Happy Friday gamer friends from #hivegaming a few hours after starting the weekend to take them to play and play, anyway here I am starting my day with a special post, where I will talk about a video game from my childhood, my favorite final fantasy or at least one of my favourites, it is about TACTICS, one that some know about, others that don't, but for me it is a total gem and after 20 years I am taking it back from 0
like all final fantasy this is from squaresoft before it became square enix, this final fantasy maintains the concept of turn-based actions, but adding something else and that is that you can move like chess pieces around the battle map, the range of possibilities is wide and varies according to the character, job (this is very important and it is now as an adult that I found out) and the improvements that you make to the character each time you acquire points or level up
I am playing this game in its version of PSP EMULATED TO THE PC each of the images are taken by screenshot
In my childhood I cheated since I played it with gameshark, does anyone remember it? hahaha for me it was the only way since not only my understanding was short in the sense of how the character improvement mechanics were unlike other final fantasy that simply improved alone and what you helped to improve were simpler things
As for the story, for me it is super complex and it is the one that is full of the most betrayals in the franchise, practically no one can be trusted within this final fantasy, sudden changes occur in the story, for a moment you think that only They are battles between factions, then between kingdoms and empires, then everything is more complicated with SOMETHING REFERRING TO THE SIGNS OF THE ZODIAC (I won't give spoilers if you haven't played it but if the zodiac signs complicate everything)
As I had commented in my childhood I played with gameshark so leveling characters was not very necessary and here you realize that to advance in the story and not lose good characters that you have worked on you have to level them so they don't die in the next stage
You will lose your characters that die in battle that are not part of the story and you do not revive them, for example a knight in which you have invested time so that he increases in power and ability and improves if he dies on the battlefield and you do not revive him in you will lose it, luckily when playing it on pc there is a certain advantage or trap since you can save from time to time and see if it was a mistake or not to enter said mission and thus improve them as far as possible before entering and thus not lose them
