Is this the most overrated Final Fantasy?
>>
That's not VII.
>>
No 12 is pretty divided on whether people like it or not.
>>
Nah, that will always be VI, VII, and IX. XII does have some really insufferable fans though, always insisting that you just didn't get it, rather than the game being horribly flawed and incomplete.
>>
>>337391771
It's "different" but not overrated or bad.
Vaan sucked
>>
>>337391771
6 > 7 > 12 > everything else

It had its problems but was a fun game. Best gameplay of all the FFs.

Fran and Balthier should have had their own game.

More like underrated.

At least the story line didn't feel like it was written by an angsty teenager.

Not really. But its few fans really overrate it.

>But its few fans really overrate it.
how
>>
>>337395418
By basically saying it's the single best and only good JRPG.

Basically, most of the vocal FFXII fans I know are insufferable.
>>
>>337395294
The massive influx of IXfags on this board are grounds enough for it to be considered overrated these days
>>
>>337395509
That's every FF fan for it's respective game, and every fan for it's respective game in general. Numerically XIIfags are outnumbered anyway so you should at least be picking a louder majority to call insufferable
>>
>>337395689
Eh, I don't really know. Most of the other FF will call basically every other game than their favorite overrated, but not usually shit.
FF XII is the only one for which I know people to actively say other FF are outright shit.

Well, FF VI fans are insufferable as well.
>>
Please don't port this to PC, Square.

From what I've seen, you have that reversed.
Most VIIfags just keep to themselves and almost never start fights. Last time I saw VIIfags shit on another game was around 2007-2009. Meanwhile, even when nobody even brought up VI, somebody has to be all "Kefka is the best JRPG villain evar! Sephiroth suks!"
>>
Overrated?
About 50% or even more of the people who play it think it's total garbage.
it is

VII>VI for overated game.

>>337397089
This. VIfags are honestly the worst. Any time the words Final Fantasy are brought up, they'll be there instantly going, "VI was the best!" "Okay, but we were talking about this one fight in XII..." "Who cares about that shit! VI is the only good FF!"
>>
>>337397275
Wrong. In terms of overrating, it goes VI > VII > XII > IX > V and from there on it doesn't matter because every other FF game will get an equal or greater number of people telling you how shit that game is.
>>
>>337397635
i can't see how XII is this overated. Besides some few people, it's literally forgotten or not played because "it's not like the previous entry", "it's a final fantasy game" etc...
>>
>>337397914
>"it's a final fantasy game
"it's not...""the summons are different" etc...
>>
>>337397260
This, you either love it or hate it. I'm in the latter camp, as it is irredeemable trash, even with Zodiac
>>
>>337397914
Because the people who don't care about that game (ie, the majority) aren't going to bother posting about it. It's only the people who think it's the hottest shit since sliced jesus that will talk about it, and they'll yell from the rooftops about how it's the greatest game of all time.
>>
>>337398118
well, in that case, Final fantas Tactics is more overated than FFXII.
>>
yep
I liked the combat but the story is lowest of the low tier
>>
>>337398225
Tactics actually has merit though, so it can't be more overrated than XII

Accurate.

Top tier soundtrack (Sakimoto is underrated)
Top tier world
Top tier art direction
One of the best looking game on PS2
Top tier Gameplay
shit story, can easily be forgotten when you deal with the wolrd (Quest, exploration, Yazmat/Omega etc)
Some shit character like Vaan and the useless Penelo.

Also, it has one the best english voice acting in video games IMO
>>
>>337398270
But anon, it was the first famous walking simulator
>>
>>337398497
>Tactics actually has merit though
It does, and I would say it has more merit than XII, but it also has flaws, and Tactics fans refuse to admit those. Even the staunchest FFXII fan will admit that the game has some flaws.
>>
>>337398627
Too bad about the odd sounding compression. I think my other big disappointment with the game, was how pointless the non-human races were. They might as well have gone with an all human world.
>>
>>337398627
>Top tier Gameplay

Look anon I like the game as well and all but lets not start making false statements here
>>
Final Fantasy VII > Final Fantasy X > Final Fantasy VI > Final Fantasy XIII >Final Fantasy XII > Final Fantasy IX > Final Fantasy IV > Final Fantasy Tactics > Others

I can see FFXV being overated.
>>
Did IZJS add anything except for the jobs?
I like games where my characters can eventually do everything so I really didn't like it.
>>
>>337399095
ADB was a great evolution even though it can be boring sometimes if you're used to action game like KH and soon FFXV.

