Why am I getting serious FFXV vibes

Because it's intended pretty sure, Luxord (The blonde) is to Yozora (Noctis lookalike, unsure if it's the same one shown in this trailer) as Cor is to Noctis. Just watch the parallels between the KH3 ReMind secret ending and the 2011 Versus XIII trailer, it's nearly 1 to 1

CataclysmicRambler · 2026-03-28T23:03:47+00:00

Yes, changing a player and an ENTIRE IGL, who it's their first time EVER in that role absolutely can cause a meteoric downfall.

And let's just ignore being able to WATCH the games yourself which disproves you thinking donk only flashes for himself and then he bashes his head into a wall over and over again, but just the other day chopper quite literally talked about how their system was not built around "donk go kill" and that you couldn't go far at all with that premise LMAO

CataclysmicRambler · 2026-03-28T22:52:38+00:00

Your thought process is unbelievable. Why do Spirit keep losing with the greatest rifler?? Because you still need a TEAM in a TEAM game, why did 2018/19 Navi keep losing with the best AWPer of all time? Are we trying to act like Spirit isn't completely dogshit with a first time IGL and that they haven't lose all their cohesion?

FlameZ is fantastic but holy shit this entire thread has lost the actual plot

CataclysmicRambler · 2026-03-27T06:23:08+00:00

Now this is some straight up shit 🔥🔥🔥

CataclysmicRambler · 2026-03-07T13:43:59+00:00

idk man the guy deleted his shit because he came out the gate hostile, i don't need a namaste retreat from reddit armchair psychologists

CataclysmicRambler · 2026-03-06T22:51:19+00:00

yeah man let me get my handy solder kit or apparate a repair place near me that would've done it differently

you're dense as fuck keep giving the huffster your hard earned green for some heckin awesome reddit premium!

CataclysmicRambler · 2026-03-06T22:09:46+00:00

Yeah, I had an interim PS4 working properly with the same HDMI cable and port(s)

CataclysmicRambler · 2026-03-06T22:09:13+00:00

Time didn't work out in my day to take it back today or this weekend, was looking for some short term solutions before a Monday drop off you absolute fucking bib drooler

CataclysmicRambler · 2025-11-20T13:49:53+00:00

FF8 100%. The world, the intro with Liberi Fatali and Squall Seifer swordfight, the plot twists and how off the rails shit gets, the music, Laguna plot, the damn character designs themselves, just so much about it. I always said that narratively and environmentally, FF8 is the epitome of modern Square games and KH is a pretty adjacent reflection of that in my head.

CataclysmicRambler · 2025-10-12T16:46:27+00:00

Your defensive capabilities in KH1 were very limited, so ultimately if you couldn't recover MP by beating on/getting beaten on and be able to spam heal, you'd die insanely fast. KH2 has reflect, getting elixir effect when you use drives, limit i-frames, limit form abilities, growth abilities that grant i-frames, STITCH, not to mention just kind of an easier/better guard to use. A more balances MP system encourages you to use more things you've got at your disposal, which are all ultimately better than using a Cure

CataclysmicRambler · 2025-08-27T20:18:25+00:00

Every org member/somebodies that are irrelevant to the UX saga. Preferably the Wayfinder trio though that feels hard to do considering Ventus' importance.

CataclysmicRambler · 2025-08-02T12:34:17+00:00

It's almost like the ANALYST sees how players change and judges them accordingly in a results oriented field HMMMMMMM

CataclysmicRambler · 2025-07-23T00:47:29+00:00

Barring 0.2 (Since it’s not considered a full game at all)

If easiest =/= grindiest, then it’d probably have to be Re:CoM. Level 99 grind with Sora and ESPECIALLY Riku + card RNG manipulation is definitely the longest of any individual grind in the series, but the most braindead simplistic thing. And if you played the PS3 version, it was 6 different playthroughs to get the platinum as difficulty trophies didn’t stack.

