>coming this year
>COMING 2017

maybe i'll actually finish the main quest this time instead of putting 500 hours into fucking hunts again

Will the audio still be compressed to nothing?

i mean you can play this now with an emulator.

I know nothing of FF12 other than the gambit system. is the job system anything like 3/5/X-2?

>FF10 and FF10-2 remaster.
>FF15
>FF7 Remake being split into three game instalments.
>Now FF12 remake is coming.

How can Square keep up with all of this? Since when did Square become a FF factory?

What about the poor Vita? ;_;

They'll pay some Chinese company to the port.

Vagrant Story current gen full remake when?!

poor who?

Fuck you.

Fucking sweet, XII is one of my favourite FFs right behind IV

You sir have amazing taste in video games. Congratulations!

It just requires a massively more expensive PC to run well and it won't look as good (better than PS2, but not as good as this).

Gee I dunno it's not like they released nine FF games on one console in the 90s or anything.

the original game is already gorgeous, square wont have too much work with this

I've been waiting for this since the X/X-2 Remaster.

About fucking time. Though maybe it's for the best it took this long, because now I've got a PS4.

yeah, but it's nice to support the company so maybe they will make more games in the same vein.

you select jobs as you get each character and they're stuck as that for the whole game, so not really. And the jobs are not massively unique since they are are basically just subsets of abilities from the original game. But it is good.

Well now you can expedite your leveling and item gain with the Trail 100 thing.

>Remaking FF XII of all games

What the fuck?
Why?
Who wants that? Hell, it isn't that old anyway. At this rate the FFXVI remake is going to come out before FFXVI.

I don't think your inventory carries over from Trials. It's another option on the menu screen, you pick a base save to import your status from, then every 5 battles you can save your progress to a separate Trial save.

It was always like this

U have just forgotten

ff13 has fucked up final fantasy releases for so many years

They mentioned rerecording all the audio so I doubt it will be compressed like it was

>Who wants that?

Quite a lot of people. Many people have wanted a way to play the (much superior) ZJS version with emulation or piracy.

...

But some offer more than the original did. Monk gets more martial arts boosts then there were in the original

Technically 10 games.
Origins has FFI and II on it.
Collection has IV, V, and VI

Then the what is the fucking point of the Trial if it has no actual effect on the main game?

true, but I guess I mean in terms of abilities and gameplay style, in something like FFV there are major differences, but in XII it really just comes down to attacking with a different weapon or using different spells. Not criticizing the game, just saying.

That four years of huge profits from 11, that's why they could take time for 12. Even though Vaan and Penelo are still shit

it's a way to challenge the team you have built in the main game, really. Doesn't give you any items or stuff, it's just a challenge.

All of it? really?
Nice to see that they put some effort in it
Hope it also has an updated soundtrack like 10 remastered did

So it was fucking pointless.

12 had a troubled development though, the main director "got sick" and left the company halfway through. It's why the game kind of just ends and is a bit flat in the second half.

Isn't the last challenge against all 5 judges at once? Even the female one that got killed and you never fought

Dual Audio.
Play it in Japanese or English.

it's content in a video game, it's for ultimately pointless fun, like all the other content. Don't understand what your problem is. You don't have to play it, all the content in the base game is still there, this is just some optional endgame content for you to do.

>The Trial Mode was added in the game due to a flaw in the original version of Final Fantasy XII where players who bother to unlock the game's best weapons, will find they don't have any strong enough monsters left to try their best weapons on. The Trial Mode was envisioned as a challenge for this very purpose

also, I was wrong, there is a reward for beating it- you get the NG+ Weak Mode, where you start at lvl 1 and never gain exp.

yup, and apparently it's one of the most difficult fights in any game.

You can run FF12 on fucking windows tablets and 5 year old laptops you fag.

FF12 took so long because it had bad development. That's why it didn't turn out very good, and why some of the characters were bad.

Pretty sure they're outsourced

>Who wants that?
Why are people blind?

I don't think FF12 is being outsourced, at least not to the same company who did FF10. It actually looks better than the original, though the post processing may be a bit strong.

IZJS isn't 'much' superior. The levelling system is worse.

1. I
2. II
3. IV
4. V
5. VI
6. VII
7. VIII
8. IX
9. Tactics

Unless one of those was compilation games was actually III, the regional numbering is such a pain in the ass.

ok, fair enough, I know there is debate over whether IZJS is actually better than the original, so I can respect that not everyone likes it. I will certainly admit it has issues. Hopefully the game will have an option to switch, but I doubt it, it will probably just be a straight port using IZJS as the base. Can't you make a party of Freelancers and play it kind of like the original game? I can't remember.

>FF12 remake
it's a remaster.

in house

XV-kun must be happy

>A print screen of Yasumi Matsuno’s reply to Andre Grant’s tweet. A direct translation of his tweet: Good afternoon. If Hiroyuki Ito is the director of FF16 and asks you to write the game scenario, will you do it? I really love your stories.

