This game is like Squeenix looked at all the Skyrims and the Witchers and the Fallouts that have come out this decade and realised that they needed to make their next RPG and open world so they did and they made it beautiful and completely missed the point by by populating that world with absolutely nothing worth doing.

oh no, spoilers

Either long or short episodes work for me in general, but long eps are more satisfying when you're mostly just dicking around.

This will probably be most of the episodes.

Edit: Also that obnoxious car paint is bangin and I'm putting in a request for using every ugly garish color on anything the game allows.

Naming that quest Interrupted by Fireworks while not being able to date a large African-American revolutionary with a gun arm is awful and someone should be fired.

The combat system always felt clunky and never really clicked for me. I get the rules, but it never got to the point of feeling natural.

One more mediocre aspect of a mediocre game.

I don't think this has been brought up yet, but Gladiolus is apparently named after the Gladiolus flower. Also known as the Sword Lilly.

Requesting you refer to him exclusively as Lilly from now on.

The pinball minigame is so bad I've never seen it written about anywhere or heard anyone talk about it unless they were in the middle of playing it. It appears to be entirely devoid of fun.

That whole stealth/base section is incredibly poorly designed. Like, even worse than normal for this game. It's both dull and too frantic, with unclear objectives. Such a pile of crap.

Semantics chat! As a kid I I was taught couple for two, few for three or four, and several for four, five, or six. Are there even official definitions, or are few and several just whatever anyone wants them to be?

That loving Pompito dialogue was incredibly boring. I've heard people say the banter between the main characters is what's good about the game, but it's all so inane. Like it was written by a 10 year old.

Sounds like you are starting to realize what a boring travesty most sidequests are. I'm okay with you skipping a lot of them.

Also gently caress HOAs.

Holy poo poo how did I not find this earlier? I was a big Tipping 40's fan back in the day, and finding this thread a few days ago was a treat.

So I'm three episodes in and... this game sucks, huh? The combat system is a mess. Also, why do all of the party members wear the same (lack of) colors? You can't tell anyone apart when poo poo's really chaotic. The character designs in FFX were garish and stupid, but they were at least distinct.

This is a pretty bad game, yes. Many many poor design decisions were made and stuck with. And not even in an amusingly bad way like many of FFX's features, no, this game is just bad.

(Except for finding a new recipay.)

Jesus tapdancing christ, monster truck jumps make this game 200% more fun.

Which, to be honest, isn't that impressive when the game wasn't very fun to begin with.

But I'm still mad they add all these improvements long after release. Let's punish early players!

I'm all for punishing companies that release unfinished games. Please tell me where to sign up to find out which games are unfinished when they release before I buy them.

Don't tell me game reviewers. This game was fellatiated by reviewers on release.

It sounds like you may be new to these guys. If you're interested in more of their stuff they have a lot of back catalog.

I find that if I have to read a ton of :words: just to understand the basics of the plot and what is happening onscreen in my visual mediums (let alone understanding the characters and their motivations), then the medium has failed to tell the story and it's not worth trying to understand it.
