    There's a port of Final Fantasy 9 for the Switch if that's something that would be more convenient for you.
  2. What game are you currently playing?

    Cleared a run of Final Fantasy 5 last night that was a personal best. 14 hours, 38 minutes. Level 28. Fastest I've ever cleared the game. I've possibly done lower level runs, but only with at least one tanky character to be an anchor when those total party kill attacks hit us. This party was...

    Day 1 DLC is not great, but I'm not immediately seeing how packaging it in a Season's Pass is any scummier than it already was. That being said, I've never played a game with a season's pass, and am only going by the article's description of how they work.

    I've heard about a few games that have experimented with that. Forget some details, but I read about some remake of an old adventure game with one of those Text Loaders. You know "Pickup Ye Flask" type stuff. The developers thought it would be a good idea to hook it up with generative AI, so it...

    I'm playing Bravely Default 2 right now. Early impression is I like it more than Bravely Default 1. Bravely Default 1 was cool in a lot of ways, and the gameplay in particular was top notch, but it kind of lost me with the sex humour. It was a lot of old anime style slapstick "Ooh, funny, the...

    I mean, if it's the Nikke game developer I don't know what anybody was expecting. They have a pretty particular shtick. People play their games for pretty specific reason.

    Does anyone even like Starfield? I've heard only bad things about it. Even from diehard Bethesda fans who like a lot of their poorly reviewed work.

    I'd heard that the multiple endings are literally After three games of playing up player agency through the story decisions they just did not stick the landing when it came time to wrap it up. The way it's described, it must've been a budget or deadline issue or something. I have to imagine...

    Normally, I'm anti autobattling in all its forms. If the battle system was fun you wouldn't want to automate it. After this last run I've kind of come around on the Pixel Remaster autobattling though. It works because it's so stupid, if that makes sense. The autobattling doesn't make any...

    Finished that Final Fantasy 5 run. I was getting pretty fed up towards the end and rushed through a lot of that final chapter. New team seems more fun to play with. Got Knight/Chemist/Ranger/Samurai this time. Very Martial heavy crew, but with the chemist there to provide just about every magic...

    In Granblue Fantasy, there's this period event named Unite and Fight, but everybody just calls it Guild Wars. In it you're matched against another guild. You each kill a bunch of monsters, with bigger and powerful ones being worth more points, and whoever has the most points at the end of the...

    My brother got me Tears of the Kingdom for Christmas. Zelda used to be a huge obsession of mine, but I haven't played a new Zelda game in a very long time. Life kind of got away from me after highschool. I am having a blast. I'd heard all sorts of things about the turns the Zelda franchise had...

    Been playing some more Final Fantasy 5. I'm pretty much always playing it on and off these days. It's become a persistent standby. Playing with a white mage, a berserker, a ranger, and a dragoon this time, and honestly I think this party is garbage. It'll get the job done. They all do. But my...

    Nah, it handles like a dream! Watch as I try to make a simple turn, only to end up in the wrong area code when it interacts with some imperceptible groove in the road geometry in a manner dreamed up by the deeply unhinged. Nah, but seriously, I can totally see the complaints, and it's probably...

    I've only played Mass Effect 1, but I fucking love the Mako. You are immortal in that thing. I frequently find myself scheming to figure out how to bring it to some hard to reach location so I don't have to get out of my vehicle to murderize these goons.

    I mean, yes, space is mostly empty, but it's not like all those other videogame journeys take place in a setting without uninteresting locales. It just skips over that shit. If you get on a train, you're either gonna get deeply entrenched in a murder mystery or the game's gonna skip forward...

  18. Playing Persona 5 for the first time

    I think a slight grievance I have is that I'm 3 hours into the game and I haven't really been given free reins yet. I've done I think 3 fights so far. Barely been given an opportunity to become acquainted with the battle system. I keep just kind of being shunted off from cutscene to cutscene...
  19. Playing Persona 5 for the first time

    Decided to make this thread to talk about my thoughts as I play through Persona 5. This is my first time so I won't be able to make this a proper tour of the game, but I'm pretty excited and I think there'll be a lot to talk about, so I think it's worth a shot. Gonna start by copying my...

    Bought Persona 5 for Switch. I'm an hour and a half into it and having a super good time. Haven't jived with a game like this since maybe highschool. The story isn't afraid to get theatrical in flamboyant ways. I feel like a lot of modern games are all muted colours and stoic leads and stuff...
