imagine going back to 2006 and telling FF12 players we will regress from a semi open world and playable character count on hardware a thousand times faster

just think with the power of the ps5 we could be choosing from over a hundred different but functionally identical dudes slowly auto-battling through 10 screens of desert

telling anybody ff16 has no party and immediately turn thems off, not going to do well except jrpg people

i'm just confused at the idea that not having a party would scare off non-jrpg fans.

average gamer dude that loves god of war recoiling in horror when I tell them a game is out where you mainly control one guy with AI companions helping you out

lovely stupid plots are frequently funny, i thought that was the entire premise of the numbered ff games

nah a lot of the criticisms i saw were people just completely failing to understand basic storytelling. Like, these people are operating at a fourth grade reading level

you are correct that Fortnite has reclaimed the beloved character of Rick Sanchez from the degenerate Justin Roiland and delivered him to the people, just as it will do with all IP

it also reclaimed a bunch of money into the degenerate Justin Rolland’s wallet

Saw a review that FF16's story is entirely about everyone being racist to the main character. Like, literally everyone you meet is a genocidal racist and the only culture is how much everyone loves being racist, and the main character just takes it the whole time and never sticks up for himself. c/d?

D, Clive kills a shitload of fantasy racists

-sexual assault
-Russian people

from the comparison video in that article the changes are so minor I don’t know why they even bothered, especially when the game is a decade old at this point. A character being sexualized marginally less (but still plenty sexualized) isn’t gonna change anyone’s minds if they weren’t into the game’s hyper-sexualized aesthetic before. Literally the only people who will give a poo poo are that people that are mad at it.

the female character not being a troop is whatever but the whole pre-war intro was just a bad idea in general. both fallout 3 and 4’s attempts to give your character a bespoke family history through a long intro with the motivation being finding your lost family member end up falling flat. New Vegas had the perfect setup with “someone shot you in the head, find out why”.

persona 3 and onward are accessible and simplified renditions of smt's mechanics, something that definitely carries value with how opaque and unforgiving the main series and other spinoffs like devil survivor can be. they also have an undeniably stylish aesthetic, particularly imo the music. they are also cliche anime dating sim tripe with all the baggage that medium carries, and to expect any deeper moral standard or philosophical nuance from that is ridiculous. I fully understand why they're so popular but lol at being upset that they aren't smart enough for your taste, get real

you sure are overreacting a lot to people rightfully calling dated transphobic humor stupid and lame
