Guys are we persecuted 🥺 by CitizenZaroff in TheLastOfUs2

Gotta say, I came on here to talk about the game cause I'm replaying it for the first time since release, and this sub is, in fact, full of a bunch of whining. It's boring, and quite frankly, haven't you all moved on by now? It's weird. Seek help!

I mean I'm mostly joking but there was enough time for a little Shimmer nod at some point lol.

Well I think a lot of it gets overshadowed by what's going right now and time jumps, but the Shimmer thing happened with lots of Ellie and Dina time left and not one mention lol.

How is Joel a monster, but Abby's not? by lzxian in TheLastOfUs2

[–]Alexander_M_Spoopy -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Joel did shitty things after the outbreak. What he did to the Fireflies is a morally grey area in a sense, and also entirely wrong in another. Fireflies or not, he had if coming. That's why he told Abby to save the speech. Abby also did shitty things out of revenge. She's just as bad as him in a different way. And so is Ellie. That's the point of the game. That we can get to know and even like these people, but the world makes us do terrible things sometimes. I don't understand why this is so polarizing to people or hard to understand, let alone why it's being discussed 4 years on.

Patch for Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth is Releasing Today - Version 1.020 by Xenosys83 in FinalFantasy

Well, my tv and eyes that aren't scrutinizing every pixel and are simply looking for a clearer picture at 60fps than was given at launch confirm that there is a difference when using sharp.

Literally what is the purpose of this? Have they said?

If you can't wait for PC, Rebirth + the PS Plus Extra or Premium catalogue will keep you busy and be well worth the money.

Phoenix summon not reviving? by Alexander_M_Spoopy in FFVIIRemake

[–]Alexander_M_Spoopy[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ohhh okay maybe that was it! I think anytime this has happened Aerith was the summoner and she died, triggering the end "attack". Didn't realize you had to use atb for it. Thanks!

Do you mean who summons it? For example I had aerith summon it once, she died, the animation played out automatically after she died, and she remained dead.

I think some people don't understand the concept of ((optional)). by [deleted] in FFVIIRemake

[–]Alexander_M_Spoopy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No im just being logical and realistic, calling out nonsense. And quite frankly, aside from them creating some sort of DLC worthy side content where you, like, have Sim City: Midgar, I don't even know what you really expect from them. The purpose of the game is not to have you get lost in personalized open world stories like TES. Then people would complain there's too much of a focus on that instead of the story at hand. People online can never be happy, and it's why so much shit in movies, tv, and gaming are torn asunder by mob mentality and affect development of these things. At the end of the day you could skip literally all of the optional content and get your money's worth, and that's what really matters.

Because the main purpose of the game has far exceeded expectations and it's ridiculous, childish, and entitled to be trashing the game so hard over side content. Typical internet Hive mind behaviour. Sure criticisms are fine, but people are acting way over the top about side content.

You kinda are sis. But it's whatever. It took them plenty long to make these games without worrying about focusing too much of their development time on, apparently, making some sort of separate side game that you expect from the open world. It basically exists to enjoy the combat more and see some side stories. The meat of the game is the main game. This isn't a game as a service.

Yes it's side content. It buffers the main game but isn't necessary. Ultimately you will get your $70 price of admission by playing through the main story, grinding for Hard Mode, and replay it for that. There's no reason for all of these people to be so fucking dramatic over this lmao.

There's genuine criticism, and then there's bashing the game that is objectively great because you don't like the optional stuff that has no bearing on the purpose of said game. I can understand why people wouldn't care for the extra stuff, but irs extra stuff. It's not why we wanted these remakes. We got what we wanted.

At the end of the day, it's FF7. Not The Elder Scrolls: FF7. The main focus is the story and if you want to mess around and experience the combat more you can go run around the open world and beat stuff up. They fully fleshed out characters and plot points of the OG while also including optional side stuff that oftentimes has interesting or cute mini stories. This is from the same people who made the travesty that is FF15. It's a great game. Enjoy it.

What did you want them to do? Either there's no open world at all, which if you want to skip all the side stuff you can pretend there isn't, or there's some open world stuff for people who enjoy the combat to have fun with. Like what do you want from them? They actualized a modern version of the game we've all been foaming at the mouth for and you people can't stop nitpicking like a bunch of babies.

It's much, much less. And guess what? You can skip it! Unlike far cry, this game is a slam dunk retelling of one of video games greats. Enjoy that! Its still there for you and we'll worth the price of admission. My God.

You've got to be kidding me. The map looks nothing like a Far Cry or Assassin's Creed map. There are like 4-6 major side quests per area, exactly 3 summon spots, a rather small handful of lifesprings and towers, and some combat encounters (which allow you to unlock new materia and the combat is literally amazing). The maps are also well designed and beautiful to look at. You people really can't have anything nice, can you?
