La Pucelle WHAT

[Little Unicorn Boy]

Tactics.

well I have a little story for you. in La Pucelle Tactics they have a rather unique naming system.

creatures of each "enemy type" are assigned a word. for example, creatures of the Mr. Moo type (this includes Mr. Moo, a hippo-like creature, and all later palette swaps of his sprite) use the word "Hippo."

what the game will do is randomly generate a prefix or suffix to that word, and that'll be the creature's name. sometimes you'll get cool things like "Prof. Hippo", or "Hippo.org", and but most often you get bizarre or just stupid things, like "Hippo Fungus", or "Hippo Or Not".

anyhoo, the creatures of the Tiny Bat type use the word "Bit", and one of the Tiny Bats I encountered was called "Bit Theater". hehe. I... I thought that was neato.

anyhow, I bought La Pucelle Tactics because they knocked the price down 30 bucks, and I thought, hey, why not.

It's loads of fun. although I will admit I am biased, because I love the Strategy RPG genre and everything associated with it.

has anyone played this wonderful game? what about Disgaea? they were made by the same people (Nippon-Ichi).

alternatively, what are your thoughts on the Strategy RPG genre in general?

(I foresee half the replies to this topic being "I loved FF Tactics"...sigh)
