https://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/benchmark/ Benchmark is out, includes a character creator to play around the new stuff, including Female Hrothgar if you're a furry.

There's a few "dungeons" in DD2 but yeah they're not that great overall and there's not many. It also doesn't help that they're all mostly optional. Ancient Battleground kinda has nothing leading you there other than one NPC telling you about it(without a quest), the Bandit Hideout is on the way...

Na DD1 without DLC was still better than DD2 endgame. DD2 postgame is really weirdly designed, there's not that much new stuff(there's 2 new bosses but you only fight them once, twice if you fucked up some stuff lategame before postgame), you do get to fight some rare enemies more often...

Na combat is next live letter in about a month, they did say they're reworking Dragoon and Astrologian a long while back. The new effects also mostly look like higher tiers of existing skills, so it's possible most classes will only get some qol and like one passive that might switch things up a...

Lastest liveletter stuff. They've shown the benchmark trailer(which has teasers for new skill animations for every class as well as gear sets and stuff like that, available in a couple of days to use on your own PC), the new graphical improvements a bunch, they're adding a much more robust...

Had to google it, makes sense since that company didn't make any games, they were somewhat recently made and hadn't released anything yet. The guy in those twitter posts and stuff apparently worked at a bunch of bigger things and notably co-founded ArenaNet(who made Guild Wars) and worked for...

Oh physical, yeah probably just trying to clear out the stocks quickly.

Well all old games can be emulated. I vaguely remember them being re-released too in some Sega compilation.

Still seems to be 60 on the PSN and Switch websites as far as I can tell? Seems early to drop it especially since their sales didn't do poorly presumably(they sold out the physical editions in Japan in less than a week, although they probably didn't make that many either but still they likely...

I'm sure you could make it profitable, but if it was successful enough they'd just make their own version of "premium appliances" or whatever, undercut you, sign exlusive contracts with your suppliers, eventually run you out of business, buy you out, then progressively make the same thing as...

That was back when they were making mobile games though right? Not super related and yeah when that shit was big there was a lot of that stuff, as I mentionned the korean mmos I saw did several changes "just in case of", DFO changed a bunch of sprites, BDO changed an emote on Shai and like some...

Seems it's related to all the hubba wubba in Korea this past couple of years where there was this huge pushback against a radical feminist group(Megalia) and then every video game companies starting changing a ton of stuff that could maybe remind people of the logo(a hand with fingers close...

My TV isn't connected to internet so not too many issues with it. It's a Sony I bought a few years ago. Just sucks you can't really buy non connected TVs anymore, just gotta hope the firmware is good enough baseline. At most connect it once then never again(I did update the firmware when I got...

The contract for this might not be as restrictive as a big game like God of War though, but yeah I wouldn't hope for it anytime soon either. I might pick it up on PS5 though, but we'll see how I feel about it when it releases(also need reviews on length)

All you have to do is hire a random woodland pawn when you go to the elf city, then dismiss once you're done. There's really not much elven stuff that you need a pawn fully for it, the main sidequests have fuckboi translating for you, the sister who speaks with an accent and then more fuckboi...

Yeah I liked it a lot, Ricochet is super broken in caves but kinda worthless outside so it's balanced in that regard, until you run into a cave with a campfire in front then you can just switch to it and clear the cave in seconds. That shit killed a minotaur 2 rooms in when I fired it twice at...

Tales of Arise and Trials of Mana remake are 2 of the last JRPGs I played and while Arise did have a lot of story, Trials of Mana was a lot lighter on it, and both had good gameplay mixed in so didn't mind it. I guess Granblue Relink could also be considered a JRPG and the story was relatively...

There's a lot of cutscenes at the start, less so after, but still a lot, it's very much trying to tell a story. The story is pretty alright, combat is ok once you unlock more powers so overall I thought it was pretty fine, but I dropped it at some point cause of some other game I wanted to play...

It's 20% off on Fanatical too so yeah grabbed it since I figured it won't drop under 16$ anytime soon after the price increase. No plans to play this right away but well it's cheap.

Often it's just cause it uses international filters cause it's just the western version, not just the english one, so you have filters for spanish/portugese/french/german mixed in. This seems like a Xbox thing though? Not sure why they have an additional filter on top of the XIV filter, but...

Dbl

I try to stick to the less overpowered stuff cause the game's way too fucking easy otherwise. Playing with just my main mage support bitch pawn atm as "warfarer" but it's just 3 thief skills and sorc staff to levitate around for seeker's tokens and a bow to shoot at flyers. I have damage set at...

