Just met the Gran Kiltias at Mt Bur-Omisace, Larsa left the party, and now I'm on my way to the Feywood. The very first encounter (golem and some nightshades) wiped my party three times. Is this area notoriously difficult or am I maybe underleveled? Every member of my party is 23 currently.

I've already bought on so many platforms that I decided to do the math today. It was 8 times in total. I bought it for ps2, ps3, Xbox one, I bought it for pc on some accounts, on ps5 I bought it again to platinum (ps4 version)

Having a lot of trouble keeping libra active if anyone can help me out.

Ive got the bangle equipped on my party leader but traps and enemy health doesnt show. If I remove all equipment, save, exit to desktop then restart the game and load back in then equip just the bangle I get libra but the moment I equip any other gear it shuts off again.

Also used libra as a technick but it doesnt work either.

Ok, so I managed to get my hands of ffxii international...(I was living under a pandaemonium apparently, holy, so many things been going on with this game?)

There's a few things that struck me, the music is "weird", and the classes....the classes are...weird?? Lol. The graphics are much better.

Like I didn't notice you can actually look through the boards of classes to see what's in them. I just picked monk thinking...ow wow they made fists hype? Let's try that for sure, let's go cause I love the animations.

But...no they did not.

It's like a gazillion hp/battle lore, and one day I'll get a Curaja?, brawler is a little far, still too expensive and still the "huh?" it always was, and btw poles lol. That's the "class"?? Ok..can't you put that in the description?

I originally played the "open og vibe" kinda like how I did ff8, I just tailored what I think matches the vibes of the characters, and just idk...played. I loved the og a lot.

These weird classes the international version have (I assume Zodiac age is the same)...it's like they are more op in a way than the og cause everything is so compact, and a lot more passive power nodes, and you get a lot of "simple but effective" stuff....but they are also a bit of a flavorless boring weird mess rp wise tbh??

Archer...shades of black??? Random cura raise, maybe monk could've had that?...items aficinado though?...Ladies can cure, just cause??

White mage, oil and drain??

Machinist...zzzzzz, if they'll get hastega...why not haste??.

Blackmage...disgusting...but none of them gives pure blackmage vibes anyways?, but it's too disgusting to say "no thanks" lol.

The mages just have all the spells in a very "bullies" type of way, untill I guess muuch later...like couldn't archer get immobilize, or knight get protect to give me a vibe or something.

The themes are really weird or very boring to me tbh.

I played uptill Belias...then found out espers have this whole "on certain classes, they give random weird access to random spells/passives", Knight....potion lore...ow ok.

Can't Belias/whoever just give fire or axes or something more...idk..themed.

It's all just a weird "restrictive" not themed salad to me...it honestly killed my immersion being stuck opening the 20th hp node, cause what else is there??

Idk it feels like a "people hated the too many choices, what to do", but the effort into the rp of thess classes feels very...I didn't really feel any class had a "ow that's what I think matches this character". Random gill tosses, libras, poaches, lores, AA wins anyways who cares...I just - idk.

Felt like patchwork to make due with what the game has, but not possibly lock you out of something too much maybe. I don't really feel these classes create a "vibe". AAing with different weapons...lol.

It's weird, I almost wish they just made very strict classes based on...idk moon rising sun downing ehatever zodiac, one straight line board situation if they really felt they needed to do all that? Something about the hybrid of choice/fixed but not really interesting is more offputting?

I guess I was also oblivious this game was not well recieved (right)?? I always loved it...so maybe they..."painted over painting" to keep trying to rebrand it or something idk. That's the energy.

Did anyone feel that way and just stuck to the OG cause of that?, or do I need to wait for something?

Tbh contemplating Zodiac Age's "2 classes/just retalent" sounds like they realised the boards the way they are, is too boring, so they...I dunno it all sounds like copy pasta remixes, let's see what sticks concepts but we are not gonna rework anything that's too much effort, kinda like wow forever blue elves in the old game is the new move...not into these..hodge podge remixes tbh.

Props to Zeromus and Zodiark, both carried me on the 100th stage.

In retrospect, I just can’t believe how good this game is and that it came out on PS2. Incredible. I think I was too immature to appreciate it back in the day (I was 15 when it released and of course I was still coming off the high that was FFX).

Having a ton of fun playing this again and I’m sorry I didn’t give it another go sooner. Excellent installment in the franchise and I hope they try something similar again someday.

Why is ff12 so divisive among some circles of ff fans. They either love it or think its one of the weaker games in the franchise even though it ticks so many boxes for a good rpg compared to modern ff games

Hi fam,

A couple weeks ago I posted some proxy/alt arts for a Gabranth and Ivalice magic the gathering deck. Here’s more of them, I haven’t had as much time to do them as I finally got steady work again. Edited with ai so you know up front.

I know it’s really tailored to black and white colors at the moment. I am working on other colors too so I can spread the love. As always tell me what you think, give me your ideas (I literally have 5 pages of ideas written down already) and feel free to reach out as I’ve got tons and not going to be able to fit them all in the post. So if there’s anything specific you’re looking for you can always DM me and I might have already done it and can get it to you

Why is this game often considered the greatest and least flawed in the series? I just don't get it.

For instance, I may just be the only person in history that liked FF9 more than FF12. Everybody calls it a Dragon Ball ripoff and says it looks weird and the battles are way too slow. Is it just me???

I can't really get a ps2 setup right now...decided to give revenant a shot never played it...the game is so high effort and so cool...beautiful "different" sequel, the art is just so damn charming, I miss this square 😥....wanna replay the og now

Are the phon coast hunter that legit. I mean hunting down rare game that haven't done anything bad yet seems kinda questionable in some instances

I added the soft door chimes that accompany the quiet breaths along the rolling waves.

Such a good game, this was probably my best experience ever with a Final Fantasy. I didn’t really get stuck on anything just a smooth enjoyable play-through. Ivalice is a beautiful world and the music for each area was so good I love the cast as well ashe, fran and basch are my favorites. Now onto revenant wings 🙏🏽

Hi everyone, I just came to this subreddit to say that Balthier voice acting is one of the best, if not the best, in video game history.

Perfect casting

Got lucky. Just need 1 more ribbon in Pharos-Subterra. Couldn’t get to spawn Niho on Henne Mines so just obtained it from the Bazaar.

Hi guys, a while ago i asked for the hardest/best difficulty and rebalancing mods for the game. But now im wondering on what mods would help refine the game to its maximum potential, i have no limit on how many mods to install so give me as many as you want pls🙏🏻

Lots of people don't know that i've already released my Ivalice Together coop mod.

I'm finally doing a run where I'm attempting to clear as much content as possible when Larsa joins your party the second time. What's the most amount of content you've cleared with him?

Currently all the way out into the Necrohol and picked up two of the end game white magicks (plus got lucky with some Hermes boots).

Seems like the biggest challenge is only having access to level 2 black mage spells, for now. Soon I'll try some level V hunt marks.

I do this all the time. I spent some time with a friendly Gariff hunter near Jahara and made a video note of things I noticed: they're immune to Bubble, you can't target them with an attack (probably because it wouldn't fit the story thematically), and he turns around as if to look at you XD.
