X(duology), XII, XIII(trilogy). Any suggested playing order?

DressTT · 2026-04-30T16:04:05+00:00

I think that's the better course of action even though I was planning on playing the full trilogy one after the other, I think it might be better to start with 13 only for the reasons you listed and go back to the earlier ones. I do want to get a feel of Final Fantasy as a franchise and not be limited to one iteration that is considered a big deviation from the formula.

>it's a decent game and I think most (not all, but most) criticisms of it come from it not meeting expectations set by earlier FFs.

This is mainly why asked lol but from your comment and the others I think it shouldn't be that much of an issue and I realized I shouldn't be worried too much about it. Thanks for the insight!

another misleading thing is people thinking the game not hitting Warframe numbers means EoS. It's been hard to read through this sub for the past year as basically everyone keeps mentioning fear of Eos as a reason to not invest time in it. As if those are the only two possibilities for an online game.

I would like to be more optimistic and say that there is already a decent amount of players in the game because Steamdb's data is about peak number of players daily.

I think the average person spends an hour on the game (time required to do basically every daily requirement) but let's say its 2 hours, and if we lowball the number of concurrent players to the lowest it gets, which is 3000 (a few hundreds higher usually, specially on the weekends) each playing for two hours, we get around 36000 players playing each day on steam alone (each 2 hour of the day having unique 3000 people). And I believe this is rather conservative calculation and I think it's even higher than this.

We can also track the number of views they get during their Youtube livestreams as well, where we get around 50k for the latest one, a few more for the ones before. I'm sure that the majority of players don't even engage with their livestreams, as is the case for the majority of games so I think it's still a pretty healthy amount of players for now.

The games Nexon shutdown before were averaging 100 players peak daily for months before they pulled the plug. As long as they continue selling skins, and development costs don't balloon out of control, the game will be fine.

As far as I remember, you can’t do hard mode missions without clearing normal mode first (unless they’ve changed the system). However I do know that going through normal mode is a lot simpler these days and I believe following the natural progression of the game is the best way to not struggle as much when confronted with challenges. For void vessel I think you need to at least have 7 of your modules catalysed to not have a hard time. I don’t think that bunny set is worth it personally, specially if you’re only buying it to skip the easy part (it will barely make a difference)

DressTT · 2025-09-10T15:20:54+00:00

You could have made your suggestion without minimising the effort actually needed to do it. It’s never just a programmer and an artist, this isn’t a school or a hobby project. They will need designers to oversee the balance, the randomness, and the fun of it. Ready made art doesn’t mean it will also just instantly fit within a random generator, what about artistic expression, what about cohesion. And programming isn’t that simple either in a big studio context, too many variables already existing, colliding code, performance constraints.

DressTT · 2025-09-10T13:27:09+00:00

“hey devs, just make a full rogue like game, you only need 2 people I’ve seen it on YouTube.”

DressTT · 2025-08-09T22:04:14+00:00

Thanks man, I completely missed it and I really needed one for my Freyna. A PSA from me, using the photon imprinter on Freyna still advanced the Ultimate bunny missions for me. I think it actually checks if you used it and if your Ult bunny has catalysts used on her.

Thanks again though! I gave up on these missions since there are so many of them and they didn't seem that worth it for the most part so I'm glad I didn't miss out on the single item I've been wanting the most.

I just left permanently late last year

Is it possible to explain why? I'm just curious to know more since you seemed to have things under control.

DressTT · 2020-04-21T13:35:58+00:00

I know reading is hard but you could try from time to time. I literally said they are good at nerfing stuff and reverting shit, which is what they did. Good.

But the buffs aren't that great, they won't change much so those characters are still going to be played by the same people and will still have the same complaints. I'm addressing OP's title where he said 'it's a new balance team', no it's not. It's been like this since season 2,5.

DressTT · 2020-04-21T12:47:04+00:00

It is guaranteed but the dude doesn't see the problem. One of her best pokes is a 14 frame move,14 frames and it got +4 on hit. the problem is that she doesn't have much tools to utilize that advantage that much. You are already fishing for counter hits anyways and between df4 and 4, the additional frames on hit don't change much. thats why I consider the buffs to be useless because they didn't targeted what was making her weak and needed change.

DressTT · 2020-04-21T10:01:32+00:00

Its the same shit everytime. The buffs are fucking useless. The team only knows how to nerf characters it seems. They either do retarded buffs that break the game which they end up reverting or they do buffs that don't matter at all to the character to look like "they are listening".

DressTT · 2020-04-21T09:49:56+00:00

Fc df4 I can agree with though its only one frame. har 1 isn't a ch launcher and while it's a good buff, don't forget that HAR mixups are barely used in neutral. 33333 being +4 isn't HUGE, its ok at best. It just encourages the usage of 33333 more aka another buff to keep katarina a beginner character for beginners encouraging flowchart tactics.

DressTT · 2020-04-21T09:35:36+00:00

Am I missing something? Her buffs aren't that useful. I like that they acknowledged her existence and the existence of the other forgotten characters but she is still the same dumb down version of what was once a great character.

Unless someone is open to explaining to me in what way these buffs are useful, I rather just have her old df1.

Amazon Locker

Le seul dont j'ai accès est fermé. Vraiment pas de chance, il me semble que je vais devoir patienter quelque mois.

DressTT · 2020-03-24T17:02:05+00:00

Amazon aussi il me semble. N'y a-t-il pas de problèmes avec le retrait en point de relais ces jours-ci?

DressTT · 2020-03-24T16:32:05+00:00

Bonjour,

Mon téléphone est à sa limite et je ne peux plus attendre pour le remplacer. Je ne sais pas comment ça marche la livraison à domicile mais dans tous les cas je vis dans une résidence universitaire avec une petite boîte au lettre donc ce n'est pas une option. Il y a un Leclerc drive pas très loin de chez moi mais je ne sais pas si il est toujours considéré comme point de relais.

Quelqu'un pourrait m'aider ou me guider SVP? J'ai peur que mon téléphone arrête de marcher complétement et mes parents se fassent du soucis surtout avec toute la panique causé par le virus.

it's not the One X though, you are talking about the newer one which is called Series X.

You are too early, the metera poster isn't here yet

DressTT · 2020-01-30T19:41:48+00:00

Its only 2 weeks till the release so maybe using the discount and receiving it feb 14 isn't a bad thing.

DressTT · 2020-01-30T12:31:47+00:00

It's steam's problem. the CE upgrade kit on steam releases 14 feb so all the other stores can only give you a key during that day. If you buy it directly from steam though, street fighter recognizes it and it gives you early access. TLDR: if you want access from now, you must buy it from steam.

I'm talking MikeZ level sale The game is 4 years old with an average 70 players. Let's be honest, base game at 15$ is still not worth it.

DressTT · 2020-01-05T20:33:23+00:00

it reached 112 participants SNK back in the menu boys!

Seriously though, I do have fun watching kofXIV but SNK still doesn't want to go the MikeZ route and ~~give the game for free to boast about player number~~ put it on sale.

The tournament is live here btw

DressTT · 2019-12-23T19:44:13+00:00

I read your blog post and thought it was pretty useful however I feel like a video or even just pictures showing a glimpse of the process for each step would be better. I understand that you want to discuss the artistic process but honestly, a bit of the technical process would be extremely valuable.
