My heart was limit broken by a severe lack of Eclair "Lightning" Farron already. This game could be okay though

There's FFXIII music on YouTube. I want fresh Lightning. Which video was the one with the flying car, anyway? I didn't catch that bit when I watched them earlier. I don't have access to a PS4 to play the demo right now. Donnerberg posted:Hey, so the game wiki says FF15 is part of Fabula Nova Crystallis, which is a subseries containing all the FF13s. Should I be worried? Will I need to know the lore of the FF13s? It started as vs 13, which was Fabula Nova Cystallis, but it isn't anymore so no, you won't.

I went round to my brothers house to play the Platinum Demo. It's a nice sandbox to get a try of the game's mechanics if nothing else. It kind of sucks as a complete package. The combat doesn't feel very satisfying.

Xavier434 posted:What did it feel like to you? Pretty uninvolved. It's an unusual feeling to me to have a game that is quite clearly in the same mould as an action RPG have largely automatic attacking. It's hard to disconnect the style of this game with something like Kingdom Hearts, which does ARPG better than Platinum Demo or a much more distant cousin like character action games such as Devil May Cry.

Xavier434 posted:The game is supposed to have two separate combat modes that you can toggle. One is supposed to allow for a less "automated" style. Is that the case with this demo and if so then which mode were you playing? No idea, I booted it up and played through as default. I didn't have the luxury or real time to get comfortable and fully tailor my experience because I was visiting someone elses place. I didn't want to impose too much.

Mr. Unlucky posted:they actually made a good world and likable characters here It's pretty hard to commit to either of these things without having played the game, honestly. The world might be visually stunning, it at least looks well designed in its centrepieces but if it's empty with little to do other than traverse it, it's not a good world. The characters might also be boring as gently caress outside what they've shown off so far (which is obviously parts they're proud of)

Platinum Demo is free but it's more a sandbox where you can test some poo poo with close to final mechanics/shine. Episode Duscae is outdated mechanics but a closer representation of what the full game will be and that's what was included with Type-0.

They probably have a lot more time to go gold than you'd imagine, honestly. Most of the time, you get reports that games have gone gold like 2 weeks before launch.

The game looks ugly as sin, but at least Noctis looks much improved after the time skip. The posh one (Ignis?) not so much. Hopefully they've tweaked up the gameplay since Platinum Demo somewhat

I only watched Gamespot's 45 min video from this set because I didn't want one with commentary and the game looks better than it has historically, but I get big "style over substance" vibes from it. The world seems pretty empty and outside of the staple fetch/kill quests, not much to do in it. Chilling in the Regalia ought to be fun for a while, especially if there are ways to do jumps from cliffs and cause traffic accidents and poo poo. It's definitely much wider in scope than NieR: Automata, but while the world of that game has been barely shown, it's probably fair to say that it's in the same umbrella of pretty barren world with generic quests but what NieR 2 has over this is that Platinum are making it so you know the combat is going to be extremely fun for long periods. I think that's something that XV is going to struggle with. XV has got quite some ground to make up to be the open world JRPG of Square's I want to play most. Would like to know if this is from a Pro or not too. I don't really have access to a PS4 anymore but I'd still consider travelling to where I can play with one if that footage was stock PS4 and we get a bit more to do when the game's further in. Noct has a fishing skill, so maybe it has a nice fishing mini game. Really minor nitpick: Why is it that Noctis is the one receiving phone calls when the quest is completed. It annoys me when this sort of poo poo happens, when characters get extremely well timed and convenient phone calls. It's a phone, why can't he say "I'll ring Cindy, let her know we're done" and then the conversation flow can go the same "Oh, by the way, Noctis, I got a message from Blah and he says Blah Blah, can you go do it?".

BeanpolePeckerwood posted:It amazes/depresses me how graphically nitpicky people have become. Eh, it amazes/depresses me when people settle for subpar. Not particularly speaking about this game, the final build seems much improved, but in general. Swings and roundabouts, innit.

ImpAtom posted:I really don't understand how you enjoy anything then. Literally everything cuts corners somewhere because nothing has an infinite budget. You, by necessity, have to settle for 'good enough' at some point because every game compromises somewhere. Lotta words for "I do not understand the meaning of the concept of being on par." The phone call thing is something at least I brought up, I dunno if others did, and I called it a minor nitpick like it is. It has no real impact on the game in any largely appreciable manner other than taking you out of the moment a little. Intrusive graphics issues that create visual issues that people dislike are considerably more significant than convinient phone calls.

