    Wait, are you saying there are FFT mods that add cut Lucavi/maps back in? Where can I find these mods? I assume you're talking about the PSP War of the Lions version. I need to start getting into the mod community in general. I've modded literally nothing over the years, except Elder Scrolls...

    JRPGs

    Did you play FF7R? The ending of it shows something new happening at the end of Crisis Core. It's idiotic and they should have left Crisis Core alone, but I'm still surprised that this new version of Crisis Core doesn't even have the slightest whiff of referencing FF7R's ending. I'm actually...

    JRPGs

    Dreams about FF Tactics are pretty far down the list of reasons I need professional help. And yeah, I've been realizing lately that Square-Enix is lazier than I thought. Not just the Tactics Reborn laziness, but also Crisis Core. The remaster seems really well-done, but they didn't add anything...

    JRPGs

    Not sure what thread to put this in: I think this is where we were discussing FF Tactics so I guess this one. I keep having this recurring dream about playing an FF Tactics with the cut content / maps restored and multiple new Lucavi demons. I mean they only gave us five out of the twelve...

    Playstation 5

    I don't know, I only have 55'' and 65'' LGs. IMO 55'' is the sweet spot for PS5 visuals. I'm on a 65'' right now and it's a bit excessive considering I tend to not sit too far from the TV, but it'll probably be perfect for a PS5 Pro and onward if we get anything more advanced console-wise any...

    Final Fantasy VII Remake

    I think people are fussing way too much over Teenage Tifa. I doubt Square-Enix changed her on purpose to be more "SJW", I think she just ended up that way. Her character model isn't very detailed, so she's likely one of the aspects of this remake that they went low-effort with and didn't spend a...

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    This is also my strategy with farming the Brass Shield in that first camp. Get a bunch of levels, get a shield that might never get replaced. Generally you want to grind levels in areas that you're also farming something from, or are learning how to play better with. There are a couple of big...

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    Samurai is the best class to start. Put a lot of points in HP early and for a while, then switch to whatever stat boosts Uchigatana attack the most (I think dex). They start with the best starting weapon (Uchi) which is good for a while, and you can get a second one fairly early in the game to...

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    The difficulty isn't as insane as it appears...it's not that bad if you overlevel. At the outset it looks daunting. Game gives you no hints, puts a very strong boss right in front of you where you start, etc. That boss isn't representative of the overall game, it's just there to put the Fear Of...

    JRPGs

    I played some Collection of SaGa on the Switch. It's pretty good, though nothing you can't emulate easily enough. With one exception: Turning up the game speed doesn't affect the sound. That's pretty awesome. Started FFL1 (SaGa 1 in Japan). This is the most basic/rudimentary of the trio. FFL2...

    January 4th Dynamite is gonna have a much-needed new look and set, brighter and more colorful. Though hopefully not the bowl of Fruity Pebbles look of current WWE. I don't think we'll see giant 3D shapes hovering in the air.

    Final Fantasy VII Remake

    Surprised we don't have more Crisis Core discussion going on here. Are people spending time with their families or something? I'm curious as to whether there's any new story in CC to tie in with the FF7R series. Particularly at the end, since they already rendered the end of CC pointless and...

    DC Universe (Batman vs Superman thread).

    It's hilarious to me that Flash is getting a solo movie like 6 years after he was introduced in the ensemble movie. The cart isn't gonna pull the horse here. Even more hilarious that the current DCU is gonna end with Flash and Aquaman movies that should have been out in like 2020 at the latest...

    Final Fantasy I-VI Pixel Remaster Series

    I'm really over all this "Limited Run" type bullshit that has gained popularity with publishers in the last few years. Artificially drive up demand by making something scarce, probably cost themselves money in the process by not doing a normal goddamn release.

    DC Universe (Batman vs Superman thread).

    Pretty much. Every time I get excited about something DC, it's like "nevermind that was a standalone, we're not following it up lolol" "Darkseid is coming!" in Justice League SC. Oh man, this is huge. Annnnnd it's gone. "Superman is turning evil!" oh boy, I want to see how we get to this...

    Terminator (2019)

    Yeah, I'd rather see a Terminator prequel trilogy (like Salvation, except the Cameron version) from him than 3 more Avatars. Wish he'd wrap Avatar up with 3 and then do something with Terminator. Given how bad Dark Fate was, though, I don't have a ton of hype for a Cameron-run Terminator movie...

    Final Fantasy I-VI Pixel Remaster Series

    Gotta say, the rollout for the Pixel Remaster console collection was fucking idiotic and took a lot of the wind out of my sails. This was probably my most-wanted game outside of Fromsoft, too. I missed the window to buy it just like everyone else did, and apparently it ran around ONE HUNDRED...

    Damn, that seems pretty game-breaking. The game is pretty easy so I don't think that's particularly necessary, unless maybe you're playing on Hard mode or something.

    Wait, what? Does it have an FF2-type leveling system? I don't remember that at all from the original CC.

