to everyone complaining about the level cap; On your first playthrough it is not apparent but it is lifted at the end of the game, and post-game you can replay the story at any point where you can make different choices. Your level is synced to that point in the story but you keep your post game skills spells and items. The cap is actually just a very smart redesign that is just poorly explained, and it helps prevent you from powering through old encounters but lets you bring your cool new stuff to them.

oh yeah okay so like it's a really good game, but they changed a bunch of mechanics and classes and whatnot. So if you like the older versions for character building and class swapping, ehhhhh maybe do some research before you buy this. I tried the PSP version, I'ma be real with you, I got a day job, I prefer this version. They basically cut out grinding by introducing a level cap, and the skills and magic are a lot more limited too which I'm not mad about. They made the moment to moment gameplay more engaging, and they cut out the shit that wastes your time. Truly I do prefer this version, but I also feel like they shoulda just remastered the PSP version and sold us a new entry with these mechanics instead. But here we are. And I'm not mad about it. Your mileage may vary. 50 bucks is asking too much, should be 30 tops. Get it on sale.

I’ll be the first to admit that Tactics Ogre: Reborn is not a game for everyone - but for those willing to commit, it honestly offers one of the richest tactical RPG experiences out there. At its core, TO:R is a tactical/strategy take on the JRPG formula, set against a backdrop of high fantasy and political intrigue. You command up to 12 units on an isometric battlefield, manually deciding every movement, attack, and ability. Battles can be long, repetitive and demanding, with loads of filler encounters sometimes padding progression between key story moments. It’s a grindy game, ,and unapologetically so. While most modern titles clock in a 30-40 hours, Tactics Ogre can easily demand 150-200 hours, especially if you aim for BiS gear and deep dives into the myriad of endgame dungeons/content that the game has to offer. Beneath this demanding gameplay, however, lies one of the most compelling stories in the genre. This is a tale of civil war, betrayal and ideology, where the protagonist Denam navigates three distinct routes with radically different outcomes. Despite being decades old, the narrative still resonates today, offering sobering commentary on the atrocities of war and the divides of class and power. The lore is further enriched by an in-game codex that gives context to nearly everything: even minor enemy commanders get their own entries, which honestly fleshed out the world in impressive detail. This remake further elevates the storytelling with full voice acting. I personally played in Japanese with English subs (cos #subsnotdubs), and while the performances were excellent, I did notice that some English text didn’t quite match the spoken lines on occasion. The overall intent and meaning were preserved, but the discrepancies were admittedly distracting. For completionists, be warned: 100%-ing Tactics Ogre: Reborn is a major undertaking. You’ll need to play through all three major routes (at least till Chapter 3), defeat the final boss twice (once on Law and once on Chaos/Neutral), and also tackle the massive 100-floor Palace of the Dead. A special mention regarding Palace of the Dead - you’ll have to complete it in Chapter FOUR and not CODA, otherwise the relevant story battles will not show up. Only the first CODA episode is required for achievements, thankfully. By the 100-hour mark, I was fatigued enough to skip the rest of the bonus content and simply wrap up my completion run. That said, if you’re up to the challenge, here are a couple of resources that proved invaluable during my playthroughs (and trust me, you’ll need it given how expansive this game is): - https://www.reddit.com/r/Tactics_Ogre/comments/10ahh5o/ive_made_a_chronologically_recruiting_visual/ (A visual guide for recruiting all characters listed in chronological order) - https://www.neoseeker.com/tactics-ogre-reborn/walkthrough (Neoseeker which has pretty extensive walkthroughs, guide maps to end-game dungeons, a farming/drop-rate guide and other assorted useful stuff). In summary, Tactics Ogre: Reborn is not just a game - it’s an investment. The grind can be exhausting, but the payoff is an unforgettable story, a richly built world, and some of the most rewarding tactical gameplay ever made. If you’re a fan of strategy RPGs and have the patience for a long journey, this is absolutely worth your time.

There are 3 things that I want to mention. One is movement. If you want to conquer this game you need to understand where to move. So many times I've had my unit piling up in front of small opening while the enemy mages and archers shower them with death. Don't let this happen to you. Second is recruitment/story route progress. This game has a lot of branches and choices that can affect the route you're in, which characters you can recruit, and which ending you get. I went in blind and of course I get the "bad" ending. If you care about it, check out guides. Third, the RNG. It's very frustrating when you're being screwed by it. So just get ready for it. Other than that, it's a very addicting SRPG. I don't think I'd call it amazing, but it's pretty good.

Yeah it's pretty good. Most of the negative reviews are from long-time players that didn't like the gameplay changes, but as a first-time player I didn't even notice anything was wrong. This is a really unique video game with particularly intricate gameplay systems, and I would recommend it based on that alone. I don't have much negative to say about the story, either. It tackles some really complicated subject matter from a variety of interesting angles. The villain writing especially stands out. When they aren't sympathetic, they're at least as evil as you are, just from a different perspective. Like JRPGs? Play it. Like tactics? Play it. The steam review system does a disservice to this gem.
