Tactics Ogre is very good. I had never played it until the remaster, despite being a huge fan of the genre (I did play a TO game for gba though). If you enjoyed FFT you’ll be right at home; I put the TO story on the same level as FFT.

Yeah Outriders was actually pretty decent, especially if you could get a group together to play co-op. Some of the powers are very fun.

I understand that it's *technically* a worse game than Destiny 2, but I had a lot more fun with it.

That's more of an XCOM-like really.

it's not really similar to xcom at all despite the first tutorial battle trying to make it seem that way.

XCOM is more well known for cover mechanics and chance-based ranged attacks than FFT.

You raised my hopes and dashed them quite expertly, bravo sir!

Haven't had a chance to play the demo yet but this game looks pretty dope. It looks like its XCOMish as well.

Unless you mean it's extremely reliant on those in comparison, that basically says the same for tactics.

I would suppose it's a more a Disgaea than anything, since it's largely about extreme menuing/setup to break the game.
This is a billion times more useful for deciding whether I want to try the game (no) than whether it has gunfights with cover and hit chances vs tile heights and facing. I loving love the Firaxis XCOMs and Troubleshooter looks like it doesn't have basically anything I liked about them.

Similarly, I really liked Fae Tactics for its puzzly nature and open party selection with no grinding, and hated Fell Seal for being FFT style focused on building out your dream characters over the fights themselves.

Bundle of the Panzer Dragoon and HOTD remakes - $6

Kind of wanted the old style of HOTD and that is a short game anyway. You can beat it in 40 minutes.

Troubleshooter is 95% FFT and 5% XCOM. It is much more of a character-based strategy RPG where the strategy is building out your characters by mixing and matching abilities. To be clear, it is a very, very good character-based strategy RPG, but if you're looking for XCOM, that's not what it is.

I bought Everspace 2 on a whim. I liked the first game well enough and didn't have a problem with the roguelike structure of it, but I'm bad at games and even lowered difficulty was still frustrating (no interest in getting good anymore I just wanna vibe in reaction-based games). The sequel solves that but was actually making me motion sick so I might refund. I don't typically get a lot of motion sickness in games, but it does actually play more like Descent than a space sim and for whatever reason Descent back in the day was hell on me. If anyone has figured out a solution that isn't dramamine to that sort of thing I'd be interested because I would rather keep playing the game.

It happens whether you're playing in first person in the cockpit, or 3rd person with the camera behind the ship?

Does it only happen when you're playing one of the zippy mobile ships? You could maybe try playing as the slow bomber or drone ship.

It's sort of like street fighter, but turn based. Going to be in early access til next year or so since hand drawn sprites take a lot of time and I only have one guy to draw them. In spite of that we've still got a lot of new sprite art coming through the pipe soon.

I didn't think about third person since I've always played these games from the cockpit for immersion. I'll give it a shot. I'm still < 2 hour refund so I've only flown around in the starter ship.

Are there any recent Final Fantasy Tactics-likes with better-than-Mixed reviews with any sort of discount right now? I bounced hard off of Fell Seal because of the level design and weird dev stance on grinding, I'm a hog for Disgaea but 7's at a hard 0% off, and my most recent additions to my wishlist for this genre (Crimson Tactics, Arcadian Atlas) have aggressively mixed reviews.

Is it time for me to just buy Tactics Ogre Reborn and accept that I'm picking up a remaster of a game I already played a ton of when it first came out?

This one is SNES Ogre Battle https://store.steampowered.com/app/1488200/Symphony_of_War_The_Nephilim_Saga/

I also really like Tactics Ogre, which has a few QOL upgrades from the original.
