About The Game:
Final Fantasy Tactics is a tactical role-playing game developed and published by Squaresoft (later changed to Square and now Square Enix) for the Sony PlayStation video game console. It is the first game of the Final Fantasy Tactics series and was released in Japan in June 1997 and in the United States in January 1998. The game combines thematic elements of the Final Fantasy video game series with a game engine and battle system unlike those previously seen in the franchise. In contrast to other 32-bit era Final Fantasy titles, Final Fantasy Tactics uses a 3D, isometric, rotatable playing field, with bitmap sprite characters.

Final Fantasy Tactics: Review & Secrets | ft. ProJared | The Completionist

*throws stone*
*throws 10 arrows and a compass*
*catches stone* Love the video, but I gotta be that guy, Jared! You mentioned that there's no hint as to where the materia blade is. However, hitting circle on Cloud's portrait in the party menu will give you a hint as to where his sword is. He'll say something to the effect of "It's at the top of the volcano!"
PS THANK YOU for doing this vid on FFT, I share the affinity for it and replay it every few years. It's like a classic novel, it just doesn't get old!
*Missed*
throws stone, misses, throws another 2 stones, misses both times, goes to get a popsicle
*Throws Dollars..... Gold Dollars*
DO NOT make fun of the Calculator job. It is simply the most overpowered class in the history of gaming. The ability to use math to calculate targets and spells seems odd at first, but when you truly master the class it is simply Godly.
deadbutmoving or get the calculater class and let the comouter autoplay them
Autoplay is the only way I can reliably get the Jump move to hit. XD
Pair with holy and Excalibur and you broke the game more than any of the special characters ever did
Never played as that job, but it seems dope
Give everyone chameleon robes / Excaliburs and have a mage with math skill cast holy on everything. Can't lose.
Final fantasy tactics is the best game I've ever played on any console or any genre. Nothing beats the story, challenging gameplay, customization of classes, jaw droppingly good music, and awesome character design and personalities.
Challenging gameplay? The game is horribly broken and unbalanced.
I say yhe same thing all the time but everyone thinks I dumb. A Zodiac Brave Story is the best storyline they have written
I absolutely love FFT's artstyle
Both the original and WOTL are amazing and perdition cohesive. One of the best games ever made.

18:33 Final Fantasy Tactics came out in 1997 in Japan
The Game of Thrones book came out in 1996
I went to the comments to write this exact thing.
think they mean the show keyboard warriir
Fuck, you beat me to it.
yeah this game reminds me of game of thrones since a lot of people get kill, assassinated, or murder in the royal families. either by people they trusted or family, all to get the throne even after the ending you read that your actions where cover up by the church and all those who said otherwise where executed or burn alive, real dark man.
I think they both just share the same inspiration, which is medieval intrigue. That's been a niche genre or literature for dozens of years.
There is a hint to where the materia blade is. Pressing select on a character and then selecting their name let's you talk to them, doing so on cloud gives a hint to the location of the blade
They probably never thought of doing that. I just wish that the Materia Blade did more damage.
I came to the comments just to point that, thank you
As did I.
Holy crap, I didn't know that was a thing. I never had the book for the game and FAQs don't include sweet stuff like that.
his limits are magic power scaled so it doesnt need too too much but if you have 2 swords you can have chaos blade right hand and materia blade left you do 4x more damage than with materia blade lol i loved finding that bug
ProJared The Finishist
ProJirard lol
what the hell?
I actually am retarded, thanks for that
I have Asperger's syndrome. What do you what me to do? Show you my credentials.
This is like a mix of a projared episode and a regular completionist episode and I love it
Damn, I wonder why…
I really like how Ramza and Delita are foils. Ramza starts as a noble. Delita starts as a peasant. Ramza ends the game as a nobody, but he has friends who love him. Delita ends the game as the King, but everyone hates him.
I wouldn't necessarily say Delita was hated by everyone in the end. And overall, I wouldn't say he was doing everything for his own selfish gain. The whole premise of the game is a book or paper that was written by Orlandu's son called the Durai Paper's. The world viewed Delita as the hero who, as a commoner, tore down all the corrupt nobles and unified the land under his rule and that is at least partially true. The Durai Paper's was written to expose the real story behind what actually happened, that being the story line you play through.
Delita isn't even completely at fault for losing everything he cared about the most. His sister dying was not something he could stop. They were 2 commoners that were in the wrong place at the wrong time and not by choice. They were raised alongside the Beoulve family. Treated like royalty compared to commoners but looked down on by royalty. Delita's sister gets captured because they thought she was royalty. She dies because she is viewed as expendable. The royals just want to finish off the Death Corps and now they know where their base is. This is what fuels Delita for the rest of the story. He is basically hell bent on getting back at royalty and to level the playing field between them and commoners.
