Maybe in full HD we'll be able to determine definitively if anyone in Ivalice actually has a nose.

Not having a nose is probably an asset in a medieval war camp.

FF Tactics is a VR/XR dream port of mine. I’d love to see those battle arenas set up on my coffee table, with the ability to actually move the pieces around like chess.

I didn’t know I wanted this until just now.

[–] Eggyhead@lemmy.world 5 points 4 months ago

Absolutely. Imagine how cool summons and area magics would be when they light up your room.

Not quite the same, but Demeo in VR might scratch that itch.

[–] Eggyhead@lemmy.world 2 points 4 months ago

With a mere 100 days left on my PS+ Extra subscription, an upgrade to Premium tier for the remaining time was just $5. That netted me both Saints & Sinners games for PSVR2 as well as a few others, including a 1 hour free trial of Demeo, which I fully intend to take advantage of.

Mostly newsworthy because Matsuno said last year there were no plans for it. The bigger news for me is Schreier saying down-thread that Naoki Yoshida's team is on the project. I was concerned Asano's might be, and I don't want him anywhere near this.

I'd be deliriously happy with the Tactics Ogre Reborn treatment. A similarly arranged, orchestrated soundtrack is my #1 ask; I think this is still Sakimoto and Iwata's best work, and the PSX audio doesn't do the compositions justice. Additional animated cutscenes and additional dungeons/sidequests are probably not happening, but like in Reborn, high-quality voice overs and something small to mix up the gameplay or tweak the difficulty would be nice.

YESSSSSSS

I still play the GBA and DS ones, such beautiful games

[–] rezz@lemmy.world 3 points 4 months ago (1 children)

I forgot there was a DS one. It’s worth it compared to OG versions?

[–] Shardikprime@lemmy.world 1 points 4 months ago

I like the revamped graphics the most, the history its as all FFT, emotional at times and makes you care about the characters too much. The replay value keeps being high as you have many random missions popping up all the time so you always have something to do

[–] sartalon@lemmy.world 3 points 4 months ago

One of my all time favorite games.

Just a high res port of the original I can play on my PC would be enough for me.

[–] njm1314@lemmy.world 3 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Bring back the original translation please.

[–] zero_spelled_with_an_ecks@programming.dev 8 points 4 months ago (2 children)

Don't blame us. Blame yourself or God.

[–] Ashtear@lemm.ee 2 points 4 months ago

I got a good feeling!
