If you can put out sonic 2006 and somehow still have a franchise that I think is worth celebrating.

It's fine, the game deletes its own plot anyways

Is this the correct way? I've always read "Sith" the same as the "Sith" in Star Wars. I figured it was a reference since SE loves its Star Wars references.

It's a reference to a creature from Celtic mythology which is pronounced that way iirc

A dev was quoted as saying Loveless was a reference. Sister Ray is such a weird name and such an iconic song I dunno how it isn't. The musician Dio is literally the only person I've ever heard of with that name. Gainsborough would be a stretch if not for all the other ones. And "Lucretia My Reflection" is an extremely well known goth song

:shrug:

They're joking, Jojo characters are frequently named after real-life musicians/bands (and of those, only Dio is a Jojo character, named after the musician). Hell, there's a guy early on named Robert E. O. Speedwagon :v:

Yea this isn't true at all. The full games are on the disk, but they need to install to the HDD. This is necessary since blu ray disks have huge capacities, the drive read speed is quite slow.

Also because blu ray disks have huge capacities, game devs have just put full uncompressed video/audio onto there because hey who cares about hard drive space

Bad news about the PT fight in XIV, then. Story goes that the devs had little idea that the meme was so popular. The fight is still really interesting though.

Iirc suplexing the train isn't as much of a meme within Japan

Hell yeah, also I think it was in other screenshots as well, but in this one you can see that Cloud has what looks like an All materia paired with probably the Fire materia, so the materia linking is in too!

XIII got two sequels because that was during the time when the majority of the company was focused on fixing FFXIV 1.0 and turning it into ARR, afaik XIII-2 and LR were the only console releases then (and were mostly reusing assets from XIII), everything else SE made was on 3DS/Vita and was made by smaller teams.

While watching other people play the game I only just learned that after each of the story Corneo's Colosseum matches the losers are in the other room and you can talk to them for some extra dialogue.

Pro Wrestling sections in games--like this and the Glitzville chapter of Thousand Year Door, are always so, so good for stuff like this. The two announcers in FFVIIR were fantastic, especially during the Hell House fight

I'm in the middle of the boss gauntlet in chapter 17 and I haven't really figured out blocking yet. I'm just rolling like it's bloodborne.

I've been fine so far but I don't think hard mode will go well for me.

Blocking is mostly for ranged attacks since they can't be dodged, some melee attacks you can dodge with the right timing but you don't have iframes so you have to actually dodge the attack not just be in a dodge roll

Kingdom Hearts III was just disappointing really, enough for me to say that I'm done with the series.

Dropping plot points was a constant issue - I didn't get why they just forgot about the saving the worlds they were visiting by sealing off the keyholes (besides 1?) then having all of the plot in the final world.

Overall it just seemed like an incohesive mess that actually made me worry at how FFVII-R would turn out - but I was actually pleasantly surprised on that front. It made me believe Square-Enix could make good FF games again after I mentally checked out after the stumbling of XII, XIII and XIII-2.

Part of it was that Disney started getting very rules-y with what they were and weren't allowed to do in the Disney worlds, especially noticeable with how Frozen's world doesn't let you interact with the plot at all, while Toy Story and Monster's Inc (Pixar) kinda just let them invent entirely new stories and were much much better for it.

I liked Hell House much more on replays where I knew what to expect. If you go in with a bad loadout it's possible to make that battle extremely not fun to win

If you go in with a bad loadout (to any fight) you can restart to right before the fight from the pause menu, I'm pretty sure

it’s the odd cognitive dissonance of on the one hand feeling like you should be the target audience for this, having played the original as a teen in 1997, and the writing making it apparent that, no, it’s the teens of today that’s the real target audience

the gameplay is fun at least, and Barret is true to character in a big way

You not liking the writing doesn't mean it wasn't written for people who played the original, don't be weird about it

This mod lets you change the hair and eye color for the Cloud, Tifa, and Aeris, and it evokes strange, bad feelings in me to look at the example pictures. They don't even look bad, it's just deeply unnatural feeling, like your dad walking into your room, but suddenly he has someone else's face.

https://www.nexusmods.com/finalfantasy7remake/mods/104?tab=images

giving cloud lightning's hair color and aerith terra's green hair is pretty funny though

also this mod

that, as far as I can tell, replaces every single one of Aerith's weapon models with that one folding chair
