FF15 looks fun. Do you like fun OP? FFX-2 is also good.

Daryl Surat posted:The answer to the question of "what happened to Final Fantasy such that there's such a divide between FF6 and FF7?" is extremely simple: Tetsuya Nomura and Kazushige Nojima. Once these guys got to have say over the story and characters, that was when Final Fantasy changed forever. That's their fingerprints you're seeing from Final Fantasy 7 through 15 which you weren't seeing prior to that because they either didn't work on those games or were just doing artwork. They're also the ones behind Kingdom Hearts. Final Fantasy 7, Advent Children, and Kingdom Hearts are among the single most successful Japanese works in the world, such that everyone just thinks "that's how Japan does things!" But really, it's just these two guys (and well, a legion of people who grew up on their stuff and/or want to copy their success). The gameplay in FF15 looks fun.

Daryl Surat posted:"Looks" fun? Can't you just go download the demo and play it yourself, then report back what you liked or didn't like about it? I mean I played the Japanese Judgment demo already. Not sure how much I was missing out since I can't read any of the menus re: hints, upgrades, etc. I also heard some options were left out of the demo like the Wait mode for combat. The gameplay in the demo is fun. I guess it's like Kingdom Hearts but more refined. Fighting larger enemies is a blast especially when you are warping around to get better positioning or for dodging their attacks. Defense seems to be pretty important too because if you just mindlessly mash buttons, the enemies will gang up on you and kill you really quick. Parrying is great once you get the timing down.

9 is slow and boring. It would improved to a middling game if the combat wasn't slow as gently caress.

Also actions delaying other actions(or maybe it was just spells?) so everything is queued up and backlogging stuff. This makes things like Regen super powerful because it keeps ticking while all these abilities are slowly animating or queued up to go.

precision posted:Is Xenoblade X really that bad? Or just "not as good"? The exploration is good if you care about that sort of thing(except when monsters pop into your range because of the poo poo draw distance). Combat is ok. The music and story are really bad.
