This took a while to do. I compared Final Fantasy Tactics, Final Fantasy Tactics: The War of the Lions, and Final Fantasy Tactics - The Ivalice Chronicles for @rpgsite.net going over features, platform differences, visuals, load times for all the versions, and more: www.rpgsite.net/feature/1859...

Final Fantasy Tactics - The Ivalice Chronicles on Switch 2, Steam Deck OLED, ROG Ally, and PS Portal next to two PS Vitas running FF Tactics PS1 and WOTL. There's a physical copy of the PS5 version next to an iPad running FFT WOTL, the Switch and Steam Deck LCD with the classic mode for the Ivalice Chronicles. I also have the soundtrack playing on a phone via Apple Music next to two espresso cups with black coffee.

Read my Final Fantasy Tactics complete feature going over PS1 vs PSP vs mobile vs PS5 vs Switch 2 vs Xbox vs Steam Deck PC and more on RPG Site - https://www.rpgsite.net/feature/18591-final-fantasy-tactics-the-ivalice-chronicles-switch-2-vs-ps5-psp-war-of-the-lions-ps1-features-xbox-pc-steam-differences-compared

I’m unsure how I feel about having characters in a game tell me how to play in terms of keyboard buttons and stuff. It’s a bit of an immersion break, but it’s also cool to have the game explained by a character rather than a popup hmm..

The event manager in my game can now take conversation events! I need to be careful with this... The urge to create #FE 💩-posts is real.

Nonsense aside! It goes as a great example on how flexible the system is! 💪 What do you all think?

To flex the new conversation system, I remade one funny support conversation from #FE GBA! 💬

Few things I need to correct, spacing on the . ' characters and the pop in flicker of the text box. However all in all its going well! 🤩

Rococo Haley did a very entertaining stream of the FFT demo and deploys an interesting “wait and bait” strategy on defense. Very cool!

Working on a new Caster ability called Bolt! It is a ranged magic attack that is guaranteed to force a fumble, but you have to be kind of far away to use it.
