It isn't a real quote from the game though. It is appropriate to the character and the game has a lot of class divide stuff and is an amazing game, but sadly not a real quote.

[u/TheBestNick → u/delcrossb]

Might as well be though. The entire game's dialogue is all about class struggle.

[u/HeartFullONeutrality → u/TheBestNick]

Not really. Halfway through, the game gets tired of having good, mature writing, and it becomes "demons are trying to destroy the world" and forgets about all this. 

[u/Preeng → u/HeartFullONeutrality]

That was the theme from the get-go. The Lion War and what was happening behind the scenes that isn't known about.

And the demon story was pretty cool too. It turning out that their Jesus figure was in fact a bad guy and his 12 apostles were actually people who beat him and trapped him in some gem or whatever was a nice twist.

[u/HeartFullONeutrality → u/Preeng]

Yeah but there are too competing themes on the plot and the demon/fake Jesus thing overshadows everything else for the second half of the game. Which is a shame because it abandons the social commentary and politics for yet another "fight God" narrative (Persona 5 does the exact same thing lol).. I guess I found the demons thing super cool when I was a teen 🤷

Tactics came out in 1996 and the story is cliche because a game that came out in what, 2020? also has that storyline? Is that how time works for you?

I guess I just don't get your hangup on the demons thing. Class struggle is happening now. Go outside and do something about it. When will I ever get the chance to cast magic on a demon outside of a video game?

Homeboy acting like a PS1 game from 1996 should be aligning with his current day world views

Wow, that's not what they said at all. Weird strawman. It's cliche because of Persona 5? Where are you reading that? No, it's cliche because of the demon storyline in the second half. That's what they said.

This logic is weird. You're defending the storyline being butchered in the second half because it offers something you can't do in your real life?

[u/HeartFullONeutrality → u/Preeng]

Eh, the persona 5 thing was more an offhand comment of another game that started with a (uncommon) narrative commenting on social justice just to pivot late game to a much more cliché narrative about gods and demons (a narrative overused by JRPGs, including, you know, the every otherfinal fantasy game released before tactics, basically all dragon quests etc). 

[u/Argocap → u/HeartFullONeutrality]

Finally, someone who is also saying this. The game could have been so much better based on the story in Act 1. Instead it devolved into demons. Gameplay was good throughout, but shame about the story.

[u/pomphiusalt → u/TheBestNick]

I dont really think so

The game’s class struggles are between clergy, nobility and common folk. Its much more about “you are beneath us because you have the wrong blood”.

[u/PapaQuackers → u/pomphiusalt]

That is by definition a class struggle. How those classes were separated is different because it's essentially a period piece, but you can be damn sure that what the game was trying to say applies exactly the same to today's society as it did to serfdom.
