Is 12 any good? I've never played it but that story sounds good. I love pirates

MODERATORS
Its not super well regarded but I really like it. Battle system is controversial. Leveling system is as well (i think they tweaked it in the remaster and that was better recieved). Plot is good to me but the playable cast is a mixed bag. But Ashe and Balthier are awesome.
Id say give Zodiac Edition a try.
Very good overview. I really liked XII, but i understand the criticisms of it. They did fix the leveling in the remaster which makes the game way easier than the original PS2 version
It's got a great aesthetic and is honestly my favorite battle system, though I wish they'd gone further.
You get to "program" the AI of your party members using simple conditionals.
The remastered version has a much needed fast forward.
I do t like the battle system, it's like playing an mmo offline.
12 is my favorite out of all of them. Really enjoyed the setting and voice, and I think the graphics are charming. Great music too
I found the story of the game to be lackluster which was disappointing because it's a series known for telling some good pop fantasy stories. Gameplay is fun though setting up your characters to fight, it's like an online turn based rpgs fighting is, like XI, like someone else pointed out. If you like that sort of thing you could check out XI too since there's private servers now that emulate the game's trust system that lets npcs fight alongside you.
Don't listen to Ondore's lies!
Yasumi Matsuno (of Tactics Ogre, Final Fantasy Tactics, and Vagrant Story directing fame) was originally going to direct it, but had to drop out due to health issues. If you like his stuff, you'll probably enjoy it enough.
The guy who says "No arguments here man" got me lol
I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:
I really enjoy it. Story isn't that great, and it feels more in the background compared to the exploration and combat. That said Balthier is one of the best FF characters ever.
Award winning Heavensward expansion
They have since expanded the free trial to include Stormblood.
And if the pattern continues, the even more critically acclaimed expansion Shadowbringers (one of the best Final Fantasy stories ever).
The FF14 and SWtOR sickos always get so close to tricking me into playing an MMORPG
Btw if you are attracted to Kuja you are gay, regardless of your gender.
Jenova's theme is still awesome.
Kain was totally an incel. I heard he gets better in After Years, but I haven't played it despite loving FF4
Wait, was VIII about time traveling? Why I don't remember that?
Why I don't remember that?
You junctioned too many GFs
Blitzball sucks and I will die on this hill.