    Final Fantasy I-VI Pixel Remaster Series

    Yeah I think FF4's rare drop RNG is just astronomically low. I read somewhere that you have a 1/4096 chance of getting the Pink Tail every time you get into a fight in that one room. 1/64 chance of encountering the Pink Puffs and 1/64 chance of them dropping the item. That's pretty absurd...

    Final Fantasy I-VI Pixel Remaster Series

    Yeah, I love stuff like that. Secret of Mana and Earthbound also had a few rare drop weird items that were potentially best-in-slot and whatnot. Earthbound's were particularly cool, but so rare that you'd way overlevel if you went for everyone's best weapons. And Secret of Mana had like 18 rare...

    Death Stranding

    I played another hour or so. I can see this game getting super tedious. Having to cross all this landscape, with Sam tripping constantly and having to deal with footing issues... it's realistic, yeah, but it slows things way down. I just want to run from point A to point B. I guess that's why...

    Final Fantasy I-VI Pixel Remaster Series

    I have a similar issue with Dragon Quest 7. Really want to play it on my phone (like I did with the first six in the last few years) and there isn't really any good way to do that. I'd take a Switch port too. Only options are PS1 and 3DS. PS1 I can do, but it'd be on a TV. 3DS, not getting the...

    Final Fantasy I-VI Pixel Remaster Series

    Already sold out at the Square-Enix store, both Switch and PS4. Why not just give it a normal retail release? The fuck. For a second I got excited. Probably gonna end up being a scalper-fest on Ebay if you want something non-digital.

    The Paranormal, UFO's, and Mysteries of the Unknown

    First sighting was a bright sunny day. The only reason I even saw the thing I saw was because the sun kept glinting off of it as it moved around erratically. I thought it might be a seagull for a second, but after watching it for a few minutes, it was metal and rounder. It kept disappearing, but...

    The Paranormal, UFO's, and Mysteries of the Unknown

    How credible do we think this one is? It doesn't look like any kind of reflection trick. I saw something I couldn't identify the other day. A shiny object flying around above a river and disappearing, then reappearing, for about 5 minutes. It was too far away to get a good look at or get any...

    Final Fantasy I-VI Pixel Remaster Series

    Locke can solo one path of the tower? How? If Locke can solo one path, then most characters can solo one path. Which is true with proper min/maxing. I once had Cyan solo one path with level 99 and octa-slash relics. I never found Locke to be a standout among the cast power-wise, outside of...

    For me, Guardians of the Galaxy 3 was the last, 3D glasses, trailer. Other than that the trailers were the same set. Was an AMC theater. They did the whole self-indulgent AMC "movie is starting" bit with Nicole Kidman sitting in a theater and talking about how crucial movies are to our society...

    Avatar 2 (2020)

    I actually had a major issue with the diversity in this movie. The human invaders in the movie are portrayed as almost entirely white men (and one Asian woman). It was unacceptably low diversity. Where was the diversity in casting for the irredeemably bad and disgusting comic-like villains?

    Watched this opening night, got a bunch of stuff to say about it that I probably should have written right away because now I can't remember a lot of it. I'll probably say more about it later on once I mull over it again. I'm glad they brought back Stephen Lang in a new, deadlier form. That...

    Final Fantasy VII Remake

    Don't think anyone posted this. I'm really looking forward to getting some Before Crisis content in this remake. FF7's prequel that not only did we not get, but not many seem to know exists, because it was trapped being a Japan-only phone game in the time of flip phones.

    Final Fantasy I-VI Pixel Remaster Series

    FF6's final dungeon has you using 12 party members and yeah this can be a problem for people who only used the same 4 for the most part. Cause you want at least 6 strong characters by that point. If you have all 14 characters, you end up having to leave two of them behind. What two did other...

    Death Stranding

    Played the first hour or two. Daaaaamn. This game is awesome. It's very Hideo Kojima. So much weird-assedness, horrifying bosses, a generally esoteric and ethereal story that doesn't quite fit in our world. I had trouble turning it off. Stunning. Good for depressed people. I can't wait to see...

    Well, given that their definition of "white supremacy" is constantly shifting around, next week it might just mean "white people" again. What is Valve doing to fight white people? Hopefully Valve tells Maggie "read our TOS" and "fuck off"

    Wait, @Seananigans is the guy who kept saying I had more game time than him and played all the time or something! But seriously, if I can get one of these Playstation reports, I bet it'll come out to like 2 hours a day averaged out which is about what I predicted I do. Elden Ring might have...

    Final Fantasy I-VI Pixel Remaster Series

    Yeah, it amazes me to this day that WoB and WoR are like two totally different games and yet both come off as fully epic stories. But I'd have liked to see more with Kefka in WoR as well. He wins in WoB, then just sods off until the final battle. Pretty incredible game altogether. And yeah, on...

    She is getting the money she thinks she deserves. It's a LOT Not sure what's going on with her and Kairi. I think she's gonna be in AEW starting in January, and she's going to make bank (hyuck) between that contract and her overinflated NJPW contract. The AEW Women's Title scene is pretty...
