Not a shock, but this company was poorly run.

Eh, it's not a positive sign, but its not a death knell either. Bungie's Chicago based, the Bellevue branch only started when MS bought them. And if you're not familiar with Bellevue, in a two block radius, off the top of my head, there's Valve, Pokemon, Sucker Punch, Tencent, and a dozen MS & Amazon buildings. The property will sell, and I'm sure they can use the cash.

As a reminder. Demo for this came out

Played it for a couple hours, seems cool. The UI and map designs are straight up octopath traveler. The job system seems interesting, like a combination of materia leveling and jobs.

Wait until Gabe dies and Steam turns into video game Netflix, where you're no longer able to "own" your library and now have to pay a monthly service fee for "access" to games that month.

I figured this would be a mail in game devoid of story.

I’m guessing the story will end up being weird since there’s characters from all the other final fantasies. In the first chapter they don’t talk about the other characters though, it just becomes a power that you use. If the gameplays solid a weak story wouldn’t bother me much. I’d say try the demo, I had fun with it and will probably get it if the steam reviews aren’t pointing out things later that would bug me.

Sitting up drinking some whiskey and listening to geopolitical commentary, and somehow this popped up out of nowhere.

Thought this was maybe the best place. Just kind of blew my mind, and made me go get another glass of whiskey. I mean I vaguely remember somebody having made this song on the forums but the fact that it just popped up out of nowhere on my YouTube deal was pretty crazy.

That's why I'm going to repost it because we have to remember our legacy.

iirc the main story of FF15 doesn't actually include any of the various game-hopping characters, just the ones that are original to the game. It's really fucking weird to imagine FFBE being converted into a normal rpg.

I never touched 15 because it was described to me as the Backstreet Boys save the kingdom in a Ford Thunderbird.

15 is legitimately one of the worst games I've ever played. I beat it pre-dlc and there were spots main characters straight up disappeared and I knew it was dlc spots. Such a shit show.

16 was equally awful and I'm pissed that the demo sold me on that game. Only reason I bought it was I thought the premise was cool.

Jesus Christ I'm retarded. Not only does the joke not work now that there's an actual FF15 and 16 but I also fucked the joke up. Anyway we used to jokingly call FFBE FF16 when it was still around because brave eXVIus.

Anyway I wonder if Katy Perry and Ariana Grande will also be in Resonance or if they'll have to be modded in.
