    Final Fantasy VII Remake

    I'm surprised people might have thought equipment wouldn't change. As soon as they showed the materia in weapons (and note, the materia slots) should have known we would see the gear change throughout. Can't put 8 materia in the Buster Sword.

    Final Fantasy VII Remake

    I like your version of how it would work. Whether or not that's how they saw it, I guess we'll find out. Makes sense, though. I do hope there's even more background info about the Reunion/JENOVA stuff like there is in the original that you have to hunt around for, like talking to Hojo at...

    Final Fantasy VII Remake

    I agree with you on the concern of boss complexity, although I could easily see that first boss interacting far more with the environment in there than other bosses (just to show it off a little) will even if the fights still retain some complexity. On more Sephiroth early, it can work if...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    This was something I noted to others in my FC. Also, you don't see him saying the entire line, could be an edit to make it seem very misleading...but I doubt it.

    The only reason I'm thinking it's possible is we aren't just adding some new area/continent to Eorzea. It's an entirely new world to us. We'll see though.

    Final Fantasy VII Remake

    I've heard the DLC's help make the game a lot better, I was thinking I might need to play it if the Remake's combat mirrored it a lot. 9 months, so plenty of time if I need to do it. I get your fears on VII, although some of it delves into the "SJW fear" that I find a little overdone. They...

    Final Fantasy VII Remake

    Trust me I get the skepticism. From the moment it was announced in 2015 I was excited but worried, because I agree VII had those quirks and charms that I wasn't sure they could "update" so to speak. But the potential for them to delve more into Midgar and that world was equally exciting so...

    Final Fantasy VII Remake

    I totally understand this, but I like the fact they're talking about expanding on the story and/or Midgar hopefully. Granted, I don't think anything before or since topped VII, but I still though IX/X/XII were all solid games. It's only VIII and XIII and its sequels I had real problems with...

    E3 2019

    Yeah I'm definitely not going to rewatch it. although it has me hyped for the release, they keep saying this one is bigger than a normal expansion and basically a whole new stand alone game with the amount of content. We'll see, but I'm really interested to see where they go with it. You're...

    Don't think that script can be saved. But maybe all those weird FF8 fanbois will be happy with the remaster now.

    My nostalgia for FF probably mostly IV, even though I started with the original on NES...but VII was always my favorite. I'm sold after that presentation.

    E3 2019

    Do you mean they meant that BG 3 takes place 100 years after BG 1? BG 1 was like 1368 in FR timeline, the last "current" year for the FR timeline was like 1491 so that would be a bit more than 100 years but ~75 years short of 200 year gap.
  16. Merrith

    E3 2019

    200 years would put it ahead of whatever the "current" FR timeline was I thought. Will definitely look forward to it, BG games and BG 2 in particular were amazing.

    Final Fantasy VII Remake

    Maybe I was a bit older when I played VII than most, but while I understand the translation being a little muddled at times, I never had a problem understanding the story even back when I first played it. I often hear that as a criticism of the game and I imagine people playing it as their...

    Yeah last I heard (maybe it was a rumor) Part 1 would go up to Aeris' death, then Part 2 would pick up right after that until the end.

    Getting a little more hyped. Only 9 months to go? I assume it's just for part 1, though

    2019 NFL Offseason: Chargers Started Early

    Put it this way, I think he was easily #1 pick in fantasy last year going into the season...but he should not be this year at all.

    It's not TV, it's HBO! Ranking every full-length series thus far.

    Entourage isn't Entourage without Drama, though...who's just amazing. Anytime I go back and binge a season it's hilarious how many little things Drama does/says you forget about that are just perfect/hilarious for that character.

    2018-19 NHL Season Thread - Caps were not suck last year edition

    We've seen Rask play at a high level, but it's crazy how Binnington has kind of come out of nowhere this year and has to be up there for Conn Smythe consideration.

    I agree if he turns out like he was playing 2 years ago before he got hurt...but if he doesn't reach that level again, it could go south.

    2019 NFL Offseason: Chargers Started Early

    Source: Eagles sign Wentz to $128M extension That's a good bit of cash for Wentz. I know there was a bit of inevitability to it...but not sure Eagles fans can be completely sold on this deal this early

    It's not TV, it's HBO! Ranking every full-length series thus far.

    Westworld should almost have 3 rankings...just season 1 (maybe higher than their ranking of #23), both seasons together (no way should it be #23, more like 40+), and just season 2 (like #60).

    Yeah I'm guessing many like me pretty much thought it was done deal it was going to be shitty, and hadn't re-checked the thread to see actual positive reviews.

    Aladdin (2019)

    I'd say there was a general consensus for awhile on this that it was going to be absolute shit, Will Smith as genie blasphemy to Robin Williams, etc. If you avoided the thread around time it actually came out would have missed the actual positive reviews for it. I'm hopeful that reviews are...

    It's not TV, it's HBO! Ranking every full-length series thus far.

    It's just hard for me to imagine literally ranking 74 shows from so many different genres 1 by 1. I mean the bottom 5-10 should only be the clearly shitty ones.
  31. Merrith

    It's not TV, it's HBO! Ranking every full-length series thus far.

    You're basically agreeing with me. I would have had it somewhere around like...30? I don't know. Claiming it was only better than 5 shows on the whole is laughable, as bad as claiming only season 1 was good. It's not like everything after S3 or so was all bad either...hell I enjoyed the...

    It's not TV, it's HBO! Ranking every full-length series thus far.

    Entourage that far down the list is criminal...even with some of the later seasons. Guy acting like it should have ended after 1 season is crazy, S2 and 3 were both great.

    Le Football 2018/2019

    I only laughed because they were not in the driver seat for the PL (which they didn't win, so you were wrong btw). Credit for a great season, pretty much any other year it would have been good enough to win it, but even at the time, City just had to handle business to win it and they did.

    Swear Warriors got shafted on that out of bounds call with 51 seconds left too, seemed clear there was another touch by the ball spin even after Green touched it with his other hand an extra time.

    Although of the child/teen actors on Game of Thrones, Maisie Williams arguably has gotten the most work outside of it already. Whether or not that continues, I guess we'll have to wait and see. Did New Mutants get cancelled btw? She's supposed to be in that but might help her if it doesn't...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    Bronn had a small part in John Wick 3, Davos had a part in some mini series The Hot Zone recently. I think some people's estimations about the lack of work some of the actors will get going forward won't be proven to be true...of course, that is saying nothing on whether certain ones deserve...
