    Final Fantasy 16

    If they don't have some sort of option where she at least gets to "live a life", there will be a lot of fans pissed. Pretty large number that thinks if there's any changes at all, it has to be so Aerith lives because clearly that has to be the only change that matters (I don't get that, but...

    Final Fantasy 16

    Honestly I still trust them, but I'm kind of on the "I like what they've been doing to highlight Cloud's issues for the obvious payoff coming in part 3" side of the fence...assuming what seems pretty obvious there is what they are going for (if its not, then what the fuck?). I've liked all the...

    Final Fantasy 16

    That's an interesting idea, and one I had thought of after playing through Remake, the fact Sephiroth is so attached to Cloud, maybe he is the one that actually needs to die. Not convinced that's how it'll go anymore...as for all the theories about the ending of "did she or didn't she actually...

    Final Fantasy 16

    Fits right into a theory I have about how people reacted to the ending of Rebirth. If someone was always a big "Aerith's death is the most emotional moment in gaming!" (etc, also applies to many people who came to the game later on based on the hype her death scene has gotten over the years)...

    Final Fantasy 16

    Rest of the game? All that was after was end boss fight and ending cutscenes. There's some pretty obvious stuff going on with the Rebirth ending, too, although various theories apply. Some solid vids out there like subTXT on YT (although should warn LONG vid). OG 7 was not primarily...

    NHL 2024-2025: Definitely the Leafs year

    See I'm the opposite, I think we got really great CF by those being CF. By that point of the playoffs, those 4 teams seemed like they deserved to be where they were. Other than Carolina's weird problem once they're actually in the ECF. But I'm also the type who really likes building those...

    NHL 2024-2025: Definitely the Leafs year

    Isn't this ironic given we had pretty good Conf Finals this year (at least, good teams in them) but both would have been 1st round match ups in a 1-8 setup?

    Final Fantasy 16

    Agree the Eikon fights were fun, they did just get a tad ridiculous at times. The fight with Titan was fucking top tier spectacle. Bahamut in space just went a little beyond what felt natural. I don't mind cutscenes when they're telling a good story. The demo definitely helped it sell, no...

    Final Fantasy 16

    I'll defend a little more of 16, the story was actually pretty decent, just had really poor pacing in certain stages of the game. All of the stuff with kind of the "mini boss" of the story Barnabas felt a little out of order and dragged out. All of the shit up until the crazy fight with...

    Final Fantasy Tactics - The Ivalice Chronicles

    The original SNES FF6 (or FF3 as it was called for us western plebs back then) had so many broken things about it. The normal evade stat didn't work, so dodging anything was based on MBlock (magic block). Sketch ability could completely corrupt save files when it missed, and a lot of the Esper...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Meracydia seems the obvious choice. Already been talked about and foreshadowed quite a bit, related to the 6.1-6.5 storyline saving Vrtra's sister, and ties to the 13th, as well.

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Also 7.3 should tie up the DT MSQ, 7.4 and beyond will be leading us into whatever 8.0 story will be. Wonder how much info we'll get on the Key in this, or if that will be left for Y'shtola to figure out in 7.4/7.5.

    Final Fantasy Tactics - The Ivalice Chronicles

    Just remember JP scroll glitch and item dupe being nice to avoid grindy leveling stuff to get to late game classes, and actually being able to use some of the high level Samurai magic abilities without fear of the unique swords breaking.

    Man, it's kinda sad to see. AB really does have a case to be very high on the all time receiver list. top 10.

    Ultima way more involved in the story then Necron was.

    Feels like something they might get around to, if Tactics gets well and Ivalice interest goes up.

    Final Fantasy Tactics - The Ivalice Chronicles

    Yeah they hired Matsuno (directed Tactics and XII) to help create them, but was always meant to be an alternate universe retelling. He also wrote the Bozja story, including the Save the Queen stuff, which apparently was an unused story idea for a potential Vagrant Story sequel.

    Final Fantasy Tactics - The Ivalice Chronicles

    Jfc Gavin, sack up. But at least you're right about the Gabranth part. Supposedly follow up to that/Bozja stuff in limbo b/c they didn't want to do another "liberation" story so quickly. Which...kinda makes sense.

    NHL 2024-2025: Definitely the Leafs year

    Pass, although the interesting thing is I don't think we'd have enough cap to even do that, this year. After next year is when we explode in cap space with another rising of the cap and like ~$25M coming off the books.
  32. Merrith

    NHL 2024-2025: Definitely the Leafs year

    This is why I'm so hopeful for our future. No one on the Caps has ever even had a cap hit of 10 yet, and Ovechkin and Carlson come off the books after next season. Replacing Ovechkin's goals will be something, but with Leonard, Cristall, Protas' younger brother, and a few others in the...

    NHL 2024-2025: Definitely the Leafs year

    Honestly conference Finals both going to be pretty damn good. Rooting against Carolina for obvious reasons, but not sure I'd want a Florida/Edmonton rematch. Florida/Dallas could be pretty lit, though.

    Yeah I feel like if that gets called a goal on the ice, it stands as a goal. Toronto Torontoing as usual.

    NHL 2024-2025: Definitely the Leafs year

    Shocking but Toronto is in Canada. If Toronto won the Cup do we think Canada would be like "no we won't count this one because the team has some American players on it" (less than the number of Canadian players it has, btw). Better for the sport if they lose? Selling. They've been tough...

    NHL 2024-2025: Definitely the Leafs year

    Shit is rough because I feel like we played like shit for a lot of this series, not that Carolina didn't deserve it, but closer than it ended up being. Didn't finish well enough at all, but man LT let in some random soft goals the last few games (was good the first 2 games at home, since then...

    2024-2025 NFL Season - Dak Prescott's MVP Tour Part 2

    It was quite a good QB class. Jury out on whether all of them will last, but I'd bet on at least 4 being semi long term starters.
