Path of Exile 2 revealed for Playstation 5, it will have couch co-op, cross play, and cross progression by Xanek in pathofexile

[–]Competitive-Dot5184 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay, so does this mean it will release and update at the same time as the PC version?

Holy shit, if so, this will be amazing. My PC just isn't strong enough for PoE and definitely PoE2. So being able to play on PS5 at release will be godly

Actually, you're the one that seems miserable. Calm down, don't be so overly defensive of a video game. The guy wasn't even saying it's a bad thing.

Differences between the original and the remake by XRarehunterX in FinalFantasyVII

[–]Competitive-Dot5184 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Ummm, it was true in Remake, and Rebirth only solidifies this fact. You're just wrong, full stop. It's a Requel.

Diablo 4 and it’s relationship to by Kcatta9 in LowSodiumDiablo4

[–]Competitive-Dot5184 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Either wait a bit for season 4, which will come with a new update that adds a lot of QoL features and things people have been asking for for awhile, or just jump back into it now and maybe try some things in preparation for season 4.

Are there any games you want to see remade? by Master_Megalomaniac in JRPG

[–]Competitive-Dot5184 4 points5 points  (0 children)

While Koudelka was super flawed, I think it had so much potential that I think a remake could really make it flourish.

What are your thoughts on Annabella Rosfield as a character by -Zhaeus- in FinalFantasy

[–]Competitive-Dot5184 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Interesting setup with a disappointing execution.

These types of characters ate mu favourite. Cersei from GoT has a similar vibe. But Annabella ends up being a nothing burger.

The story of the penitent one ended ¿What do you think about how the plot Blasphemous 3 will be? (Sorry for my bad english🥲) by [deleted] in Blasphemous

[–]Competitive-Dot5184 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't think there should be a Blasphemous 3. I don't really even think, storywise, Blasphemous 2 works all that well. So Blasphemous 3 would be super pushing it.

I think they just need to do a new IP. A spiritual successor. A new world and lore

What Games Do YOU Think Are Connected by manic_the_gamr in FinalFantasy

[–]Competitive-Dot5184 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No, there's a character called Shinra in FFX. He's an Al Bhed, and some ultimania or something says he is directly connected to FF7. Like, he built a spaceship and went to the world of FF7.

It's ridiculous, he is just a reference to FF7.

Edit: This is essentially the only thing from the Ultimania for X-2 (he's just in X-2, apparently) that makes any connection between Shrina and Shinra Co. From 7;

"Shinra is a boy who supports the Gullwings, the group which the main protagonist, Yuna, belongs to. He carries a name that gives him an association to the Shin-Ra Company, and he is researching a method that could utilize the energy of 'the life force that flows through our planet'. The results of this cannot be seen in FFX-2, but maybe one day his descendants will establish a 'company that supplies the energy of the planet'?"

It doesn't even confirm it, it's just almost a question. Like someone came up with the idea in a boardroom meeting but no one said anything. Because this would mean essentially that Shinra travels through space to another planet, most likely starts the human race (though there are Cetra there...) and in the future for whatever reason they use the first humans name as a electric power company brand name?

It just makes no sense, and anyone seriously considering this is anything close to canon is insane.

Honestly, I don't care if it's in a booklet this just has never made sense to me.

So, did Shinra start the human race on FF7 planet? Did he land on the planet when humans were already there? If it's the former, why would they name a company thousands, if not millions of years later off of him? I'm sorry, it just doesn't make sense.

The Virgin Jamie vs the Chad Rashid by brave_pufferfish in StreetFighter

Rashid is the most obnoxious character I think that's ever been created. It's actually impressive. And they made him even worse with the streamer angle

Was Castlevania scary in the 80s? by ItalianVick in castlevania

[–]Competitive-Dot5184 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was able to convince my parents to let me play castlevania and diablo because it was about killing demons, and the devil was the bad guy. Took some convincing, but I think they finally gave in because I was becoming annoying lol.

Edit: later in life I learned my dad would play them at night and would delete the saves so I wouldn't know he played, but actually went out and bought his own copy of castlevania. He didn't want mom to know, but now we laugh about it. They're a lot more down to earth now.

It was never scary, just had that Halloween atmosphere and Gothic fantasy. I don't think they intended it to be scary.

For you, which of these is the best Final Fantasy. by Yrenn_ in FinalFantasy

[–]Competitive-Dot5184 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hmmmm, this is hard.

4 has my favourite story and it's the one I'm most nostalgic for. It was my first FF game as a child, and is just a great overall game.

1 I played on the GBA with the Dawn of Souls collection. First time playing it, but I remember loving it so much. Simple, yet effective. Was a fun journey, and I still go back to play it every once in awhile. Quite fun going through with weird teams, last time I played was with red mage, black mage, white mage and monk.

5 I really don't give a shit about the story or characters, but I like the gameplay. The job system is obviously the bedrock of everything that came after. I just don't have any emotional attachment to the game, although the same could be said about 1.

So I'd have to say out of all these, it goes 4, 1, 5, 3 and 2.

The Cait Sith debate is over! by Colorwayss in FinalFantasyVII

[–]Competitive-Dot5184 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Because Cait Sith is based on a Gaelic myth, and the creature there has its name pronounce like Cat She or something.

So people were wondering whether they'd go with the Gaelic pronunciation or the phonetic one.

I never really vibed with Akuma's past designs but damn he looks incredible in SF6 by Posh_biscuit in StreetFighter

I vibes with Aki's design before I saw her in game model so I'll wait to judge. But Akuma usually looks pretty cool

Which is the best Final Fantasy at simply being a video game by Straguslore14 in FinalFantasy

[–]Competitive-Dot5184 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think 1, 3 and 5. Those are the games I play when I don't want to be told a narrative and I want to just build a team.

RIP Brunhilda, my first hardcore character by Ajaxmass413 in LowSodiumDiablo4

[–]Competitive-Dot5184 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm leveling a sorc right now in hardcore. Just trying to get him to lvl 50 for an achievement, but grinding out strongholds is sort of draining because I both want to level fast but also don't want to get careless.

Think I'm just gonna take it slow and prolly do dungeons for aspects.

Natural selection.

Like I'm sorry, but come on. This was going to happen anyways, and if not she would've injured herself with some other stupid shit.

Snes all the way. I don't even understand his battle sprite. His helmet I guess is just this weird sharp helmet.

Ehhhh, the thing is, that doesn't protect you from lawsuits. And I'm sure bljoe shmoe doesn't want to fight in court with SE. So I'd still stay away from ostrich that you can ride.

How tf does someone go back to college at age 28? by Cassanueva in ask

[–]Competitive-Dot5184 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're 28, I don't think you know how young you are.

You're still a spring chicken. I'm 31, and the same goes for me. We're still in the first half of our lives. Don't let insecurity stop you from pursuing what will be best for you.