Once he discovers Ovelia is just a commoner that was adopted and is being used like a pawn, he knows now how to do that. He's being truthful throughout the game when he tells Ovelia he wants to make the world a better place and make her queen like she rightfully should be in his eyes. He never wavers in his wants and he has no reason to lie to her since he knows she is common blood. And nothing points to him ever lying about that. But he gets caught up in using people just like what he's trying to stop and Ovelia realizes this at some point which is why she tries to kill him at the end. His last line saying something like, "This is what I got in all of this. What did you get Ramza?" Which I interpret as him thinking he succeeded but lost anything and everything important to him on his path to trying to complete his dream of making the world a better place.
It's sad really. He actually loved Ovelia in my opinion but was blind to the fact that his actions were corrupt, just like the people he was trying to tear down and replace.
This is how I interpret everything anyway
I'd also remind folks that Delita is etched in history by the populace as not just a hero king, but THE hero king. It's more accurate to say that the church and select members of the nobility were less than fond of him, due to his pro equality policies.
If anyone hated Delita in the end, it was himself; which is arguably worse than being openly disliked. It's knowing everyone praises you, loves you, appreciates and respects you; but knowing full well that you're not really being the person you had hoped to become. That you must suffer in silence and do unspeakable things for the greater good as a figurehead, catalyst of change, and symbol of hope; despite loathing yourself because you've become what you thought was a problem to begin with, but did so out of necessity.
And Argath ended up dead, thank goodness.
Hey guys we are talking about fire emblem right?
Kirberizer absolutely. Cid is best Lord.
Episode 1 of The Finishist was pretty good.
I hope Sklin roasts me too.
Where's this episode?
You're commenting on it.
PaleVoyager Oh. I thought it was on ProJared Plays or something.
I have to say ProJirard the Finishist may be my new favorite reviewer!
They missed a lot actually, some of the biggest points being-
Delita doesn't die
Ramza doesn't a funeral at all because he was called a heretic by the church. His actions are buried by the church. Ramza follows the righteous path the entire game and never gets the credit for it.
And Olan is killed because of the Durai papers which claim that the Church was behind it all, Delita is a massive manipulator and Ramza is the real hero.
Delita manipulated horrible people/factions into killing eachother off, seized power and used it to usher in a golden age in memory of his sister who was killed because she was considered expendable livestock by the ruling class.
There's a reason he's remembered as a great king.
ElliotKeaton Ramza is a horrible person? Delita manipulated Ramza. Delita was not the hero of the War of the Lions, it was Ramza. But Delita didn't want to share any of the spotlight with Ramza.
Zandandido Delita manipulated Ramza into doing the exact thing that Ramza wanted to do and then handed him Thunder God Cid.
The entire point of the true history of The War of The Lions (the thing Alazlam talks about from the start) was that Delita and Ramza were the _two_ heroes, not that Delita wasn't one.
Ramza didn't get credit because the church wrote him out of history to cover their asses and Delita wasn't stupid enough to start a new war after ending the old one just so his friend (who was either dead or in another country, didn't care about fame and didn't want war) could have some fame.
Ramza stopped the Lucavi, a faction that appeared during the war and took advantage of it.
Delita brought down the corrupt nobles and corrupt church members that started the damn war and caused tragedies like the Death Corps..
ElliotKeaton Delita didn't bring down corrupt church members he did bring down corrupt nobles.
Woo! It's ProJitard, The Finishist!
***** Well that was harst for an over-used meme that is used on a rare occasion
I also don't know why it's specifically my boyfriend's turd; why not my girlfriend's?.Or if we want to go purely insulting, why even suggest I have friends, just say my mom or dad.
Well you tried
AND MY DUDE AND THE COMPLETIONIST COOL AGAIN
I literally just jumped in place screaming
" It's back up!! IT'S BACK UP!!! YAAAYY!"
this makes everyone happy that this great video doesnt need to end up on the new game plus lineup. i even tweeted about this question to the great bearded one and was gonna add it to new game plus
Two of my favorite TH-cam game reviewers talking up my favorite Final Fantasy game?
I had a good feeling!
I opened the video with faith.
This is the way!
StraightOuttaJarhois I opened the video with high bravery and faith.
this is the best two of my favorite games on TH-cam playing together
This really makes me want Jirard to do a Fire Emblem game, preferably Rekka No Ken or Sacred Stones
Reka no Ken.
Videos al paso Internet tells me its Rekka No Ken, so that's how i've known it
scott willis Never played that one, is that on the Wii?
