It's not really an epidemic or anything. SMTIV: Apocalypse was an entirely different game from the original SMTIV. Persona 4: Golden was specifically made for the Vita (so different console from the original). Persona 5 Royal and SMTV: Vengeance are the only real examples of this happening in the last 15 years.
It is THE console to get this generation if you want to play AAA releases. Hell, many of my friends got one in the past couple years just to play Fortnite and then that Marvel game. If you don't want to get a gaming PC, it's really the only option.
Looks super cool. Love the integrated charging dock. My partner plays the PS5 at a desk (uses the keyboard and mouse a lot) and this seems like it'd be perfect for that.
My partner is always on the PS5, so this sounds like the perfect opportunity to play through some games I haven't been able to get to in a while. I just wish you didn't need to have PS+ Premium...
I need one! It's so pretty! Too bad it'll probably be sold out within 5 minutes of being listed and then be impossible to purchase outside of scalped prices on eBay.
All the boost settings in the FF pixel remasters are the only way I got through those games today. I'm glad I got to experience them, even if I had 4x exp and 4x gil on the whole time.
It's a bit different when talking about new releases vs relatively archaic NES games, but I'm still all for options that makes things easier. It increases accessibility, and I want as many people as possible to be able to play through these amazing worlds and stories.
Final Fantasy Tactics has one of the greatest stories in all video games, and definitely across the Final Fantasy franchise. Incredibly grounded, gritty, with religious corruption and political intrigue. There's little out there that can top it. I'm glad a new generation of people can experience this classic.
I've been on a Final Fantasy kick, so I've been playing FFXIV for the first time alongside making my way through the Pixel Remaster games.
FFXIV is pretty good as someone who's never played an MMO before. It really captures a classic Final Fantasy feel more so than any other mainline since IX, while still being something that stands apart from the other titles.
I just got platinum in FF1 (first ever platinum), so working on FF2 now! I didn't like the look of the pixel remasters from screenshots I saw, but if you actually play it (and use the pixel font), it actually has a super appealing aesthetic. Highly recommend.
