Re: Rumour: A New Persona 5 Game Announcement Is Imminent

@arsmolinarc
1.IMO persona 6 shouldn't ever have an adult oriented cast,because that's not the point of the series. Plus it would take away what makes the series special.

2. No way are you trying to make the players/MC look like the bad and immoral people,when this grown ass women in game, decided to be in a relationship with an underage person.

Re: Random: Miles Morales Foils Quantum Bodega Robbery in Across the Spider-Verse Clip

Can't wait for this movie,the first one was my favorite spiderman and superhero movie ever made( well, until DC finally decides to make a Kingdom Come animation adaption,with visuals that pays respects to the comics).

I am hyped for Spiderpunk and Spiderman 2099. I hope Silk makes a cameo,she is by far the coolest spiderwoman from the comics( and most attractive).

Anyway, I didn't like how Miles was goofing around with microwaving food(i know he probably payed for it off screen or will pay for it after the fight),before helping the shopkeeper, because it's leaving the shopkeeper in unneeded danger.

It reminds me of how Andrew Garfield Spiderman was goofing around with Rhino instead of taking him down immediately,which lead to unneeded collateral damage on the streets.

Spiderman not taking his villains seriously for comedic effect is fine,but if only it doesn’t put innocent people at risk. Tom Holland spiderman vs the robbers dressed as avengers, is a good example of how to do this.

Re: Insomniac 'Working Hard' to Make Spider-Man 2 Its Best Game Ever

@swagbag7Off the top of my head.

Spiderman ps4 had a worse storyline (man, how I hated MJ and Peter character and relationship in the game).

It had those boring forced Mj and Miles gameplay section, which are inferior to the catwoman sections in AC.

Since it basically uses Batman AC as a template for the game, it loses points because it doesn't really improve on it or offer something completely new with that format.

Re: Poll: How Was Final Fantasy 16's State of Play Showcase?

rachetmarvel

Here are my two cents

Pro:
1.I love the music,environment and overall atmosphere of the game, it is definitely true ti final fantasy in that regard
2. The story seems to be much more interesting this time around. And the dev seems to be interested in giving us a well thought out story, instead of what we got in FF13 and FF15.

I am also a fan of the age progression thing they will do, but I would be lying if I didn't think that they should have kept it as a suprise for us when we play the game.

Cons:
1. The character design is still to subdued for a final fantasy game,imo. People who hate anime might like that, but it makes the characters lose their final fantasy charm, and when it comes to Clive, look boring AF imo.

Noxtus crew looks cooler than Clives crew.

2. The character models look somehow less impressive than Final fantasy 7 remake. Check Clive and Jill's reunion, their facial expressions doesn't match their emotions.

3. Not being able to control other party member. If FF15 could allow us to do this(albeit later via an update), then I see no reason why we can't do it in FF16.

Maybe they fear having gameplay systems for party members would be detriment to the story, since we will be playing Clive at his various ages?

What I am unsure of:

1. Hack and slash DMC combat. I don't dislike that combat, but for an rpg I do prefer turn based, because hack and slash does get tiring when playing 100+ hours rpg. So we will see how enjoyable the DMC gameplay is.

2. The enemies do look spongy, which isn't good, but the boss battle looks cool and epic.

3. I do like that it isn't full on open world, but does anybody else feel that it looks kinda dry at times?

Anyway, all I know is that this game is going to be a success.
From its marketing, to it being hailed the final fantasy game that everyone has been excited for since slice bread, to it revamping its gamplay to match that of a popular franchise like DMC , to people praising it looking more western and less anime(the anime hate is still real,lol), and finally it being a Final Fantasy game in general,will help it break alot of sale records.

Will the story be great?Will Clive become an iconic MC despite his subdued look? Will the DMC gameplay satisfy even the most loyal turn based fan? Will it be the game to finally meet expectations for SQ sales fantasy?
Well ,we will find out in June.

Re: Oh No, 'Exciting' Persona News Has Been Teased Again

@McBurn A man of Culture I see.

But seriously, Trails gameplay is great.

It's has great depth, but it isn't to complicated that you would get lost. It's fun, and it takes far longer for me to get burned out from a single gaming session with Trails, then I do when compared to other turn-based jrpg's.

I also think the story is much more interesting than most persona games, given that each Trails game is like part of an arch, that all comes together for an overarching plot.

The only thing that Persona has over Trails, especially Persona 5,is better visuals and overall polish of the game, imo.

Re: SEGA's Demon Slayer Tie-In Tops Three Million Units Sold

rachetmarvel

@Nepp67 I to prefer that.

Even so, there are disadvantage of an Arcsys Bleach fighter.

1. Since it's an Arcys game, you have like a max of 15 to 20 characters at launch ,which isn't big enough for Bleach imo.

There will be alot of fan favorite characters left out of the game, even when all the dlcs are done.

This very worrisome for Bleach, because of its large cast of characters.

2. Modern day Arcsys are on a mission to simplify their fighting games, which includes giving characters fewer special moves as possible( 3-4 special moves), thus alot of the characters moves from the anime/manga won't be able to transfer to the fighting game faithfully.

The only way to lessing the problem of this, is to make the Bleach fighter a Tag fighter like dragonball fighter Z.

3. The single player content won't be good.
I have zero faith in Arcsys to create a story mode, with faithfully written storyline for Bleach, which also has a balance of gameplay.

I also have no faith in them going the extra mile to include other fun single player modes beyond, Arcade and a time trial.

CC2 fixes many of this issues by making games with alot of the characters avaliable, and incorporating them with a movelist that is very faithfully to the source material, without caring about balance or bloat.

They also create a more fun and interactive single player mode than Arcsys does.

The obvious disadvantage of a CC2 game, is that the visuals won't look as good as Arcsys, and that it will most likely play as an arena fighter, which although fun to play with friends, isn't well balanced or competitively viable.

Re: Persona Producer Raises Eyebrows with Comments on AI Art

rachetmarvel

@GymratAmarillo Uhm no, it's just a picture. It's all Geometry and colors. Things that A.I is very good at reproducing.

People love persona for its aesthetics, not its art. A.I will reproduce that anime persona aesthetics flawlessly, and people wouldn't be able to tell the difference.

Re: Respawn Opens Third Studio to Keep Apex Legends Running for Another '10 to 15 Years'

rachetmarvel

@Ken_Kaniff Eh,if you are into a fighting game, then you can definitly play it for that long.

People still play games like Guilty Gear ac+r, Blazblue Central Fiction,Skull girls, Marvel vs Capcom 2 and 3, Street fighter 3rd strike and 4, and the various KOF games to this day.

For me, you can still catch me playing Guilty Gear ac+r and Blazblue Central Fiction even in 10 years time.

Re: Granblue Fantasy Versus Sequel Adds New Story, Characters, Moves, Rollback Netcode, Crossplay in 2023

rachetmarvel

@nomither6 You're the only one that thinks this. Central Fiction is literally just a better Chronophatsma extend.

With more characters,more gamplay mechanics added, better battle UI,better character select screen,and a better balanced game.

The only thing that CPEX has over CF is an English dub, and that additional single player content that didn't carry over to CF.

Also your point about CF not playing like other Blazblue games before is a lie. This makes me wonder if you have actually played Blazblue before.
