I like how Judge Zecht is respected by even Judge Bergan. It makes it interesting to think about how much change Reddas went through after the incident. (since Zecht = Reddas)
Simon Templeman, voice of Zargabaath, Kain from the Legacy of Kain series and others definitely doesn't show up enough in stuff. The man is one of the best voice actors ever.
That's the biggest problem I have with FF12; you're stuck babysitting princess Whatshername and kiddo mcbrat while the Archadian characters are playing Game of Thrones in their corner. Vayne, Larsa, Cid, Gabranth and the other judges... I couldn't care less about Vaan and Ashe.
You know there’s like 4 other main characters right? I really don’t get why people make such a big deal out of Vaan and Penelo. Sure they’re obviously out of place but they’re not the focus like at all.
I've finished this game 3 times and each time i see Zargabaath's armour i can't help but be amazed at how awesome it looks! Gabranth's comes a close second. This is easily the most mature final fantasy. One of the best i think :)
Yes he designed for tactics ogre, final fantasy tactics, vagrant story, ... You liked the story ? I loved it too, it's so mature and elegant..i love ffxii ! The music aswell....actually i dig "phon coast" and "ending theme"...so powerful !
He's the costume designer?! Holy shit, I want one of those! Robe, helmet, weapon and all. Haven't played the game, just listen to the music and digg the story. I gotta see this again!
Ghis had plans of his own Drace distrusted Vayne and supported Larsa Bergan was more loyal to Vayne, more of a bloodhound Zargabaath was more loyal to the Empire than an Emperor.
@Gabranth86 If theres 15 Judges and 5 Judge Magisters, It'd make sense. Though you do kill at lest 2 Judges in-gane (much to my shane I've never completed 12) Abd I know that Gabranth, Drace, Ghis and Bergan all die in one way or another. So thats 13 judges and a Judge magister left.
Judge Zecht, Jecht, Yes nobody should talk that way about Lord Jecht, Haha I just had to make that comparison also if you replay it at the .34 mark it sounds Like Jecht in a way.
Yes, very unconventional for a Final Fantasy game. This is trully a stunningly well executed game all-round, a real step in the right direction for Square Enix. Shame it all went downhill in FF13
are they really the villains? think about it, they are serving the empire which they were born into and taught to support. they were doing what they were taught was right.
+Luke Raven Basch was intended to be the main character but initial public reaction was negative so they went with Vaan instead. Apparently people didn't want a strong warrior type character as the main character.
Bergan: "...I still think my helmet looks the fanciest." Zargabaath: "You look like steam is about to blow out of your faceplate. Mine is much fancier." Drace: "Behold my testicle helmet!" Gabranth thank the developers for giving him the only good-looking helmet.
I like how they make Drace look feminine, even thought she is wearing like a tonne of fucking armour. They should not have had those wing like things beneath her hips, because they make the hips look less rounded and more vertical. Gay scene though, I hate it when the villains are discussing things, without the heroes being there to hear it.
The Judges were the best thing to happen to Final Fantasy in a good, long while.
Still the best voice acting in all JRPGs. FF XV devs should takes notes.
This is too good for Final Fantasy.
I have always admired the Judges armor and their voice acting is some of the best.
god like voice acting
Who else's favorite is Zargabaath? I do!
seeing the judges bring me ptsd from trial mode level 100
I want:
Zargabaath's Armor,
Bergan's Voice
Gabranth's Look
How is the voice acting so mature for this game.
i want to be a judge like that
judge Zargabaath face :D
final fantasy has always had these scenes and they've all been important for character development
I would KILL to see what Zecht's armor looked like! :D He's one my faves in the game, I'd have loved for a flashback of him as a Judge
i love the designs for all the judges armour! XD
And Zecht was more loyal to the people than emperor. :)
played this game a few times, never paid attention to the fact that Judge Zecht is Reddas. I couldn't imagine him following Vaynes orders.
I have to say- of every cutscene in Final Fantasy XII, this one is burned into my memory the most. I don't know why.
I like how Judge Zecht is respected by even Judge Bergan. It makes it interesting to think about how much change Reddas went through after the incident.
(since Zecht = Reddas)
God I wish they would make action figures for all the Judge Magisters.
Kain; King of Nosgoth
I like how this sort of ties in with final fantasy tactics and tactics advance
Simon Templeman, voice of Zargabaath, Kain from the Legacy of Kain series and others definitely doesn't show up enough in stuff. The man is one of the best voice actors ever.
Zargabaath = Worker of Secrets in Infinity Blade II.
All these VA's are practically tailor-made for characters in armor. SO AWESOME.
they have the most fucking awesome armor i have ever seen.
That's the biggest problem I have with FF12; you're stuck babysitting princess Whatshername and kiddo mcbrat while the Archadian characters are playing Game of Thrones in their corner. Vayne, Larsa, Cid, Gabranth and the other judges... I couldn't care less about Vaan and Ashe.
psychee1 Blame SquareEnix for this.
You know there’s like 4 other main characters right? I really don’t get why people make such a big deal out of Vaan and Penelo. Sure they’re obviously out of place but they’re not the focus like at all.
