    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Bleh. Honestly I enjoyed the order hall version of it, while catching up, I obviously got some of the garrison quest done and have a full list of followers for that, plus the shipyard stuff...but I never delved deep enough into those to know how it was. Mission table in BFA is a pale version...

    They're the one set I still need to do. Skipped Omega 5-12 from last expansion. I did the Ivalice 24 man raids just recently to catch up for the new "relic" weapon quest in the current expansion and the music and throwback to Tactics/XII was pretty nostalgic.

    I wouldn't expect X to get it just because it already had an HD remaster. Actually IX did as well, along with XII. VI probably the most popular after VII overall. Over 30 years old not that big a deal, FF7 was 23 years ago.

    Final Fantasy VII Remake

    It's way better than XV's and quite a lot of fun. Although if you're a turn based purist I can understand. From what I hear Classic mode isn't really even close to the same thing so the game wouldn't scratch that itch at all. If they actually were going do Remake another one I wonder if VI or...

    Final Fantasy VII Remake

    Maybe they will after this, could add in some more actual interaction with Kefka in WoR. I know it's basically a meme at this point that many FF fans consider him the "best villain" but I think they dropped the ball a bit by having nothing with him basically for the entire 2nd half of the game...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Honestly what finally got me to come back to the game (since just casually checking out leveling in Cata just to see the new zones) in Legion and to come back for start of BFA wa curiosity with where they went with all the stories and all the zones/lore I missed in between. That also means that...

    I did as well, although Wilbon and Kornheiser(sp) stop really giving a fuck basically as soon as they were on TV. Around the Horn was fun for a bit, but format got old fast.

    Not going to lie, I looked on line and first thing I saw said "wait until Aerith rejoins party". Loaded up on magic D, gave Aerith elemental with ice in her armor linked materia, and went to town ezmode.

    Final Fantasy VII Remake

    The Roche shit was a little over the top, but it works for being an early antagonist and felt the bike scene was a lot better than the original (nothing special, but the original was as basic as it gets). One thing I noticed, while it is cool to be able to see the materia in their slots on...

    Final Fantasy VII Remake

    Going to disagree about the music, I love how a lot of it is just slightly different but still completely recognizable. Tifa's Theme on every jukebox, though. I'm in Chapter 8, been trying to pace myself (and too many friends wanting me to play squads on CoD). Loving the combat, usually just...

    Not trying to read spoilers, but they definitely made no secret is wasn't going to just be vanilla remake awhile ago. Final Fantasy VII Remake details: reason for multi-part release, CyberConnect2 collaboration, more - Gematsu That's from way back in 2015.

    Leecher Aug blueprint has 5.56 with 60 round mag. It's fun.

    I don't expect Part 2 will take 5 years, but I also think expecting it in 12-18 months is a bit crazy, too. My guess would be ~3 years.

    Also, clearly the only acceptable way to max the darts minigame in 6 throws is 3 triple 20's, a single 20, a triple 17, and a bullseye to finish.

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Was able to knock out all the craft relics, and finish the combat relic quest where I can get whatever one for 1k poetics before FF7:R came out. The gathering ones suck, though. Just a timesink (craft ones are too, ~450-475 macros and you're done, but at least I had all the mats I needed...

    Yeah, you mash square button a bit for ATB, but then it's all about making good choices (aside from basic enemies that you just wreck in one ability or just from a square button combo).

    The shit when Biggs offers to upgrade your weapon and Cloud says no and Biggs respond "What are you, a purist?" was a nice touch.

    I don't see why you would skip them, aside from the exp/etc, most of the better item rewards seem to come from them. Saves you money buying a lot of extra materia/equipment.

    Final Fantasy VII Remake

    Yeah I don't know if they meant to do more with XV's combat and it just was cut, but it was shit. I heard they kind of made magic better in one of the DLC's but never saw/tried it to know. Still trying to avoid spoilers and haven't run into many changes yet, mostly just additions. We'll see...

    It's hilarious to just walk around some of the open areas and listen to all the convos regular townspeople have.

    I'm loving the combat. Especially when I compare it to how bland XV's was. But I understand the want for the tried and true turn based.

    Final Fantasy VII Remake

    You're probably even further than I am, but I've definitely noticed there is an efficiency to combat knowing which stuff you can just power move quick to kill versus stuff you need to get Pressured/Staggered in order to take down quickly. Often it's using an element spell or different ATB...

    Final Fantasy VII Remake

    I'll just say that I've run into a door or two at this point, but it's such a small thing compared to how 99% of the game looks and feels. As far as actual game goes...so much materia. So many choices.

    Did you digital? You could pre download it earlier this week to have avoided this.

    Final Fantasy VII Remake

    Like 2 hours in. Loving the combat, game looks amazing. Definitely little stuff you pick up with the combat as you go, which enemies you can just finish off with power moves and which you need to do more stuff with stagger gauge. You aren't short of materia to use, either, tough to know what...

    If you can get an Aug with the 5.56 ammo conversion, it can put in some work. I had a legendary blueprint for one called the Leecher or something? 60 round drum. Can fit longer barrel on it for range if needed, but that thing can shred in close to medium engagements.

    Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2019

    MP7 with 60 round ammo upgrade is nuts. You do need some attachments though to make it viable over some range, though. But up close it just shreds. Aug with the 5.56 sixty round upgrade is pretty nasty, too. You can put extended barrel on it for range, as well.

    Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2019

    I feel like that's much more a thing in the gulag. But yeah, the only thing I think is rough is with the crossplay and latency differences, there's just stuff that happens on your screen that isn't the same in opposing players death cams, and vice versa. Where you can't see someone at all but...

    Final Fantasy VII Remake

    I've still been avoiding spoilers, so I may be off base here if they changed more than I'm thinking, but even in development they definitely made airs that the story wasn't going to be the exact same, and part of the limitation of the old hardware was you had to "fill in" some stuff with the...

    Yeah I'm basically missing out on rank exp, weapon exp, or achievement credit randomly depending on the match. Kind of shit.

    Final Fantasy VII Remake

    I have a high expectation that I will probably love it, as long as I find the combat fun. It looked fun from what I saw of people streaming the demo, with a chance to have some actual depth. It's not like the original 7's combat was hard, but I really loved all the shit you could do with...

    If AJ Green is healthy this year, Burrow might have him, Tyler Boyd, and Auden Tate to throw to. Arizona with Hopkins, Fitzgerald, and Kirk might be on the short list, too. Also some other groups might pick up some sick receivers in the draft this year.

    Final Fantasy VII Remake

    Early chapters I wouldn't expect as much as the later ones, obviously. Also everyone's opinion of "fluffed out" will vary, I'm sure. Some will not care what it is and think it's all amazing, other want it all to be terrible and call it filler regardless. I'm just trying not to read any actual...

    Speculating that every chapter is going to be the same length of main story seems a reach. I'm sure some of the later ones will get more heavy into it.

    Still another week for digital I guess. Was hoping they'd release it early, too, but if there's a Day 1 patch for some bug fixes I doubt it they'll just wait until then.

    Final Fantasy VII Remake

    Well if those numbers are right, length wise I won't be concerned about me "not getting a full game" out of it. But opinions will probably vary on how much they feel is filler versus what actually works for the game.
