Was same boat but I’ve done a flip hard to console. It’s dumb. PC is more money up front but software is so much cheaper. And I could just move my pc to my theater system. I’m just paying for laziness I guess.Sucks I have to wait for the PC port. I'm just not a console guy.

You and I have very different definitions of laziness. As a PC-only guy, I consider myself lazy because I don't like having to move back and forth between Console and PC depending on what I want to do. I'd rather just sit in front of my computer and do all the things: Internet, Gaming, Emails, etc.

Yeah. I’m being lazy about a new build and installs and getting shit to work sometimes. And I have a decent surround system so I enjoy the base up and no headphones so my kids love it and the wife bitches.

Connecting a PC to a TV was still total ass last time I looked into it. It works but DTS:X / Atmos is a pain in the ass and unless something changed quite recently HDR is still broken even in Windows 11. Only time I touch my PC now is for games that either must be played with m/k or ultrawide is such a massive advantage it can't be passed up.
What pisses me off is the PS5 exclusivity. I'd much rather be playing it on Series X like every other third party game.

Resetera posters are mad about the lack of diveristy in a game based on medieval Europe.
Will You Boycott Final Fantasy 16 Due to The Lack of Diversity & Minority Characters?
So despite notable criticism and backlash online regarding the lack of diversity in the game, and square's continuously questionable response to the topic, it seems a lot of people are still planning to purchase FF16. This feels...a little odd to me, because it would seem like the best way to...www.resetera.com
that thread was locked because it had a voting poll and like 90% of people said they were gonna buy it anyways
finished Jedi Survivor today (new patch fixed game breaking bugs) and all ready to play FF16 on thursday, woo

It’s going to suck but I’m waiting for the my vacation in the last 2 weeks of July to play this.
I’m still playing Diablo 4 with a friend and going through Black Desert new expansion so not a lot of time for this.
I’m going to need to avoid the thread in case of spoilers.

I also enjoyed FF15, but it's down with FF2 in terms of where I rank it for the series and I never played it a second time. The world is kind of cool and the brotherhood of the four characters worked well. The villain Ardyn is also probably the best FF villain since Kefka. Not even joking. He's almost like a Kefka homage at times while still being his own man. The graphics are extremely good. Really pushes the PS4 the same way FF13 pushed the PS3 and FF12 pushed the PS2.
All of that said, FF15's combat was doo-doo, the world felt unfinished (because it was), the story in the second half was wildly rushed ala Secret of Mana, and the villains were totally un-developed compared to the main one. I have no idea who the Emperor or his generals really were because they all appear out of nowhere and disappear out of nowhere. It's obvious Aranea and Lunafreya were supposed to be playable and was cut. Lunafreya and Noctis' original designs were much better than the release designs. The story made me care at first, then petered out quickly. The combat was literally "hold X" despite being purportedly action-based.
So yeah I liked playing 15 once but it wasn't what I'd consider great. I get a strong feeling from 16 that it's basically "15 except good" and follows a lot of the same story framework / battle style. Has so much in common with 15, just...refined, I guess? Feels like they sat down with clear goals and focus and got this done, as opposed to FF15 which was on and off of a drawing board for years getting revised and re-worked and cut and just generally coasted-through by the devs.