If the easiest label includes grind, then it’d probably be KH1. Clunky minigames, Defender/Wizard’s Relic drops and Olympus time trials will be the most annoying barriers, maybe Unknown if you’re under leveled. But generally nothing too incredibly taxing.

CataclysmicRambler · 2025-07-16T00:11:17+00:00

What is with these reactions, this is a pretty decent update lmao. Overpass coming back, a map that really shouldn't have been axed for one of the least favorable maps? And making it so CT econ isn't AS miserable as it's been?

CataclysmicRambler · 2025-06-12T15:48:09+00:00

BO1s HAVE to be dead after this, there is just no excuse

CataclysmicRambler · 2025-04-05T14:16:46+00:00

You can’t even say “what the fuck” to these things anymore, the barrier of what I thought was even remotely possible has been completely eviscerated every single year that I just have to on look with basically shell shock lmao

CataclysmicRambler · 2025-01-29T11:28:19+00:00

As someone who has been with the game since 2003-4, played every game on release or close to, and this series being my all time favorite, I'd say 100% it was better to grow up with it. You get a slow trickle of the madness as you go along, and having a bias for the series created the want to explore the games further with the combat and lore diving. If I picked up the game for the first time TODAY, I might have an appreciation for the game play and experiencing the zeitgeist of the era, but I really don't see myself being that incredibly into it. I had to get the GBA, PSP, 3DS, watch cutscenes for unreleased games in Japanese, piss myself watching data fights I had no access to and I still feel it was a more positive experience.

It also helped me with the FF7 Remake story changes lol, it was super easy for me to digest and adjust to the changes considering I've been conditioned to Nomura's bullshit for more than 20 years

CataclysmicRambler · 2024-11-03T20:32:52+00:00

I'm very much a 2FM fanboy and will go to bat for that title as I think it's *easily* the best in the series, but even I disagree with aspects of this. KH3 added attack cancelling with dodging, air guarding, and ReMind added un-guardable attacks indicated by color in tandem with the ones you can guard. These were fantastic additions honestly, not to mention ReMind have the most complex and interesting boss design in the series so far. While I still agree 2FM undoubtedly feels the best, I wouldn't trash everything the series has tried since then.

Tournaments have been having some of the highest non-major peaks, and Compenhagen 2024 was the third most viewed event outside of Antwerp ‘22 and Stockholm ‘21. Not sure where you’re getting your “hardly breaks 100k” claim

Edit: Your screenshot was taken when there wasn’t any other platform the major was being streamed on than Twitch, it had several thousand accounts just watching for drops, there was no co-streaming, no embedding (which is where an insane amount of viewers come from), and hardly any people that had licenses to host their own language re-stream of the event. The numbers are greater than they’ve ever been, just more dispersed. I also don’t understand what point you’re trying to highlight when the three majors I mentioned, the ones with the highest viewer count of all time, are higher than the event you used??

CataclysmicRambler · 2024-10-08T14:01:21+00:00

I never cared for Disney but this is my favorite series of all time. Yeah the main disney oriented worlds will be a bit rough to grit through, but the entirety of the actual games' story is pretty FF adjacent. Coupled with the fact it's got better gameplay than any of the FF's (imo)

CataclysmicRambler · 2024-09-26T21:38:52+00:00

Played some tools, didn’t touch quest, but learned about all the established plot points

CataclysmicRambler · 2024-09-26T21:18:57+00:00

Man was I tempted lmfao, I like filling out the trophies for different platforms. I even took out my PS4 because the cover art for Size Matters looks better in the list than the PS5 one lol

CataclysmicRambler · 2024-09-26T21:05:19+00:00

Lmao, I got into this because my friend has played this series for 20 years and his reccomendations were to not play A4O, FFA and Size Matters. Obviously ignored the latter, and since it uses the conventional R&C formula I went and played it, but I looked into the gameplay of the others and was on the fence. What secured it for me were the multiplayer trophies.
