I liked the part how the video was 21 minutes long, dedicated to the battle system, and he only did one sword attack the whole time.

Over the years, I've found that sometimes people can make the Gambit system seem more difficult than it really is, as well as waiting until the end to mention you don't have to use it.

Miguel: Each character can have TWO jobs!

Kallie: Ooh! Very modern!

Vaan was voiced by a backup dancer for Brittany Spears.
So if you thought his voice was a little effeminate, you were spot-on. :p

[Ragsonas]

If he really played it he would have noticed that one of the enemies was flying and then all the attacks made with non-distant weapons don't hit.

I love it, but the only problem with this game is that if our character wears a full plate set it still shows him in T-shirt and pants.

How the battle system works.... talk about everything but the battle system.

You can manually control/switch characters as well! Don't make it sound like you are just gonna sit there watching them

No GameSpot The Zodiac Age is not a "remake of the original" it's a remaster. How anyone can still not know the difference between the two after all these years absolutely baffles me.

I remember when my brother bought this game for me when i was a kid ahh man i beat the game 100% now I'm older wonder how tf i did it

If I was new to Final Fantasy and watched this video... this guy would make me never want to play the series

[ShiningArmor]

I'm sorry. Bal-the-ay? Do you really not know how to pronounce Balthier? It's a voiced game. His name is spoken so. many. times.

I know people didn't like Gambit, but I always used them on 2 characters and kept one in party I fully controlled

[beepist]

I liked to play this game like vanille persona 3. Where I choose all actions for my main character (disable gambits on player controlled charater). while keeping gambits on for other party members. Makes the combat feel a little less robotic.

[GeorgeBurton]

i really hated the star wars comparisons.... what the hell are you talking about?

[Goonwild]

"... Of vagrant story" there's FFT, sitting in the corner crying

[danielroque]

This guy really made this awesome game sound boring...

[AstralSaiyan]

So I never played FF12 but it looks interesting. I'm concerned with the combat because I like to be involved a lot I don't want to sit and eat a bag of chips while my party just attacks. Besides this gambit system is there any control in the combat? Is it still fun to play?

[EtnaBoy]

Welp, time to dig up the old power-up guide for Final Fantasy XII I used years ago! XD

This is my favorite of the series, mainly because it doesn't have too much technology in it and it's based in a more racially diverse world.

what about the save crystal is it still the same how does it work
