I have Tactics Ogre: LUCT on PSP and tried playing it once; I enjoyed it at first, but it quickly ramped up into being FFT: Trollolol Edition. Every other battle is an escort mission that puts Riovanes Rooftops to shame in how badly the odds are stacked against you, and how suicidal the AI is on the escort. I waited forever for the game to make available a basic revive spell, and it costs over 100 frickin' MP. The difficulty curve ramped up so fast that my toughest characters were only doing single-digit damage to enemies, and my only option for leveling was random encounters with a swarm of undead warriors that I literally could not kill fast enough before they regenerated (because unlike FFT, it's a 100% certainty that undead will revive after three rounds, not just a chance).

I'm not exactly new to how SRPGs work, so either there was some fundamental aspect of the game that eluded me, or the people who claim that LUCT is the GOAT are so far above my head skill-wise that I shouldn't even bother trying to reach their level.

The PSP version is probably the worst version. It changed and added a ton of shit to the game, arguably not for the best.

A ton of class skills. Should be cool, but most are absolutely obnoxious to level up.

Tying levels to job classes, instead of characters. So, I hope you don't want to enjoy your new unique characters right out of the gate. Those White Knights who have finally joined you will be at level 1.

And the extremely tedious crafting system for gear and items.

Also, for those Undead, if you don't want them to get back up, you need to have a cleric permanently remove them with Exorcism.
