@XenonKnight You know, honestly? I'm not 100% sure whats pulling me toward this so much. I think more than anything is I love the art style. Its the cliche anime RPG but to me looks different somehow. Plus it literally looks like a more fun, more vibrant, more family friendly version of FF16 which is what I wanted. Haha
In my top 3 most anticipated games for sure. This is everything I wanted the letdown FF16 to be and more.
FF7 Rebirth looks pretty cool but it can sit the frik down if this comes out around the same time.
I'm really sad I missed this! I never tune into these because usually they're pretty lame but it sounds like it was better than most recent E3 showcases and for sure better than the last couple State of Plays!
@NEStalgia Whoa really? Yeah I just checked it out during VR2's launch week or early March and was like uuuuh...its the same if not worse than the VR1 version. Lol. Thanks for the info! I'll look into it tonight!
Played the snot out of this on PSVR and wanted to restart on VR2 but was disappointed by the lack of quality. Hoping this update makes the VR2 version better!
Haha I KNEW it was fishy when they were singing its praises. I respect all who enjoyed the game but I canceled my preorder after I played the demo. What was he expecting when he made a Final Fantasy that wasn't a Final Fantasy at all? Now if the FF9 remake is actually faithful, all we need to do to restore order is buy the heck out of it. I'll buy 20 copies myself if it meant healing the series.
Yep...too far. What a messed up world we live in where porn is just straight up baked into games. To each his own I guess.
"Just don't make your characters do it". Here is a chocolate chip cookie but the chocolate chips are poop. But you don't have to eat that part though. Just eat around them!
And before you all get your pitch forks and torches...I like sex as much as the next person (with my wife) but porn is a destructive cancer on society and is scientifically proven to be extremely damaging to the human mind. Thats why I dont support it being in games or anything else.
This game HAS to be an Elden Ring situation now. An eternity of waiting with no news and then a blowout reveal with extreme hype levels...which it actually lives up to somehow. Haha.
Believe it or not, last night I was playing VRChat and met a Japanese person who works at Cygames. I was thinking "where have I heard that name before?" Haha. Darn! I could have asked her about it. Lol.
I've been curious at looking at this again (first tried it at its PS4 launch) but heard it doesn't let you delete your save and start over. Is that true?
As with all classic remakes, I'd be both excited and terrified. FF6 is one of the best and needs more love for sure...but my faith in SE is at an all-time low after the disaster that was FF7R. If they changed any story points in a 6 remake it will be terrible. I'm equally scared for the rumored FF9 remake...my favorite game of all time.
I knew right away all the basics would pick Cloud despite the answer being Zidane. 😉 Against the emos like Cloud and Squall and the whiners Tidus and Vahn, Zidane is confident, tough, hilarious, soft hearted, and well rounded.
Anyway...there are many "right" answers to this question (Cecil, Terra, Squall, etc) but only one solidly wrong one: CRYBABY SISSY TIDUS. 😄
This is what I'm afraid of for a CT remake. I can respect the artists hard work on this (looks very faithful to Octopath) but I HATE the Octopath visual style. It takes the bright, colorful, crisp feel of 16-bit era games and just makes them look dark, blurry, muddy, and washed out. The only way I can describe this style is that it looks like the game was rolled through the mud and sat in a hot trash bin for a few days. I know I'm being a hater and am in the minority on this, but CT is one of my favorite games of all time and I would be so sad if this happened to it. The DQ3 HD 2D looked a lot better though (brighter and clearer) so I know it can be done right!
I cannot properly convey my emotions on this. For me its the game to end all games. If this remake happens and it doesn't blow chunks like FF7R, I can die happy. I could never play a game again and be satisfied.
FF9 is my favorite game of all time. Not only is it objectively amazing but the nostalgia and personal meaning it has for me makes it special beyond words.
And the fact that most are claiming its more of a Crisis Core style remake without changing the core game gets me excited to no end. That's exactly what I'd want. The less they change, the better. (Can you swap Tetra Master for Triple Triad though? Lol)
If/when this gets announced I will ugly cry like a 10 year old girl and pre-order the most expensive version they have before the trailer is over.
With my disappointment in 16 trying to be Game of Thrones and discarding the lighthearted spirit of adventure (which defines FF for me) this remake is exactly what I would need.
This was the one and only highlight of the showcase. With the recent confirmation that FF16 has enormous amounts of F-bombs, sex and gore, Granblue is now the new FF16 for me.
That was SOOOOOO bad. Granblue Fantasy Relink was the only good thing in there for me personally with maybe two other eyebrow raisers.
Personal tastes aside...I am objectively really concerned about Playstation now. If this is all thier 2023 has to offer...OUCH. what is going on over there??
Most of the stuff people are predicting I don't care about like Last of Us, Spiderman, etc. What I want is Granblue Fantasy Relink, Astrobot on VR2, and Stellar Blade.
I've pretty much checked out of the series at this point anyway, sadly so whatever. I've had 16 pre-ordered forever but I may cancel it with the recent confirmation that its absolutely filled with F-bombs, gore, and nudity. I know most don't care about all that stuff but that's just not my cup of tea and isn't the FF that made me who I am today.
Definitely one of the top 3 games on Quest, if not the very best. Its INSANLY good. Even though I bought all the DLC on Quest, I'll be double dipping for sure for the improved FOV and hopefully improved graphics.

Definitely one of the top 3 games on Quest, if not the very best. Its INSANLY good. Even though I bought all the DLC on Quest, I'll be double dipping for sure for the improved FOV and hopefully improved graphics.
