    FF7 might be my favorite game of all time.

    It's in my top five, anyway.

    So let's just say I disagree.

    the other thing to mention is that, unlike Capcom, Square saw that it needed to scale back on its developmental arm

    it's primarily a publisher nowadays, like sega (they even published divekick's japanese version!)

    I would question that they have the resources to do a remake of a psone game sans assets, given that they're probably already working on projects we don't know about

    I honestly do not think they are capable of good final fantasy games anymore

    Each one is so far up its own ass now that they are just terrible

    13 was good! 13-2 was good for a given VALUE of good

    That hair

    THAT HAIR

    I really hope they turn self aware about the hair thing at some point in that game.

    Man, new Orcs Must Die. I'm excited about that.

    Okay, please continue.

    Nobody said the robot poster was Persona related

    It was largely speculated to be, considering the resemblance in artstyle.

    Even if it's not, there was still stuff like this:

    So you're mad that people were just as excited as you were for persona news?

    They saw a tv sitting on the show floor. A bunch of people got excited and assumed there would be some actual information.

    Nobody here was intentionally misleading anybody, being bitter about this is kind of weird

    X-2 had great combat, a great implementation of the job system, and a plot that while really dumb, was also fun in a dumb way.

    XIII-2 fixed a lot of the issues XIII had.

    They were good games.

    Not great games.

    But good games.

    I couldn't do 13

    I played like 4 hours of it and all I did was press the shoulder buttons and press forward on the left stick a bunch.

    how was there a game about vincent and this never happened

  • LockedOnTargetLockedOnTarget Registered User regular
    I'm honestly sore that out of all the 7 characters that could have got their own game, we got a Vincent one instead of like, a Tifa character action game.

  • UnbreakableVowUnbreakableVow Registered User regular
    X-2 is better than most mainline FF games

    However I think a sequel to VII would be bad

    Just give me the PS4 port already, hopefully when they say spring they mean March or something

    It almost certainly means March

    Gotta get that first week money to count for fiscal 2014

    They should updae the ps4 ff7

    But only one scene

    Five minutes of high rez Cloud then back to 6 polygon characters

  • UnbreakableVowUnbreakableVow Registered User regular
    And last page someone asked if they ever hinted at a VII remake

    The answer is yes, sort of

    If theyd never made that FFVII tech demo for PS3 nine years ago, we probably wouldn't hear jack about a remake

    I'm honestly sore that out of all the 7 characters that could have got their own game, we got a Vincent one instead of like, a Tifa character action game.

    I'd like to think the hypothetical Tifa action game would take the concepts of Lightning Returns and make them, well, good.

    Like instead of dressing up in dumb looking bullshit it would be a mix of cool looking outfits and visually-appealing yet still appropriate to the character. And the combat would be much faster paced but also more strategic, and the tone would be a mix of action drama but with the ability to have fun with itself.

    I guess I'm saying I want it to be Bayonetta, just dialed down a few notches. A balance where it's not too sexually suggestive, not too sugar-pop lighthearted, and not too crawling in its skin. Kind of like the character herself.

    Yeah, I'd be very much for that.

    Also I know it's probably intentionally hyperbolic, but saying things like "fans need to accept this game was terrible" is incredibly goosey, in my opinion.

    If they release that and Fear Effect 1 and 2 I can get rid of my entire physical PS1 collection

    Severely underrated game.

    Way back when someone called it Square's answer to Zelda.

    You know what? Yes.

    I feel confident saying Brave Fencer Musashi is my favorite game of all time.

    It certainly isn't the best game but damn it if I don't fucking love it.

  • UnbreakableVowUnbreakableVow Registered User regular
    The sequel was so bad though

    Ugh

    The sequel is actually worth negative dollars, a few years back when I was looking for Brave Fencer Musashi on eBay, a lot of the prices were around $50 or $60, but there was one listing that had it, unopened, for $30, but also came with the PS2 sequel

    They have said that PS4/One versions of 1.5 and 2.5 are not out of the question as they get closer to the release of KH3

    Specifically for Xbox fans since there's a good chance they've never played any of them

    It's really good and would have easily been acceptible to call it KH3.

    It also has
    one of the biggest bummers of an ending I've ever seen

    I don't think ff7 is terrible, let's be clear

    but it's also okay to look at your favorite games with a critical eye

    Destiny is gonna be in my top 10 this year, same with Hyrule Warriors

    hyperbolic, stemming from my aching desire for a skies of arcadia 2
