Nothing about the game has changed, it just has been re-released to give it another chance to make some money.

I always thought Final Fantasy XII is way ahead of its time when it was first released. Playing the remaster version has cemented that thought. The game still feels fresh and modern even after a decade.

The release of a Final Fantasy game is something I like to experience. No matter the quality of the title in question, there is something magical seeing such a beloved series try different things within the genre. I was always interested in seeing what mechanics would change.

One of the best Final Fantasy games ever made, elevated by its innovative battle system but let down by weak storytelling and focusing on the wrong protagonists.

The Gambit system is excellent and makes for the best combat in the series, and Japanese role-players in general; Faultless presentation and an excellent remaster

Gameplay is surprisingly one note, with almost nothing but fighting; Story, and the two main characters, are severely underwritten; It still takes too long to get all the Gambit options

Most of my Final Fantasy experiences come from the so-called golden age of Final Fantasy, the PlayStation era – so Final Fantasy XII is a bizarre left turn compared to what I'm used to from the series.

Enter an era of war within the world of Ivalice. The small kingdom of Dalmasca, conquered by the Archadian Empire, is left in ruin and uncertainty. Princess Ashe, the one and only heir to the throne, devotes herself to the resistance to liberate her country.

Final Fantasy XII: The Zodiac Age proves that once again, I find myself reviewing a remaster, and once again I find it being a game I had never played.

I never played the original but I enjoyed playing through this. I had my doubts about the gambit system, but you get the hang of it rather quickly. Mostly just focused on the main story, there are a lot of other things to do, I'll probably attempt do them on another playthrough. Great game.

With the passage of time, Final Fantasy XII has proven itself to be wildly ahead of the curve in terms of anticipating the kind of real-time, macro-focused gameplay that now permeates the RPG landscape.

Superb combat via the Gambit system; compelling character arcs; fantastic voice acting; newly introduced job system; UI tweaks; gameplay adjustments; and tons of side content

An uninteresting villain and a predictable; by-the-book plot
