final fantasy 8 is in pc too........i still wonder how it got rated rilli low and the ps version got rated rilli high.....they just converted the game so that its playable for pc rite? or did they make some changes in the actual game?
PC RPG's are among my favourite games of all time. Here are some which I really enjoyed and highly recommend:
Baldurs Gate II: Shadows of Amn Neverwinter Nights Knights of the Old Republic Knights of the Old Republic II Icewind Dale I & II
As you may have noticed, I am quite the Bioware enthusiast. Every game they have released, with the exception of Jade Empire, (which I didn't like that much), has been a work of art and truly brilliant.
i dont like games where you control only one character......i like teamworkkzero_cool098
Baldurs Gate II and Icewind Dale I & II feature greater teamwork based gameplay then most FF games to date. With the possible exception of Final Fantasy Tactics. Neverwinter Nights, KOTOR I & II both detracted from this style, by focusing on a single character at a time that you could move between. It was a bit of a step backwards from the overhead controls of BG2, but you can still implement quite a bit of strategy. Kingdom Hearts took this approach to it's battle system as well. I think, for some people, it is more comfortable controlling a "central" character which your other characters support using AI. I don't endorse it thuroughly as I like being able to control each of my characters individually if needed. That's just personal preference though.
Note: BG2 does contain more strategic team-based gameplay then most FF games: you control six characters at once, in realtime, (other then when the game is paused), which all need to complement each other well in order to prove victorious over some of the game's tougher encounters. Battles in BG2, regardless of difficulty level, are harder than FF's. I think that's fairly widely known. This is not the case for all Bioware games.
its not that i care alot about strategy i just want to control more than 1 player(minimum 3 actually)....dats y i want ffXII badlyzero_cool098
I'm looking forward to it too. Have they announced anything about the battle system? I'm hoping they've used the Final Fantasy Tactics battle system as a model; because, that battle system rocked!
i never played IX or XI so ill have to see how good this is.....but u know wat i like it already....one out of a thousand reasons i have is that theres no RANDOM BATTLES
Praise be to Yevon. Well actually no, I hate Yevon. But a very hurray nevertheless! A Final Fantasy without Random Battles would be awesome. I can't wait, any news on the release date?
