This game is wonderful.
The only thing that annoyed me is, each time you obtained a new class you had to train it, and the grind was kinda boring fast.

Also it's strange how the story variation were handled. Characters motivations changes depending what you choose, it was real strange seeing Vyce being a complete douch in chaos and then he's way too nice in lawful.

Can you find yourself in any unwinnable situations like FF Tactics?

>>385417354
I mean, the class system in TO lets you make him into a monk-like character anyway. He won't have the best stats for it, but a character's individual stats stop being important once your classes hit Lv15 or so.
The bigger people is that there isn't really a monk-like class, outside of one boss character who can't join you.

Yes, there are random battles to grind your party and get crafting materials.
Fuck crafting by the way. You can't make things in bulk so when you need five steel ingots you need to go through way too many "crafted on [component]". Not to mention that if you're a scumbag like me you'll save between every time because crafting can fail and you lose everything.

You get all the sisters in the Chaos route too, and really Neutral is just a branch of the Chaos route. I've played all the routes on a New Save, and to me Law > Chaos > Neutral, not to say Neutral doesn't have some cool moments. Neutral!Vyce is a true wild card
>>
>>385417506
Actually, >>385417801 raises a good point. Use a cheat to make crafting have a 100% success rate. The crafting system in TO sucks balls, and the worst part is that crafting only yields good equipment up to level 30 or so - all the good endgame OP bullshit only drops in the Palace o the Dead.
>>
Can I talk about OB64 too?
I fought Procus at Latium. I had read somewhere that to do that, you have to have a low CF and have Ankiseth. But I don't have Ankiseth and my CF is above 50 because right after that mission, I was able to get the Southern Cross armor.

Also, Gorgons are my favorite characters. I built a unit with 2 Gorgons in the front, a Cockatrice in the back, and another Gorgon in the back with that bow that petrifies. Most enemy units are dead before they get a chance to attack.

Story is actually based off of the Yugoslav wars and is pretty interesting. Though if you aren't a fane of these kinds of games it can get annoying. But if you're using cheats then you should be good.
>>
>>385417741
The story is good, but you need to kill yourself.
The story starts off with the main character Pavel, his sister and his friend joining a rebellion. After liberating some of their land Pavel is sent to deal with some miners. There you a choice about what you want to do with the miners, but no matter what you'll end up hated.
Pavel then realizes that if he wants to create a better world then he'll have to do it himself and then he goes to conquer the world.

Duke Ronway being competent sounds somewhat correct, although Pavel still hunts him to clear his name.

>>385418450
It's not bullshit.From an interview in 95

>I think those who bought the game were those who had an interest for that situation in the first place. In the case of TO, I have the Yugoslavia Wars in mind. The Bosnian War and the reports of Mr. Akashi [a war correspondent perhaps?] are incessantly on the news. We might not understand it very well, but we do know there are several different ethnic groups in Yugoslavia, and that they're fighting each other. TO is built upon a very complex world, so that if the player doesn't have such knowledge, the game might even cause rejection for all I know. But if the player does know about the Yugoslavia situation, I think he'll receive this game well. We couldn't make such a game in the past. Even if we had, it wouldn't have been accepted. But I think now we're in a period in time when it can be done. We the newcomers from Quest, wanted to try delivering that new sort of game as a challenge to ourselves.

So the only thing Yugo about it is people of different ethnicities living in close proximity/under the same banner.

By his own choice. Matsuno is still loved by a lot of fans and his name still has a lot of value, if he wanted he could do something other than shitty mobile crap.

That chart is wrong.
You start as Neutral in Chapter 1.
You can go Law or Chaos just before Chapter 2.
If you go Law, you're stuck with it for the rest of the game.
If you go Chaos, you can switch back to Neutral at the end of Chapter 2.
After Chapter 2 you're locked into your alignment, but Chapter 4 is 90% the same for all of them.

Maybe the Female Terror Knight's helmet, but it looks more like a hound. Female Dragoon's helmet isn't that bad either, they probably should have went the frogmouth styled helmet the males used. Though the dragon in flight theme of the helmet totally fits with Dragoon style. Really the puffy pants bother me more than the helmet.

It's silly that two of the most powerful generic classes are available at the start of the game, whereas lategame stuff like Beast Tamer is just average.

