    Final Fantasy Tactics - The Ivalice Chronicles

    What sucked for me about the Tactics Ogre remake was the final boss. One of the worst final bosses I can think of in any RPG. Absurdly hard fight and it's two stages so you get to repeat the lengthy first stage every time you lose. Maybe the original TO had a final boss that ridiculous too...

    So they...added voices and some phone game type UIs? These companies sure are good at selling people things they already have.

    At a fairly heavy-traffic Best Buy and there are only about 30 people in line 5 hours before the midnight release. Supposedly they have about 120 systems available (not sure if that's extra, or includes preorders). Good chance they won't even sell out on night 1. Funny thing is, they keep...

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    Yeah the Guardian's ultimate was superb for reviving people on the big boss, especially if the bodies were close together. Once corpses have 3 bars, it's such a PITA to get them revived that the fight's probably out the window by then anyway. Guardian's ultimate knocks out all 3 bars instantly.

    I'm considering waiting in line for it tomorrow just for the fun of it (last time I waited in line for a console was the Wii in 2006 or so and that was a fun time). The actual system, however, doesn't particularly excite me. It's basically waiting in line for the latest Mario Kart, when it...

    I had a few groups that kicked ass on day one and then fell apart on day two (either going and beating their heads against the pot-throwing castle, or just wandering around aimlessly).

    That's what happened to me with my last TV buy 3 or 4 years ago. I was hellbent on getting a 65 inch LG G1, but nobody had it. A couple months went by of nobody knowing when they'd get them in, and the company itself not even knowing when the next round would ship, so I gave up and got the LG...

    Dredd 2 (2026 Confirmed!)

    Endgame's logic gaps were its weakness, for sure. Watchers building a sanctuary that isn't on holy ground (or is and the bad guys ignored it) is pants on head retarded. Unless one subscribes to the idea that Jacob Kell was just so evil and so powerful that he decided to completely ignore The...

    It just me or does Johnny Storm look weirdly like young Robert Downey Jr? I still remember Young RDJ and he looked just like this guy. Maybe in their universe Tony wasn't Tony, became the Human Torch instead of Iron Man, then later becomes Doctor Doom? This would also explain Doom fawning over...

    The Fantastic Four: First Steps (2025)

    First Steps IS a pretty infantile title. However I'm guessing it's either a reference to them being astronauts (the first people to go beyond what we were allowed to do, thus bringing Galactus here) OR it's supposed to be infantile because the society they live in is essentially sheltered and...

    Basically the remake of this movie turned Zeist into a lost ancient civilization (~15,000+ years ago) on Earth. The people there are all immortal, and their technology advanced to where they were able to send people to the future (they'd lose their memories) which is how immortals are created...

    Well that's it for me, lucky #13, we got the cerberus down to basically nothing and fell to attrition due to nobody having any heals left (for like the last 50% of the fight lol). There goes another 45+ minutes with zero gains. Maybe I'll try this again in a few months when everyone knows what...

    Another thing I don't like is how most of the actual good weapons need a Somber stone to upgrade, and I never ever get those. I'll end up with a few regular stones at the end of a world and six weapons that can't be upgraded by it. 12 runs now, weird how often runs end with a boss at like 5%...

    The castle with pot-throwing trolls is horrible, yeah, as is the Redmane Guard camp with someone firing arrow rains from a tower. That one suckers you in with "a bunch of guards are a boss? This'll be easy" and then pastes you with Radahn-style arrow rains that track your movements for some...

    I haven't sold the game yet. I'm not done / haven't given up until I sell the thing. Right about now it really does feel like a waste of time to play with my rapidly-dwindling mortality though.

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    Out of the 10 runs I did, the 3rd or 4th (can't remember now) was still the best one. Both people seemed to know where to go, and kept putting pins down for where we should go next, making everything simple. We still died to the cerberus at 50% health, of course, but we accomplished a lot more...

    The "this game is something" moment for me was walking around Qeynos, stumbling on the harbor right when a boat was coming in. It was also pouring rain at the time. Up to that point the only 3D game I'd even played was Mario 64, making it even more stunning to inhabit EQ. I think that was back...

    Yet another loss to the Cerberus at about 50%, we did really well on that one too for a fight with a 40 minute run-back. I thought that was going to be the one, since I finally (after ten runs) had a holy weapon the boss is weak against. Nope, still did basically no damage because level 9. Now...

    Protip: L3 sprint is WAY faster than circle sprint. Was wondering why some people were outrunning me by a lot at first. They really need to get rid of the "level loss" thing, it's what kills the game. And add a checkpoint before the world boss.

    How very 2021's of him That would explain a lot. The two times I got to the cerberus, my party was barely level 10 (like 9-11 in range). Certainly not 15. On the latest run, we actually did really well, and got the Cerberus to half health (surviving his initial triplet-split) at level 11. I'll...

    What'd he do, he a woke? Bowing to public pressure and edited out the link. I know nothing except I saw a password somewhere and it worked (at first). What should I be spending my currency on? None of the available items actually seem good, except maybe Besmirched Flame?

    This game is probably the hardest it'll ever be on day one, before anybody really knows what they're doing. In a week it'll likely be much easier to get through in general. Six runs and have yet to beat the first world, though I got REALLY close on run 4 by actually reaching Cerberus and then...

    Finally got to play some of this. A few characters seem to be missing, only have 6 available. The assassin lady helped with the intro boss, died, and is nowhere to be found in the Hold. Weird thing happened, first time I picked the cerberus level, it sat at "matchmaking" for ages until I...

    Sounds like Pharone was in an empty pick and didn't switch to a better one. If anything, I'm surprised Oakwynd did so well. Would have expected it to be down closer to Fangbreaker territory. It wasn't preceded by a Teek that seemed to make people pretty happy, though.

    Seriously. If a game takes up LESS of my time that's a good thing. If somebody has absolutely nothing going on and is bummed that the EQ server is only taking up 50 hours of their life instead of 100 this month, it's a good indicator that it's time to go outside or find other things worth your...

    Final Fantasy VII Remake

    WTF are they doing in panel 1? I always kinda headcanoned that Rinoa was descended from Tifa. FF8's world is a lot more advanced than FF7's (maybe another century or two of tech evolution) so it could pretty easily pass for a sequel set in another area of the planet.

    Nightreign would be more appealing if it had more bosses from across the Fromsoft spectrum. It isn't just quick boss fights though, it's collecting stuff on the way to them (seems to not go beyond Limveld, which is like an alternate Limgrave). Each of the 8 levels is like a 40 minute endeavor...

    Yeah the "top guilds" it spit out are completely bonkers. All it would need to do is find the various <server>progress sites and get data from those. Off the top of my head, and some of these could be wrong. Combine: Realm of Insanity, ? Fippy: Twisted Legion, Citizen (Dima) Vulak: Echoes of...

    Lemme know if you need an extra party member at some point, cause I'll be on PS5. Reviews of this seem to be all over the place, zero consensus. It lacking replay value and being over fairly soon are actually positives at this point.

    Not being able to field a group in one of the most heavily-used newbie zones =/= thinking it's 1999. If there's no one to group with at orc hill then that's an issue. Are 200% bonus zones even a consideration at that level? There's no POK to fast travel.

    With Luclin zones, potions, and a bonus, I'd expect powergamers to level AT LEAST that fast. Luclin start servers are really fast cruises to max level. However the 50's can still be a slog if you fall behind the curve and have to compete over the best zones. Worst case scenario is a Kunark...
