GamerFitNation's Zachary Cowan writes about whether or not strategy guides help.
"Walkthrough guides for video games have always been coming out. Guides were originally in magazines that you could subscribe to. The one magazine that I am thinking of is Nintendo Power. In any Nintendo Power, there weren’t just guides; they also had reviews of games. But as time has passed, guides have become more focused; you can now buy a specific guide for almost any game that comes out. Are all these guides helpful though?"
Bioware writes: "Like you, we’ve heard the rumors lately. You’ve made it clear you care deeply about what’s next. So let’s start by setting the record straight: the next Mass Effect game is in development, and EA and BioWare remain committed to telling more stories in this universe."
I expected nothing and I'm still disappointed
Like with Fallout, it's starting to feel studios are using TV / Film adaptations when they have no game info to talk about.
I feel the same way.
I mean, how difficult would it be for them to release SOMETHING of substance? Another short trailer? A couple of proper hints? A short story set during the original trilogy, but focused on fringe characters?
Hopefully they're working so hard on the game that they don't have time. But still, with every passing year and so little to show, the franchise will be slipping further and further from people's minds.
Yeah agree it's almost a cop out since Dev times are 5 to 10 years just throw out a few seasons instead you get them done in a year
So the TV show will take place after the OG trilogy. I wonder which ending they’ll use?
Should’ve just posted a picture of an Elcor saying “regretfully, we have nothing to share.”
Square Enix has announced multiple classic Final Fantasy titles will receive physical releases this December;including Final Fantasy VII, VIII and IX.
7,8,9 only Switch
7 remake & rebirth only PS5?
Is this accurate? Wish it was all for both.
Why can’t they just do a cool classic collection with VII, VIII and IX in with some goodies similar to what they did with the Pixel Remaster.
I would honestly go for a Remaster Collection, just AI upscale some textures (there are really good fan mods for that), widescreen everything where possible, higher native resolution, etc...
It seems like a no-brainer to make such a large portion of what was FF's golden age into a collection of it's own.
Weird that 7 and 8 are together for 40 and 9 is 40 on it's own.
8 should be the one on it's own as it actually has redone models.
I have ff8 ps4 remastered physical euro version. They should have put these on PS5 physically so lame.
I'm actually so tired of hearing about FFIX. Just replayed it with Moguri Mod earlier this month. That might as well be the definitive version.
While a lot (like way too many) games launch in sorry states these days, a lot of them do eventually get polished up over time fixes. The same can’t be said for these properly broken games.
Worst for me is wipeout 2048.
I got gold in every single player race, made it extremely far into the great online shop platinum was a finger away.. then lost all my online progression. Many players experienced the same and hadn’t been fixed since
Cyberpunk and No Mans Sky are obviously the 2
best comeback stories. Cyberpunk is literally one of the best RPGs ever made now.
junctioning is only broken now because it's been datamined which monster which gives which card and which card gives which items and every single spell to junction with the highest points for each stat. For it's time when that info wasn't readily available it was good, not without it's flaws, but not broken,
Exactly. I never got this because what made it broken was the knowledge of what to exploit.
Playing the game for the first time back then you never had any knowledge to make it so easy.
One minute the Junction system is complicated, the next it's super easy / broken. What is it?
i mean, ff8 is not "broken" per se, its just that the junction system is too good and easily exploited even an hour into the game. haha
Star Wars Jedi Survivor is one of them. I can’t get in the Cantina bar later on in the game. The door and other doors throughout the environment is locked off. It is a shame, because I wanted to complete the game, but I can’t until they fix it.
I don't bother with guides/fags since like to figure out things on my own
Is there honestly a discussion to be had on whether or not strategy guides assist the player? They obviously do.
If anyone had the Final Fantasy 9 guide. They would say no.
Not gonna lie...I did buy a few back in the day. This was before I "discovered" the internet. Growing up in a small town in Arkansas the internet was slow to catch on and when we finally did get it we were stuck with a 14.4kbps for the longest time. I remember the joy of getting a 56kbps modem and service! Anyway, the ones I remember buying were Diablo II, Phantasy Star Online, and Final Fantasy VII.
Maybe they were I don't know about now that there's the internet.
