La Pucelle tactics

[Raven]

This is a new tactics game for the PS2 I would like to Know what your opinion of this game is.

Well... La Pucelle: Tactics isn't that new, there is a new game by Nippon Itchi called Phantom Brave which I didn't like that much but that is totally another story to talk about.

In La Pucelle, you start with a sixteen years old boy... umm... girl with her little pesky cute brother and beautiful annoying instructor, and of course you will get to meet a lot of other interesting characters or get the chance to make your enemies ally with you.

The story of the game is a very touchy one with a lot of plots and unpredictable twists that will make you excited and eager to unfold, the game also has a lot of event where you will find yourself laughing like crazy, jumping and shouting from your seat, feeling overwhelmed from a love or happy scene, or even crying and weeping from a sad death involving or parting from someone scene.

The graphics of this game is beautiful though it is in 2D, the background of the city and dungeons also look decent and well done even when they all look the same sometimes,and the music is quite interesting and does fit the scenes they are played in with some of the soundtracks sticking in ones mind.

The battle system is unique and not like normal RPGs... duh it's an Tactical RPG, but also infused with elements that makes it so unique than other TRPGs, the pairing feature is also cool where it adds another option for taking an enemy down with more than one player, and there is also the Dark Portals feature where you can eliminate hoards of vile creatures by making a circle around them then performing a powerful elemental attack called Miracles.

Another thing that makes this game so great is the different characters with the different backgrounds, in this game you can always count on seeing queens, kings, princes, princesses, pirates, priests, priestesses, knights, thieves, witches, vampires, zombies and other kind of characters coming from fairytales or medieval era.

There is also the voice actings which in my opinion were pretty great, and fitting for their own perspective characters, and the ability to change voices to Japanese is also a good thing when you get bored from listening to the English voices.

La Puclle: Tactics is a great game that really deserves playing through or at least trying, and I am sure it won't make you regret the time or the money you spent on it ^_^.

The only Strategy RPG that kept my interest was Final Fantasy Tactics & Ogre Battle, I was just expecting a mediocore game at best BUT, I was wrong I love this game none other like it, plenty of plot twists & moments that get you at the edge of your seat.

I heard it was by the same people who did Disgaea...that game was pretty good, but too hardcore for my tastes.

My guess is that you'll enjoy it most if you have assloads of free time on your hands and are obsessed with improving characters.

Actually, La Pucelle Tactics was made first before Disgaia--which is why one character from La Pucelle Tactics makes a cameo in Disgaia. Somehow, Disgaia was released earlier in the USA.

The cameo belongs to Prier herself. It doesn't look a lot like her, though. there are some similarities, but not much.

Similarly, Baal, Laharl, Flonne, Etna, Mid-boss, and Prinny X make cameos in Phantom Brave.

Ah... that sounds interesting, maybe I'll continue Disgaea after all just to see these things for myself.

Thanks for the information Ced The Lad :) .

This game was quite great when I first played it. I first played Disgaea a bit, but then decided I best play La Pucelle first, considering its gameplay elements would be sub-par since it was made first. This has allowed me to enjoy it more. As you all know I buy and play many games at the same time, and this game is no exception. I have only played several hours or so, and then I moved on to another game. Not out of boredom, or hatred for the game, it is just how I work LOL.

Having just started to play this game I have come to enjoy it a great deal though the characters in particular so far in the first chapter of the game I have found to be rather annoying. I mean the main character comes off way too much as the spoiled brat self absorbed type. It makes a change from how the usual heroes for games act but then again so did it happen in Disgaea.
