Noctis didn't seem very stuck up to me, unless you count the opening CG scene. The rest of the game he was basically the same, they just joked on him being kingly/princely.

Anyway I tried playing the New Game + and there's some kind of bug with the new patch where I can't play full screen. I edited PS4 app window settings and everything and no dice. I was going to restart and try to beat Adamantoise this time, but I guess not now. Gotta sell it.

No, because of Utada Hikaru's aversion to allowing her songs on downloadable media, there was no way to be sure. There was even a rumor that Skrillex was considered to be the next song writer. Thankfully Utada Hikaru has finally allowed KH games to have her songs with them in downloadable format though, starting with KH 2.8.

She's still doing well in music as well. I just watched her recent video for the anime Evangelion and she's still got it.

They need to kick Kamiya and MS off projects and put Kenji Saito at the forefront. Saito wants to make a Kill la Kill game: epicness.

Betting on $499. I would buy it if it had two or three killer apps... I mean if Scalebound was more like Drakengard I'd consider that one, but it's not: it's got a douchey main character and dubstep. Gears is now cartoony instead of gritty so that's out of the books. Halo I'm still interested in somewhat, but I'd want to see the main mode be 7 vs 7 instead of 5 vs 5, and more focus on big team battle modes as well. The main deal is if Sakaguchi(creator of FF) make...

It's a good game, so don't let my critique sway you, it just missed out on some elements. Enjoy the game because there are still plenty of good moments. I wouldn't consider this a 9/10 or 10/10 experience though like most FF.

Two different answers, well here's the official answer. Tetsuya Nomura has been 'working' on the game since 2010, but nobody knows if that was anything but the story. He likely had the game planned for PS4 from the start. The first trailer with a working engine wasn't released until after PS4 was released in 2013. This was when most actual game development was likely started. That engine was scrapped because it was difficult to work with. Work with the new engine(UE4) st...

Agreed, FFXV has it's great moments but was extremely one dimensional. They presented many scenarios that could have added to the story. The Empire, Luna's power, Aranea's OP badassery as well as Cor. But they failed to explore any of that. The Empire's mentality was not delved into like Rufus or Scarlette from the Shinra Corporation in FFVII, Aranea and Cor being the 'OP' characters didn't affect the story like Auron or Beatrix from their respective games. Lu...

It's not bringing my attitude down. I'm fine, what I'm disappointed in is FFXV. They're obviously missing story behind every corner. There were 3 CG cutscenes in the game, one to open, one to finish, and one in Altissia showing that Luna was supposed to be a bigger force in the story. None of the characters in the Niflheim Empire had an impact like Rufus or Scarlette in the Shinra Corporation like in FFVII. Cor and Aranea were prime candidates for an OP character like Aur...

I'm not a fan of the Switch's power in general, but the lower power settings is actually the smartest thing they could do. Consider that at that size 1080p is going to be somewhat negligible for the graphics in comparison to how much battery you're wasting. You'll seriously burn through battery twice as quickly for a small graphical update. It simply makes no sense at this time for them not to have a 720p screen and 720p mode on the go. 1080p for the big screen.

You're opinion. CG was always used to depict the best scenes in Final Fantasy, this game, just didn't have enough of them. The game was a buddy bro trip up until Chapter 10 or so. Hardly anything on the mentality of the Empire which is huge, Luna, Aranea, even Cor would be prime examples of a chance to use CG, if they had a story. But the fact of the matter is they didn't. That's exactly why we didn't have any CG scenes. This game was anemic on story that wasn't ...

At this point I'm actually mad I bought the DLC. So far all we know is that you get some extra missions playing as the other bros... That's the one thing I've had enough of with this game though- endless running, driving, banter, brocrap. What about the story, the lore? I'm talking about cutscenes being longer, more informative, and more lore-based, more than 3, yes THREE CG cutscenes in the entire game, more of the other characters, just overall more story in general. Pl...

I might give it another shot with this. Beat it in 13 hours on my first runthrough. Still wish there were more Luna scenes and maybe even a Noctis/Luna flashback chapter, as well as around 10-15 extra CG cutscenes though and more Cor, Aranea, Ardyn, Gentiana, Luna etc. Not extremely fond of the buddy-bro trip fetchquests. I want to see a story patch not focusing on the bros, we get enough of them in fetchquests... I want lore, story.

I only see this as a good thing for 3DS devs moving to Switch. Switch isn't going to get 3rd party multiplats if the power is as low as most rumors are pointing to.

I'll pick it up after a price drop, maybe a year down the line.

On consoles, yes, female gamers are more core gamers and males are mostly casuals playing CoD. I have no idea where you got your 2:1 numbers but that's simply false. There are far more male casuals playing CoD/Sports exclusively than females, and if you paid attention to the results from the survey, that's 100% fact. So I've got numbers and you don't. The only one here with an insane proposition is you. My numbers are proven right in front of yo...

To be fair, many of those PS4 games are not confirmed for 2017. God of War, Final Fantasy VII Remake, etc... And while PS4 is getting KH1+2 Remix Xbox has backwards compatibility, so that's kind of an unfair comparison.

All I own is a PS4-Pro by the way. PS4 still has way more games so that's why I chose it, but the list is a bit unfair.

The argument would imply that fantasy is more of a girls trope and destruction more of a boys trope... Since when was fantasy aimed at females over boys? Star Wars, LoTR, etc... these are aimed at women over men?

To be fair I'd say there's actually probably more males that play fantasy games than females, period. There are just more console male players and the results are skewed because of casuals that play nothing but CoD. The article makes it seem like fanta...

I'd digress. It has to do more to do with being a core gamer. Most males gamers are casuals who only play CoD, Battlefield, Sports, and GTA. Ask those gamers what PS's first party games are and most of them won't even know, and most of them bought a PS. Shocking, right? Female gamers are more invested in general, and thus play all genres as core gamers.

Males: Casuals outnumber core gamers by a long shot
Females: Core gamers outnumber casuals by a...

Actually Sakaguchi had a big role in producing pretty much every FF up to 10.

FFVII would have never had taken place in a city for example, Aeris's fate was largely influenced by an experience Sakaguchi had with his mother. FFIX would have never gone back to the series's roots. We owe alot to Sakaguchi. Kitase is already on the project, so why not add Sakaguchi as well? Also Kitase's record isn't perfect either, he produc...
