This is a much better trailer than the first one. Still not vibing with the art direction yet, but that Morrigan showcase get me a lil bit hyped up for it.
Vessel of Hatred, Fantasy Life 2, Metaphor, Romancing Saga 2, YSX: Nordic, Farmagia, AC:Shadows and now Dragon Age: Veilguard. Oct-Nov is gonna be stacked.
I absolutely love this franchise and while the 9th entry was a disappointment, I still look forward to their future release. Hopefully Origins would be the experimental release that eventually merged both regular Dynasty Warriors game with their Empire counterpart for more RPG experience.
We don't have enough proper Norse-themed RPG; and while this looks really rough (understandably so for an Alpha trailer), I'm actually looking forward to learn more about it.
Absolutely. Good for those people that have the time, tenacity, and patience to enjoy souls-game or any other brutal difficulty games but they are just not for me. I knew that and I'm not going to pretend that I'd enjoy it. Hell, I tend to even set my games to Very Easy or Story if there are difficulty options available.
I wish I do have those qualities I mentioned above though, as it seems that I really missed on a great game in Elden Ring. Oh well, it is what it is.
This is the equivalent of going to a sushi restaurant for dinner and complaining to the manager because some of the menu items are raw. JFC these snowflakes...
It was a fantastic game, especially coming from FFXV disaster and compared to the the garbage that was FF7-Rebirth.
Great characters, great boss fights (Titan desert boss fights that was designed by three Square Enix legendary encounter designers were definitely my favourite), awesome cinematics, excellent darker mature storyline, and actually fun combat for an RPG.
CBUIII really did a great job on this game and if there's one thing their experience kinda goes against them, is the sheer amount of irrelevant bloated side quests that plagued the game especially closer to the end. That definitely came from their MMO experience.
And this is just being blown out of proportion from this website as it's always the vocal minority that gets the spotlight. Majority of FFXIV players don't use, visit, or even post in the official forum. I honestly didn't even know this was a thing till Push Square pushed it.
"Are you looking forward to returning to the world of Thedas?"
Nothing they've shown so far actually made me "look forward" to play it. Especially after Nintendo direct showcased a bunch of other RPGs and JRPGs crowding autumn/winter release that actually interest me.
They really need to stop telling about the game and start showing more. After CDPR and Cyberpunk, they can tell whatever they want but till I see it in action before launch, I won't believe them.
Oh tell these minority healers to ***** off. I main AST and I'm not striking with these snowflakes and their temper tantrum. I bet these are ex-WoW players too as we never had this issue before as FFXIV community has no time for this bs.
I also play every jobs in FFXIV with all max gears, I'm sure there are a lot of us that can and will switch jobs to fill in the gap while they throw a temper tantrum.
I'll wait till they show more of the RPG system that made the franchise an RPG. So far the gameplay reveal has displayed none of: Skill trees, character progressions, and gears/loot system.
Till then, in the same universe where we have a game like Baldur's Gate 3 as an RPG, in what way is Veilguard an acceptable showing?
If there's a national team that needs to be banned from their PS5, it's the England team as they've must been sleep deprived with that Southgate's snoozefest of a first match performance.
Penacony is absolutely one of the best written story in any RPG I've ever played.
Pair that with one of the best music arrangements in Star Rail history with one of the best boss battle to nicely tie this chapter in one satisfying journey,
Better than the trailer but I'm still not blown away by it. Gotta have to wait and see if they brought back all the RPG features that made Dragon Age an RPG game because I just saw the team had a boss battle after waves of enemies and absolutely 0 loot. So no loot system? crafting? etc?
Honestly, I have the same uneasy feeling I had when they showcased ME: Andromeda and we know how that ended up.
@bindiana yeah I'm not sure why they're approaching the trailer as a Souls game when the actual game was really far from it.
It's really more Ghost of Tsushima with character creation. The boss fights can be similar to Sekiro due to its parry mechanic but there are difficulty options.
This is a true open world RPG, don't worry.
And difficulty options are here to stay. The studio wanted to make the game accessible to everyone.
I played the closed beta on PC and it was really good for its current state.
The trailer really doesn't do it justice. It's a full open-world RPG with anything you can think of that made it an RPG. Crafting, Dungeon, World-Boss, Side Quests, Activities, factions (martial art schools), gear qualities, talent trees (and of course ability to learn other school of martial arts and wielding different weapons), and many more.
There was a point where every single JRPG players have abandoned their hope to see the continuation of this outstanding Falcom series being localized in the west after Sky
So I'm a bit emotional now thinking that we're only two Trails game behind from Japan with this new release in Kiseki Connected Universe.
@BeerIsAwesome What remake/remastered game titles in the past decades that didn't come out with "remake", "remastered", or a variation of "reloaded" in their title to differentiate it?
@ThroughTheIris56 You do know that Sony has been covering the bills for promotions and marketing materials for any Square's games that are PS Exclusives right?
Those people that were so vocal supporting Microsoft gobbling these studios back then because it provides them with a stable environment to create are surprisingly quiet now.
After back to back failure with Andromeda and Anthem, temper your expectations on this. It's still EA and whatever left on that shell company that used to be Bioware.
"Releasing this year" with absolutely 0 trailer and gameplay showcase when Atlus has been busy with their marketing works for Metaphor releasing in October. Yeah...
The issue was not Liam though was it? it's that egomaniac Lauren and her writing team that thinks they can craft a better story than the source material; when they all failed as a real book author.