Rekka no Ken would be sick! The GBA games are still my favourites! And the sprites are so awesome~
+scott willis Isn't Rekka no Ken the Japanese name of the fire emblem game simply called Fire emblem in the States? I believe the one featuring Roy was titled Fuuin No Tsurugi.
"Tactics, I love it, let's talk"
"Let's go"
This is how I make friends.
CappuccinoGuil that’s how I’ve made most of my friends.
i literally do lyft and met an awesome person doing this.
22:55
Actually, if you go into the character customization screen, and talk to him, he mentions that his weapon can be found atop a volcano.
8:23-8:26 NO! NO Pro Jared! I don't care how sparkly you are you don't wink at me baka!!
FINISH IT!!! ProJirard The Finishest!! Great video
....indeed.
***** what?
I love how Jirard is wearing a t-shirt that looks like Jared's button-up.
I heard Tactics. I broke down my roommates door to get here.
Bloody seriously.
Lmfao....best comment iv'e seen in a very long time, actually lol'd...much appreciated :)
I'm so glad they reviewed this game. It's so underrated and I never hear anyone talk about this gem
It's really rare for people to talk about it. I love it.
This is the game my boyfriend and I bonded over when we found it was both of our favorite. So good.
what the fuck are you talking about. everyone who knows this game fucking loves it.
When it comes to tactical rpgs its horribly overrated.
@@mistertagomago7974 how? If you are looking about overrated play FF 7 instead.
"did it cast wateraga?"
I like that these guys are clearly having fun with the review like two actual friends would.
Two favorite TH-camrs review one of my favorite games... yes plz
It's Projirard the Finishist
where's that from Connor?
Game Grumps
I only see one guy...
Connor Lariviere really?
As an avid fan of Final Fantasy Tactics (via the iOS port) there are a few things Jirard and Jared missed:
- Luso and Balthier from Final Fantast Tactics A2 and XII respectively can join your party in the PSP remake, though much like Cloud they play a cameo role
- The PSP remake also has six additional battles in the story, two of which allow you to play as Delita
- There is co-op play in the PSP version, though it's absent in the original and iOS port
- Although there's A LOT of guest characters you recruit, I'm suprised there wasn't any mention of who Agris
SPOILER ALERT region
- Delita doesn't die after being stabbed as the Durai Papers mentioned that he continued to rule Ivalice
- Some of the guest characters like Argath never join your party and a majority of them are eventually killed (this game is truly the Final Fantasy version of Game of Thrones)
- We never actually learn how AWFUL the second battle against Gaffgarion is in this video, it's REALLY AWFUL
They didn't even mention the duplication glitch from the original! Got a whole party's worth of Exaclibers with that!
They didn't mention the instant job mastery glitch either. The one that lets you get 9999 jp on like... half the job classes. Especially the casters.
Yeah, and Balthier is also super broken. He's like Mustadio if he was buffed up to Orlandu's teir. Which is pretty awesome!
I was about to say the same thing lol. Delita doesn't die! He tanks that knife stab like a boss and rules Ivalice to prosperity, like a good king should. Ovelia dies, though, but she stopped being relevant from pretty much the first quarter of the game onwards.
~Luso and Balthier are not in the original game. They were added into the PSP (and iOS) version.
~Those additional battles and co-op play are in the PSP version, not the original. This is the original.
~They did mention Agrias. She's the Holy Knight they mentioned.
~The second battle with Gaffgarion isn't that bad. Not only can you break him by stealing (or breaking) his sword, but you can open up the gate to allow your party to meet up and work together. You should also steal his sword in the first battle. It's a blood sword and makes the second battle much easier if equipped to Ramza.
It is ProJirard the Finishist!
I remember when my brothers and I first tried playing this, we thought it was damn hard. Most games we had played beforehand don't really use the bumpers on the controller and when placing units in FFT it does not automatically switch to the next available unit... Long story short, we were stuck fighting the first battle with just Ramza and Delita over and over. Eventually all 3 of us eventually beat the first battle, only to be hard-stuck saving Algus... that idiot wouldn't just run away! When we finally figured out you could place more than 2 units... well... the game is now in my top 10 ever.
HA! That's awesome!
Same sort of thing happened to me when my Mum bought me Resident Evil 2 a month after it launched in 1998. It was Friday in the 5th Grade, and I could have a friend stay the night. It must have taken us around 90 minutes to understand tank controls (hadn't played RE1 yet)... After we got the controls down, we made it to the sewers in like three hours. We probably died 100 times!
