If they fix some of the wonky character animations during cut scenes, it might be worth it for that alone.

Is it too simplistic? I have plenty of games I’d consider kids games that I haven’t returned.

It’s about the data. It’s always about the data.

I played through final fantasy 16 on PS5, and well… Let’s just say I’m not in any hurry to play through it again.

Once you’ve figured out how the combat works, there’s really no additional depth to it. The summon fights look spectacular but aren’t all that engaging. Lots of spectical, not a lot of challenge. The game is absolutely gorgeous, but it’s so so shallow in gameplay. The side quests are extremely boring. The main story is ok too. They really tried to be a lot more serious like game of thrones, but still kept it like right below that mature line, so it felt like a half measure to me.

There is absolutely no depth to the weapons or equipment outside of ‘number go up’. There aren’t any elemental weaknesses in you or the enemies, so The only challenge comes from the actual fighting technique, perfect blocks perfect parries, and chaining together different summon powers. If you like the combat, you’ll enjoy doing the monster hunts, but there aren’t many hunts compared to other ff games.

Overall, the story is decent, if a little lacking in focus. I’d probably say it’s worth picking up on sale, but it is not really worth the current price tag at all. It really is a shell of a final fantasy game compared to the past games. It’s a great looking action game, but it’s shallow.

I mean, I like to think Sony made it perfectly clear this time around. There’s really no excuse this time. People were warning other people, Sony had it on the system requirements sheet, and Steam had it listed as soon as the page went up. So if you still picked up the game and then decided to bitch about the PlayStation Network requirement because you didn’t know, that’s on you.

Flipside, if you bought the game just to bitch about the PlayStation network requirement, knowing full well this would be a requirement, you’re way more privileged than me. When I don’t like how someone does something, I typically don’t give them money unless I don’t have a choice.

Oh to be someone outside, looking in at this series… It must look absolutely insane lol. As someone who’s been playing these games for years now, this feels right at home for this series to me.

Ah, so Konami clearly hasn’t paid attention to Square’s experience with exclusives on PS5. So I guess this game isn’t going to meet sales expectations either.

So Georgia Republicans have clearly decided they have no chance to actually win this election. So they’ve decided they’re gonna lie and cheat.

I know this sounds horrible, but for the Republicans to be this panicked doesn’t exactly bode well for their chances, even if they cheat.

Everyone needs to turn out to vote. No excuses. No sitting this one out. If you aren’t voting but have the ability to, then you need to reconsider sitting this one out.

The Nazi’s continue their harassment campaign.

He’s the legal equivalent of a toddler saying “I’m not touching you” while constantly putting his hands close to you.
