Finished the demo; lots of fun.

Something I'm now weirdly excited about is the piano-playing minigame because it was super fun. The music dynamically changes depending on your performance, from amazing piano concerto to baby's first concert complete with metronome :lol:

I just wanna say that I think Cloud's VA does some really incredible, subtle work in the demo.

I know you probably mean the thing but my favourite is his sheepish admission that he rummaged through Tifa's stuff.

Hey ImpAtom, apologies if you brought this up before, but have you tried the Dynamic difficulty much? Curious if I should for my first go through Rebirth.

Posting real quick to say game rules and is really quite funny. This is also just a Xenoblade game, they are strikingly similar in game design.

The loving bit with (Chapter 6) Jules showing up and immediately giving me a traumatic stress response but it turns out his quest is to just clear a bunch of monsters NOPE DO CRUNCHES RIGHT NOW loving sent me for a loop. I found this one much easier though, at least.

I have a pathological need to get all the rewards from mini-games and I'm terrified that THIS is the one that makes me vomit blood. So far so good though!

I'm glad Tifa is just as fun (and strong) as FF7R1 because she's been glued to my player slot as much as possible. No one else even feels close to as satisfying to me. I just got Yuffie and I'm kind of lost as to what to do with her, though I am astounded she more or less brought her entire Intermission moveset with her. That's great!

Also there was a moment where I had the entire party crammed into an elevator and I was marvelling everyone's pristine character models and thinking "wow these guys have really come a long way from their like 25 year old selves".

And then they started bumping and colliding into each other for the duration of the elevator lol

Gongaga loving sucks rear end to move around, being forced to be on the chocobo to find the right mushrooms but the entire area being so tight means you're just bumping into walls constantly.

Cosmo Canyon is better but it's still too much of "uhhh okay let's see how I up get there" for me.

Where are my wide open plains damnit.

The costa del Sol plot point that the shinra middle manager from remake is having a full blown identity crisis meltdown is just a really funny bit that Im enjoying watching unfold

I'm enjoying all these Remake characters coming back a lot more than I thought I would have lol. I hope we see this guy in Remake 3 in some kind of Cactaur association.

How the gently caress do you fight these jellyfish enemies in Gongaga? As far as I can tell all you can do is cast Fire spells at them and hope you catch them when they aren't transparent, but that's difficult because you can't reliably build any ATB off of them (due to them dodging most attacks).

Wait until they stop moving/start casting and pop them with one of Tifa's heavy triangle moves. I think if you constantly mash attack they'll keep dodging, so just stand around blocking for a bit.

Frankston posted:

What's the deal with the Odin fight? I know you have to dodge his attacks to avoid the zanketsu whatever. I got hit a single time but he still busted it out and wiped me after one minute.

This is a guess, but it feels like both dodging his attacks and also doing enough damage are required. It feels very DPS check-y.

This UPA arena fight is straight rear end lmao

Here, fight two Gargantuars, it'll take you five minutes and you'll have to Raise everyone three times. Next is ten Tonberrys. There are three more rounds after this.

It was pretty annoying but Aerith's synergy skill that shoots in a line does a great job of blasting all the Tonberries. Also I equipped Barret with an anti-death accessory which really helped.

I hope I can redo this fight or something because I didn't bring Assess Cloud and there were two new monsters in there.

Goddamn the UPA chocobo race music had no reason to go that hard.

Now I'm stuck on the 3D brawler part of it and wanting to tear my hair out because the telegraphs all look way too loving similar.

Hope you like what comes after :)

Who the gently caress designed this (final protorelic) Odin/Alexander fight. I've been trying to do this for four loving hours. It is an unending stream of bullshit.

I have a very well-developed bullshit sensor that allows me to bump down the difficulty from Dynamic to Easy completely conscious free, and this was one of the fights it tripped on.

The others were the mindflayer combat sim challenge and that one Golden Saucer fight with the worm that eats you

Chadley rules because the end of his world intel quest clearly points to him creating some kind of NieR Replicant-style spinoff with FF7.

Also his dynamic with MAI is super funny because he did it entirely to himself.
