Beat Esoteric Ebb.

It's the next in the Planescape: Torment and Disco Elysium line. That means the writing is GOOD, and there's LOTS of it. Ebb leverages their mechanics in smart ways, and it looks and sounds great. Funny, emotional, and even educational! Strong GOTY contender.

Fitting.

Here's a short message from Producer Kadowaki regarding the difficulty that some players have expressed.

[Sonic and all Characters @SAAC_News]

Any AI assets are used only as placeholders that are being replaced with manually created materials, says the Crazy Taxi: World Tour lead, Kenji Kanno, to Kotaku.

“We used it as a reference, so our artists would pull up [and] generate some of their ideas, and then they would look at that, you know, generated image, and then they would draw the actual thing. So actual creators, everything from programming to assets, everything is made by an actual human. It’s only used as a reference for them to look at, and then they would actually create the actual thing that would go into the game.”

SEGA is far from the first company to use AI for such purposes. While such publishers often face initial criticism, it seems that the tool is becoming the industry’s norm.

Lots of FF7 Revelations details from the Naoki Hamaguchi Denfaminico Gamer interview:

- You get the Highwind quite early in the game
- You can fly around the entire world freely
- If you reach the end of the world you end up on the other side like a globe.

- Zack will be a more important part of the game than in Rebirth
- Wutai is fully depicted
- Rocket Town will appear towards the end
- Underwater world will appear
- Knights of the Round will appear
