Okay, shall do.

I was planning on playing a PSP game next. And since I'm already in a Matsuno mood (playing Crimson Shroud now) looks like it's Let Us Cling Together then. Looking forward to seeing if I enjoy it more than Final Fantasy Tactics or not. I mean, I loved FFT, if TO:LUCT can beat that, well... that's saying something right there.
PLAY KING'S FIELD.

personally I think Tactics Ogre is better than FFT. And yes, that is saying a lot.

I really like FFT, and prefer TO as well. I think the story is better, and I like having more units in battle. Canopus rules!

>I like having more units in battle

Yeah I just read the PSP version supports up to 18 simultaneous participants in battle. :lol:

4. Drakkhen (SNES)
5. Forgotten Realms: Demon Stone (PC)

So...which of these should I play?
Forgotten Realms, because I got it on OG Xbox and I want to know if I should play it. Also, it is one of the few on your list that I know, other than Drakkhen, which I thought was kinda boring when I tried it out 10 years ago.

Do note that the PSP version is pretty different from the SNES/PSX original. Both incarnations are pretty hard.

The game is 10x better than FFT with real branching storyline paths and alternate scenarios. It does not lose its steam in the later half and does not have overpowered special named units that break the game. And like pointed out above, it's so much more fun having 10-18 (apparently on the PSP version like you said?) units per battle instead of FFT's average 4 or something.

Knight of Lodis on the GBA is extremely good as well. What did FFT give us? Something about snowballs and a judge rule system... lmfao, awful. LOD is a 10x better option.

I agree that Tactics Ogre is way better than Final Fantasy Tactics, but I personalyl adored Final Fantasy Tactics Advance and A2. They were much better focused than the FFT and actually using a party you bothered to customise was favoured over just using Orlandeau like in FFT.

:lol: wasn't Orlandeau the guy that had "Dark Sword" or something that did hundreds of damage while absorbing/healing from it all as well? Mr Gameshark unit.

One thing you're gonna miss out on Exhuminator is SNES Sakimoto...

But here's the best song if you were curious:


FFT DEAD!

(sorry guys I don't like FFT much hahaha. Played and beat it like 3 times and I don't get it. I think the other main FF games and other Matsuno titles destroy it).
