One game that needs its dragon back is Final fantasy. I hope the next game goes back to the classic style. I don't usually advocate game to go back to its older self but final fantasy should revitalize itself.

Final Fantasy VI-Medieval and steampunk mix
Final Fantasy VII-Futuristic
Final Fantasy VIII-Futuristic
Final Fantasy IX-Medieval
Final Fantasy X-Futuristic
Final Fantasy XI- Medieval
Final Fantasy XII- Medieval
Final Fantasy XIII-Futuristic
Final Fantasy XIV-Medieval
Final Fantasy XV-Futuristic

The next mainline Final fantasy needs to be Medieval or mix with another like Steampunk.

I don't think a game "needs" anything other than being a great game.

I disagree. FF found its identity with the whole steampunk look around FF6/7. DragonQuest already has the medieval theme down pat, and does it better than FF could ever hope to.

Segata2709d ago

There is hundreds that don't have Dragons or castles. Play RPGs without magic as well and just mechs. Far more than 7.

It's a list of their TOP 7 games that do it. Obviously they aren't insinuating only 7 rpgs in existence don't have dragons.

Still doesn’t appear to exist at all on the UK store even when accessing directly from Switch 2.

Just bought it, in order to see whether you can upgrade in-game but nothing at all.

Is this being anti consumer? Come on let's hear it.

Not really sure. Apparently it is still download-able on the vita so im not sure what this actually means. Its only applicable to PS+ Essential version of it too so I bought it and i dont know if this applies to me at all.

I just checked and the version i own says im still entitled to both versions so I guess its just the PS+ version that is PS4 only now. If you bought it you still get both versions.

"However, Sony now seems to be revoking that digital ownership and reclassifying the game as subscription-only access. In other words, the license is now tied strictly to an active PS Plus membership rather than being treated as a permanent digital purchase."

So it now works exactly as it is supposed to work. All monthly games redeemed from PS Plus Essential are subscription-only access.

I've not been able to download it on my vita for over a year now, perfectly fine on my PS4 and PS5
