@TheDavidVinc@SquareEnix They are still under pressure. Sales aren't good enough and they have to deliver now. I'm still sceptical about anything they do, because as a Dev they fuck up more than not.
@FinalXV Turn based played a role in getting the JRPG fans. The graphics and presentation was key though for getting the casual Gamer. Add a good story and well written characters and you got yourself a hit.
@azuredestinys Oh FF purists will play this I assure you. Casuals though? Probably not, because of the art style. Thats really not mainstream. But I as a fan of the old FF am very excited and hope it mops the floor with FF7 Revelations.
@TakunHiwatari And still. BD is not Final Fantasy. Octopath Traveler is also not Final Fantasy. FF Resonance is appears to go in a right direction, but it has to be seen to say, whether it has that FF feel to it. But people like you pretend to not understand what FF fans want.
@mikrokosmically I mean yeah they could've. Cut all the bloat, don't stretch everything out and you would've easily gotten FF7R as one game. Maybe not one disc, but one game. And lets be real Rebirth shouldn't be 150gb, its just badly programmed.
@Sebbywebz@SuperdoucheDoge I think what our less articulate friend wants to say is that in Revelations the weapons actually look like biological creatures instead of crafted ones.
@Sebbywebz I think their alright. Look more like what nature would conjure up as a line of defence. I think they showed only the things that wouldn't trigger OG fans in the trailer. No Zack. Minimal whisper bullshit. Weapons. I thought they wouldn't add the weapons at all tbf lmao
@blue__jest Let me tell you. They made a already great story worse. If you Remake something, make it better. They split the story of one game into three to pull more money from customers. Key scenes don't have the same impact (Dyne, Cosmo Canyon, Aeriths death scene).
@ManletThorin But the sales won't be significantly better here imo. You have to play both parts to make it make sense to play the third. Rebirth sold badly, so people have to buy Rebirth and play it.
@DiscussingFilm Revelation will be cringe, it will change key moments of the OG for the worse and it will somehow find a way to drag the runtime out with boring filler side quests nobody cares about. FF hasn't been good since FF10 in 2001. So much for "cosistently good" as I read here.
@DiscussingFilm Then finally this dumbster fire of a Trilogy is over. Realize how they showed nearly nothing of what they changed in Revelation? Clearly trying to lure in OG fans with a false pretence. It probably will be better then Rebirth, but this series is unsalvagable.
@_deceptionfalls ITS A SPINOFF FFS. I don't get why so many people don't get this. If it was a mainline title then ok I get it. But this is a spinoff that bridges two mainline games. It could even be turn based, because it is a SPINOFF.
