Theoretically there should be some bundles closer to release, right?

It’s mandatory for continued employment? Or you’ll at least be punished for not attending? Cause gently caress that. I am taking a day off work to play FFXVI, possibly more if I haven’t finished the story yet, but FF games are not really that long unless it’s FF14.

All that said if you can only buy one game this month it should be Ghost Trick

Thar is bizarre because the raid is flat out about things being different because B'gnamnin sure didn't turn into a giant superdragon in FF12

^^^ I hope that the game itself gives itself "time to breath" and isn't just constantly trying to be a spectacle for the player.

Soken definitely has some patterns to the way he does this kind of music; there are multiple parts where I feel like the track could suddenly transition into an FF14 track. That's probably part of what lends it well to be used in different forms through the game, though. He's good at creating these memorable "core melodies."

Edit: Spotify says I need premium to listen to it, so I only got the part in the tweet

To be honest I'd try to avoid it. You get a *lot* of defensive options and the ability to extend your perfect dodge window. I didn't experiment with it much but I think that only works with default dodge snd none of the other cool parry/dodge moves

Torgal one should be harmless tho'

So are the black bar spoilers I’ve been seeing in this thread from the demo or was there a leak or something?

One other takeaway I had from the demo is that I think there might be a Clive/Jill romance. The scene with her and Clive under the moon where Clive seems to be hesitating to put his arm around her seems to imply that. It's hard to understand his actions there much otherwise, unless it's just "he doesn't know if it's okay given her status as a ward" (which doesn't seem to be the case, since they otherwise seem to treat Jill as a member of the family).

I kinda hope it is just because I like having romance in my melodramatic story and Jill seems cool. If she didn't join the family at a very young age it's not too weird.

The dragoon was voiced by Estinien's VA right? If not then it's a drat close impression.

Are Cid and the Garuda lady not actual dominants? Or were they choosing to not go full Eikon mode there?
EDIT: Looking at the bios on the official site they are indeed dominants. I guess going full Eikon is a last resort

It does raise the question of why Rosaria wasn’t immediately steamrolled when their previous dominant died. It seems like the only way to stop a Eikon is with another Eikon

I hope that everyone's predictions about Torgal being the Fenrir Eikon isn't true, because it would more fun if somehow he was the Fenrir Dominant instead. Dog summoning Big Dog

Does anyone have a link to that spoilery image of the special box art drawn by Amano that displays all the Eikons? I couldn't find a clear photo of it, even on the Enix site, but thought there was one

I know the two sisters fight and think the final fight had some XIV mechanics, I got pretty excited recognizing them. But yeah I agree, any more tools and I think it would have been a bit much.

Terper posted:

Yeah you have access to seven different ways to evade/counter attacks in the second demo: Dodge, parry, charged magic, Titan's block, and then Phoenix's Heatwave, Garuda's Rook's Gambit, and Titan's Raging Fists.

I want there to be the dumbest, story-derailing twist 70% through. It’s all aliens. Clive is his own grandfather. Valisthea is actually the moon and the moon is the real planet with an ultra-future civilization. Idc
