    I've never been one for FFT games. I don't care for RTS games in general. What is it that people like about these games? Is there ever a plot or character development?

    Technically, FFT is sRPG not RTS. FFT implements a turn based system that is based on your character's speed, unlike other sRPGs which alternate between player and computer turns. In a way sRPGs are sorta like chess. The playing field is turned into a board where each square is a certain distance horizontally and vertically from your character and your movement is based on characters stats which are affected by basic stats, equipment, abilities and jobs. As far as I know though it might seem similar to an RTS it is not really.

    FFT isn't an RTS :P RTS's are like the original warcraft games and the Civilization games.

    FFT, i've started playing it but it hasn't really caught my attention of yet... I found out finally where agrias's name came from though ?

    I've played a bit of Warcraft II and some Middle-Earth RTS and a Mana RTS . . . hated them all. But I forced myself to finish the Mana RTS even though I hated it because I'm a Mana fan.

    Any other fans of Mana here?

    I only love Secret of Mana. The other mana games haven't impressed me much, but I haven't played Children of Mana yet. I doubt it'll ever compare to SoM.

    The Civilization games are turn based.

    I Don't know either. Don't you think the game should have its own SOUNDTRACK?

    Children of Mana is . . . meh.

    Secret of Mana is definitely the best of the Mana games, but Seiken Densetsu III is a close second. Sword of Mana is pretty decent. And I seem to be the only person on the planet that likes Dawn of Mana.

    What sort of soundtrack would The Game have?
