NikkolasKing posted:XIII-2's metacritic score is 79/100 which I don't think meets any definition of "panned by critics." Also notable is that this is much higher than LR's rating which is 66/100. what the hell? game critics are fail

PringleCreamEgg posted:The pacing is nuts, I had a cutscene of meeting my boys in front of the castle then text saying “THEY HAD AN ADVENTURE TO PROVE THEMSELVES TO THE KING” then we’re talking on a boat?? Then another bit of text telling me “SO THEY RETURNED AND NOW THEY TALK TO THE KING”. It’s like it’s incomplete, or they realized that mission was boring so they cut it. This game is gonna rule. that’s basically what the storytelling in Nioh was like too. Augus fucked around with this message at 01:40 on Mar 11, 2022 |

the only bad thing I’ll ever say about strangers of paradise in my life is that it’s kinda ridiculous how blurry this game is even on PS5. Nioh 2 Definitive Edition looked so much better, what happened?

OhFunny posted:I'm going to beat the game on every difficulty setting because I cannot stand the thought there's a version of CHAOS that remains unkilled. if it’s anything like Nioh each of the DLC expansions will also add an additional NG+ Difficulty so you’ll be able to kill Chaos to your heart’s desire

Nioh and SoP are generally a lot more high-octane than souls games, which are more about patience and good decision making

I think you guys are overstating the importance of min-maxing augments a bit. there are some really useful augments you definitely want to try and get (mainly cry, dualcast, and omnicast) but they aren’t mandatory to beat the game by any means and unless you go out of your way to grind you’ll beat the game before they start to have any affect on your stats. Only two fights in the game are balanced around augments, both of which are postgame superbosses that only appear in NG+

i can't believe they made a final fantasy game inspired by currently popular western fantasy, this is a massive departure from the rest of the series which took inspiration from japanese cultural touchstones like d&d, blade runner, star wars, and 15th century british military conflicts

stev posted:So the website's character page only lists five characters as of today's update (Clive, Josh and Jill from the first trailer, and Titan and Garuda's dominants), and doesn't include all the Empire people, various politicians and important looking military people in the trailers. I doubt they're gonna be playable because the combat for Clive looks really fleshed out with a bunch of different movesets you can swap between on the fly. they're definitely gonna be story important tho
