Final Fantasy Tactics - The War of the Lions

I always wanted to make a custom character :/ I know theres some program but honestly I like the psp version a lot due to new characters and few fixes/new jobs. I always wanted main character to be Holy Knight lol, but I guess Agrias and Orlandu are enough.

Pretty much the reason I stopped playing it around the half-way point.

They took a slow-paced game, and made it even slower.......on a fucking handheld, with no mid-battle saving. It felt like they put all the budget towards the new FMVs and retranslation than making the game more mobile friendly like Disgaea's handheld ports.

If you can put up with the battle animation slowdowns, all the more power to you as it is a great game, but I absolutely couldn't stand grinding when it took forever to do simple tasks to raise JP.

BEST part of the original fft

Absorb power in the sky and strike, Lightning stab!

I never played the PS1 version, so the lag didn't seem that bad for me. I wonder if you get the PSN version, if it makes things a bit faster.

Also Balthier is so fucking broken. His steal success rate is supposedly a lot higher than thieves, and he gets all of mustadio's abilities on top of his ridiculously high speed.

Nobody has anything on Orlandu!

Or Black Mage with Calculate... jeez that stuff was ridiculous.

Does the download on the PSN for PS3 have the same issue?

**Julian** · 2010-09-04 21:37

The PSP remake carries the slowdown issues, DLing the PS1 version should be fine.

Ironically, the PS1 version played on a PSP should have no slowdown issues.

PSX version on PSP runs full speed.

Here's a comparison vid. Granted, he's using an actual PSX ISO via CFW vs. the PSN release (didn't exist in NA store when the vid was shot), but should be the same shit:

Left - PSX FFT
Middle- EN PSP FFT
Right- JP PSP FFT

From what I remember, it's precisely a 50% slowdown across the board with any battle-related action. It's annoying as even the sound isn't in sync.

I have it on PS1 still and naturally can run it on my ps2... but it just looks like utter shit on my 47" screen haha

No, its a direct port of the PSX version. I wish they'd do a war of the lions for PSN, but I'm afraid they'd throw the lag in there as well.

Someone wanna explain to me what the 1.3 patch does?

A lot of those changes are pretty terrible imo.

Good. Ironically I won a PS3 and the first thing I want to play is Tactics...

**Lucavi** · 2010-09-05 12:48

No gained JP up? Fail.

**Pirian** · 2010-09-06 00:34

God damn this thread. I knew I brought FFT with me for a reason ~.~ Still most likely my favorite game ever

**Apelila** · 2010-09-08 01:31

The notes for FFT 1.3 read like a version update from hell. Seriously, some stuff sounds awesome while others...not so much.

Though the thought of making a patch of FFT with the WoTL script but no slowdown...mmmm, i can't wait to get those CD"s out of storage.

Seriously. Increasing the need to grind =/= increase in difficulty. That's just annoying.

**Lucavi** · 2010-09-09 11:23

I like some changes, like storyline fights scaling with your own levels, but some of the most fun I have in FFT is grinding the shit out of my non-ramza party early on, inviting random enemy humans, stealing their loot and booting them out, and having chapt 3-4 gear by the Algus battle.

Some of these changes make that neigh impossible. i wish we could toggle on and off what we want, because theres a lot of good meat in there.
