Rolling with three party members can seem at odds with that full list of fourteen, especially since only the party members in combat get experience from battle. (Camera hijinks ensue when playing as an eidolon, but it's more than playable.) This is before getting into trinity attacks (all three party members attack as one) and eidolons, which temporarily trade cadets for summons who are directly controlled by the player. Harvesting is important, and though it leaves the character open to attack, the moment of harvest produces a powerful area attack. Each character has their weapon type, with some as varied as a Flute that guides a Navi like creature into attacking while others let their bearer perform a Final Fantasy "Jump." Combat is real-time, with an Ability Gauge acting like stamina along with HP, MP and consumable items.Ĭombat is about using the basic melee and the dodge early and often, with special attacks, offensive spells, and defensive magic peppered in at interval. The large number of playable characters is more impactful for gameplay as opposed to story. 'Type-0' has a story, complete with crystals, magics, nations, airships, teenagers, etc., but it's all colored by the same grimness found in works like ' The Sky Crawlers.' (Similar themes, not story.) By bringing in notes of 'Slaughterhouse-Five,' the game is able to mostly balance the global conflict with how it affects the 14 members of Class Zero. Monstrous things that blur the line between machine and man cry "this sucks!" as they are killed for the third time. The students cast spells that let them spy on the private, changing-room moments of their instructor. Yet, as entire cities are vaporized, there's still room for the smaller things.

And before this review gets completely derailed by trying to explain how one would reasonably go about porting a 3D PSP game to the PS4, suffice to say that being compared favorably to 'Peace Walker' puts 'Type-0' in the upper echelon of PSP games in spite of the camera and control issues.īack to the game, the world of 'Type-O' is a war-torn meat grinder, wherein a magic user can lose their powers with a flick of switch, and then, while trying to escape their carnage with their beloved Chocobo, be gunned down so violently, that man and beast become one great big meaty stain in the middle of the road.

If 'Type-0' had been developed for the PS3 or PS4, the entire scope of the game would have been changed. There are plenty of enhancements, but the PSP legacy is always there on some level.įor me, this is neither surprising nor regrettable. Much like ' Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker HD,' or ' Danganronpa: Trigger Happy Havoc,' that PSP DNA affects the visuals (more on that later), audio, controls, presentation, etc. This is 'Final Fantasy Type-0 HD.' It's a great big world, but it's a world that was built for the PSP. The prisoner doesn't react, he's still as a statue, and yet I know, he must be wondering why I keep attacking when I should be calm. I have to be very close to the prisoner when I press "X," or else, as does happen, I will perform a Dark Nebula attack. In accepting his surrender, all I need do is accept whatever ration, or other item he might give me, and his war will be over. I sigh, wait a moment, and with the same command, perform the harvest ritual.įrom there I walk over to the closest surrendering enemy. Unfortunately, the command to harvest is identical to the command to melee attack with my scythe, and I viciously attack the empty air above the body.

Seeing this, the other enemy soldiers half-heartedly turn to run, but though they have been party to a series of merciless acts against our beloved Dominion of Rubrum, their own honor comes to bear on the situation right there on the battlefield, and each one stops, disarmed with hands up, waiting.īefore attending to the surrendering soldiers, I go to absorb the fallen enemy's essence, which should restore some MP and yield some variant of the mystical Phantoma. With my giant ornate scythe in hand, I dash forward, and in one stroke, finish the leader. As the enemy leader readies his weapon, I have a chance at a KillStrike. I dodge past his shoulder canon, and I wait a fraction of a second.


Instead of attacking the imperial troopers one by one, I rush past to what is obviously their leader. Leading a party of three cadets, I encounter our nation's new enemy, the Imperial Army.

Let me welcome you to the world of 'Final Fantasy Type-0 HD.' As a crimson cloaked cadet, a member of the elite Class Zero, I have certain responsibilities, with which comes a certain code that is both hard to define, and hard to escape.
