Which Is The Better JRPG Game? Bravely Second End Layer Or Final Fantasy V.

[Tsukishima]

If you can emulate Saturn, opt for it instead for Ogre Battle.

OB64 is placed right after it. Tactics Ogre is also plot related but plays entirely differently. For Tactics Ogre you want PSP. Knight of Lodis is a prequel to Tactics Ogre.

Edit: The PS version has an ugly font and terrible performance, it's not just a matter of content.

thank you for the comprehensive list of the games to play!

I can run a Saturn emu just fine, so I guess I'll go for the Saturn port

Tactics Ogre has almost nothing in common with Ogre Battle other than certain characters with same names, like Canopus, Lans etc... but if anything its the prototype for Final Fantasy Tactics

It's excellent, really. You get loading only on the initial boot up. The PS version loads for every battle, and missions are long so... yeah you can imagine, right? The sprites also look better on the Saturn, both on the map and in combat.

Mechanically no. Plot wise, the connections are there. That is to say, they aren't just chuckle cameos, it's all connected.

yeah Ogre Battle 64 takes place later and its one of the only ten or so games I like on the N64 up their with Sin and Punishment, F Zero X, Bangai-O, the N64 version of Mystery Dungeon/ Shiren the Wanderer... but it plays a bit differently yet maintains the overall style.. but I dont think the soundtrack is as good and the art isnt as good imo... but it was during that whole pre rendered fad of the era

Geist, I might very well just fall in love with you, You already had me at Sin and Punishment from our conversation yesterday but ... Bangai-O? Badump, badump ...

Are you gonna say Extreme-G next? Cause that's one of my absolute favourite games on the N64 too

I actually think the music quality of OB 64 and the graphics are quite comparable, one of the few pre-rendered games I can look at without automatically feeling repulsed by it.

The connections only truly hold cleanly through certain endings (the same problem SMT has, really), but I don't remember the details. There is a YT channel called Warren Report that does a great job explaining it all, though!

Since I played Extreme G quite a bit, does that mean I get a chance? haha.

Haha you're good, I meant it as a joke anyway.

I love this game so much and is why I'm so blindly obsessed for futuristic racer games, the bikes themselves feels like something Syd Mead has drawn too

Just one more note. The reason Ogre Battle is called Episode V is because the saga ran for much longer, since time immemorial, but no games cover Episodes I through IV, even though lore exists for them.

Hard to say what the creator's intent was, but maybe, yes.