What a clusterfuck this turned out to be. Shit like this is why I never kickstart anything. They even got Yoshida to do some art too, and his art is fucking amazing. Matsuno should just suck it up and go back to SE where he'd have the means to produce an actual game again.

It's a great game and all but I've never seen anyone actually discuss Ogre Battle 64. Someone give me some input on that game. Make me play it. The, although predictable, fact that you have no choice but to rebel from the empire makes me not want to play it, even though it's a great game.

Valkyrie and Rune Fencer are nice ideas, but I found then to be quite shit, often doing 1 damage with both melee and magic. Holy spells are good against undead, I'll give them that, but otherwise I'd rather have a Knight. They look good though, and ever since I got captivated by Valkyrie Profile I've liked classes named valkyrie more for some reason.

Worth it to make the game overall more enjoyable.

That said it only becomes annoying if you try to get the trickiest to get characters and want to use them all (so you have to level them all from scratch). That will generally take a couple of hours of grind.

The slit in their tunic goes very high up.

In the SNES and PSX versions thanks to affinities, and other things Valkyries were all around great units with physical or magical damage. In the PSP one they're mostly support that can deal decent physical damage, you Boon of Swiftness someone, poke a couple rounds and Boon someone else. You could also use Wisps which are solid damage options.

That's wrong, it's not that these people set out to scam, it's that they're massively incompetent. Generally they're smartphone devs at best and have no understanding of what it takes to make a larger scale game. They flat out suck at managing their resources and directing the game.

Overall I think they're still a good class even if they went from offensive powerhouse to support, I don't know where people are getting that they're a weak class from. The right skills on them and they're still a versatile class.

>>385420558
It has better Zenobians like Destin and a better hawkman, Sheen.
>>385421212
I like to use my unique characters as unit leaders, because they have unique dialogue. Ultimately, the game is easy, because the enemy always uses stupid units like a wizard in the front row and a knight in the back row. You can use up to 10 units of 5 characters in a mission, so find what is the most fun to you.
It's not available until late-game, but I like to use units full of Gorgons to petrify everything. Combine them with a Cockatrice and even those immune to her "Gaze of Terror" can be stoned.
>>385421562
As long as your troops keep leveling they'll eventually meet the stat requirements. Alignment is the biggest problems. Some of the better classes need a Neutral alignment and you'll have a hard time not turning everybody Lawful because most of your enemies are Chaotic.
>>
>>385421562
>Are clerics worth it

Yes. 1 cleric helps out a lot until you get better at the game, but even then they never hurt to have. Besides you get several named ones with lower initiate.
>>
>>385421562

It's good to have both lawful & chaotic squads so you get units of each type. For example, clerics need law points in order to class change so early on your chaotic squads won't have healers in them (although you can use items). Once they become priests or paladins their alignment points don't really matter so you can put them wherever.

Just as bad honestly. It really shows the problem with kickstarter: normally to start a project you need to really plan it through to try and make sure you at least don't waste your funds but when said funds come for free and you can waste them with no repercussions at all, who cares?

To kickstart a project you should be required to have a tight, start to finish, detailed plan and budget. Not "huh we like.. have this idea, here's a drawing on a napkin, and we need money? The more the better?".

Yes and it's based around whether you capture towns with units of similar alignment or not. It's called chaos frame if you want to look it up. If you don't care what ending you get you can just play it, although some units only appear in specific routes.

>>385421756

Doesn't matter. LUCT is a much better game so you might want to start with Lodis and if you're not feeling it move on to LUCT. Can be difficult to go to Lodis after LUCT.

You get used to the gameplay pretty quickly and both games give you some overpowered units to power through if you need it. Definitely worth playing. I wish we got recent games like them.

>>385421968
There are some split paths but most of the missions are always set in stone. What characters you fight, recruit, and ending depend on the invisible "chaos frame" stat, which you influence directly by liberating or capturing strongholds.

>>385421863

Nobody cares about generics in these games and you know it, especially when the unique units tend to be way better.

>>385424035
Just make sure you kill the enemy leader last. If you kill the leader, or even just get them to about 10%, they'll retreat to get another leader or heal. Also, at first, I just sent some units out to liberate nearby towns, but that got boring, so I started pushing further and further. It's not the best way to play, but it's a lot more interesting when you try to hold your ground in enemy territory.

