@Deoxyr1bose Dude right? Everyone seems to be in love with the Octopath look but from the start I thought it looked hideous. I liked what they were generally going for but the end result always looked muddy and washed out and just plain ugly. This style is FAR superior. Just one guys thoughts.
@Niktaw I remember being so hyped for X and really liking it when it first came out but I actually can't stand that game now. Honestly, I really like the story and it has some good moments but ultimately, the protagonist is what makes or breaks a game for me and I think Tidus is one of the worst, most unlikable protags of RPG history. (I did really enjoy XII too.)
@Shepherd_Tallon For sure. IX has always been my favorite of all time. Its a fantastic game but the time in my life when I experienced it gave it a nostalgic power thats off the charts. Haha
One of the main reasons I invested in a PS5. FF was what got me into gaming with FF2 on the Super Nintendo. I've disliked them all after 9 (12 was ok though) so I'm praying this one delivers. Can't wait for a new look and release date!
@Serge_G Totally see where you're coming from but in my case, I actually won't touch Elden with a 10 foot pole. I despise games whose point is just to be insanely difficult. Always hated all the Souls games for that reason. I dont find inherently 'hard' games enjoyable at all. On the other hand, I'm LOVING Horizon. While its doing nothing new with open world mechanics, the story is fantastic which will trump all other aspects for me almost everytime. Its why I liked Zero Dawn way more than Breath of the Wild (and I'm a Nintendo fanboy). Story is everything.
Because this half effort will sell poorly, SE will assume that Chrono games don't sell well and will shelf Chrono Trigger yet again for another decade.
As a Playstation casual, I'm super pissed that I'll need to pay a ludicrous amount of money for the top tier just to get PS1 and 2 games. I will literally never play online or touch any of the 400+ free games. I expected no less but still upset. Praying now there is some kind of family plan like NSO has so I can split the cost...
I'll pass. Was hoping it wouldn't have that trademark insane difficulty. Thats a turn off for me personally that trumps all other good things about it.
@TooBarFoo That's amazing that you use NMS to escape your wheelchair! So glad you've invested in a powerhouse PC so you can treat yourself to experiences like that.
Yeah, even with very low quality and with the frankly trash Move controllers, playing NMS in VR is an experience I'll never forget. There are a handful of moments in my 30-year gaming career that were standout moments of magic. Things that redefined the way I see games and what they can do. Taking off into the vastness of space in my rickety ship in NMS VR was one of those moments.
I can't believe how good this game looks in the screenshots. I've only ever played it in PSVR where it literally looks like a PS2 game. Haha. Its still incredible though. The amount of updates is nothing short of mind boggling. Every time I see an update I feel like I have to start over. Maybe I'll wait until I have the PS5 and VR2. Lol

Re: Talking Point: Does Sony Need a Big Summer Showcase?
I just NEED more news on FF16 and PSVR2. Not to mention the legacy games coming to the new program.
Re: Sony Is Predicting Improved PS5 Stock Availability
@naruball This. Hoping FF16 will be one of those games as it is confirmed to be a PS5 exclusive (+PC).

Re: Hands On: Sifu's New Difficulty Settings are a Superb Addition
The high difficulty was one of the primary reasons I skipped this one. Maybe ill pick it up now.

Re: Rejoice! Final Fantasy 16 in 'Final Stretch' of Development, Says Producer
@Shepherd_Tallon Me too! Most promising looking one since 9! Even though it was clearly an early build, trailer 1 was awesome!

Re: PS Store Sales Charts: Gran Turismo 7 Laps Elden Ring in Europe as Horizon Falls Off a Cliff
I have zero interest in any of the games mentioned except Horizon. Currently at 60 hours and absolutely loving it.

MEGAMAN LEGENDS and LEGEND OF DRAGOON!!! PLEASE!!!
Re: Horizon Forbidden West Patch 1.09 Is Out Now, Here Are the Patch Notes
Finally upgraded to PS5 yesterday from an OG PS4. Ready to keep playing it in its full glory! 60fps is incredible!
Re: PS Plus Premium's Classic Games Look 'Great' on PS5, PS4, But Sony's Saying Nothing About the Selection
My decision entirely rests on what kind of lineup the classics have.
Re: Poll: Will You Subscribe to Sony's New PS Plus Tiers?
Legacy content locked behind a massive pay wall is a real kick to the gonads.

Re: This Week Could Be Big for PlayStation, Say Swirling Rumours
My humble hope is that Spartacus will enable me to play PS1 games. Specifically Legend of Dragoon and Megaman Legends. That's it.

Re: PS Store Sales Charts: Horizon Forbidden West Plays Second Fiddle to Elden Ring
Personally, I couldn't care less for Elden. Really loving Horizon!
Re: State of Play Confirmed, Showcasing Third Party PS5, PS4 Games

Re: Resident Evil 2, 3, and 7 Coming to PS5 with Visual Enhancements, Free Upgrade Confirmed

Re: Horizon Forbidden West Drives Strong PS5, PS4 Digital Sales
Wish I could get a PS5 so badly! But Horizon 2 on my OG PS4 is still great.
Re: Elden Ring (PS5) - Likely Another FromSoftware Great

Great to know as I'm still on a PS4 launch unit. Lol. Dont you have to pay the extra $20 for the 5 upgrade though??

Dang...that means the VR2 is still a long ways out.
Re: Sony Taking PSVR2 Pre-Order Sign-Ups Through Official Website
One of the main reasons I want a PS5. But obviously there's no point in caring about this until I get one which may be years from now at this rate...
