Looking to ask for people’s favorite tactical RPGs because I have played a bunch but never really gotten into any. XCOM, Fire Emblem, Disgaea, Advance Wars, Fallout, etc.
Looking to see what other people love so I can convince myself to try something new or try something again.
Out of what I’ve played, Into the Breach was my favorite. Very dense, and the positioning is really important. The only one I actually finished.
Tactical RPG’s are my favorite genre of games, and Tactics Ogre (not Ogre Battle) in any of it’s many iterations is my favorite. No game is perfect but it does so many things so, so well. Matsuno’s magnum opus. The latest version, Tactics Ogre Reborn added high quality voice acting which I really love.
I’ve had my eye on Tactics Ogre Reborn for a while now, but haven’t bought yet since it seemingly won’t go below 50% off, and the reviews say some of the later missions are pretty stacked against you, forcing you to play a certain way. Thoughts on this?
There’s a hilariously drawn out postgame/endgame challenge dungeon type thing that’s like 100+ straight battles.
But the main game is solidly worth the full price, quite honestly. Any sale you find is just helping your budget.
