Final Fantasy 12
Long overdue i know, well i recently got into this game, i was thinking i probably wouldnt like because i read and heard the battle system is a bit like final fantasy 11s, which put me off somewhat, but its a really different game in some regards, yet samey in the others, the game has the large open enviroments of final fantasy 11, and the random, hit the monster, wait, hit back, hit the monster approach as done by final fantasy 11, thing is, i dont find this game boring.
The Opening scene, and from this moment onwards, this will seem spoilerific, so complain at your own discretion.
Basically it shows and tells about Arcadias invasion of Dalmasca, and eventually sees what we would call Basch, kill the king, obviously you find out that it wasnt Basch, but his twin brother but dang, i guess if i hadnt of read that Vaan was the main guy i would of assumed Reks was.
Reks fights off the soldiers, goes to join Basch or what he thought was Basch, gets stabbed, 30 minutes after the game starts and dies, Game over lol, Shortest game ever. well final fantasy =P
Alrighty, some key points
Reks was introduced, was playable, until dying
Vaan sneaks into the Palace after hearing Vaynes speach, he dislikes the way his town/people around him are treated, Penelo and him have lost their parents due to the war, he eventually meets Balthier/Fran, escapes, minor arguement, eventually seeing Amalia, gets captured by soldiers.. they escape.
Meet Basch, free him, he explains, Vaan hates on him, poor dude, his brother whos a judge is revealed to of killed the king, hes Baschs twin?
oh boy i can go on for like forever, the game has a lot of key points in my opinion, thats probably somewhat 15 percent into the game, i like Ashe, shes actually not that bad, yeah shes been through a great deal, losing the one she loved, almost other things, that and shes probably the hottest insurgent.. sorry freedom fighter that ever lived lol
im sure fran would disagree >_>..
so anyway i power leveled Vaan solo to level 13 before aquiring Penelo and everyone else into my party eventually, just meant i had around 800+ license points to speand which rocks, no idea which character needs what weapon im pretty much sticking with
Fran - Archer, Basch - Sword, Balthier - Gun(weak need to change) Vaan - Sword
planning on switching Fran to Katana when i aquire
im currently up to the Leviathan sky ship, after Ondore betrays you, hes actually a pretty smart guy, he obviously knew that the judges had Ashe held on that ship that went to arrest the party.. so he “betrayed” them but also helped them since he knew Basch is like awesome and he would totally own the Judge..
also, i totally thought that Basch killed the king like everyone else but i think your like meant to and stuff, you dont actually know Basch asides from that brief cutscene at the start, so hearing Basch say hes innocent and is like sorry all the time to Vaan about Reks makes him out to be a good guy, i mean, he sounds like, and seems like he wouldnt do that to the king.
i think deep down he rid himself of the king because he was going to surrender to the Arcadian empire cowardly much lol, still a bad thing to do… poor Basch being hated on because of his twin bro lol
Ashe is lol.. makes me laugh.. Vaan speaks.. DONT INTERUPT, infront of the bad guys
Ashe is <3
