Are there any 3DS Jrpgs that play like old school Final Fantasy?

Bravely Default and the sequel are FF spinoffs that mark Square's return to 2D FF roots. Gameplay and job systems are fantastic. Story quality is comparable to FF 1-3 so don't get too excited. But if you play the oldschool games for the gameplay then you'll really enjoy these. Visuals are especially nice too.

Nice, thanks

i got those 2 on my hacked 3ds xl, but by mistake i got the for the sequel game in japanese... good to see they are worth playing tho, i will download the english version now.

The Dragon Quest games, but you probably knew that already

Projared has a good video review emphasizing how much freedom and customization of the mechanics the game gives you. The first game also has one of the best jrpg soundtracks I've heard in years. I hope you enjoy.

What do you mean? Old nes ff had no atb.

>>383836537

Just used that pic for reference. I consider any FF "old school" at PS2 era or before

>>383836356

Actually, no, I'm completely ignorant of any 3ds games. Honestly I just picked up a cheap 2ds out of boredom and it turned out to be my best purchase of the year

The entire DS-3ds family library is an oldschool style jrpg haven. Welcome to the club.

Man do I hate those ugly ass sprites

>>383836019
in fact Bravely Default pretty much is the missing FF5 remake.
>GBA had FF1 and 2 remake
>DS had FF3 and 4 remake
>3DS has a mysterious SE game that just so happens to have FF5's job system

>>383837982
Sad thing is, the enemy sprites are actually fucking fantastic. Same thing with the FF 5 "remake".
I wish the party members would have similar sprite style, and not that pants on head retarded, filter riddled things.

Up to Ch 4 with Bravely Default, I fucking love it. I don't think the story itself is that bad either, the music / customization are sublime. Will be playing it a few times before picking up its sequel, I'm dedicated to getting everything here in the journal / jobs / levels.

Agreed, I got FFVI on steam but returned it because I couldn't stand the GameMaker tier graphics. Where's the best place to play it as it was originally designed, I see the GBA version on Wii U's playstore but I read that has audio issues. Is it still on Wii's virtual store?

The GBA version has extra content like new dungeons. There's a fanmade patch to restore the visuals and audio to its SNES version, you'll have to use an emulator for that.

Even ff12 ir 11?

Even 10 had conditional turn battle. 4to 9 had turn based active time battle. Ff7 had limit breaks.

1 to 3 are just turn based. 2 has no leveling up.

What are you looking for?

what's wrong with them

>>383835613
wow is this some FF6 remake for a portable?

holy shit it looks like garbage compared to the horiginal, why did they shit up the colours on the sprites

>>383839041
Pixels equal ugly.

What they should had done was just smoothed out the old sprites.

>>383839041
Now now. Give portable systems some credit. This is the mobile port.

iOS got a bunch of ports that made the graphics look like RPGMaker.

>>383839026
god that looks bad

>>383838943

Nothing really in particular, just:

>Good guys on one side
>Bad guys on the other side
>A menu that includes Attack, Magic, Summon, and Items

I'm trying to get into Fire Emblem but it's kind of overwhelming. Managing an army, a fortress, and on top of that I have to pick a waifu? That's too much pressure

Wish they gave 5 and 6 the PSP 1, 2 and 4 treatment. That's how you remaster a 2D game.

Several things, not the least of which is the way they clash with the baroque tiles the game is composed of. It's just a horrible mishmash of styles. Tiles are (mostly) unfiltered while the sprites have this horrible filtering applied.

If you look at the Relm and Setzer sprites in OP, you'll notice they lack the 3/4th perspective that gives the originals depth. Just compare to these. It's a subtle thing but it's the details that made FFVI such a beautiful game.

>>383839026
Why are the towns little 3d models? As if it wasn't mish-mashed enough.

Terrible, just terrible. Art director should be FIRED.

>>383838761
Not sure why you would quote me. Nowhere in your pic are enemy sprites, which I was talking about.

>>383839658
Fire emblem is tatics based Rpg. Most of the stuff you want on is on snes or ps1.

Chrono trigger on ds is close but has no random ecounters or split screen,

>>383841456
Mobile ports are meant to look like that. Ios games have no quality seal.

>>383839658
>and on top of that I have to pick a waifu?
That's optional actually.
