Will this truly be THE final fantasy? Nope
Final Fantasy 12 marches right into unknown territory by offering a plot so thick with politics you would enjoy watching Prime minister of Canada Stephen Harper analyze the Canadian budget more than trying to understand whats going on here. Some kid who dresses like he was kicked out of a gay bar for looking "too gay" gets caught up with a hot rabbit eared "Vierra" and some sort of pirate guy and goes on a political adventure to take back the throne from some long haired dude so such and such can take place. the already perfectly run kingdom can become run by some dumbass blonde with zero experience points in running anything. Unlike Bioware games, you cant get laid in this game, leaving you to search rule 34 on Vaan Basch rosenburg in order to get the most out of the confusing story-line. Unlike previous Final fantasy games, this game has a great battle system that requires much more than simple menu selections for 40+ hours. This game is hella hard, sorry noobs, there isnt any easy setting. Prepare to get your porkchops shredded then put into the microwave when you get 12 hours in and you dont know what your doing because character progression needs to be constantly paid attention to. The boss battles are truly epic, they make you shit your pants then try to force you to eat it, luckily you get a team of homosexuals and ladies who look like they would have never been in any real fight before unless it was a fight to decide who gets to use the ladies bathroom first. This is truly a great addition to your PS2 library, just dont forget to grab a strategy guide before you dive in so you know what the hell youre doing.