90 before reaching Kendo's Gun Shop - 10 within the RPD. Within the next year I unlocked all of the fancy stuff that game had to offer!
I've been waiting for the return.
Delita doesn't even die though. I think the Durai papers or whatever remark that he ruled for quite some time.
At least 25 years and Olan Durai was sentenced to death for treason for those papers.
Edward is correct. Delita survives the injury.
Exactly. And Delita did indeed honor Ovelia. Her paranoia was so bad after the hell she went through though, that she became volatile and lashed out, finally getting killed. Additionally, we don't even know if she's nobility or not. She's a scapegoat.
The story is completely finished in the Raid battle of Final Fantasy 14 Stromblood. The 3 part raid finishes the Tactics story line about what happens to Ramza and Delita.
@@drewwinter9811 i don't like to imagine that's as a canon tho
I'm glad I'm not the only one that made the Game of Thrones connection. That's literally how I explain the game to anyone that never played it before: Game of Thrones told by Precious Moments figurines on a chess board.
*Well...*
My favorite RPG of all time? Final Fantasy 4. I'm not going to claim it's the best, because I'm sure there's lots of objective measures you can use to point out it wasn't. But it came at just the right time, and really showed me what a JRPG could be.
Every character in that game just spoke to me on a deep level. They all have those moments that are sered into my normally totally dysfunctional, useless mind. It was the first time I really ran into a story in general that kind of was "Adult" in how it treated its subject matter. And I don't mean Adult as in "the Ratings board that didn't exist at the time would have marked it Mature", but I mean in that it didn't dumb things down or talk down to the player. The themes in it were deep and compelling to me. Cecil starting off knowing he's done wrong in the world, but unwilling to betray his father figure in the King. Kain being split for wanting the love of those who overlook him in that same king and Rosa, and his own bond to Cecil. Rosa's kind, nurturing nature combined with her willingness to drop someone if need be. Rydia's journey from a traumatized, terrified little girl into this forlorn, sad woman who knows that she can never truly have what she desires, and putting her own desires aside so others might be happy instead. Edward's grappling with his own cowardice and his carefree, vice filled, spoony ways, and realizing his own nobility that he never thought he had. Edge's journey from brash, cocky, headstrong devil may care rogue to a calmer, more mature adult who recognizes the stakes and impact of his actions.
And so many other little bits.
To me, it was that game. You know how most people mention relatively recent games for their realization that a video game could be a work of art. Like Bioshock: Infinite and the like? For me, that was the game, Final Fantasy II (Well, it was marked II on my cartridge at the time). When it took something that even for RPGs hadn't been deeper than "There's a bad guy, kill it, loot it, buy stuff!" and told this deeper, engaging story. Where even with minimalistic sprites and simple little crushed down tunes could evoke some powerful emotions and deep characterization for me.
It cemented the JRPG as one of my favorite genres, which continues to this day. And is a game that I've bought nearly every release version for (Never did get a copy of it on the DS), and will still go back and play them.
To the point where I even quibble with myself a little over the impact that various translations across releases have. For example in the SNES the King gives Cecil a "GIFT" to bring to the Valley of Mist. Which makes the sudden death and burnination have not just a bigger surprise impact on you as a player, but also you can see how it is the last straw for Cecil. Where he was bringing something that could have conceivably been a peaceful token, and proved he was still loyal to the King despite his complaints about slaughtering villagers, to suddenly slaughtering villagers again, and the shock of it making him rescue Rydia. A War Orphan just like Cecil and Kain were in Baron.
To the later translations where they point out that it is a Bomb Ring that you're taking to the Valley of Mist. Which is a wholly different connotation to the mission. There's no thinking that it might be peaceful. It is unquestionably going to be a slaughter of dropping this down in the middle of a village. You know it, Kain knows it, Cecil should definitely know it. And he's willing to do it. Playing up the Loyalty to the King, as well as his own cowardice as he mentions the night before to Rosa. Being unwilling to stand up against what he knows is wrong. And we can presume it's probably his own past as that War Orphan, probably having seen his own family burned down by mages, that makes him snap and decide to save Rydia much like the King had saved him as a child. Deciding what is right and that his loyalty was to the deeds and memories of the past instead of the current orders of the King.
This is one of my all time favorite games, definitely my favorite tactical game. The story in particular is the best story I've yet to see in a game. So happy to see this episode
Patrick: "Hey, Jirard, I want a raise." *Throws rock*
Man, I freaking loved this game as a kid! Watching this made me want to go back and play it again!
