Tactics Advance While not directly a sequel to Tactics, the Advance version took the battle style from its parent game and brought it to the GBA.

No, I do not agree that Final Fantasy Tactics Advance was the worst game ever. It wasn't THAT bad. xD

However, it was very childish and options were very limited, leading to a huge negative opinion on the game. I for one hated the jobs system. All the jobs were spread out to ALL the races. There were no female characters except Vieras available for combat besides Ritz.(She pretty much counts as one.)

I also disliked that Bangaas got all the powerhousing jobs. It was pretty annoying. They also get the Materia Blade, which oddly enough... A human character can't learn the Ultima technique from.

The battle system also seemed like it was poorly thought out. I mean really, you get yourself screwed out of a turn if you decide to get in water and stay there. That was pretty lame.

It was also a bit of a nuisance that for some of the races, one of the abilities for example... Vieras. Without a doubt Reflex was their best counter ability. They did not get the same abilities as most other jobs, which was quite annoying.

You must not have ever played X-2 then....

TA is far from being a bad game, it's actually very good as far as gameplay goes, although it's way too easy. However, the story is just so juvenile and craptastic that it's a damn disgrace. I actually remember one mission where you had to SAVE TREES from being cut down and another where you had to SAVE TIGERS from being poached. I do not want environmentalist shit preached to me in a FF game.

And Marche definitely wins the award for biggest douche in the universe. He and his friends discover a wonderful, mystical world where they are no longer nobodies but can actually be warriors and other cool shit, they can make names for themselves, and Mewt is a prince instead of an invalid. But for some inane reason, Marche wants to make Ivalice disappear and drag himself and his friends back to the real world. His only argument for it?

"thIs wrLd is f4ke We ne3d to LiVe our r34l sHitE liv3s inst3ad mEwt u neeD to B par4lyzed i c4re sOoOo muCh 4 u gUyz lolzorz"

Seriously, what kind of "friend" wants to ruin a wonderful world created where he and his buddies can be somebody? The biggest douche in the universe, that's who.

For the record, I don't think he ever found his mother in Ivalice, Ronin. Being as young as he is, of course he's a douche. He's only like, 12 or 13. And mummy is probably a very important aspect in life at that time. ;D

You can't honestly expect such a young character to be able to so unjust and not care.

Marche was a realist. he new they were living in a false reality, and I would have to admit it would be quite scary knowing that information.

And IMO I think the story for the game was great, after it started to pick up of course. it did have a slow start, but in the end the plot worked out.

Oh i'm sure he was a mamma's boy, he looks like one. But being 12 or 13, puberty would have just hit him and with all those Viera around...it's amazing he didn't want to stay just for the eye candy. And false reality or no, Mewt was a paraplegic in real life, but he was a prince who could walk in Ivalice. If i were Marche i woulda been pretty damn happy for Mewt and then tried to buddy up with him even more.

Realist schmealist, if i was Marche i'd take the false reality where i could be somebody cool over a crap reality where i'm the outcast at school and so are my friends.

.
um I think you combined a few characters there. Mewt was perfestly normal in the real world. it was Marche's brother that couldn't walk. and don't forget that there was something for them all to go back to, because when they got back everything started to go their way.

I havent played mythic quest. But from the general series I though X was the weakest, and I still loved it!

Oop, you're right, my bad

I do recall that all of them were kind of the loser/outcast types though...

yeah that was in the begining. the point made at the end is that they were all able to grow out of it and become a part of the mix.
