Final Fantasy XII: The Zodiac Age

Several years before the stories told in Final Fantasy Tactics. Below our eyes are the wedding of princess Ashe di Dalmasca and prince Rasler of Nabradia: a fundamental moment for the union of two families, of two kingdoms, thus signing a strong alliance. Happiness, however, does not really matter much because the Archadia Empire invades Nabradia to conquer it by taking advantage of the child’s inattention of the party.

 

During the battle, Prince Rasler loses his life, and King Dalmasca, Raminas, is so compelled to sign the surrender, going to the Nalbina Fortress. Here, however, a troupe of soldiers tries to stop the negotiations and Captain Basch, the head of the mission, first kills King Raminas and then Reks, a volunteer volunteer to defend the king and witness the betrayal of the knight. Basch, after the crazy gesture, is captured and executed, while Dalmasca falls into the hands of Archadia, starting with Rabanastre.

While the Marshal Ondore IV announces to the population what has happened, in Rabanastre, the brother of the deceased Reks has to make way for the alleyways of the city, to try to survive and not be overwhelmed by the events that hit the world.

 

Two years later Vaan, Reks’s brother, is preparing for her heroic journey. Along with the Balthier, the Viera Fran and his friend Penelo, the young man will struggle to know the truth behind the betrayal of Captain Basch. is captured and executed, while Dalmasca falls into the hands of Archadia, starting with Rabanastre.

The Final Fantasy XII plot was the concept in which Matsuno had believed very much since the time of Final Fantasy Tactics: a socio-political conspiracy that could lead to numerous doubts and questions about the rectitude of the comprimars.

 

The betrayal of Basch and the consequent murder of Reks, the peace treaty that Raminas wanted to engage in, is all elements of an elaborate narrative plot, but still keeps enthusiasts from building plots glued to the affairs. It goes without saying that in the whole of the stories offered in the Final Fantasy saga it is possible to trace, especially if you evaluate with subjectivity, more fascinating textures, with a more inspired fantasy vein, despite being found in front of a plethora of different and colorful breeds that fill the picture of Ivalice.

Nevertheless,Final Fantasy XII is able to tell a story full of feelings, albeit influenced by the presence of a protagonist who, already ten years ago, was struggling to find a space within the success story.

Unmerciful Rimasterization Before launching our battle system evaluation, we get to consider the novelties that The Zodiac Age proposes ten years away from the release of Final Fantasy XII
