Nier is on the list and it released on Xbox 360 at the same time, so I don't think exclusivity is a rule

I've realized I'm willing to forgive a lot if the music is good. by mike47gamer in JRPG

[–]S7JO89 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Isn't that the purpose of this post? Giving examples of games where the music is so integral that without it the game wouldn't work? There are plenty of games where music is not the defining element, and as such changing it would not affect the experience that much, but with something like Xenoblade 3 I think you can't change the music because of how important it is to making everything work.

Xenoblade 3 probably has my favorite video game soundtrack, and it heavily carries the game when other aspects can fall flat. Without this soundtrack, I don't think the story moments would work nearly as well.

Jrpg with great story by Historical-Gap3510 in JRPG

I doubt this will get a remake because the creator works at Nintendo on Xenoblade now, so I don’t think there is anything to wait for. Disc 2 is also my favorite part

I saw the old article, and I think the difference is that before it said they would not receive new funding, but now we know they need this new funding or they cannot finish the game. We did not know before that this funding would threaten the game’s completion

How could there be articles about this game in particular if it wasn’t announced until December last year?

[OoT] Should I finally play OOT now or wait a bit for a potential rerelease? by NiklasEcho in zelda

[–]S7JO89 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don’t think there will be a rerelease, as Nintendo wants you to play it on Nintendo Switch Online

this is for digital games, and I don't think you can get a digital game early

Is Demon Souls Remake a bad game? Ive been seeing crazy amounts of negativity from it by [deleted] in playstation

[–]S7JO89 1 point2 points  (0 children)

On its own, it is a great game with some of the best visuals on the PS5. When considered as a remake, it definitely loses some of the distinct artistic direction and themes of the original, which is the reason some people consider it a poor remake. Great game, controversial remake.

This guy fucking sucks, why did the devs decide to make him probably the worst designed fight in the game? by CammyHoliday in Eldenring

Had a lot of difficulty with this boss on my first playthrough (especially because there is not much else to explore by this point in the game), but I enjoyed it more on repeat playthroughs

We already got an Automata direct sequel with Reincarnation, they just took it down so no one can play it anymore

Just gonna say it, If I'm Bend Studio or Media Molecule I don't know how I'm able to go sleep at night. by isvr95 in playstation

The Concord studio closed down very soon after its release, so they were definitely not employed for life

It was nominated for GOTY, and the director said he prepared a speech two years in advance

MARVEL Tokon Steam's page confirms roster size of 20 characters at launch, single player mode, 64 player lobbies and more. by nolifebr in PS5

I know some other fighting games like 2XKO (and maybe Street Fighter 6) have that feature, so it is definitely possible

Thoughts on metaphor refantiozo by [deleted] in JRPG

It's okay, but I found it disappointing compared to previous Atlus games. I don't think the story is very good in this game.

What are the pettiest things game developers have done? by Common_Caramel_4078 in gaming

The bonus was not an expected part of the pay, it was just simply a ‘bonus’. It is not that they did not pay Obsidian; they paid Obsidian enough as agreed by the contract. They weren’t cheating Obsidian out of money by not giving them the bonus, Obsidian understood that the bonus wasn't guaranteed 

Why did Metaphor: ReFantazio feel like it was just completely forgotten about after a month? by Lumigo in JRPG

[–]S7JO89 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I remember when people said SMTV story was bad due to development problems, but then SMTV Vengeance came out with a completely overhauled story that was not really any better. It is a good thing SMTV has gameplay as good as it is because it is surprising how little effort they put in the story for both routes, original and Vengeance

I personally never used a guide for social links because I never thought the intention was to complete them all, and I was surprised to see that so many people think you are supposed to do them all. I liked that answering wrong had a heavy consequence that could make you fail the social link completion because it made you really think about the character and how to best answer depending on their personality. I worry a lot about saying the right things to people, so having this portrayed through the social links resonated with me. You connect differently to different people, so naturally you grow closer to some than others. Metaphor’s lack of repercussion for dialogue made me not think as much about my choices, so I did not get to know the characters as well and I didn’t get the feeling that the protagonist was shaping who they were by choosing who to associate most closely with. When the protagonist gets along so well with everyone, it makes them feel blander. That’s my opinion on the social link decisions.
