So I finished Endwalker and since there's basically nothing coming out until the end of January, am considering (re)playing one of the modern single player Final Fantasy titles. I never played FF7R intergrade, but I heard the extra content isn't all that incredible - I beat and enjoyed the main game already, and it was recent enough that I'm kind of leaning away from playing it again. The other contenders are FFXIII and FFXV. XIII is feeling a little too dated at this point, so it's probably also not going to win. So, how do people feel about FFXV windows edition? I played the game on console at launch forever ago and have forgotten....well, most of it, aside from a generally good feeling about the bro simulator parts. The story at the time was pretty forgettable - did the DLCs end up making it better? I played none of the added content before - is it woven in with the main game in a rational way?

Fabricated posted:Just want to point this one out especially since I have never seen anyone comment on it. Isn't it loving weird how there's no blood in the game until the rampage in the castle happens? You see Wiegraf run someone through at the start of the game and more than a couple deaths but there's specifically no blood at all, but when the slaughter happens and Alma's escaping through the castle the guards are just loving *splattered* all over the place, and now people who get ran through in cutscenes bleed. this is one of the things i really loved about FFT, how the violence and blood just ramps up. theres subtle blood in a few places in ch2 but it does just get more and more violent and bloody which is fun in how it ties into the plans of the lucavi Fabricated posted:There's a lot of super strong moments in FFT for me: yeah i was struggling to think of a favourite moment. there are lines in the original translation ("I've taken my whole life for granted. When it came down to it, I dropped it all and ran") that really hit me and i really liked the blade of grass scene between ramza and delita (and love that it got an FMV) i also really love the scriptures of germoniqe, it feels like this world-shaking revelation at the time (and normally would be) and then the game just gets crazier and crazier and its like wow its revelations weren't even that crazy in the grand scheme of things Verviticus fucked around with this message at 01:39 on Dec 30, 2021 |

Been slowly working my way through ff7r over the holiday and absolutely loving it. They nailed the tone, the characters, and the battle system is fun as heck. "That's no ordinary house"

RE Intergrade - Yuffie is mad fun to play as once you get used to her. There's no way she doesn't get nerfed in the actual next game because she can do everything by herself and do it awesomely. Her story is pretty good and the special battle she unlocks for the Shinra Combat Simulator in the base game is a ton of fun to master. I am completely enamored with the combat system of this game though so if you're not then yes it's probably just okay. RE FFXV - Gladio DLC was boring, Prompto's was pretty good. I never played Ignis but have heard it's very good. Never played Ardyn but I heard it fucks with the plot in a very not good way so maybe avoid that. It's been a long time but I think you launch the DLCs from a separate menu so it's up to you when you tackle them.

There's new stuff woven into the story (such as being able to boat around freely and go back and forth between the mainland and the island city, and there being a new Final Dungeon after the time skip. But the DLC scenarios where you play as other characters are loaded up from a separate menu and not part of the main game.

Re: FFT I really wanna play War of the Lions, but have no urge to play it ever on mobile. Hopefully the announcement of Google Play Games being available on Windows next year will allow me to officially revisit one the the most memorable games I've ever played.

Party Boat posted:Wait here it is It's remarkable that FF8's FMV tricks remain so striking even today when modern games can depict scenes a thousand times more complex in realtime. The way it seamlessly transitions from simple models on still images into complex renders without a loading screen in-between just feels unreal, like it's breaking the rules of how games work.

Revisiting FFV with the pixel remaster and god drat the soundtrack is amazing. https://www.greatestgamemusic.com/soundtracks/final-fantasy-v-soundtrack-pixel-remaster/ FFV has been my favorite FF to revisit and play for the gameplay but the soundtrack remaster may elevate it to my #3 FF (FFXIV is #1)

The only thing that needs to be changed in FFT is making everything happen faster. Just add a 2x speed switch (and autobattle AI for cleaning up random encounters quicker).

The story at the time was pretty forgettable - did the DLCs end up making it better? I played none of the added content before - is it woven in with the main game in a rational way? This was basically, word for word, me earlier this year. Final Fantasy XV is one of the best games I played in 2021 and I'm really glad I went back to it so I definitely recommend doing so. It surprised me, how much I ended up enjoying it when my initial impression of a game I finished was a game I couldn't remember anything about. Windows edition does have a couple of things very wrong with it though. First, Summons are gonna gently caress the game. I'm talking about Framerate dropping to single digits and then the game just locking up entirely. This happens basically every time you Summon something; it's super fun when you absolutely have to because the story requires it! I wasn't ever able to find a way to fix it, unfortunately. It wasn't something that stopped me playing the game through to completion - usually Saving and Restarting as soon as the battle concluded was enough to bypass any major problems. Also, although I don't have definite proof of this and it could well just be me, I'm convinced that there's a serious memory leak with the game as well. You may want to restart your machine after playing it. The same thing happens with the X/X-2 Remaster, as it goes. But yeah, the above issues aside, FFXV is great. Play it.

FF5 is such a phenomenal game and it makes zero sense how long it took to get a good US release. You can see them try to make a freeform character system even half as good during FF7 and 8. And while 1-4 have some reasonably catchy tunes it really sets the bar on what FF music can be.

You can turn on AI for your dudes in FFT. It’s a fun time, I did the same thing in Tactics Ogre where only the main character is controlled and everyone else is automatic. It makes sense.

Good news for people who want to scratch their tactical RPG itch but find FFT boring: Triangle Strategy is coming out March 4th and it’s basically FFT meets Octopath Traveler with branching stories based on moral choices. Hopefully it will have a lot of replay value, I liked the demo but it needed some serious polish.
