CK2: The Ivalice Alliance
Hey everyone. The other day I posted about a mod that I’ve been working on. The title is The Ivalice Alliance and it originally started off as a complete Final Fantasy Tactics mod, including story, characters, artifacts, etc. but eventually turned into something more. As there are numerous FF games set within the world(s) of Ivalice, I thought it would be really cool to find a way to include all of these games into one cohesive world, which I think I have.
As stated above, this mod contains event chains that tell the complete story of Tactics, but with a twist. After completing the main storyline, a brand new original storyline continues with story arcs, characters and tons of Easter eggs from other games including:
-FF Tactics: War of the Lions
-FF Tactics Advance
-FF Tactics A2: Grimoire of the Rift
-Vagrant Story
-FF 12
FF 12: Revenant Wings
-The Return to Ivalice raid from FF 14.
This mod, while not currently a complete overhaul mod, is very ambitious in nature, and is a love letter to the Final Fantasy franchise as a whole. I’ve been working on it for months now and have completed the following:
-Full integrated Ivalice map
-Characters
-Bloodlines
-Artifacts
-Dynasties
-Cultures
-Religions
-Societies
-Wonders
-Traits
-Job System
-Proposition system
-Side Quests
-Custom portraits
-Custom event art
-Immersive event chains
-FF Easter Eggs
But the part I’m most proud of is the Chronicle system. This system is a living, breathing encyclopedia that unlocks features during gameplay, such as meeting new characters and having their biographies entered or discovering hidden artifacts or unexplored lands.
I’d be open to collaborating with experienced modders in helping me clean up some bugs and maybe figure out how to do some other things that I haven’t been able to as of yet. But I’m also interested to see if people would actually want to play it and what they thought of it in general. If you’ve played Tactics I hope you’ll appreciate how much hard work I’ve put into this mod in trying to replicate the original game (and yes, I used the original 1998 American localisation). Let me know if you guys are interested and if you want to see more screenshots or if you’d be interested in even trying it out. Thanks!
