haveblue posted:Yeah, this is where I am too, I'm not sure when I'm allowed to start blocking/dodging and how the game communicates when that would be a good idea. I can see the enemies calling out their attacks but they always seem to do it when Cloud is already locked into a combo. Some are, some are basic fetch quests, ect. Still, its worth it to do all of them. Some have some neat story beats, but all will give you items and XP.

I'm hoping to finish Ys VIII this weekend. Awhile ago my local save got corrupted and I had to revert to my cloud backup, which caused me to lose a few hours progress. I put it down after that happened, but so glad I decided to get back into it.

Welp, after flirting with the idea of trying to get a PS5, I’ve decided to just buy a PS4. One big factor in the decision was the fact that I can actually buy a PS4 without having to track restocks hoping to get lucky enough to buy one, and another was the fact that PS5s are huge and ugly and I don’t want one my home. I figure if I like the PS4 I can always buy a PS5 when they inevitably release a non-huge version in a few years. I haven’t played a PlayStation since the original one. I’m excited!

I lucked into a PS5 after not having a PS4 and the number of absolutely amazing PS4 games to play is just wild. It's basically exclusively a "catch up on last gen" machine at this point.

I think my PS4 controller might be dying. I'm having a hard time getting it to charge. I'm in the US, any suggestions on places to try and get another one cheap? The last three pages were about how the PS4 has barely gone down in price at all so I'll believe everyone if you say there isn't really anywhere selling them cheaper than usual.

Are you charging it from the PS4 itself? I can 100% of the time get it to charge from the console USB ports and then like 5% of the time from anything else.

Yeah, I've always used the PS4 to charge it. It's weird, it has to be sitting in some particular position to get it to charge at all for like a week now. I thought it was just the cord was bad so I swapped it for another one and it's still having the same problem.

Debating the true protagonist of FF12 is difficult when the first step is remembering anything about FF12.

The Brady Guide for ffIX is so famously bad with "look on this website for the answers!" While the one for ffVIII was almost nessecary to navigate the draw system. It made min maxing your party to opness super easy.

I had to restart FF8 because I only used three characters all game and it took away one at the start of disc 4 and I couldn't do it the boss with two normally levelled characters and one at like... level 5

FF8 is why I always ask now "Will this JRPG force people in/out of your party and do people level out of party" I'm glad that, for all the problems Yakuza LAD has with its rpg combat, it doesn't do this too badly

On one hand endless remakes are bad and the shareholders in charge of game development are strangling all the creativity out of things now But on the other hand, I want a FF8 remake that highlights the good parts of it and is very Jojo's Bizarre Adventure in your face about what everyone's deal is abandons subtext and spends a lot of time highlighting that Selphie wanted to shoot a train with a rocket launcher just so people get what the game's going for. Also it's the only JRPG I know of that has dinosaurs in it aside from Chrono Trigger and that deserves more praise.

It's very rare nowadays that games don't give members not in your party at least some exp so it's less of a deal. Though Yakuza 7 does have an extended sequence where one of your party members leave it's not really a big deal in that
