Taking a break from my playthrough of the original version of FFT 1.3 (not the dumb version where black mages are WoW Shamans with Chain Lightning) and going through the vanilla FFT for some fun.
Thinking of doing a challenge run where I can only deal damage by Reflecting spells on enemies (although I can use any type of debuff/CC I want). Any other type of challenge runs I could do, aside from solo Ramza or single class only challenges?
While I'm at it, any other SRPGs that compared to Tactics Ogre: Let us Cling Together and FFT? I played Vandal Hearts, 1 was pretty bad and 2 was meh at best. FFTA was an exercise in frustration with the dumb soccer cards bullshit. Kamidori had very unsatisfying gameplay. I absolutely loathed enemies popping out of nowhere in the few Fire Emblem games I played. XCOM was just simply unfun due to how much of a RNG shitfest it was. I tried Advance Wars but got bored a few hours in since it was too easy. I've heard of Disgaea but I heard it was extremely grindy. I have yet to try Shining Force or Front Mission.
Thank god for emulators and speeding that shit up.

Stop being a weeb and play Jagged Alliance 2.

I did try it a very, very long time ago and if I remember correctly, I couldn't figure out how to leave the first map and just never went back to it. It's actually on my backlog, I'll get to it eventually. I thought Fallout Tactics was both ok and similar to JA2.

i wanted to put FFT:TWOTL on my PSP so i could play it confy in bed, but guess what? the piece of shit runs at 25 FPS, and whenever you cast a skill with a visual animation (such as a summon, Dark Sword, Holy Sword, etc.) the game slows down to 10 FPS until the animation is done.
there is a patch, to make it run at a stable 30 FPS, but it has another problem, it modifies the resolution of the game on the PSP and makes it look like a game for ants.
there's no winning with that shit.

Jagged Alliance 2 and less RPG but more S. * General (Panzer General, Fantasy General, Open General, Peoples General, etc) Battle Isle 1 - 3 , Incubation and Advanced Strategic Command

Fallout Tactics is an okay game, but JA2 is so much better.
Read the manual. It's not that long and it's really helpful.
