad thing if you're a puritanical prude. Vaan sucks though.
>>
>>330239980
I had no real interest in the story for the 4 or 5 hours I tried to play it. Audio quality is fucking awful from all the compression. Battles were actually putting me to sleep.
>>
Who has the best Square Enix ass, Edea or Penelo?
>>
>>330246101
Edea is literally perfect in every way.
>>
>>330239980
>Penelo.
>Shitting on the Ivalice setting by turning it into some pseudo-arabian tripe, instead of the gritty medieval setting it was originally.
>Not enough focus on Ashe, as she was the clear protagonist
>>
>>330246587
>It's not muh cliche medieval european setting therefore is bad.
fuck off eurofags.
>>
It always felt like the interesting stuff was happening elsewhere.
>>
>>330246587
>pseudo-arabian
It was clearly Mediterranean
>>
>>330247130
don't expect amerifats understand what's that.
>>
>>330239980
Grind fest
Forgettable characters
Gambit system sucks
>>
>>330239980
Atrocious pacing.
>>
>>330239980
Being an offline MMO is actually one of the things I like about FFXII.

Wish there were more games that tried doing that.
>>
>>330239980
Gambits. If I wanted the game to play for me, I might as well just watch a youtube playthrough.
>>
desu lad i rate it as one of the top 3 games ever made

resi 4, okami, ffxii

the holy trinity of games

funny how theyre all japanese huh
>>
>>330247330
Xenoblade
Mass effect
Dragon age inquisition
>>
>>330247330
Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning
>>
>>330247632
i guess you havent played any of those games

got pretty close with xenoblade though
>>
>>330239980
I really enjoyed XII.
I wish they remastered it because I don't feel like hooking up my ps2 to play.
>>
>>330241732
Literally one person commissioning that couple. In the same vein that some faggot keeps commissioning stuff of LoL couples like ZacxRiven and such.
>>
>>330247848
Emulate it. The game looks great at 1080p
>>
>>330247848

Worked great on emu last time I played it.
>>
>>330240948
I don't know if I'd call it best, but it is damn good.