I don't understand why this game didn't get a real/decent sequel... even a prequel would be nice (the 50 year war or maybe the Ajora era)
Jarv27 I can't remember but I think during the ending it says ramza disappeared for 25 years. If there was a sequel I would love to be a knight in delita's army. It is never explained why he was murdered. If 25 years went by, the peace in the world must have been fantastic to have Ramza just say f it and spend it in solitude with his sister.
It's nice to have the sequels but the are very totally different. I would take any type of sequel or prequel. It doesn't have to be tactical. But yes, Ivalice got a lot of love but nothing specific to this amazing story and characters. It is in my top 10 games for sure.
2021, wish granted.
This is probably my favorite Final Fantasy ^_^
It also has a character I hate with a passion, and that is Algus.
Talthain yeah Delita getting that punch in on him was super satisfying lol
My master's thesis on narrative in interactive media was based almost entirely on this game. It is simply one of the greatest narratives to be found in videogames.
Probably my favorite episode. But I'm a sucker for silly ass crossovers like this.
Holy crap. I hope Jared appears on more episodes. He and Jirard work so well together.
Final Fantasy Tactics is one of my top three favorite games of all time. The other two being Megaman X (First game I ever played), and Majora's Mask, for telling side stories to me through dialog and environment details, but not necessarily telling me what's going on.
Final Fantasy Tactics story taught me so much when I was young. Starting off as an seemingly innocent adventure with Ramza, Delita, talking about what every other game talked about, hope and doing the right thing. But after the end of chapter 1, it was the first time something like that happened, right in front of the character I was controlling. Everything from the line engraved in my mind "I dropped everything, and I ran away." to Delita seeking power made sense to me. This happy cartoony world just turned dark so quickly. So much of this game was just not black and white, no two sides of a coin is truly evil.
Delita's power seeking rampage made sense, not only did it give him a sense of revenge, but it would put him in control, he would have the power to stop things like that from happening. Perfectly contrast Ramza, who decided to stick to his guns and fight for what he knew was right.
"Ramza, what did you find?.... I......"
He found peace.
Also the kick ass music, PBG and Jeff used one of the songs in their Mario Party playthrough and I nearly lost my shit at how nostalgic it made me.
Also, you can just solo everything with Ramza once you start Chapter 4. Yell and Shout for days.
I freakin' LOVE the music.
You can solo from the beginning if you want. This is the only game that I have ever attempted/completed a solo challenge, and man was it a blast. The toughest fight is the second fight of the game because you are out numbered and it is a bit up to luck.
This video was fantastic. So many laughs. I was definitely on the fence about this game (I've always been more of a Fire Emblem guy), but this video has piqued my interest. I'm looking forward to playing it!
Ramza learning the Ultima is hard? Try stealing cachusha and barrette while saving the suicidal rafa (rapha) on the top of riovanes castle and plus make Luso learn ultima there if you play the port version.
Facts.
People... don't talk about Tactics? Well, I sure hope that this video changes that.
Same here. I freakin' LOVE this game.
I love the game, but damn was it a chore to get the Dark Knight Job.
@@LesterRamos especially in the original 😂
Mitsuraga same, I really wish they would make another one. I loved the GBA FF Tactics as well where you’re transported into the FF world
Not one projirard the finishist joke?
Well the main character got named Projirard and they gave it the finish it rating. Good enough for me.
That is more of a gamegrumps thing.
Sklin yeah if skiln doesn't think it's funny, it isn't. He is the deciding factor of all comedy.
HOW DID YOU GUYS FORGET TO MENTION THE DIFFICULTY SPIKE THAT WAS DORTER TRADE CITY AND ZEKLAUS DESERT?
outstanding two of my absolute favorites
great episode loved every minute of it lol
thanks so much for all the hard work and great new content
Both of your channels are great for when I need a mental break. They’re pretty much a nostalgic vacation. Although in this case, I never played Final Fantasy Tactics lol
If you click on the character portraits in the party menu each character will have something to say. I believe Clouds quote is “It’s hidden at the top of a volcano!”
Only one unlockable character worth getting?
Reis stats were the highest if you leveled her in her base job (ps1 version, Onion Knight was best if all jobs were mastered.) With a natural dual wield built in to her base class her normally weak attack quickly became frighteningly powerful. Give her the monk skills and her attack power starts to become terrifying. With armor equipped her HP was maxed, not using the secret armors given...just shop things. In the event of fighting monsters her breath attacks gave an elemental, and to an extent ranged, advantage dealing out even more punishment behind that massive HP pool. Holy breath was mostly useless, but every once in a while you could use it near tiles that it would cancel itself out, limiting it to 1-3 trigger areas making it worth the usage, though admittedly it was usually better to take the CP boost and wait instead of using holy breath...Even still.
