Final Fantasy Tactics remake’s easy mode isn’t too easy

If you’re even the slightest bit curious about playing Final Fantasy Tactics, you probably already know that the PlayStation original is notoriously challenging. That’s still the case for the recent remake,Final Fantasy Tactics: The Ivalice Chronicles, though the baseline difficulty has been ratcheted down somewhat from the '90s version. As you’re making your way through Final Fantasy Tactics’ story, it’s easy to forget that you aren’t totally committed to the challenge level you chose at the start of your playthrough. At any point outside a battle, you can swap between the three difficulty settings (Squire, Knight, and Tactician), which respectively map to traditional easy, medium, and hard settings.
