Does the game look a bit washed out to anyone else? I can't tell if it's just because Nibelheim is inherently grey or if it's an actual issue.

No Mods No Masters posted:I mean it still chugs in performance mode, it just does so by tanking the resolution. If you play around at the very beginning when you're walking around in the town you can get some pretty hideous results in certain spots Yeah the demo sets a really bad first impression - in the village you either get a super low resolution or a super low framerare. Play has no limits - well one limit but you get to choose what it is  It's fine after that though so maybe Nibelheim pre-fire is just very poorly optimised.

Oh poo poo there's a piano minigame that I completely missed? Now I have a reason to replay it when the full game releases  bewilderment posted:When you're following Tifa around it was weird to me that depending on the direction you tried to walk the game would let you keep slowly walking and eventually it would give up and it would totally break Tifa's pathing and her 'leading' you for a little bit. I'm the sort of person who always needs to walk the way you're not supposed to just to see what happens - and every time I did it the demo punished me with a full 10+ seconds of Cloud very slowly walking forward, turning around and slowly walking back. That poo poo's gonna add 5 hours to my playtime.

They beat up a bunch of monsters and houses and pick up sick loot/xp which is how most JRPG characters get more powerful. Presumably they'll also be going from flinging firagas to barely scraping a fire together. Almost all of it can be explained by Yuffie robbing them though.

Harrow posted:It is, but I'd argue we've reached a point where it's fallen out of the public consciousness enough that there are people interested in FF7 Rebirth who don't know yet. I don't love that SE is using Aerith's death this much for marketing, either, for that same reason. Yeah it's an odd situation. Normally I'd say it's not a big deal and it's absolutely public knowledge. But millions of people were just introduced to the story via Remake and it's not inconceivable that a lot of them (particularly those not yet born in 1997) have tried to avoid spoilers.

Welp I decided to play through Nibelheim again. Got to the end of that, excited to start the next chapter and I'm booted to an installation screen that's been sat at 88% for ten minutes. Guess I'm going to bed.

Lakbay posted:I think I've narrowed my combat problems to forgetting to block/dodge/move out of the way and when to use the R1 synergies This is my whole problem right now. There's so much going on it's incredibly easy to forget to dodge and block. And when I do the enemy decides not to attack for 30 seconds.

Dumb question - do the summons I got for beating the demo, Remake and Integrade appear later on naturally? Or are they exclusive to people with save data? I don't like using that sort of bonus if it means getting stuff before the game intended. But if I'm never gonna get Leviathan any other way I'll happily use him.

Taima posted:Is there any downside or cap to hanging onto research points with the boy Chadley or should I be grabbing materia whenever I have the points for it...? At least in the grasslands I got exactly enough points to buy all the materia he had in stock, so I assume if you do everything you can afford it all.

I kind of assume 16's budget and dev time was comparable to this - they just focused those resources on the kaiju fights and production values instead of all the other stuff. It certainly looks and runs a lot better than Rebirth does. Actually 16 would've been in development a lot longer, assuming Rebirth didn't start much before Remake was out.

Is there any way to to see the end-of-fight updates after the fact? They fly across the screen so fast I barely register what happened. And if an enemy drops something there's no way I'll realise.

ImpAtom posted:Rebirth has more narrative momentum and is a better road trip game than FF15, don't @ me Absolutely. It's an incredible road trip game. I've decided 15 doesn't count as a road trip game because it's too drat open, you're very rarely actually going to any sort of destination. I can't believe I'm 24 hours into this thing and I'm only at the boat. I've got so much game left and I'm excited about that.

MintFresh posted:I’m still on chapter 9. When I played Remake, with the lockdown, I felt like I burned through that whole game in a week including playing Animal Crossing. It’s hard to compare the two game experiences (rebirth and remake) because I just don’t have time like I did during a lockdown. I feel like it’s affecting the Rebirth experience when you really can only play on weekends and have huge breaks between them Same here, but I'm on chapter 7 and my playtime is already nearly as high as my whole Remake playthrough.

History Comes Inside! posted:The 1 star summons are from the dlc/bonus content bullshit for preordering and/or having a save from the last game. They can’t be upgraded. It's a shame they went to the trouble of implementing the bonus summons but made them functionally useless after the first few chapters.