Beowulf being of really high HP, able to inflict statuses at a higher success rate than Oracle, and having naturally high magic attack made him a force to be feared if you gave him math skill. You could not only faith people and increase the healing done/damage done/success rate of all his skills extremely easily, but also do the opposite if you wanted to use him offensively and nulify your party to magic with Doubt. Give this guy some robes you get from deep dungeon and either the Excalibur for autohaste or runeblade for more magic attack and you're looking at a guy putting out way too much damage in way too little time on every target that needs it, especially if you gave him the magic attack boost from Wizard.
WHY DID YOU NOT USE THESE TWO? Compared to them Cloud was crap, his charge times were ridiculous meaning you NEEDED to use your support slot for Quick Cast from time mage.
I'd use Reis over Cloud any day. My main 5 (not including Orlandu) were Reis, Worker 8, Ramza (as a Samurai with monk skills and 2 swords and counter), a Summoner with Priest secondary, and a Lancer with monk skills. I really did not like Malak or Rafa.
Beowulf was the guy that made Oracles irrelevant.
Friggin' Oracles.
ElliotKeaton Oracles and Red Chocobos.
I used Ramza with his standard Guts so I could increase attack power as I moved with Monk secondary, usually split damage but sometimes Auto-Potion. Reis with her base class for those insane stats and Samurai secondary for massive support abilities, Critical restore since her massive HP pool meant her critical range was pretty high. Beowulf with Math Skill, his petrify rate was pretty intense, essentially a 1 hit kill, and Split Damage so as to not make Shock useless but not make him suicidal, Orlandu with Jump for added range and auto-raise for a counter, and Worker 8 for immunity to magic meaning Beuwulf wouldn't hurt him with math skill. Everyone had teleport for movement, if you understood how it worked it was easy to exploit.
My most successful party consisted of:
1. Ramza - Time Mage with Calculator skill
2. Random...same as Ramza
3. ^
4. ^
5. ^
All with complete mastery of all spells that can be utilized with Math Skill.
3/4 of the battles in the game can be destroyed by a single casting of Math Skill - Holy as performed by a Black Mage with Magic Attack+
Don't know if many will agree with me, but I personally think that FFT is the best game ever made. (My opinion...)
I certainly do.
1 supporter! Any more?
WIth one of the best soundtracks and one of the best stories, that's for sure.
***** That's two.
Add me to the list
Orlandu looks like Ben Kenobi.
Unless he had the high ground.
Fair enough
Bill Sutherby he would knock anyones dick in the dirt. He's the strongest character ever, I even made a video about him lol
Bill Sutherby What the fuck does “knock his dick in the dirt mean?”
Jumping in a year late to this comment, but Matsuno admitted Star Wars was a huge inspiration for his story making. It's very possible TG Cid is based on Kenobi considering his relation to Ramza who was most likely based on Luke.
8:54 RIP that Wiegraf fight. Double stop on the Stasis Sword.
What I truly loved about this game is that each character's initiative was separately trackered, unlike FE which is "Your team" and then "Enemy Team".
Fans did patch the slow down on the psp version, but legally jirard wouldn't be allowed to lp it on laserclown or promote it here.
Oh wow, didn't expect to see that name. It's a shame Konami's gone to the shitter, cause we're never going to see Suikoden 6.
Wow, thank you man. I never knew this patch existed. Just downloaded it and it works miracles. It's time to replay FFT. Thanks again :)
***** Don't make me sad reminding me of that man.
***** But you remind yourself with your own username :p
11/10 best use of final fantasy class system
Oh hey it’s back
I believe Cloud gives a hint about where the Materia Blade is, he says something about the top of a volcano so that's your clue
You know, the best way to level JP is to start a battle, kill all but one enemy, surround the enemy, heal up as best you can (including healing that enemy to full, then turn everyone into frogs.
Why, you ask? Simple. Turn on AI at that point, then go get some sleep, make dinner, shower, watch a movie, play another game, whatever! frogs that auto attack will do only 1 damage. If everyone's HP starts at max, it will take forever for the battle to end, BUT, each hit will give full JP for an attack. Once the frogs have the max JP needed to spend on the job they are in, the 5th player (who you conveniently used the AI to turn chicken and run) can now come in, slaughter the last enemy, finish the battle, then you can swap jobs and do it all over again!

Jirard, on your own you are magnificent, as is Jared on his own; but every time you do something with Jared it reaches an entirely new level. I think you guys should collaborate on any and all other games with which you share this level of enthusiasm. I couldn't stop laughing.
Ninja two handed sword knight. wields Excaliber and Save the Queen. nearly an instant win at all times...two swords skill alone broke the game.
