Currently playing FF Type 0 HD on PC. Having never played PSP version before, i say its 8/10 game easily as a FF game. Game reminding me a lot about Final Fantasy VIII lol. Fun combat, Tons of class zero playable chars/ unlockable chars, tons of side missions, vast skills and magic upgrades. Only con i see game requires multiple playthroughs/ grinding to aquire everything. Also Have to use PS 3 DS 3 for PC controls.

Whats your impression on Final Fantasy Type O HD warriors? :)

It's only fun if you are not a dudbro. Seriously, it is a complex game.

I really like what I played of it so far. Definitely a game I'm jumping back into after I beat The Last of Us: Remastered and GTAV.

Honestly? It's kind of fun- but it looks like shit. I didn't think it was very cool of them to remake only like 50% of the character models. If you're going to remake the main characters, remake the rest- because it just looks like a half-assed job.

I enjoyed the game, but the ending sections were an annoying slog.

It had its ups and downs, but the story, characters, and voice acting were some of the worst I've experienced in a while, sorry to be debby downer

I feel like im enjoying it on the basis that it's reminding me of how much I enjoyed VIII, rather than playing it solely on the qualities of Type-0.

I am finding it pretty mediocre. I think there could have been a great game here, with a structure, grand scenario and setting to build on. It's just worn down by its native PSP-ness, with boxy, small level designs, the grounded feel of movement, the one dimensional mission objectives, how effects are applied quite intrusively and just how the camera works.

Combat is nicely responsive, but feels spammy with how thinly spread abilities are across the roster, with only a few having interesting modifiers/chains to their skills. Dodging also feels mindless as it's implemented in a forgiving way. But I like the enemy designs in that they're pretty mobile, have the right telegraphs, have behaviors that you can cognitively respond to, and the game rewards you with responding to them through the Killsight mechanic. That's all good and all, but it just sucks that the camera just cant keep up with everything to truly accomodate them.

In terms of just general combat depth, I would have liked abit more of a physical approach to it (like, being able to pull, push, launch etc). Or just some more dynamic flexibility with a combat system built around party based combos to incentivize active character switching - giving the combat more depth than it currently has.

The exposition seems all over the place in delivery, pacing and production values. It makes the story difficult to follow at the start (or even take seriously). But I dig the scale of what is going on. While the levels are small, the reintroduction of the overworld gives it abit more of an involving visual representation on what is happening.

There's more I can criticize. Thankfully, you can skip the hilariously bad Sortie missions and filler quests.

So yeah, pretty underwhelming game opinion from a total dudebro.

I've been playing it on PS4 and was fully prepared for a very average experience but I love it. Excellent combat and tons of ways to upgrade the characters. Really good game.

It's not a bad game, the combat is interesting because you can pick the cadets that match your playstyle (Cater best cadet).

I started skipping the cut-scenes halfway through, though. What the hell is up with that plot?

I liked the combat, and the implementation of all the characters in combat. The soundtrack is phenomenal too.

However the story was a mess, had some good ideas, but the characters that inhabited it with their bad voice acting was awful. A fairly large portion of the side missions were tedious as well.

Overall I had fun playing it, but it was pretty flawed.

I installed it yesterday but haven't played it yet, I still have to finish GTA V and maybe will jump on MGS V soon. Will probably take me a while to actually play it.

Absolutely terrible, I couldn't bear much of it. The voice acting and the story line where just outrageously bad, the characters are super forgettable and have stupid names. Even if I where to completely ignore the core element of the FF franchise(story) and go solely on the gameplay. The combat isn't that fun and feels just like another button masher with zero depth and it's super grindy(like korean MMO grindy). The music isn't really all that great either. I would play FFVIII a million times over before I ever touched this garbage again. This game actually makes FFXIII look pretty decent.

I liked the gameplay. The dialogue was cringeworthy and the plot went off the rails completely in act 3. One of the easiest platinum trophies ever too.

Gameplay and everything else is terrible and repetitive. The RTS minigames might be the worst feature since smoke grenades that make you fall in Gears of War 2.

Easily one of the worst FF games to date, only slightly above the mess that is the FFXIII saga. And after 3rd Birthday I believe Tabata is another Toriyama... Poor of FFXV.
