How complicated are Jeanne D'arc and Final Fantasy Tactics?

Im going on holiday and taking my PSP with me, im very new to SRPGs and was wondering how tough these games are to get a hang of.

Jeanne D'arc is very simple you'll have a set team in no time. Final Fantasy Tactics is hard and long.

Also just throwing it out there Disgea is a long and grinding tactic game as well.

FF isn't difficult, its just long and a battle takes a while. Never played Arc.

FF Tactics has incredible replay value.

I personally think you're going to need a FAQ with you, because there are like 50 classes.

Nonetheless, awesome game. Same with Jeanne D'arc and Disgaea. Definitely get Disgaea as well.

But to the guy that said it was hard? L2P.Ensif1991

You pretty much said the same in your post lol
"complicated, demanding ones brain"
I'm really eager to know what's your definition of a hard game.

I haven't played Jeanne D'arc but I've heard its a good SRPG to start with if you're new to the genre. The first time I played FFT (on the PS1) i had a hard time, it was still fun, I just got to some point where i couldnt beat the level and was stuck there for a long time. I think it was the first SRPG I played, but the first might have been Kartia for the PS1. I'm not completely sure, but it was either the first or second SRPG I played.

ok this is actually getting funny. You say the game is complicated, it needs one's brain and you still learned stuff about it by reading the guide even after maxing out all your characters' job levels and yet it's not a hard a game. And you also claim that you have never played a hard game before. I can't help but to come to conclusion that you don't know what's the definition of a hard game or let's say what most people call a hard game.

When I have to do each battle several times to come up with a startegy or when I have to do lots of leveling to get an edge in battles or when there are lots of info about each character to have in mind all the time, I think the game is hard. dunno about you.

Jeanne D'Arc is really easy compared to Final Fantasy Tactics-War of the Lions. FFT is hard at first, but after a while, you can get the hang of it. Both games are awesome.
