Nobody saw this topic. I think either thread title is not good or I posted it on wrong time. :(

I saw it; it's just that the real time aspect turned me off; I prefer turn based combat in my RPGs. (Furthermore, I actually prefer non-tactical combat; I don't like having to micromanage positioning.)

The title is fine, it just you posted it at 12 midnight in North America, dont worry people will see the thread. I did. but give it time.

I saw it, I just don't think i'm interested with real time tactics.

Yeah, you're right. I've checked its entry on community wishlist and some people voted. Better to wait for upcoming trailers.

It would probably be good to link the kickstarter too, since their campaign definitely needs all the help it can get at this point.

Just like the other posters, I am concerned about real-time aspect. Imo, "real-time" and "tactics" are mutually exclusive terms. In video games "tactics" became synonymous with turn-based: Final Fantasy Tactics, Ragnarok Tactics, Dynasty Tactics, Suikoden Tactics, etc. Also I am not sure if same FFT would become successful if it was in real-time.

Its Kickstarter page is accessible via their official website, but I added it to OP too.

eh stratgey and jrpg ?
no thanks

besides you posted it at a time when bloodlines was released on gog

Do I see some Bahamut Lagoon in there? If so, then this might be interesting.

Edit: After seeing the gifs. Nope, saw it wrong.

I posted it several hours before Bloodlines. Then Bloodlines appeared and dominated the forum. An unexpected event! :D
