ROMs of the Super Famicom version are readily available, for those who read Japanese, but there's a lot of very important text in the game, both in story and gameplay. Due to the lacking state of PSX emulation when this writeup was written, disk images are practically nonexistant. The game is quite rare and fetches $40-50 in used game stores, and that's at the low end. (Cult developer Artdink helped to port the game from the Super Famicom to the PlayStation. Tactics Ogre was developed by Quest (originally for the Super Famicom) and published in the US by Atlus for the PlayStation. Perhaps, if a translation of the SNES ROM ever comes out I'll be able to comment, until then, I'll be happy wandering around killing things. I have heard from fans that the plot of TO is intricate, realistic and engaging.
He or she is gone forever.įor an SNES game, Tactics Ogre has incredible graphics, and the music is not too intrusive while still fitting the overall theme of each scene. Once one of your soldiers dies, that's it. In most RPGs a character's death can usually be reversed, in Tactics Ogre this is not so, atleast, not until very late in the game. Each square on the board also has its own innate religious alignment.Īnother important facet of Tactics Ogre is the finality of death. Likewise, water magic is more effective in a storm than on sunny day. Characters who follow the water god, for example, fare better when wading in a swamp than followers of the fire god. Besides elevation and basic physics, weather also plays a role, as does the religion of a character. This system of combat was very well thought out by the developers at Quest. (see: Tactics Ogre: Classes for more info) Dragons can assume one of 10 classes as well. These range from the simple such as Knights and Archers to the esoteric such as Liches and Dragon Slayers. Unlike most RPGs, this makes speed an enormously critical factor since a fast character not only gets to hit more, but also can run for cover more easily.įurthermore each character (sparing monster-characters) can be of one of 20 classes. Turns, as in most RPGs, are not distributed equally but instead are given out based on agility and the weight of what the character in question is carrying. Each character in a battle takes a turn making a move and, if they wish, preforming an action. Each square on that grid has varying elevation, terrain and religious characteristics. Tactics Ogre is the sequel to Ogre Battle, both are part of the Ogre Battle Saga and both are strategy RPGs, but the implementations are quite different. However, TO came long before FFT was even a twinkle in some Japanese dude's eye, and, infact, FFT was created by Quest at the request of Square so that they could weave the Final Fantasy legacy and the Tactics Ogre game style together. Tactics Ogre is a strategy RPG much like Final Fantasy Tactics. However, I have only had experience with the SNES ROM version, and, since this version is in Japanese, this writeup will be sketchy.
