i have been running a little script to notify me when the evga 3080 website changes and it pinged today, so i quickly went there and was able to put the card in my cart. then evga apparently posted on twitter that they had some cards for sale, the site immediately exploded, and when it came back up 10 minutes later i was told that the card had been removed from my cart because it was out of stock.

gg to all involved. really incredible planning and foresight

the game opens with you slowly pushing it and it takes 1.5 hours of play before you can drive it

the game is also mostly bants between the lads, all other characterization is nonexistent and the story/dialogue is absolutely awful

the only reason to play it is if you really like the main 4 dudes and/or the combat system which... did not grab me at all

You can fight a superboss very early on in the game and if you have a lot of potions it takes ~5 hours to kill it.

I really hate the decision to move away from turn based combat in the newer FF games. It felt like they were going in the right direction with what they did in XII but then completely scrapped that.

Same, I was wondering what happened with the game and apparently a lot of it was due the board of directors involving themselves more with the process. In XII, years into production they told the team that an older main character wasn't marketable and they had to redo the entire story. It got so bad that the creator of the series, and a bunch of people who had been core to the series left.