I've finished this game 3 times and each time i see Zargabaath's armour i can't help but be amazed at how awesome it looks! Gabranth's comes a close second. This is easily the most mature final fantasy. One of the best i think :)
Gabranth was loyal to Vayne but always doubted/regreted his actions and redeemped them later on
Yes he designed for tactics ogre, final fantasy tactics, vagrant story, ...
You liked the story ? I loved it too, it's so mature and elegant..i love ffxii ! The music aswell....actually i dig "phon coast" and "ending theme"...so powerful !
Zargabaath's looks,
Zargabaath's Voice,
Gabranth's Look
He's the costume designer?! Holy shit, I want one of those! Robe, helmet, weapon and all. Haven't played the game, just listen to the music and digg the story. I gotta see this again!
The Judges are one of the best Character types in the FF series.
Akhihiko Yoshida is a fuckin genius designer !
They need to be a summon in kh3....
Also just read that dude had inspiration from them when he gave Ventus,Aqua, and Terra armor....
Gabranth's helmet actually resembles a samurai's. At least that's what the faceplate reminds me of.
these guys were cool as fuck
FFXII HD Remastered: Never. Why even live..
FFXII Remastered confirmed.
Remastered is now remastered woop!!
Holly S***!!, judge Zargabaath has the same voice actor as Kain from the Legacy of Kain series!
dude this video game is like a fuckin movie !
i hope it will be going to cinema
awesome scene!
The Judge Magisters were easily one of the best parts of FFXII, in my humble opinion.
Ghis had plans of his own
Drace distrusted Vayne and supported Larsa
Bergan was more loyal to Vayne, more of a bloodhound
Zargabaath was more loyal to the Empire than an Emperor.
You have source on that? never heard there were 15 of them. Judge magisters and judges are not the same thing =)
yes i knew it the instant he spoke :) also voices loghain in dragon age origins
I wish there could have been at least 12 judge magisters!!
One of the coolest armors ever!!!
I finally figured out who Drace reminds me of. Freya from FFIX. She doesn't even really look like her at all though. I think it's the way she stands.
@Gabranth86 If theres 15 Judges and 5 Judge Magisters, It'd make sense. Though you do kill at lest 2 Judges in-gane (much to my shane I've never completed 12) Abd I know that Gabranth, Drace, Ghis and Bergan all die in one way or another. So thats 13 judges and a Judge magister left.
So apparently the Garlean Legati and Tribuni from FFXIV are inspired from these guys!?
KAIN! I mean Zargabaath! Did anyone else know that the voice of Zargabaath is that of Kain from the Leagacy of Kain series?
Zargabaath's armor looks the most kickass. Just gotta say.
Judge Zecht, Jecht, Yes nobody should talk that way about Lord Jecht, Haha
I just had to make that comparison also if you replay it at the .34 mark it sounds
Like Jecht in a way.
I want Zargabbarth's armor soo bad!!!
how do they even see out of those helmets?
Yes, very unconventional for a Final Fantasy game. This is trully a stunningly well executed game all-round, a real step in the right direction for Square Enix. Shame it all went downhill in FF13
are they really the villains? think about it, they are serving the empire which they were born into and taught to support. they were doing what they were taught was right.
@YAIZMATASAN zargabaath has an awesome voice actor :D kain from legacy of kain series \m/
Actually Drace's voice is Elma's from FFX
Gabranth's face armor reminds me of darth vader :D
Yea I just found that lol, I bought IZJS about 4 weeks ago.
@cannonski
Yea I this whol thing about being a Consul and a Senate and an Empire, it reminds me of Rome
1:18 Kain!? O.o
Zargabaath's voice actor, Simon Templemen, also voices Kain from Legacy of Kain, yes.
wow i can't believe anybody remembers that.
He also voices Gavin Archer and Han'Gerrel from Mass Effect.
He also appears in The Neighbors
never heard of it. and i know he voiced Gavin and Han.(not Han Solo. though that would be awesome.)
you guys forgot loghain from dragon age :(
Well helmet's like the judges all look a little more ceremonial than practical anyway :)
luv drace but want Zargabbarth's armour =O
Agreed
I would have really loved to fight judge zergabranth(sorry if i misspelled his name)
Teyrn Loghain Mac Tir = Judge Magister Zargabaath
zargabath is fuckin cool
Who else thinks Basch should have been the main character all along?
+Luke Raven Basch was intended to be the main character but initial public reaction was negative so they went with Vaan instead. Apparently people didn't want a strong warrior type character as the main character.
>initial public
who? I thought it was Square who didn't want that because it was too risky.
Bergan: "...I still think my helmet looks the fanciest."
Zargabaath: "You look like steam is about to blow out of your faceplate. Mine is much fancier."
Drace: "Behold my testicle helmet!"
Gabranth thank the developers for giving him the only good-looking helmet.
Judge Master Zargabaath :l
@DefNerdz I mean zargabaath
Every Judge's so cool, but still somehow I do not find a woman Judge being believable. xD She even dies, lol.
I like how they make Drace look feminine, even thought she is wearing like a tonne of fucking armour. They should not have had those wing like things beneath her hips, because they make the hips look less rounded and more vertical.
Gay scene though, I hate it when the villains are discussing things, without the heroes being there to hear it.
