@nessisonett Not really, Cloud softens up immensely once they leave Midgar in the original. He was awkward till the end of disc 1, but a lot of his cray-cray issues were caused by a certain lab specimen whose name starts with the letter J, Sephiroth, and his mako poisoning. He stopped being a d*ck long before the end of disc 1. Of course given the massive changes in Remake this could well pan out differently.
Honestly PS5 and NeXtBoX should be postponed for a couple of years and just focus on one more wave of current generation releases since there are 100 million PS4 owners versus the maybe 1 million PS5 owners by the end of its first year on the market. There is no way that the PS5 will sell well at all during this economic turmoil and will likely fail to reach even Wii U numbers if Sony goes ahead and launches the console this year as planned.
@playstation_king Also games such as FF VII Remake and Trials of Mana have already gone gold so there's no reason to delay them since those games are already finished and ready for release.
Just as long as essentials such as food, water, and electricity are still available we'll live. Seriously though if our power company were to shutdown out of Corona Virus fears it'd be fatal for 100,000's since my city can push 120°F during the Summer...
@Jaz007 No because the groundwork and engine are already developed so the next parts will come much faster. I'm guessing we'll get an episode each year after part 1.
@Jaz007 It's not THAT bad. I'd say it's mediocre at worst and decent at times at best, but that's just my opinion. It's still decent enough to play through once and delete given that it's a freebie.
@JayDub You do realize that the vast majority of us would rather play a game we want in September 2020 then have to wait a few years to get a PS5 to get it, especially since it won't look all that much better on PS5 since it was developed with the PS4 in mind.
@FullbringIchigo Actually no they didn't. The anime ended at the end of the Alvarez War arc while the manga continued on into the 100 Year Quest arc where the gang take on a quest that is expected to take them 100 years to accomplish. 😉
@FullbringIchigo Also I feel bad that Trials of Mana will have to wait, but we gotta show love for the Fairy Tail JRPG. Who knows, if it sells well enough, maybe the creator & Funimation might decide to resume the anime and aire the final story arc, whether it's a movie, OVA, or a short 12-13 episode one-off season?
@FullbringIchigo I'll be getting this and FF VII Remake as my birthday presents on April 2nd. That said I'll probably focus on FF VII Remake until I beat it, much like you.
If true, it'll use proprietary SDD's that'll likely cost 3x what a standard SSD would cost? Has Sony learned NOTHING from the Vita's commercial failure.
@ShogunRok Absolutely, I actually have the current vanilla version of FF XIV and have sunk 100+ hours into it. I only login during the free campaign weeks. Usually binging it for 8 hours a day during those free periods.
@FullbringIchigo You don't lose access if a game is delisted dude. You can still redownload if you purchased the game. The only exception I can think of was the PT demo and that of course was just a demo.

Re: Xbox Boss on PS5: We Have a Plan That Can Win
It's all a moot point since it's unlikely either console will sell particularly well given the economic depression we are on the verge of.

Re: Coronavirus Could Very Well Lead to PS4 Game Delays
@playstation_king And why not release digital first rather than shelving it for a couple of years and bleeding dry financially?
Re: Coronavirus Could Very Well Lead to PS4 Game Delays
@playstation_king Also games such as FF VII Remake and Trials of Mana have already gone gold so there's no reason to delay them since those games are already finished and ready for release.
Re: Coronavirus Could Very Well Lead to PS4 Game Delays
@playstation_king except a vaccine is 12-18 months away there will be no game industry left if they take a 12-18 month vacation.

Re: Final Fantasy VII Remake Trailer Shows New Theme Song, Honey Bee Inn, Red XIII, More
@Nakatomi_Uk Funny you should say that because Red XIII is the ONLY one I immediately liked when I first heard it on the trailers of this remake.
Re: Final Fantasy VII Remake Trailer Shows New Theme Song, Honey Bee Inn, Red XIII, More
@SuperSilverback I see, okay that sucks.
Re: Final Fantasy VII Remake Trailer Shows New Theme Song, Honey Bee Inn, Red XIII, More
@BarefootBowser Well all sectors of Midgar will be able to be explored and will have new story sequences for each previously unseen sector.
Re: Final Fantasy VII Remake Trailer Shows New Theme Song, Honey Bee Inn, Red XIII, More
@Flaming_Kaiser All summons are pre-order? Oh, I'm guessing because you normally can't get any till the stables.
Re: Final Fantasy VII Remake Trailer Shows New Theme Song, Honey Bee Inn, Red XIII, More
@kyleforrester87 I heard it's a 60 hour game that takes 100 hours to complete 100% in an interview article I read.

@Gfoot Ratchet And Clank was a PS+ offering back in March 2018.

I keep editing them, but the edits are turning into new messages when using my PS4 browser.
Re: Kingdom Hearts III Re Mind - Grandiose DLC for Hardcore Fans, and That's About It
@3Above I agree $30 is insane for what you're getting and will wait for it to drop to $10 during a sale before purchasing.
Re: Kingdom Hearts III Re Mind - Grandiose DLC for Hardcore Fans, and That's About It
@3Above @TowaHerschel7 The price was available from launch day and lasted for a week or two.
Re: Kingdom Hearts III Re Mind - Grandiose DLC for Hardcore Fans, and That's About It
@3Above To be fair WoFF DLC was only $12 at launch for those of us who already had the base-game "at least in the US".

Re: Rumour: Is the Recently Patented PlayStation Cartridge Upgradable SSD Storage for PS5?
@Sanctanox @David187 @hi_drnick I fixed my comment to be closer to what I actually meant. Sorry about that guys. >_>
Re: Rumour: Is the Recently Patented PlayStation Cartridge Upgradable SSD Storage for PS5?
@David187 @TowaHerschel7 I forgot to say If true, gah I shouldn't comment before the roosters are awake.
Re: Rumour: Is the Recently Patented PlayStation Cartridge Upgradable SSD Storage for PS5?
@Sanctanox I meant "HAS" Sony learned nothing". It was almost 4:00 AM when I commented. >_>
Re: Rumour: Is the Recently Patented PlayStation Cartridge Upgradable SSD Storage for PS5?
If true, it'll use proprietary SDD's that'll likely cost 3x what a standard SSD would cost? Has Sony learned NOTHING from the Vita's commercial failure.
Re: Mini Review: Valfaris - Heavy Metal Headliner Is Hellishly Worthy
@b1ackjack Yes!
Re: Mini Review: Valfaris - Heavy Metal Headliner Is Hellishly Worthy
@hi_drnick It's like a cross between Contra and the older Castlevania games imo, and it's an absolute blast to play!
Re: Guide: Long PS4 Games
@ShogunRok Absolutely, I actually have the current vanilla version of FF XIV and have sunk 100+ hours into it. I only login during the free campaign weeks. Usually binging it for 8 hours a day during those free periods.
Re: Guide: Long PS4 Games
@FullbringIchigo FF XV is content-packed, but the main campaign is less than 20 hours in length.
Re: Guide: Long PS4 Games
I suggest Fairy Fencer F: Dark Advent. That game is 100+ hours in length.
Re: Guide: Long PS4 Games
@ShogunRok @Syndrome Especially since Final Fantasy XIV is 250+ hours including DLC lol.
Re: Guide: Long PS4 Games
@roe Dreams and LittleBigPlanet 3 are basically PS4's Super Mario Maker's in-terms of having an infinite amount of content.
