Games where the plot revolves around a corrupt religion etc

I'd like to add Vandal Hearts 2 (PS1) to the list. It's a tactics RPG with a great story.

The issue that most people have with this game is the dual turn system. Basically you and the computer imput a movement and both are enacted simultaneously. To this day I still can't decide if the system is stupid or ingenius. I always end up in the middle, it's just another battle system.

Unlike other tactic games where your character's strength is determined by level and job class in Vandal Hearts 2 abilities are in weapons and equipment. You move skills from weapon to weapon, and your armor determines how your character "handles" (Winged Armor - Imune to landscape effects high movement low HP. Robes- Low HP high MP. Armor Low movement, Low MP, High HP. [Armor name I don't remember] average everythng.)

Another great thing about the game are the large and creatively made battle fields, large teams (At one point in the game you'll control up to 12 people at a time). And the challenge. Because the game has no job system this allows the computer to always keep pace with you. Unlike in FFT where you could basically level up early and teabag the game with two good party members Vandal Hearts keeps you grounded. Again due to the quality of your team relying almost solely in equips you have to rely more on inventory and battle tactics than brute force.

I love the hell out of this game, and talking about it makes me want to play it again. Also because it wasn't that well recieved if you find it anywhere you'll probably find it cheap.

How ya doing, buddy?