Re: Preview: Persona 3 Reload's Episode Aigis Remake Will Still Divide Opinion
I'm just annoyed that you can't buy just the story pack without the other two fluffs I don't care about. So I'll wait for a deep deep sale.
Re: Square Enix Has Got Fans Talking About a Final Fantasy 13 Remake, Not a Remaster
FF13 trilogy was probably the one FF series that leave the least amount of impact on me. I could barely remember anything about it.

Re: Metaphor: ReFantazio Director Explains the RPG's Lack of Persona-Style Romance
I'm ok with that and he's right, it absolutely fits with the theme.
Persona settings have always been in a high school, and they're a horny bunch
Re: Players Won't See Every Dungeon in Metaphor: ReFantazio, JRPG Offers a 'Lot More Freedom'
ATLUS games have always been a multiple playthrough for me to see everything. So this is a welcomed news.

Re: Poll: Can a Game's Brutal Difficultly Put You Off Playing It?
Absolutely. Good for those people that have the time, tenacity, and patience to enjoy souls-game or any other brutal difficulty games but they are just not for me.

Re: Poll: One Year Later, What Are Your Thoughts on Final Fantasy 16?
It was a fantastic game, especially coming from FFXV disaster and compared to the the garbage that was FF7-Rebirth.
Great characters, great boss fights (Titan desert boss fights that was designed by three Square Enix legendary encounter designers were definitely my favourite), awesome cinematics, excellent darker mature storyline, and actually fun combat for an RPG.

@Wiceheid exactly this.

Re: Poll: So, What Are Your Thoughts on Dragon Age: The Veilguard?
@NEStalgia You meant FFXVI though right? FFXIV is an online MMO and arguably one of the best MMO in the market right now.
Re: Poll: So, What Are Your Thoughts on Dragon Age: The Veilguard?
I'm not sold at all, but I'm open to seeing more.
I'll wait till they show more of the RPG system that made the franchise an RPG. So far the gameplay reveal has displayed none of: Skill trees, character progressions, and gears/loot system.

Re: Video: Is Concord Destined to Fail?
@AdamNovice It doesn't affect me as I have a PlayStation.
but I'm also a PC Gamer where we'd rather not play the game when it's exclusive to Epic Game Store than actually made an Epic Game Store account.

Priced game with PSN account required for PC players. You're delusional if you think this game is not DOA.

Re: Open World Martial Arts RPG Where Winds Meet Announced for PS5
@bindiana yeah I'm not sure why they're approaching the trailer as a Souls game when the actual game was really far from it.
It's really more Ghost of Tsushima with character creation. The boss fights can be similar to Sekiro due to its parry mechanic but there are difficulty options.
This is a true open world RPG, don't worry.
And difficulty options are here to stay. The studio wanted to make the game accessible to everyone.
Re: Open World Martial Arts RPG Where Winds Meet Announced for PS5
@FuriousMachine The boss fights are souls like, but you have difficulty options to make it easier like Rise of the Ronin.
I don't play Souls-game as I hate them, but Where Winds Meet will be a day 1 for me.

Re: Assassin's Creed Shadows Pre-Orders Already 'Looking Very Strong'
Why? is the gameplay trailer out?
it's a Ubisoft game:
1. It always looks better in the trailers.
2. It's 50% off in 6 months.
Stop pre-ordering from this studio.
