Edit: oh what a terrible way to start a new page.

Instead of lamenting chuds, I’m going to respond to the last post about FF7R’s world map. I think the zones work because they are extremely gamey abstractions. They don’t even attempt to represent entire landmasses because they’re fun playgrounds first and foremost.

Since FF16 was trying to present very grounded representations of a world, the fact that the nations were tiny may have caused more of a disconnect.

Also, late game spoilers but they do actually interconnect.

I'd be more interested in Stellar Blade if it wasn't £70 and from devs best known for the mobile game with the extremely animated arses.

I just got an ad for the FF7 rebirth orchestra concert and i'm half considering just picking up tickets and not telling my wife what we're going to.
We do go to the atl symphony a few times a year so it's not out of character... 'it's classical music, you'll love it, just a new one you've not heard of'

https://www.ffvii-rebirthconcerts.com/tour-schedule

tickets on sale thursday....
I'd normally think this kind of thing would be a bit lame but i'm loving the soundtrack so much I dont really care.

I have an alarm set for this, because if I get to hear the track I heard last night live, as well as the version of Hollow from the start of the game, I might just pass out in bliss.

I really want to go and LVG is not as bothered but knows what it means to me and I will need medical assistance if I get overwhelmed because of how great it is ;)

Goated Soundtrack - I am only on chapter 5 and I have already heard enough varied music for two full games.

NEWT THE MOON

quote:

The evidence seems irrefutable. The surprise sightings coincide with the beginning of a major order that introduced an additional mission type to Helldivers 2. The perfect opportunity to sneak in another surprise, and yet Arrowhead CEO Johan Pilestedt is playing coy.

"I've heard rumors of flying bugs in Helldivers 2. I want to officially refute such preposterous claims," he tweeted today. "Everyone knows that 'Bugs can't fly.' And I'm not alone in thinking this. The Ministry of Truth agrees that this is propaganda from bug sympathizers that want to brainwash good people."

I'll admit that, for a moment, I wondered if this was a serious denial despite being written in the style of the in-game fiction. Then I read this followup reply, where one fan drew a circle around what definitely appears to be a flying bug on the official Helldivers 2 box art, which Pilestedt dismissed as "image manipulation by traitors."

lol they are killing it.

new mgs collection patch is coming (out now on steam but console soon) and it fixes the analog controls in mgs1 :sickos: and added mgs1mc style pausing to mgs2 lol.

https://twitter.com/MGSMGN/status/1767808834725388545

think that was the final bug that was bothering me about mgs1. audio got fixed in the last patch so thats that.

edit: oh gamma curve being higher than normal is still there but you can fix that yourself on tv, so i guess they dont consider that a major issue.

Oh neat the controller firmware updates can be done wirelessly now so I don’t have to go over to the console or use the pc app to do it, is that new with FW 9.0 or have I just somehow missed it before?

I’m assuming it’s new because I got a controller FW update immediately after restarting for 9.0

In the third area of Rebirth and I do feel it's quite repetitive in the sidequest/open world structure. It's been the same "5 sidequests, 6 towers, 6 springs, 3 summon lore caves, 6 advanced enemy fights, 4 protorelic quests" in every area. And while the sidequests and protorelic quests are varied, the others are basically checklist fodder.

It was added quite a while ago, maybe a year or two back. I don't recall exactly when but it's not new.