Yeah that's not at all how I read that, he was saying the majority of dyes are natural hair colors(brown blond etc) and if there's an issue with cancer due to dyes it's much more likely in these than specifically in the pink/blue shit that ppl started making fun of. Not that natural colors dyes...

Make a backup save before and then you can go and check out the ending and stuff, but no there's basically nothing to NG+, only difference is the wyrmsblood vendor has some permanent buffs that increase your xp or some shit so you can level higher, but the world is otherwise exactly the same so...

Yeah I did start a new save, cheated some vocation points a bit to make it less annoying(I had no interest in playing some of these vocations again so just maxed them) and now going for full map clear pretty much. I'm done with like 70% of Vermund stuff(have to finish the mist march/elves stuff...

Yeah just need to wait for sales. Hell it's on sale right now, it's basically almost permanently on sale so unless you're stupid and buy it in the few times it isn't, it's effectively 30$. Which is a reasonable price because even though it's old it keeps getting updates with more content, you'll...

It does look like Overwatch but also doesn't look half bad for a clone. With Overwatch 2 spiralling into disappointments, this might even not tank entirely.

Ship customization and collecting parts also sounds great for replayability. Current system of looking for crashed ships and just selling them for scraps because most of them were low tier or poor looking ships and mostly only relying on the player list to get good ones was pretty meh. If the...

7/10 or so? As an actual 7 not game journalist 7 which means utter trash. It's fun but it's far from perfect, it has many of the same issues the first game had, some even worse(the story is somehow worse for example). Still is enjoyable enough for me as I like the combat and I like playing the...

So finished the game, went to NG+ to get some stuff fixed, but I'm not liking NG+ much, they kinda fucked that up. There's no scaling so everything's dumb easy(guess you can equip shit weapons but even then) and the map is entirely revealed, which is actually annoying cause I can't tell which...

Na the only time my FPS drops is inside Vermund, even Bakbathal doesn't seem to affect it cause it has noticeably less NPCs. Honestly they could remove like half the NPCs in Vermund and it'd more or less fix the problem, and wouldn't affect much as most NPCs are pointless.

I also messed up the Fighter one, I thought I'd have time to do it later. I got the sorc stuff done though but largely because I looked it up before turning it in. I don't know how good the mage spell is though(I've been lvling random vocations on my pawn to not waste points), it consumes all...

One thing that got me to aggro random guards(not every NPC mind) was dropping the various permits in my storage I thought they'd just keep working but apparently you need to have them on yourself otherwise some guards don't like it. I doubt it'd aggro the whole city though, I've seen a few ppl...

Just like DD1 though you can gate it behind a fair bit of gameplay to make sure random timmy doesn't end up quitting 5hours in cause he thought he was hot shit. Just make it an augment on Warfarer(thematically sounds nice too), it's the last vocation you'd naturally unlock so you're not gonna...

You technically can yeah but makes the game a fair bit harder. You can just tag with your own pawn which levels normally and you can gear up and ignore the 2 additional, less damage but not that bad, this way you can keep your pawn as a mage for heals/debuff removal/elemental weapon buffs. You...

Yeah iirc they mentionned no rez on it, basically putting in the BLM category. Can expect a lot of damage. Funny that Summoner who has Bahamut and Phoenix power and Red Mage who uses lost magic that combines both white and black magic will lose out to the pixiv hentai artist.

I mean Elden Ring was also often garbage? Out of the 100+ mini dungeons, most of them were pretty bad, I cleared them all and I can only remember maybe 5-6 of them. Most had ashes for shit skills or summons for shit summons with generic monsters and a generic boss fight. The actual dungeon...

Oh btw there's some spoiler important stuff about the disease pawns can contract(they always mention it after you use a riftstone). This seems like an overall awful mechanic that has no upside and massive game ruining downsides, not sure who thought it'd be a good idea to have that result...

Warrior is really great, so much better than DD1 and even then I liked it cause of the big smash stuff. But now you get both the big smash and a lot of qol. Have a counter/block skill, can use 4 skills like everyone else, has good fillers for trash mobs("light" attack with the correct timing for...

Delve league though But yeah point is it's entirely free, you just pick the nodes and you get the buff+100% niko(and can get 100% shrines too since it's on the same path) and it just gives you free stats that are quite nice when you have shit gear to get started. Can do other stuff but the fact...
