Sorry, but if you can beat the whole game without actually doing anything but letting the computer auto attack/heal, and it only get entertaining at super, super high level play (I don't agree it's even entertaining then but w/e) then the battle system is garbage.
Also, good battle system (which, again, 13 doesn't have) =/= good game. Grandia 3 has an *amazing* batttle system but the game is mediocre at best because literally everything else is...
You're stripping things of cultural context. In the US over 100 million people (38% of the US population) are anti-gay and in over 20 states it's legal to fire people for being gay. It gets special recognition because in a lot of places and companies in the US you are treated worse. I live in one of the most librel states in the country, I've been treated worse, by government employees no less.
In a vaccume, you'd be right. We don't live in a vaccume. Y...

Just because some people are too ignorant to do research and know which cards and tvs can and cannot do 4k doesn't mean it;s a "problem." If you pay attention, you don't have the "problem." Cards and displays that can support it (IE display port 1.2 compliant or better and HDMI 2.0 compliant or better) don't have probelms magically not supporting it, and those that don't, don't. It's not a problem for people who bother to research...
Then people should do research before they buy crap. If you bought a TV without doing that research, you deserved to have wasted that money. Sony should have made things clear, yes, but it's still on the buyer for not checking. HDMI 1.4 isn't sufficent for proper 4k gaming. It physically cannot do 4k/60 or 4k/30 (it caps at 4k/24.) It's not a PS4 Pro issue, it's a your dumb ass bought a sub-standard TV issue.
If you're thinking the low color depth that ...
4k/60 is out of the cards for HDMI 1.4, it's just not possible. The PS4 Pro upscales the images to 4k internally, ergo it's sending a 4k/60 signal to the TV in several games, that would cause an error that simply prevented your TV from recieving a signal so it's disabled.
If you can see the difference between 1080p and 4k, you can *also* see the lower color depth, so you get a higher resolution view of just how bad low color depth looks. Cus that's desirabl...
No, we haven't. If you have an AMD R9 3XX or 9XX or better, and a moniter that supports either HDMI 2.0 or Display Port 1.2 or above, you can do 4k 60. (even if the card can't run it for some/most games)
If you have an AMD R9 2XX you have HDMI 1.4 and can still do 4k/30 and 4k/50 with display port. Even if it "doesn't show up" on some games, it's super easy to have a tool hack the drivers and force them to allow you to display at any resolution/fra...

650USD. Didn't even bother to find a sale, and this will thrash a PS4 pro in terms of performance (partly GPU, but mostly the way, way, way better CPU.) And yes, the fancy upscaling is perfectly possible on PC if the devs actually wanted to do it. (Ubisoft already has.)
2: Ubuntu. No OS cost.
3: PS+ eats your money. (and the games they "...
Not even that.
https://pcpartpicker.com/li...
635USD, if you get nothing on sale. And the CPU is way more powerful than the PS4 pros, so when you're dealing with CPU bound process it will *way* outperform the PS4.

1) PC games are cheaper to buy in the first place, often being 10% or 20% off on launch day and upwards of 50% off inside 6 months if you catch them on sale.
2)they play old console (and PC) games you already own
3)they have more F2P games, and there are tons and tons and tons of straight up free games as a simple consequence of it not costing much money to get games distributed on PC
4) all the "free" games consoles get are ol...
It's obvious news. Midrange computers right now are more powerful than they've claimed the Scorpio is. Trying to compete with high end PCs with something weaker than a new mid range PC would be stupid, doubly so when you consider that XBLG subscriptions add $100 to the price every 2 years.
Using the base PS4 as an example $400 at launch, 150 in PS+ to date, at least 150 more in PS+ till end of life. If you're upgrading from the PS4 to the PS4 pro then you have ...
They DO provide facts. They detail gameplay systems, graphical settings, performance on their hardware, details about the story and characters and specific failings or high points, ect.
News flash, part of that research is reading/watching reviews (which, btw, is usually the only trustworthy gameplay footage pre-release.) In fact that's most of the research.
They've set up a blatantly anti-consumer practice where you buy on blind faith and gamble...
1) The companies making the games are the single least trustworthy source of information about the game, they have multi million dollar steaks in selling as many copies as possible. Thus, the only trustworthy information is 3rd party.
2) It's all opinions. The whole point is that they can provide the actual facts about the game and their experience with them so that you can use that to determine if you might like it. You aren't supposed to take reviews on blind fai...
Read above sarcastic response.
Also you're wrong. The Combat of games like 10-2 and Grandia 2/3 quite simply shame most of FF despite using the same or very similar systems. Why are these games less popular? Because the stories suck.
Yes, your standard for what makes a game good or bad is the objective reality and I'm just or poor pleb who's wrong about everything.
Or I actually like Turn based/ATB combat and so long as the combat is tolerable I find the story more important for some games because games can take far, far, far more time developing said story properly than movies ever could due to being 10x to 30x as long, not to mention the story telling tricks they can use that other formats st...
Ugh. Everything you wanted in a Final Fantasy, and yet it has a poorly told story and is carried by the combat system. That's, you know, the EXACT opposite of what FF has always tried to (and mostly succeeded to) deliver.
Thanks but no thanks, if I want combat to carry the experience I'll just go play Dragon's Dogma again.
I already have a PC, I don't have to pay for online to play on PC, you can play games at a higher quality than the PS4 pro for about the same cost as the PS4 Pro provided you buy used parts, and the PS4 Pro is 400 USD not including the price of PSN.
No, it isn't. What you can pull off is just limited in different ways.
Oh sure, I'll spend 500 bucks I don't have on an inferior and underpowered system so that I can play 1 game.
Yeah, nobody has an interest in more than 1 genre of game and everybody has infinite money to buy all of the games they might want at the same time.
Tomb Raider on the Xbone totally didn't have it's sales crushed by making the dire mistake of releasing at the same time as Fallout 4.
Uh, no? Yuna? Rikku? Lulu? Porom? Tifa? Freya? Beatrix? Many others besides?
And even if they were all damsels in distress, that doesn't mean they're A) not strong or b)not good characters.
Both Yuna and Tifa have "damsel" moments, for example, but Tifa turns around and saves Clouds life and Yuna basically rescues herself twice. Neither are things to be rescued, they're fleshed out characters with their own goals, personalities and...