Try the One Vision mod. Crafting is always 100% and archers are slower. And clerics got a buff where they heal a lot more and are tougher. Fights now basically revolve around killing the enemy clerics, because healing ~100 health on knights is super annoying. I don't know how I feel about that, but I've been wanting to replay the game anyway and it was a good excuse.

There were a lot of changes, those were just the most interesting. Clerics in the base game are basically useless, besides early game exorcism. Healing with items was more useful than with clerics.

>>
>>385429130
Well, berserkers were buffed too. They got double attack, so they shit out damage when combined with sanguine assault. I'm only in chapter 3 so I don't know how they hold up for the entire playthrough, but I don't see them becoming less useful. I used dragoons (Jeunan) and valkyries (Ravness) in the base game even in endgame and they're find. Jeunan can almost oneshot dragons when dragonslayer is active.

Terror knights are unsalvageable though. They're just too slow, I agree. I don't know how you could balance that.

Valkyries and Rune Fencers only become good at the very end of the game when they gain access to tier 2 summons. Up until that point they're shitty fighters, shitty mages and shitty priests (not even that if you give them something other than holy magic, which I did with Ravness). When they reach level 43 all of a sudden then can spam summons and wreck everything for 0 MP every turn, I'm glad they actually become good at some point. I have a fetish for valkyries and valkyrie-themed characters and classes for the same exact reason you do, even named my generic valkyrie Lenneth.

That's not what happened, because they're in the same place, same company, same everything.

Their company was failing and they used the Unsung money on other projects, which is a breach of trust. Then Unsung fell into development hell. They're still around, but they're making next to no progress.

That's not "running." Stop acting like a histrionic woman. Matsuno and the backers never should have trusted these troubled fucking scummy Californian mobile developers in the first place.

I have no idea but from what I've seen in this thread they were apparently more solid all around. In the PSP version they easily end up doing 1 damage to everything but really squishy units.
I'm using Knight Commander Ozma with a whip (I know it's not the best but I like whips) and dark magic and she's actually more than decent with both melee and magic, I feel Valkyries should play like that rather than "mostly garbage until they get summons".

They were good all rounders. Not as strong as the high end male classes or magically compared to Sirens or Liches but they were solid.

Everyone had to take levels in the best dex growth class otherwise you'd miss too much though.

>>385431425
Things in the PSP version scale like shit and you need a ton of augments or high end equipment to deal decent damage. Classes that don't use dex weapons suffer in particular.

Anatomy is good but the enemies you usually do 1 damage to aren't humans.
Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying Valkyries do 1 melee damage from start to finish, there's just some moments in the game where they're going to be shit for a while. Their physical damage starts to pick up a bit around level 30 but they still have a hard time damaging tougher enemies like golems.

>And on the occasions when his inspiration's run a little dry, Yoshida sometimes resorts to drawing a very particular part of a character's anatomy to provide a starting point. "When I'm having trouble coming up with a design," Yoshida confided in a 2006 interview, "or I'm otherwise stuck, I'll start working on the back or buttocks. Using these as starting points, the ideas seem to flow very smoothly for me."

Low resolution is pretty much irrelevant on screens that small. Even the 3DSXL screen, which is absolute dog shit in terms of resolution, can look surprisingly good depending on the game. The screens aren't tiny on anything newer than a DS. They aren't cramped or uncomfortable for the most part (original 3ds excluded), and battery life is fantastic on most handhelds these days. If 3-5 hours of gaming in one session isn't enough for you then you have bigger problems anyway.
So I don't agree with you on pretty much anything. Any of the minor problems with handheld gaming are outweighed for me with portability, which I love. Plus the comfort of gaming in bed.

It's quite easy. Grinding maps have only small quantities of enemies so as long as you don't fuck up completely then there's no problem. There are also dungeons with occasionally harder maps. I can't tell you much about those because they have no story and therefore I haven't played them much.

I don't understand why and how they thought that was a good idea.
On top of being impossibly slow, there's a success rate you have to worry about. You can spend like 10 minutes slowly putting materials together for a weapon and end up failing and wasting your fucking time.
I was savescumming to avoid that, I ended up just getting a cheat so crafting can never fail because of it.

If you want to enjoy and not cheese the game, have one archer at most and a balanced party otherwise. It's not "optimal" sure, but it's more interesting and fun to try out the varied classes than it is to murder everyone before they even get close to you.

