If you're tv/monitor supports hdmi 2.1 / VRR, use Balanced mode for HL, looks great and a stable 60fps. Much better than resolution or performance modes.

Really nice, the free T9 is a surprise, but is fitting since Season characters will be able to use it. Great to see southern Mediah being released along with a msq dealing with Illezra. The Lantern item is interesting too, though I wonder if it was a mistranslation for Calpheon Cyclops instead...

Sure, and as @joz123 mentioned, you'll get access to many other high quality games.

Did you get beyond that screen to see how it works, or just nope out immediately? I did and it's more than just jumping back into the fight shown, the one I selected out you at the very beginning of the overall encounter, so noped out. There is a similar, but complex activity that opens up...

Thought that was Bolok for a moment, but he only makes comments about how its not a FF game and doesn't play it.

If the little % and time gauge shown on the FF16 home screen are accurate, I'm at 45hrs and 66% progress. I'm a few hours past Titan.

Fyi, the easy mode shit will become useless in some of the activities you might want to do.

Starting to see some cracks in the quality of the Story, like segments of a story sequence don't quite match up:

I understand where you're coming from since I do it all the time with comparing MMO's to BDO, wishing they had this or that aspect of BDO which I like and which makes BDO the best MMO I've played. That is entirely a ME issue and not an issue with those other MMO's. Not trying to defend FF16...

I have to slightly disagree with the exploration side of things, but only slightly. People are right in saying there really isn't much reward for exploration, we won't be finding hidden areas or dungeons in this game... which is disappointing to me as I love exploration. Yet, I have found 4...

Once you Master a skill, you can use it in all other Eikon sets.

This comment here is what I'm talking about as making no sense, and most likely coming from a FF fan that considers one or more of the previous games to be their favorite. There are reasons to explore, if you don't ..well it sucks to be you. There are rpg elements which get more varied the...

Game plays really smooth on Graphics, which I hated at first and couldn't play at all in the Demo, but now is great. To everyone else, especially those with fond memories of previous FF games, where are you at in this game? I haven't read a single complaint from any of you that makes much...

Dang.

Eh, kind of a quick take on the combat side of things. The combat will be as complex as you're ability to use combos and combine Eikon abilities... that is ALL up to you. This is a case where if someone says the combat sucks, it just means they suck. Now, if you're patient and open up more...

Switch my TV into "rpg mode" instead of "fps", and for some reason, the motion blur while in Graphics mode seems less? Dunno, looks and runs great now. I would say I've just finished the first Act of the game, and saw a funny cutscene:

I tried JP at first, but the lip-syncing was so off that it was distracting, so back to English, totally fine with it.

The only thing holding this game is the performance, its OK, but given what else I've played this year (which looked nearly as good, Hogwarts / Lies of P), I find it disappointing. Rather impressed that the VA's they are using are capable of voicing emotion as good as JP voice actors.

I would suggest to not play in Graphics mode until there is an option to disable to tone down the motion blur, its really harsh on Graphics mode, but not bad at all on Performance. Not sure how this game will be on the eventual PC port, but I imagine you'll need to brute force it to get 4k...

The DMC guy said FF16 is his best work. Seems to be the case, but it'll take awhile to get the combat rolling with all the various combos of Eikon attacks.

Yea, there is a vid posted here talking about NG+, and the changes it brings.

I think the difficulty will be in NG+ / Final Fantasy Mode.

Extreme spoilers in the DF video, fyi. Also, performance seems kinda ass. Mostly 30fps in Quality mode, but it dips. Performance mode isn't locked at 60 unless you're in combat, and will drop quite a bit while outside combat.

Control type B switches dodge to circle and puts attacks on r1 / r2.

I'm guessing you haven't killed many World Bosses since hitting T3 because the Grand Cache will drop sigils, and you get at least 2 of those a week. If you want sigils, but you're not doing WB's or Tree, well, you're not going to get any. You won't be able to craft or salvage sigils until you've...

Yea, I'm doing something wrong such that the game keeps dropping useless gear. You must be right. These are the typical shit I get: Trash.

My Sorc has been in T3 since lvl50, it is now lvl62. I've found exactly 2 Sacred pieces of gear which were usable (weapon / neck), everything else is still normal shit that I've upgraded. So the class feels like shit atm, and I have no real desire to play. Sad.

Use the Ring of Timely Focus. Pressing square will auto-use combo attacks when/if they are available. Its an action based combat, so "spamming" is always going to be a thing.

Others have said that the explorable zones are large and open, but still zones that you load into. I believe the Demo shows only a story instance (goblins), not an actual explorable zone. I'm hesitant to buy the game as its a PS5 exclusive for awhile, so its locked at 30-45fps for most of the...

Change the LMB key to something else, like Mouse 4 and you're good to go. Move with LMB, use some attack on M4.

Yea, Heidal Ball should/might be in July.

Yea, I was impressed with LE game systems, but animations / graphics were a bit disappointing. If these guys could get the funding to update their graphic engine / fidelity to be on par with D4 or PoE2, it would be a massive hit I think. I love their skill tree and the "endgame" mapping more...

Imagine being a game studio having to pick which composer to select for your game from a short list like Masayoshi Soken, Keiichi Okabe, Mick Gordan, or Jesper Kyd. Would be rather funny hear what Gordan or Kyd would do for a Final Fantasy game.

That $1 million first prize for the Capcom cup this year will bring a lot of ppl to the table.

I highly recommend anyone who likes Soulslike games to get the Demo and play it. It is really good, surprisingly so. The combat, aesthetics, and performance are all top notch. The only jank I saw was voice acting and dialogue. All platforms, and also day one Gamepass. The demo is quite beefy...

Since they have an "uber" Lilith, I can't see them NOT adding more such bosses each Season as the pinnacle encounter.

Farm Whispers, NM Dungeons, Bosses and hope for a T3 sigil to drop... do that one and you'll unlock Crafting / Salvaging sigils which will let you make up to T18 (I think) while in WT3.

Nope, I'd rather not. Yet, if we only had to do Renown one more time, then never again, sure. The biggest reason I stopped playing PoE Leagues was having to do content that I disliked (Story arcs, once was enough).

My hope is that we'll need to do Renown once on the Season server they have for Seasons, so after this first one we'll never have to do full renown again.

Just give me sexy alien nymphomaniacs and I'll be ok with the mods.