In what world can you take that away from literally anything I've said? Name one time I've said, in any thread on any forum on earth, that they could have everything and anything without compromise. You won't find it because I never have and never will. The reflection work for mirrors in Mafia 3? Subpar. Don't talk down to people because you're think you're speaking from some higher authority, either, it's embarrassing for you. "Get a grip"? Shameful. It's an entirely different argument that it's okay to express disappointment that people are happy to settle for subpar and even apologetic on behalf of developers for it. It's also entirely possible to say "this asset is subpar and should be better" and still enjoy the game itself. This one part that people are leaping to defense of in FFXV is subpar. It looks worse than that of its peers. Being on par doesn't mean "no corner cutting" or " it's good enough". It just means average. Exclusively. The incidental animation work in FFXV is well above par, I guess the entire game is extremely good and amazing now that people here seem to think that one thing in a game being labelled subpar means that it's utter poo poo, apparently, so the opposite must also be true.

It looks pretty good overall, it's nothing on the level of what you can get on a good PC obviously, but it's not available on one of those either. It comes out looking a little less handsome than Witcher 3 for sort of similar game comparison. The water effects people are complaining about are an eyesore. I'm really impressed with the leaps they've made for this final build overall. I didn't think they'd be able to get the framerate as consistent as they apparently have done, and the lighting is much improved over old builds too. There aren't many games that make my favourites list that even attempt photorealism either, I'd rather the industry as a whole stepped by from attempting it. I prefer art styles that have a longer shelf life, things like Okami. The water thing is just an ugly effect that other games have handled better/more inventively. Simple as. Once again though, criticising a poor element is not saying it's all bad.

Dr. Citan Uzuki as a character is 100% the type of person who would make a game with an excellent disk one and then not bother at all* with disk 2, so it fits in that sense too. *I know it's not a case that Square weren't bothered enough to finish disk 2 or whatever

Stumpus posted:Every final fantasy is on PC. I'll wager this one will be out on PC in a few months. I'd bet on it making it to PC one day too, not as quickly as you suggest, but there's not much point in saying "it'll look great etc etc" in an hypothetical PC version at this point. It'll be interesting to see what they add to it should it happen though.

8-bit Miniboss posted:Between the Polygon and Eurogamer first hour vids. I enjoyed the Eurogamer one the most. Aoife and Chris were totally into it the entire time and had a fun time with it. I actually have gone back and watched Eurogamer's vid since when I said I would and it's definitely better than the Gamespot one, I haven't/won't watch the Polygon one at this point because overkill but it was definitely the better video and showed off the game better and the player was generally more skilled too. It also confirmed Chocobo racing is in and some what customisable so that's another thing to do with the game.

Noctis is a dork. The amazon option is the only real option there. 20% off is 20% off. Simple as that. Minimises your losses if the game sucks, and that's a real thing that can happen when you pre-order anything at all and if it doesn't, you got a bunch of stuff with the game and saved 20%. The game thing is a limited tie in so it's going to be pretty bad and it'll all be available in the end most likely.

Blackfyre posted:Oh has anyone seen any news on how exactly the Pro supports XV yet? Aside from a few seconds during the Pro announcement I've heard zip. I think they've said that there's not actually much in the way of Pro features because it was too late but post release they might actually come back and make further enhancements to it, in a similar way that they've talked about making the Windows version in that it would take a lot of work that would detract from the game during its active development stages. The communication surrounding everything about the Pro is garbage at this point, I wouldn't buy one if I had the means to.

There are more and more legit spoilers around now, and I don't know if it's gone and I shan't be detailing it here, but there was an either hilariously bad or hilariously malicious attempt "disguising" a spoiler on a GameFAQS thread title, so definitely don't go into that neck of the woods!

I would imagine that he'd fallen prey of a particularly nasty little bug but for the love of Lightning, always hard save when you have finished playing for the mean time regardless of the game should the option be available, even if you leave your game and console running.

I have a short memory, but I think this is really the first time I remember where a mainline FF hasn't been a monster hype machine everyone's looking forward to and everyone is going to love before it hit. XIII getting a poo poo rep is probably the main contributor to it. Might be a state of gaming as a whole but it certainly seems that you've got more people laughing at innocuous things, already hashing out their effort posts about just how -ist it is for others. It's a social media world, everyone has the right and need to pipe up. Josuke Higashikata fucked around with this message at 20:41 on Nov 20, 2016 |

I want to invent a way that collects every post on the intermet that's mad about FF13 and then reveals if they've actually played it yet and see what the true number is. Part of me still thinks it's still at least partly because of what they've been told. And this magic method also makes these posters appreciate Lightning.
