Thoughts on Episode DUSCAE FFXV

[Rowan]

They can't please everyone...

I've said this 50 thousand times...this is a new generation of Final Fantasy so stop expecting shit to be as good as anything prior to 13. You start with 13 and go from there, yeah it sounds stupid but that is literally the direction they are doing. 13 is the new 1.

I'm not demanding they please everyone, I'm demanding they please me.

The gaming audience is getting older and he wanted it to still be enjoyed by people who don't necessarily have the reflexes anymore"

yet they pander to the action RPG genre. Wtf is wrong with them. If the culmination of my character development is based on switching around some swords in the menu, then the game is doomed for me. I'm not a plebian, I require something more intricate, not something with the illusion of intricacy. I finished the demo holding down square.

Sounds like it's catering to older people.

Rowan, I have beat most FF games by holding down X and just attacking...does that make FF7 bad cause I can hold O and win?

You have to customize your characters to get to that point at end game, something that is fun and worthwhile to achieve. I can 1 shot every boss in ff8 if I make the effort to play the minigame, use card to not gain exp and gain AP etcetc, there is so much involved to get to that point my dear loaf and that is what I'm getting at. Those are the things that make the game enjoyable, the system is designed to be exploited if you put the effort in (more-so in VIII) but you cannot just attack your way to victory in ff7 early game - mid game.

Pretty sure the Behemoth killed you if you were just holding down the attack button.

Behemoth kicked my ass, but when I was near death, I 1 shot him with a summon. Look, I know its for the demo, but cmon thats so cheap. You can also easily get to level 99 in the demo and fight it normally. A lot of stuff in the demo should and most likely will not represent the final product. The food idea is cool but also, should not represent the final product as having status immunity from eating a meal, is realllllllyyyy overpowered.

Sorry for being so sour, but after all these years, I expected more ; instead of something thats not accurate representation of what to expect in the final game. Im to the point where they shouldnt have released anything at all because my expectations have now changed when they possibly needn't have. I guess I'm just not a fan of the sword system. It just doesnt feel right to me. I certainly getting this when it comes out ,but I hope that it grows on me somehow.
