SHINee's back




I really need to finish this. I did the dumb thing of taking a break for a day or so, right at the very end of the final bike chase, and haven't gone back to it at all due to getting distracted by a ton of other poo poo. I know how it ends and I need to see that poo poo!

The bike chase sucks so badly.

Both bike chases are just a tad bit too long. Otherwise, they were a blast. At least the game blessed us by not having the boss fight with Motor Ball at the end and making you do it in the chase instead.

I liked the bike sequences when I played them but once you unlock Chapter Select you have the option of skipping them completely on chapter replays and I have done just that.

They were not good at all.

my take is that two out of three avalanche members dying is just the writers way of saying poo poo changes but the stakes are still there.

Roche rules and I hope they make him into a huge rival/part of the story in the next installments.

Ff14 is getting an update soon that overhauls the apparently lovely original campaign and cuts out a lot of filler, I'm going to start playing when that drops

It doesn't change anything about the 2.0 story, it's editing the gap between the end of the relaunch story stuff and the start of the first expac

I thought they were cutting out 2.0 story missions to make it quicker and more fun??

From what I remember, ARR's MSQ isn't too terrible time wise. But the content between ARR and HW was a loving slog

I think it's both 2.0 and 2.x. They also said they'll bump MSQ exp a bit so you'll hit 50 without ever having to touch a sidequest.

running around FF7R Shinra HQ and soaking in the delicious irony of japanese square Enix making the most immediately culturally relevant eco-terrorist positive ACAB game after Canadian Square Enix used their Deus Ex reboot to make fun of final fantasy in a random lobby poster and say Aug Lives Matter .
