Final Fantasy Tactics Advance
Final Fantasy Tactics Advance overview
Final Fantasy Tactics Advance synopsis
In stark contrast to the original
Final Fantasy Tactics for the PlayStation, which portrayed a misogynistic, exploitative, war-ravaged world, Final Fantasy Tactics Advance is ostensibly about the adventures of three ordinary kids from St. Ivalice (look familiar?) whose world is transformed into one of mystery and fancy. Is "Final Fantasy" just a game?