My Ramza in a nutshell
there were so many other power combo's that could be done with much less effort and much greater rewards. Monk + Squire skills was just one of them. A team of female ninja's with maintenance, jump and equip spears, all wearing ribbons and chantage's - almost impossible to kill.
Any and all arithmeticks.
Monk + two swords = Uber broken.
ExBruinsFan
it pretty much makes the samurai ability hold a weapon with both hands utterly useless almost. considering both jobs take a while to get.
Lelouchxzero1
Yeah. I found the samurai disappointingly weak.
I needed this episode back in my life.
16:44 a man unsuccesfully tries to contain his laughter
Zalbag looks like late 90's- early 2000's James Hetfield.
Oh wow this video is private thank God it's back
Ok, just a little note, there's a BIG difference between 'royalty' and 'nobility'. Ramsa and family are nobility, not royalty, in that they have no direct claim to the throne. It's a little thing, but it bothered me a LOT through this video.
I'm a stickler because I love, though. Love FFT. Absolutely FFT!
A COMPLETE QUARRY SO STONE THROWN!
I truly love this game so thank you for this review!
I would level my characters this way:
1) Get four characters Steal Gil, one character Speed Break, and one character that Squire skill that boosts your attack (Accumulate? I forgot the name)
2) Go to the first area random battles occur (forgot the name) and kill off all but one monster
3) Surround said monster to keep it from moving and use Speed Break till it has no more speed--this will ensure the monster will rarely, if ever get turns
4) Steal Gil to your hearts content while the character not participating uses Accumulate
You not only level up your characters, but you get a lot of gil in the process. Purchasing new equipment and items no longer becomes a problem.
Oh shit, this game is where the Zodiac Braves came from? Man, the things you learn.
...Wait, Biblos, too? Goddamnit! cx
Byblos actually comes from FFV, as far as I know.
Yea, Byblos is from FFV, he's a boss that comes out of a book and has a rivalry with Ifrit!
Isn't he the second boss of the Dubal Library on FFXIV:Heavensward, as well? If I'm remembering this correctly, then he gets around.
Hawkkiller2 The Great Gubal Library, yes! :D I wonder if he shows up again in the hard mode next patch.
Yes he is, a lot of past boss fights from various FF game have made it into FFXIV. Living Flame from FFV will actually be a boss in the Hard Mode Dungeonfor Gubal Hard as well. FFXIV has done a great job incorporating them into the story. They even managed to squeeze in a retelling of FF3 as a Raid story.
9:11 when your best bud knows exactly what you're talking about
I love this game. This is legit my favorite game of all time. Btw, JP Boost would've made getting job points a helluva lot faster.
I cant believe this is 5 years old. Thank you Jirard, your amazing.
Weigraf taught me the lesson of backup saves. Weigraf teaches through pain.
God that restart hurt so bad
That ProJared Entrance was hilarious, and so talented ;)
Why throw rocks when you can accumulate? Noobs
Monk in the middle, chakra and accumulate, everyone hits or buffs monk. Noob ;)
Throw stone to trigger adrenaline rush, use potion for stone victim, ramza yell to people, haste, speed break to enemy. And you got all the turn you want. Noobs
i just stole gil >> used a knight/ninja hybrid to destroy the speed and PA/MA of a target, then stole gil for hours on end.
Or you can down page brfore hitting yes. INFINITE JOB POINTS!
that wont help you rank up the classes, or get you any levels though :p JP to learn stuff is only one small part of the class
AT LAST!!! FFT!! XD my all time fav and the most underrated ff game. I fking love this game and i can't get tired of replaying it once in a while. This and symphony of the night is my 2 top favs in PS era.
Symphony of the night is pretty awesome i have to admit, just started playing it for the first time. I've yet to try final fantasy tactics, how does it hold up compared to fire emblem?
+Craig Morrison Try not to compare FE and FFT beforehand, just play it and forge your own opinion imo. Tho' I love both series really much so idk what that says about it.
Tbh, Fire Emblem is easy mode in comparison, there's a lot more mechanics involved in Tactics and positionning is more important. If you like a game that will either make you think hard or grind hard, this is a really good one.
Mathieu Couture really? Fire emblem easy? Am i really that bad at tactical rpgs? XD
Craig Morrison Well, in Fire Emblem you have weapons and magic triangles plus bows>fliers. Add to that the critical hits that become OP as hell end game, you can breeze through a FE game if you know what you are doing. Of course, hard mode is always there for you if you need more challenge, but you have to expect that from a game where grinding isn't as abusable as in a FF game. Max level in FE is 20+20 (promotion) while max level in FFT is 99+whatever bonuses your job level gives you. Of course, if you grind that much in FFT, you'll be in cakewalk mode anyway :P. Also, perma-death on units in FE while you can rez units if you're fast enough in FFT, the game that dicks you the most will usually give you a freebie to compensate.
