I can imagine Yoshi-P is thrilled to have been able to work on something that's not XIV. But even beyond that you can tell they really put love into this one.

I got lucky and snagged a PS5 a few years ago during The Scalper Apocalypse. It's a rad as hell console, would recommend.

Yeah the article headline is clickbait, even inside the article the most they say is "leaks say there's intimate moments involving a gay character". While my old, jaded, gay heart would love to see a gay sex scene in a Square title I highly doubt that it's gonna be that much. Regardless good on them refusing to censor whatever it is. Sucks for our FF fans in that part of the world though.

I'm digging the bleak, dank vibes. I wanna go explore the Southeast where the whole area sounds like a Post-Apoc Lovecraft Coast.

Mordiceius posted:Welp. Got to that first point of no return. I'm at basically the same point, bit further ahead. I'm astounded at how, somehow, (Major Character Spoilers) Joshua has rocketed up to being a top favorite character. I don't know what the gently caress he's up to but goddamn he got badass over the timeskip, never would've figured he'd become so cool based on how he was as a kid/in all the marketing.

Slimy Hog posted:Sorry to drege up a sorta old post, but I thought of this when Cid calls the situation with the mothercrystals An Inconvenient Truth It took me longer because I'm dense. It hit me in the head during the scene with Cid at the brothel before the crystal raid where they talk about how the people in power don't care about damning the world as long as they get what they want.

Detective No. 27 posted:Got a question about Clive's brand. I'm past "disc one" so to speak in (the first point of no return). The game shows that people are born branded. Clive gets branded sometime during the first time skip. I'm at the second time skip where he's unbranded himself and some other bearers somehow. Is it explained how he gets branded? Do we see how he figures out how to unbrand himself or does that get explained? Dunno how those scars in the shape of a brand fool people. You're conflating two different terms. People are born Bearers. This means they can cast magic without being near a great crystal or having a crystal shard on hand. Being Branded is what it means to have the tattoo. Once it's figured out that people are Bearers they get branded like cattle and treated as sub-human. Clive would've been branded when he was taken prisoner. He's not actually a Bearer because he wasn't born with the innate ability to cast magic, that was all given to him by the Blessing of the Phoenix. Of course to people out of the know about that they'd just conclude he was a Bearer.

Regarding Jill & 2nd Crystal Stuff Honestly even if she does nothing the rest of the game that whole section was rad as hell. Loved seeing Jill get mad and unhinged. The hint of unrestrained crazy in her voice when she says "Oh... we destroyed it." was very good. Always love a good unhinged girl boss moment. Also love that she tells Clive her plan to murder an rear end in a top hat and there's not a single speech about how vengeance isn't the way or that she shouldn't have to bloody her hands to move on or some bullshit. Clive is just ride or die for her and says "you got this babe I'll hold your flower".

Well holy drat everything involving Twinsides & the 5th Eikon was loving wild as hell. The bros fusing and having a Super Saiyan fight with Bahamut in Space was balls to the wall nonsense in the best loving way imaginable goddamn. And then Dion chucks a spear at a fake child for the 2nd time in one day. Watching Annabella's entire world just crumble to dust was immensely satisfying and I couldn't feel the slightest bit sorry for her even as she slit her own throat. Good riddance World's Worst Mom. And then to wrap all that up all I can say about the scene afterwards involving Barnabas is:

Also regarding that villain: Annabella is the exact kind of rear end in a top hat that would sneer at suicide victims and call them "undignified wretches" for taking such an action. So her watching everything she'd been doing for the past 18 years just instantly evaporate in front of her and then take that exact way out is a pretty good way to wrap up her entire character arc. She did unspeakably heinous things, it was all for nothing, and history will move on and she'll be lucky if she even ends up as a footnote in the history books. She got what she earned.

In hindsight, even if it probably wasn't much of a twist Clive still having the Blessing of the Phoenix 13 years later is a good hint that hey maybe the Phoenix isn't dead.

I think I saw people way back say E6 felt weak but I've been loving it a lot. Maybe one of my top favorites. Diamond Dust just loving nuclear strikes stagger gauges. Ice Age is decent damage for it's low cooldown and works well as something I don't feel bad using outside of staggers. And of course the circle dodge is rad and you can really abuse even the short mini-freezes from it. I might also just be biased though because Jill is rad and Shiva is rad and ice powers are rad and it's just kind of all playing exactly to my likes. Current Loadout: Garuda - Lightning Rod/Ignition Shiva - Ice Age/Diamond Dust Titan - Windup/Upheaval

I always find it fascinating how people seem to memory hole how FFX was literally just a giant long hallway with like one big open area breaking it up. I say this as someone who loves FFX! It's a giant hallway. I do not comprehend how you can call XVI more linear when it actually gives you open areas to run around and lets you explore around the world *much* earlier than FFX ever does. I won't argue against the fact that XVI doesn't really have much going on for exploring out of your way like yeah it's bits of 2 gil and random monster parts and poo poo it's whatever but it's still a drat sight more open than FFX.

Mid's ship questing was what everyone was bitching about? Really? ....I must just have some otherworldly tolerance for this sort of thing because it didn't bother me in the slightest. I realize I am an outlier though lol.

Yeah Hugo went out of his way to murder tons of innocent bystanders just to get at one man with absolutely zero remorse for doing so. Clive reacting to his sob story with essentially "So what? gently caress off" is the correct way to respond to him.

Semi-Relatedly, a detail about the whole "why do they have Benedicta holding this fort": Clive asks why they'd even go through the effort to capture a fort they have absolutely no chance of keeping and Cid mentions it must be one of Barnabas' complex secret plans. This doesn't ever get mentioned again but thinking back on it after later plot Barnabas was absolutely just throwing Benedicta to the wolf. Ultima wants Clive to Mega Man all the other eikons and realize his true potential as a vessel and Barnabas was only ever serving Ultima in the end. The extra benefit of using her head to incite Kupka into a rage spiral was just like icing on the cake.

I'll be the hipster and say I still found Shiva to be my favorite and best eikon. The freeze dodge, especially when upgraded, can just really give you loads of free damage & stagger and in the biggest surprise in an FF game very few things are immune to it (and when they are it's usually just during specific attacks). Even the final boss is susceptible to getting frozen in place. Add on top that Diamond Dust just absolutely deletes will gauges. The ice orb is also fantastic once you get used to the fixed distance cast, great for parking on top of a staggered enemy similar to Lightning Rod. loving love Shiva.