Xenoblade Chronicles reused the ADB by improving it.
>>
>>337399619
>IZJS
i never played but i heard it's easier, Summons less useless since you can control them and the most OP character Larsa is controllable too. License board a shit though because you're stuck when you chose a class.
>>
>>337399640
I may have to try Xenoblade since I really liked the concept of the gameplay in XII but it never felt like it really got that deep

I quite enjoyed it however since there was no endgame dungeon and it's really frustrating to level up past 70+ I give the game 8.7/10

I know the monster hunts add lots of content and give you things to do however an RPG without final FINAL boss and an endegame dungeon is like a pizza without any toppings...

>inb4 I like my pizza without toppings
>inb4 food analogy
FUCK YOU

>>337395326
I mean 10/10-2 came out today so yeah...

It's so sad no one bothers defending XIII anymore.

It's not even up to discussion how disappointing that was compared to the other games.
>>
Who was the main character, the ignorant faggot we were forced to watch the story through or one of the three cooler characters who actually drove the plot forward?
>>
did they add something in order to teleport from a place to an another in ZJS?

If you want to see retardation, bring up final fantasy

6 is the most overrated game by a huge degree

no your tastes are just complete garbage. XIII was the only game that was boring enough for me to fall asleep while playing it.
>>
>>337391771
No that would be VIII. The fact that crock of diarrhea even has a following at all is too much. Fucking nostalgiatards.

But XII is overrated too though, also the most boring as fuck game I've ever played with the most retarded leveling system I've ever seen. I've heard the Zodiac edition fixes this but unless Square Enix decides to bring it over I guess I'll never know for sure.
>>
I love how this game has the best and more usefull buffs in the FF series, too bad it has the worst active skills too.

Only on 4chan and that's only because FF9 is decent. So when /v/ has massive circlejerks overrating these two games at least FF9 has a thin patch of ground to stand on.

Not that I expect anyone here to really know for sure, but I still feel like asking.

Were the people who helmed FFXII's production, deliberately sidelined after the game's release? The last time Yasumi Matsuno worked on a game for a home video game console was last decade with MadWorld. Since then he's only worked on games for handheld consoles and smartphones. Hiroyuki Ito has pretty much only had any significant involvement in smartphone games since FFXII, though he's gotten a few special mentions in credits over the years. Minagawa has been involved in some major projects since FXII, such as being on the team that developed FXIII's game engine, and then later he would be called in to fix the UI of FFXIV. But since his work with FFXII he hasn't gotten to work on a home video console in a key creative position.

I dunno, I think it's weird that these people seem kinda peripheral ever since 2007.
>>
>>337400513
Main Characters are Ashe and Basch without a doubt. They just needed more characters to fill out the roster it seems. Game wouldve been GOAT if it started you out as Balthier and Fran.
>>
>>337407636
Vaan has more air time and dialogue than both of them so no.
>>
>>337407707
Whether you want to believe it or not is your problem bro. Its clear as day from the story being told through out the game. Quit being a fag.

You're making shit up to suit your parrot argument.

Vaan is the MC, deal with it.

I never got why people shat on Vaan and Penelo for being bland and uninteresting when honestly the other characters aren't much better, especially Basch.

How's the soundtrack? I've only played mainline FF's with Uematsu being the main composer (that is, 4-10) and can't imagine FF without his music.

It's literally the only thing keeping me from playing this game. I want to listen to a memorable soundtrack instead of your typical orchestrated "epic" music that is indistinguishable from other games.