Note that I'm talking about these 2 games from memory after not playing them for like 7+ years.
That intro was actually funny! Great job guys.
And hearing all these names out loud is throwing me for a loop. Some things you suddenly realize you've never heard out loud before despite thinking them for decades.
Jared's adoration for Final Fantasy Tactics is absolutely adorable.
this needs to be re released for ps4
Jus emulate it .
I finally give this game a shoot and although I'm only 2 chapters in. This game is amazing. My favorite is when you miss an attack on a chocobo, it literally dab your attack. That caught me off guard and had me lmao. Also the guest character are so goddamn op. I especially like mustadio + 2 dragoons combo (My ramza is one of them) and literally stomp my enemy to death. Best class imo is dragoon. A bit of bias since I like Kain but man, dragoon are really powerful. Not to mention they also have an ability that cast reraise meaning if they get k.o, they just stand back up. Monks are also amazing. Man I love this game
There is a hint on where to get Clouds Materia Blade, when you press his name in the roster, he says "It lies on top of a volcano"
Or something along those lines, great video
This has, since the first time I played it, been my favorite game. Like, it's not even close.
Yes there is a way to find out how to find Clouds material blade. All you have to do is click on Clouds face on the formation screen and he will say "I think its on top of the volcano" all of your characters says different dialogue when you click on them on the menu formation screen. Check it out for yourself, I think we were all around the same age when this game was released and that was one of the first things I discovered when I unlocked cloud.
"Getting to level 100." Not using level down traps to get to level 100 5,000 times and maxing out all your stats.
...I question your dedication.
lol
I maxed out my characters when I was younger lvl wise that is and cuz oh boi I tried maxing out the wizard it called hell pure hell
First off, Wild Arms battle music: wonderful
Second, no legendary Javelin or Escutcheon?
ProJirard, the Finishist
jared’s a legend, mad charisma
Holy shit, the final guy in the Deep Dungeon is Elidibus?! I didn't even know that FFXIV character was a reference!
This is a youtube dream come true. I'm glad you both did this.
This is the best game ever for challenge runs. Limiting your roster, the jobs you can use, the equipment and skills you can get. It's so easy to set up challenge runs, and the mechanics are far deeper than you can imagine, allowing for some ridiculous feats. You can straight up beat the game with a solo white mage. Definitely one of the best RPGs ever created.
Have you tried FFT 1.3?
Yeah, it's a pretty great mod. I really enjoyed it.
VoidAbaddon So many great mods for the game.
Yeah, it's a really moddable game. A lot of really great possibility for interesting mechanics.
What do you think of Tactics Ogre ?
Dear Valve and Square Enix
PUT THIS GAME ON STEAM!!!!
***** Who pissed in your cereal this morning???
He did. He actually likes it yellow, soggy, and ammoniated. He's also just a troll with nothing better to do.
it probably will since every Final Fantasy is coming to pc
This is a must! I hope it gets the FF9 treatment, cause this game cries out to be played with a mouse. I remapped the FF9 controls to my Razor Naga, and was able to play it completely one handed. While my left hand was free to... Ahhh never mind. Mmm Rusty...
They would port the IOS version wich is bad consider how much people were pissed at FF V and VI steam ports
I'm so glad that Jirard finally got to this one, FFT is one of the first games I played seriously in my youth and I can't even recall how much time I put into the War of the Lions port. I did enjoy that one a bit more for reasons relating more to polish and shine on most everything the original had to offer, but at its heart they're both similar enough to get an amazing gaming expereince with still one of the best stories I've seen out of gaming and some of the best visual styles. This is definitley one of my top favorite games and seeing more high profile channels talk about it is really heartwarming.
If Square released Final Fantasy Tactics with Octopath Travelers graphics.... i'd explode with joy.
The video is back 😱😱
I'm just starting this game today looking forward to this.
It's back
i remember when this game came out as a kid and i very very vaguely remember my friend saying it was great but i never played it and never knew till now. thank you completionist, because if i never sawthis i never would have known. just started a playthrough. very promising, this is what, game reviews are for. thanks again man
22:55 Actually, the game does give you a hint about the sword via the unit quotes. When you're on a character's status page, press select, and a cursor will appear at the top of the screen. Move this cursor to the character's name, click on it, and they'll say a predefined quote. In general, only special units have things to say. For Cloud, he says "It's hidden at the top of the volcano!".
