Re: Square Enix's New AAA Games Are Being Trounced by Final Fantasy 14

@LowDefAl Thanks for that. I wasn't sure if I should continue but if I am in fact still at the tutorial phase till Lv 50(story missions right?) just to get new players up to speed with the ARR segments and can expect a significant improvement there after then I will slog it through. Now while I'm doing this if they can announce a FF8 remake...

I'm not sure what the hype is for ff14. I've been playing it a week or so (30 day trial). I'm on lv 40 and it's been endless fetch quests with a bit of story in between and that's if you focus on the main story which you're forced to do or the side quests and job quests remain locked till you progress. If anyone else is playing it, at what point does it get better?

Re: MultiVersus Underperforms, Another $100 Million Blow for Warner Bros

The characters aren't beloved enough to be in a smash type game. Bugs and co have been almost obsolete for decades now. Who was their demographic? They're better off using Netherealm to make their horror universe and launch each new character with their origin story and theme for each season. I'd pay more interest in that than whatever this was trying to be.

Re: Wolverine PS5 Lead Dev Leaves for Xbox's Perfect Dark Team

All the best to him. I hope he can bring Perfect Dark back to it's original glory and then some. I was unimpressed by the trailer shown earlier this year. Marcus has already worked on Spiderman so I'm expecting better things for Wolverine which I was currently on the fence for in terms of interest.

Re: Random: Killzone Superfans Want to License the IP from Sony

Horizon is an okay game I've played it a couple of times always got about half way through and got bored. It's great that there are players who think it's fantastic but that goes to show you that everyone has preferences. I've seen a few comments on here talking about how much money it made meaning it's an awesome game but as I've mentioned I bought it too and never cared to complete it and I'm pretty sure I'm not alone in this.

Killzone 2 and 3 were my go to FPS games back in the day and that's when I had all 3 consoles so I had Cod and Halo too but preferred the Killzone franchise out of the 3. If a decent remake is released I'd probably choose that instead also. I'd say the least Sony should do is see if there's a worthwhile proposal and GDD presented cause at the end of the day their IP's represent their brand even if they never see the light of day again. Alternatively they could do what Epic did with Paragon but lock them into releasing it on their platform and see what comes of it.

Re: 25 Years Ago, Square Released the Best Final Fantasy Game

VIII was and will always be the best FF imo. Juctioning was amazing. seed exams while I was having exams in school was a kick in the teeth but fit the narrative. It was the only FF where the player truly lived the characters lives before the madness began. Every other game plops you in the middle of battle after the game begins and you learn their back story along the way.

Re: Bungie's Making Headlines for All the Wrong Reasons Yet Again

z0d15g0d

Hmm... I need to see the contents of the allegations before I condemn the man. Most game devs (that I know of) are pretty nerdy with limited exposure to the opposite gender. The ruling narrative in our society for men (which is pretty unfortunate) is "be successful and women will like you". I've known enough genuine guys who have approached girls and been treated like they were about to murder them.

Re: Your First Look at Wuthering Waves PS5 Was Filmed on a Potato, But It Looks Smooth

z0d15g0d

It's a really good game and I enjoy it quite a bit. Yes it's flashy as hell but once you know your combos (not very complicated) and you've fought certain enemies a few times you know the animations of what their attack is so you can either dodge or counter. I got ChangLi who's probably got the flashiest move sets and after some practice I know exactly what's going on. I will say though that in their version of "Simulated Universe" you get additional skills and sometimes the entire screen is filled with SFX and then the enemies corpses.

Re: Genshin Impact Fan Frustration Boils Over As Backlash Goes Viral

Isn't the rule "If they have giant eyes and a triangle nose they're not humans they're a cat species"? You will notice this in the majority of anime too. If they're going to add a character with melanin they're usually portrayed correctly if all the other characters are humans too (for those of you thinking DBZ). This game is about humanoid cats in a cat universe no reason to get offended but I do see where you are coming from.

Re: Poll: Are You Playing Zenless Zone Zero?

z0d15g0d

@themightyant Damn that sucks. The combat is less mashy than ZZZ or Genshin. Each character has their own combinations, Synergies and timings(plus digimon). Hopefully they bring it to console soon so more players can get stuck in.

Re: The First Descendant Enjoys Strong Launch Numbers, Teases Content Roadmap

z0d15g0d

Really enjoying this at the moment. Has a few minor issues that need ironing out but to be expected on day 1. Lots of warframe comparisons in comments online and that's a good thing. It's about time others look up to a great game that's f2p and been going strong for 13 years. Before anyone tries to say "Destiny 2 is f2p". It's not. Tell me a single player that has Conditional finality Shotgun without buying the Lightfall expansion.

Re: Yet More Leaked Wolverine PS5 Gameplay Has Appeared Online

z0d15g0d

@PuppetMaster There aren't that many around anymore. I was giving an example of how things used to be. Now it's just a comment or so a year from the devs. If they did drip reveals like they used to these hackers would most likely give up. They'd probably drum up even more hype for their games as gamers try to dissect what's happening in the images.

Re: Anime Sensation Kaiju No. 8 Getting Game, But No Word on PS5, PS4

z0d15g0d

This series is pretty amazing. Reminds me of attack on titan but with kaiju. Not sure if a gacha system will work for this seeing as they all wear the same uniforms. The appeal of gacha is that there is diversity in the characters looks and skills.
If this game doesn't feature destructible environments its not going to be worth it to me.
