Please be good! Final Fantasy single player mainline games have not been good since FFXII, and that released in 2006.

The legacy of the bad final fantasies has shaped our games for too long

Gosh dang I am sorely tempted to spend almost $600 so I can play this dumb game

Hell, I did. Even if I did spend the majority of that money over 2 years ago... it still counts right?

I was 100% surprised that Wade and Taylor were not named Biggs and Wedge TBH.

Same, as soon as I saw them I was like "it's biggs and wedge!!" And then they said their names and they weren't :eng99:

The amount of times I've hit circle instead of R1 to dodge.....

Amen. I tried switching to the control scheme that had dodge on circle but some of the rest of the buttons didn't feel right so I switched back, further adding to my confusion lol

Yeah worried about that too. This is a loving JRPG series. Being good at combat should amount to how much I’ve built up my characters and planning.

It’s like everybody played elden ring/souls and wants to make their games like that now. It’s really getting annoying.

Dark Souls is JRPG

I'm glad there's no minimap. Any game with a minimap I find myself constantly staring at the minimap and not the cool poo poo on the screen, so I'm glad it's gone. A bold choice, but ultimately the correct one imo

(Eikon 3)Lightning Rod + (Eikon 5)Gigaflare is certainly a thing. I'll probably stick with this for now. 7th Eikon is kind of interesting, but a bit of a pain, though it seems like its Rift Slip ability will be very useful for cramming stuff into stagger windows. The tool tip for that ability doesn't properly communicate just how big the cooldown reduction is if you use it during another ability. The one tricky part is that it seems like you need to get familiar with the ability animations so you can trigger it after they do damage but while they're still technically active.

Also (post Eikon 6) For gently caress's sake, I did not actually think it would be a good idea for Joshua to fight Clive over Jill. That would obviously have been very stupid, even if it would have also been funny to suddenly have that happen at that point in the game.

The actual reason he punches Clive is also pretty dumb though, given how quickly he reconciles afterwards. It's like they felt some need to introduce friction between the brothers but couldn't figure out when to do so, so they just stuck that in.


punching your best friend, brother, significant other, etc in the face because you love them so much is a big ol anime trope hth
