Wow, I'll never understand how people can get so worked up over the opinion of some random stranger on the internet xD anyway I'm not sure if I'm gonna buy the game yet, but if I do I'll be sure to tit the...ah I mean TILT the camera every now and again^^

I didn't have ANY thoughts about the look of moogles until reading this. I choose to continue doing that.

This will leave Dragon Quest as one of my favorite franchises lacking, however now is not the time for that. Best wishes for his family and friends!

Was pleasently surprised to hear Aimer sing for this trailer^^

I'm not that much into action games, but I wanna play through this game at least once for the story. Slightly looking forward to this^^

@CutchuSlow Same thing for me. Trailers reveal way too much in my opinion.

And yeah I know the feeling of buying a game and finding out that it's just not for me...or straight up bad. So far I've always been to lazy to request a refund though. Sometimes it works in my favor where I download the game a couple years later and suddenly enjoy it. Sometimes I'm just not in the mood for certain games.

I liked P3P better, so no reason for me to buy this as well.

@Ryne-Gaia I think they'd need to focus a bit more on their presentation. Persona is a great game, but it can't be understated how much attention they got for their flashy UI and stylised graphics.
Trails would need something unique of their own to stand out.
It's also more difficult to get into Trails with their continuous story across all their games. People do stick with it once they get started ('cause the games are excellent) but getting them to try is another matter.

To cut things short, I think they have a long road ahead of them to really break into the mainstream.. I wish them luck

@CutchuSlow That's not how I prefer to do things, but feel free to do so yourself^^

I do like my women sexy in games and free costumes are always nice, but gameplay comes first. I'll wait for some reviews and let's play before I make a decision.

@Ryne-Gaia: I wouldn't know but a quick google search shows me 7 million a year ago. So with the slowly rising popularity and three new release since that year I'd guess a little less than 10 million by now.

However I only care about sales as far as it being viable for them to release their games to the west.

@DragonBl : I'm not disputing that. Still only a couple games VS the whole SMT series, which would add at the very least another 10-20 mill. Not that it matters, but it is still doesn't make it a good comparison.

Finally the date I needed to plan my vacation around xD

I wouldn't compare the whole FF-franchise to a spinoff from the SMT-franchise, but yeah.

I don't comment on rumors and speculations.......ups

@Cloud39472 : If you don't like the artstyle don't force yourself. Sometimes it's worth though to get over certain humps. I for one am very glad I did. Nothing sits higher on my list since I started that series.

@Darylb88 Damn, you're right. Thanks for the heads up. So all is not well for me anymore-.-'
This means no media blackout about this game for me anymore and waiting for reviews beforce making a decision. Still probably gonna buy it at some point anyway though....still hoping it won't be as tedious with months of nothing worthwhile to do...

I'll be a little late to the party but will definitely play at some point!

Wow, this counts as news these days? I can't imagine someone getting mad over this -.-'

As long as it doesnt have this tedious calender system all is well for me.

Would have been better to synch up the rebirth tifa with the undershirt-less remake tifa honestly but that's just my testosterone talking I guess xD

Well, it's the insides that count, right? I'll take these kinds of games any day over some safe big budget games. I'm always pleasantly surprised by the new mechanics/ideas/innovations and risks smaller games tend to make^^

I don't usually care much for demos, but I can't get a feel for the gameplay from the videos about this game at all, so I'm gonna see for myself if I can live with this seemingly action-tactics hybrid.

@Cloud39472 Just my opinion. I'm sure you're not alone with yours^^
I do wish we had a MC with an actual personality though...I'm getting a liiittle tired of the whole "silent protagonist" kind of thing with all the SMT games. Maybe Metaphor ReFantazio will have a MC with an actual personality. One can hope..

Didn't like the main character. He looks so stupid. Worlds were also quite empty if I remember correctly. Would probably buy it again on PS5 though xD

Not my kinda gaem, but happy for the devs!

@Frmknst : It's more of a gut feeling, but basically how he acknoledges the talent they have, while not losing sight about the realities of the cost and wanting to cultivate an understanding of this by the studio leaderships. He also seems to want to understand all the wheels turning beforce getting in and mindlessly changing everything. It's all the things that should be expected from one in his position, but rarely gets put into practice. It's not exactly how I feel, but it's hard to describe (as gut feelings tend to be). Also it's not like I deeply thought about all this, it's not my company xD

For now it's just pretty words anyway.

Hiroki Totoki seems like a smart man. I like the way he looks at things. We'll see how long he'll stay though.

I don't much care for Sony's 1st party titles, but I AM wondering what the studios are all doing. Some of them have released nothing for considerably more than 5 years.

Got a lot of other stuff to finish before I can even think about BG3, but seems to be a good choice for me. Hopefully they'll be done with the game in 2,3 years when I get to it xD

I don't play online multiplayer but it's refreshing to still see somewhat decent monetisation models every now and then.

Can't we wait even this one week without milking this topic? All those rumors and speculations will be obsolet when Microsoft drops their "event". Why not discuss it then? This is all such a waste of time and energy -.-'

I read "not currently support" so they could still bring it back in some way to unify the services. But I don't have a horse in this race. I was just curious.

It could be GOTY and still not for me.

A little too flashy for my taste but you can't win 'em all. The most important thing in menus for me is that they are organized well and lightning fast. Nothing worse than choppy menus.

I played the portable version so much that I burned out on this game. I wonder if I'll even finish this remake. I certainly won't play "The Answer" as well. But happy for those who wish to.

Maybe a little controversal, but I always pick the english VO whenever available. It's a matter of convenience for me as I don't wanna be forced to read and oftentimes there is banter without subtitles which means missing out on context. I've gotten so used to them by now, I even tend to prefer them over my native language.

Sometimes I skip games with only asian VO entirely as I can only take so much high pitched sounding girls and people screaming all the time. There are exceptions of course..

I literally bought an Xbox Sx for this game even if it turned out to be a little underwhelming. Would be great as I really had to fight with their controller. I planned on playing Starfield again after all the expansions, so no rush.

@NotSoCryptic : Sure, if that's the hill you wanna die on, enjoy yourself (:

@NotSoCryptic : I'm not gonna even bother to explain how much more work it is to completely redo a 2D game in 3D with 4k textures and all the bells and whistles like FF7R did. If you care enough to try and correct me about it, inform yourself a little and you'll soon realize what I mean.

They never really stopped prototyping and researching handhelds in the first place. Doesn't mean they'll ever release one. Always with the rumours. We would waste so much less time if we just focussed on announced and existing stuff -.-'

I understand the feel to need to react to bad tweeters, but this is usually just fuel to the fire. I'd just ignore all of it. No oxygen, no fire.

Hmmm, I'm a little less sad now about the cancellation. Jensen really sold the game for me. He was such a great character (in my opinion at least).

God damn it! This had become one of my more favored franchises. Well, nothing really stays dead forever in this world. All the best to the devs!

@LordAinsley: Yeah, would suck if it was a game I was really attached too. Luckily this is more of a "nice to have" game for me, not a must buy (:

Man, I really hope you can hide characters you don't use. I don't wanna search around for 10 minutes everytime I wanna use a specific character xD

So that means waiting to play it on a PS5pro or PS6 for me..IF they get a 60fps version.

You can cut that time in 4 by making it a 2D remake, just sayin'

How can they still be with Embracer and not have a publisher?

I imagine the conversation @Ubisoft went like this:
"We need to space out the AC games so the fanbase don't get oversaturated".
"Ok, but what do we do in the off years then?"
"Oh, I know! Let's remaster the old AC games!"
"Brilliant!"