You can miss things the first time but you can replay the entire game from certain points (or from the start IIRC) once you beat the game.

Also archers are pretty OP with bows. With crossbows, not as OP but still OP. Early on magic is better for status effects. Canopous is basically the best character for a while, just give him a bow and let him snipe the target. Especially useful in mission 3(?) where you fight the necromancer.

Also get anatomy on your characters and get a weapon skill too. Try to use only one weapon type on each character (Cane the same so six characters all with 1Handed swords for example) since the weapon skill levels up accuaracy and damage

Also cleric with lobber plus whatever skill lets them use higher tier items (I think field medic ors omething) = better healer than healing spells

He doesn't need it. Usually if he can't get far enough he can target something behind the actual enemy and shoot him at point blank. If he gets hit (spoiler alert: it doesn't happen often because he's good at dodging), good, that means he's getting more TP so he can use the fucking broken finishing moves. I almost never run into enemies that can survive Deathwail and as you can see on that screencap, my crossbow it incredibly outdated because I haven't looked for a replacement yet. I don't need a shitty one-handed axe to slow him down when slinging bolts at people works better.

Tragedies of war is more interesting than "human drama". What makes humans and lizardfolk any different in the TO universe? But uniques for other races would be cool.

Each one of them was strong enough to solo the game.

Making it a large handful of units would be a lot of work. Unique portraits and sprites is good enough for me though.

How do you setup your casters, one primary type of magic with an Augment, and a secondary type?
>>
>>385446551
That's how I do it yeah. If you use Dark I don't think you'll need a second type though, it has a fuckton of tools. You'll just be unable to damage undead units if you do that.
>>
>>385446551
I usually go with one type and then I get all the other abilities I might want. If there are no good abilities left for a wizard then I teach them a second magic type.
>>
>>385446551
Just one element. There's functionally no difference between them in terms of damage, except when it comes to undead.

Is there a God after all?

>>385446551
Just one element, Sherri with Earth, Deneb with fire, Catiua with light and Warren with Dark and Dragonic magic. Also Sherri as a shaman can OS everything with her AoE in late game.

You mean Knight Commander, right? Unless there's another one I missed.

>>385446720
Having Dark as a secondary never hurts, doesn't even need Augment to be useful since you're using it for status effects.

Yeah, my bad. Also is it just me or is Ravness a monster tank? She is a White Knight and has close to 800 HP and can tank tons of hits from mage/archer before bitting the dust.

What do I do with Catiua? I just unlocked Princess, and got Absolution and Holy water, and she is currently a l18 cleric. My princess level is of course l.1, and I am heading into The Hanging Gardens. I will either have to grind it up, or she will be useless in the comming battles.

I know nothing about your alien language but change this setting. It doesn't have to be 3x, just play with it and see what works best.
>>
>>385447061
Just forget about princess for now, you'll have a much easier time grinding when world tarot is unlocked. You can do it really quickly by going back to chapter 4 over and over, the first battle in that chapter is piss easy, you just have to snipe a mage and it's over.
>>
>>385447061
As a princess she can use both magic and some holy swords (mainly Bryinhildr and Ambicion). I think it's also the only class who can use the ultimate light spell.
>>
>>385447038
Dunno, I've been using a golem for a tank and while his hp aren't the best it rarely matters when no one's capable of doing more than 1 damage to him.

What level? Closest I got to that hp is Ozma at like 500 and she's lvl 37.

>Women rule pretty much everywhere.
Did you watch the show or read the book at all? Or are you just forgetting that that's the case because every man died or the women conspired against them.

>Half the plot is about immigrating non-westerners to not-Great Britain
And how that's a terrible idea, in case you forgot how backwards the Dothraki are and pretty much everyone else is over there.

it's a goddamn shame the only way to get replies for an Ogre Battle thread is to either make it a bait thread or call it better than FFT.

It's a damn shame you couldn't get extra dialogue from redoing mission through World with characters who shouldn't be there. I mean yeah it'd probably double the script size but Ozma versus Ozma bantz would be fucking incredible.

Anon, those thread are good because they are rare, you don't want to turn this into a general.

You have Ozma vs Oz and Ozma in the 4th Chapter of CODA with Oz getting his biggest boner at the thought of killing his sister.