>Still has shit mmo combat

Why the fuck would they not change it?

There's no debate, the new levelling system is unironically terrible because it was half-baked. Any system that caps itself out before the game is even close to 100% is not a good system. FFX International had the option to switch so hopefully this will too.

>freelancer
what

ah, I thought there was maybe a way to just use the license board from the original game but I guess not.

As for an option, desu I don't see it happening because it isn't in the IZJS PS2 version so it would be too much work to add in.

I see your point about capping. I know in my save I had everyone will all licences and LP to spare for the final boss, and I barely did any hunts. Personally I like it because at least you get to see all the abilities and skills in a normal playthrough, but I can understand that people don't like it. I suppose Trial Mode is there too, to give you something to challenge your maxed characters with.

>Fran's ass in HD

Y E S

This is exciting for me because I never played XII. I loved XI and head the combat is similar, so bully for me I guess.

>main director "got sick"
Maybe if the team weren't backstabbing cunts and didn't leave for Mistwalker, then everything would have went smoothly. Unfortunately they did leave, and we've never had a decent FF game after XII.

they left because square-enix is fucking cancer

They could have left after their work was finished. Except they chose to leave en masse, which proceeded to stress Matsuno so hard he decided never to handle a big project ever again.

Ondore 2016

wait for the inevitable steam release.

is it going to be full retail?

...

took them long enough

Sweet. I've kinda been putting off playing IZJS just because I don't like playing on emulators. Gonna pick it up day one

>You can run FF12 on
>5 year old laptops
BULL
SHIT

You can.

No, you can't.

Ba'Gamnan will never join your team
God fucking damn it.

Yeah, you can.

I could emulate FFXII at about 30-40 FPS on a mid-range laptop I got in 2009.

Speccaronies?

Too bad they can't remaster the characters and plot.

Will this version delete Vaan from the game? Or at least give him a motherfucking shirt?

No?

Then I don't care.

>30-40 FPS

>Ashe and Fran sweet asses in 1080p

Oh baby

>FF 12 remaster
>Vaan is still in the game
NOPE

Emulated the International zodiac version on a Laptop I bought in 2010 years ago with little to no slowdown.

Yes you can you autist.

Notice how he said 2009. 2011 was five years ago and in 2011 pcsx2 got faster and laptops were more powerful.

I love how poor you are by the way.

Fucking hell, there's been more FF remakes/remasters/ports than new games this generation, Square Enix really love milking that cash cow.

The trailer makes it look like screenshots from emulators that people have been using for years. Are consoles really this much of a meme?

Bish my computer is six years old and it can run FF12 at 60fps

>I love how poor you are by the way?
What?

You're arguing that because you're shitty ancient laptop can't play FF12 no others can.

let me know when it's on pc like the rest of the remasters

I was just asking for specs of his laptop
>also, check out my "ancient laptop"

>had a ball with vanilla
>while the job system is nice and worth a shot I don't know how different the tricks and chest grindan may be in IZJS

I mean, I remember playing this with full high settings, widescreen hack res hack (can't remember if I did anything else) and that was back when I had a gtx 275... which was years ago.

I'm sure pretty much damn near any modern computer can play this with flying colors.

Sorry friend, I've long since forgotten. I gave that laptop to my mom a few years back when I was able to build a PC. The CPU might have been an Intel Centrino? I can't remember.

Aww fuck no. It was such a long and long winded game. Once was easily enough this lifetime for me.

My dick is rock solid.

Now port it to PC.

Sweet! Now they're free to remake FFVI!

Oh wait...

They already did, user. PCSX2 has existed for years now.

If Square doesn't fix the Effect Capacity, half of the classes may as well not exist

finalfantasy.wikia.com/wiki/Effect_Capacity

If it's on Steam? I'll consider it. If not I'll continue to emulate IZJS.

Not going to bother unless you have the choice of job systems. Gave IZJS a try after having made it halfway through the original and was thouroghly unimpressed, the amount of equipment and spells it locks you out of is unreasonable and the railroaded progression feels unbearable. Even if the original system had late game homogenization problems, if you were to compare their early to mid game IZJS is about as complex as the crystarium in XIII, whereas the original licence board is more of an experience like the expert sphere grid

I'd only be interested if it fixes the 99% auto attack combat, adds in the ability to position characters manually and not have them fidget around on their own, and does something about the threat system outside of Decoy.

It's very clearly a copy of the FF11 combat system with all the main mechanics removed, I never had fun with it.

Yea I forgot about the stupidity that is Decoy. It would be great for them to add in more threat management.

You got the mobile remake user :)
Isn't that what you wanted?

>Nigger speaking Japanese
>Mariano using English

Wtf

>You can, believe me
>No specs
nigger...
