Final Fantasy XII: The Zodiac Age

[Strangelove]

i just remembered that since this is based on the izjs version it should include the trial mode which means you get to fight all of the judges including the ones that weren't fightable in the original

 

[Fangu]

Oh gods, the Trials. I think I got to level 33 or something X) But then again I didn't know you have to do all of them in one go, with all your resources and HP and MP having to last through all of them.

 

[Strangelove]

weren't there some checkpoints you could restart from, or was that just save points?

i don't think ever finished the whole lot either

 

[Claymore]

This is really nice news. Though XII isn't one of my favourites, it's going to be great to play this version, since I've not touched the game since the original release.

 

[Fangu]

Save points, aye. The Trials are notorious for a reason

 

[Lex]

Yikes

 

[Tennyo]

I never minded the some what muffled/tinny/in a tunnel sound of the voice track in XII. I find it kind of endearing and fitting.

Other than that it looks gorgeous, though. <3

 

[Tetsujin]

Could be they just haven't gotten around to implementing all the HQ audio tracks yet...otherwise it would be ridiculous considering high quality voice audio was literally one of the bullet points for this game.

 

[Strangelove]

please don't mess up the japanese audio at least, as far as i recall that sounded fine

i can't remember what the lip synch was like but pls don't let what happened with kingdom hearts 1.5 hd happen again, where half seemed to be japanese and half english

SET OF 5 STATIC ARTS BUSTS

I MUST HAVE THEM.

 

[Lex]

Those are super pretty <3

 

[Flare]

OH MY LORD THOSE BUSTS <3

 

[Lulcielid]

From people who played the XII demo, the compressed audio (dialogue) is still in the remaster.

 

[Tennyo]

oh lord those busts

Kay, I have to bring this up. I know you enjoy posting news, and that's great, everyone likes to keep current. But this is the fourth occurence in the past week of you bringing up something like it's news when it's been posted not three or four posts ago. Just... read before you post, eh?

 

[lithiumkatana17]

oh lord those busts

I like big busts and I cannot lie.

Sorry, that joke was begging to be made.

Article from Gamespot:

In short, it appears that producer Hiroaki Kato and director Takashi Katano, who both worked on the original game, have said developers are contemplating returning to Ivalice in a new installment or even making a completely new game--using the Gambit system.

And they want to know if that is something fans are interested in.

They've said they would be open to another XII installment, provided fan feedback on The Zodiac Age is good.

So, uh... how much I have to pay ya'll to leave good reviews??

Just kidding.

But if a possibly sequel were to be anything like the story they had planned for Fortress, I'd have to pass on that.

 

[Tennyo]

I would be down for more games with XII's battle system, yes.

SE just do it and take my money.

 

[Flare]

Another game in Ivalice with that battle system? Ohhh I'm definitely interested <3

Not to rain on anyone's parade, but they said the same thing about X and let's not even on-purpose consciously remember what happened there.

I'm not. Believe me, I'm trying hard not to.

 

[Ghost X]

A new Ivalice installment? *fanboys* I don't care if my dreams will eventually be crushed .

 

[Tennyo]

That's the spirit, Ghost!

I would rather prefer SquareEnix making new installments in the franchise.
