It is confirmed for PC, but they said they don’t have a date and it’ll take a while. So if you can wait a year at least no need to buy a console :shrug:. Getting a PS5 can still be worth it for other Sony first party games, guess it’ll depend on your budget.

Not a fan of the eikon battle at the end of the demo, felt like something out of Star Wars Rebel Assault or another FMV shooty game. Move the cursor around the screen and press a button while a video plays in the background (i know its real time, shush). Not the most thrilling gameplay.

Haven't done the bonus battle stuff yet but I'm hoping the combat later on is more involved.

Also I hate game of thrones so that's a big strike against this, but oh well I'm a Final Fantasy mark so I'm gonna play it anyway.

If I'm not mistaken, Eikon battles have different gameplay mechanics depending on the fight. Still, I imagine they'll all be more about the spectacle than the actual gameplay presented (which is fine since the actual game combat seems incredible)

This game feels very uneven to me.

Itemization and exploration are trash. Side quests are mostly trash. Skill upgrade system is also pretty bad giving only some small bonus before mastery.

Main story, voice acting, characters, visuals/presentation, combat and Eikon battles are engaging and fun.

Overall, for me, it’s a good game but far from great. The lows are reaaallly low.

Zelda still GOTY (until Armored Core).

The “Quest complete/Enemy Slain” screen interrupting the end of epic boss fights and other pivotal moments is so bad lol how did they leave it there, it breaks the pace of so many emotional moments
