Well I didn't really like Skyrim or Fallout (3-NV). The settings seemed interesting, but I was turned away by the lack of a deeper narrative and forgettable characters. Bethesda rpgs feel really shallow to me, and the few interesting places to explore are hidden amongst a heap of copypasted...

Well it's mostly my own RPG standards I weight my worries against. Like I said, I just don't see a few extra small towns that have nothing to do with the plot jutifying a trilogy and 180+ dollar pricing you know? I mean, will Sephiroth, the main villain, even have an appearence in the first...

I guess I could list some RPGs I hold in higher regard and what I like about them. The souls series. -Great foreboding atmosphere -Dark fantasy setting -Interesting locations -Sense of mystery -Unique bosses and monsters -Satisfying combat and great level design -Not much in the way of...

So, I'm interested in finding a good rpg, but the stuff available is, to be honest, pretty terrible. At least on the console front the rpg selection for the last 2 generations (PS3-PS4) has been abysmal, with uninteresting characters, boring generic worlds and uncompelling stories. The only good...

Well, we STILL don't have an answer to what that extra content is going to be. Because I don't see how they can add 60+ percent more story to FFVII to justify a trilogy(it's obviously gonna be one). Unless that new content is just some pontless fetch quests to pad a 50 hour story to 3...

Well, as long as 15+ hour fights aren't the only side content in the game, than whatever floats your boat I say. I'm not a fan of super bosses myself. I'd prefer a shorter fight that tests how well I have mastered the game, and ones that requires me to use all techniques and mechanics available...

Based on a recent post by the company, SE is looking at the FFXIII-trilogy as a model on how to handle the remake. Ungh... Why does every new announcement about this project make me more worried?

Ah, I figured it out. Turns out my "SMART TV" wasn't being very smart (once again). There was a setting for automatic volume adjustion when changing channels, and for some reason this was messing with the audio on my PS1 games. Really weird. But I haven't had any more issues since I turned it...

So this isn't a major issue, but it is a really annoying one. When I'm playing downloaded PS1 titles on my PS3, the volume keeps changing itself; when there hasn't been background music for a few seconds the volume get's really low for some reason, and then slowly increases when things start...

This is exactly why I prefer suspension of disbelief over realism. The real world does have plenty of beautiful and facinating locations with so called "wonders of nature". Too bad no one ever uses them for reference. I also despise the notion some people have that a setting HAS to be realistic...

So This is a bit of a dilemma I run into from time to time, but many games that have a focus on exploration seem to lack locations that are actually interesting. I mean in games like skyrim and fallout, all I found were caves, empty shacks and more bloody caves. No open world game I've played...

Yeah. I find that most people seem to automatically jump to the conclusion that I mean survival horror when I mention a horror themed game. The emphasis here is specifically on the word THEME, as in the tropes and narratives associated with horror stories but in a different genre. Final Fantasy...

The people actually making the game, the development team that is, propably have that sentiment. And since they do all the hard work, it's their right to be paid for it. But the higher ups who only sit on their asses all day while other people make them money, so they can have that third car...

Don't really get the hate for Fran's voice. But I think we can all agree that Gabranth's voice was amazing, S+ performance right there.

I think Vaan might have originally had a bigger role, but for some reason was cut. Quite a few scenes seem to imply Vaan was the Ocurian's secondary candidate to become a new dynast king. He stars of hating the empire just as much as Ashe, and is the only other party member who can see the...

Well yeah. I guess the biggest issue is the utter lack of information regarding this project. And a lot of people are propably preparing for the worst case scenario because they don't want to be disappointed any further. It's better to expect the worst and not be disappointed than to hope and be...

Mood: lonely, but otherwise ok This is pretty common for me. I don't have any friends and I'm pretty bad at approaching others. The games I play aren't really good for socialising either soo, yeah.

I would actually like a mature FF title myself. Maybe a genuine dark fantasy, not those wannabe low fantasies like DA or Witcher, but rather like the From Software Souls series. Not in terms of gameplay mind you, but thematically similar. A world where below the surface dwells an encroaching...

Well the problem in my opinion is that SE hasn't done anything since the previous console generation started to earn my trust in them. Let me clarify: I have faith in the development team behind the remake and their skills, but I have no faith in Square's bosses. Corporate higher ups are greedy...

Lots of familiar feels in this post. I was very excited and impressed by the 2013 trailer. It was action packed and really looked like a great title. A more grounded version of Kingdom Hearts' battle style combined with warp exploration and Eidolon fights resembeling Shadow Of The Colossus...
