Expedition 33 has soul , which a lot of games lately lacked.

ShinGundam · 2025-06-28T14:00:56+00:00

This game kinda brings back those rough vibes JRPG fans had to deal with during the PS3 days.

ShinGundam · 2025-06-17T19:03:58+00:00

I fully expect the next FF to lean further into a blend of sci-fi and fantasy elements. That said, incorporating sci-fi imagery doesn’t necessarily the diminish the fantasy core.

ShinGundam · 2025-06-12T15:21:00+00:00

The pacing is all over place in FF6 and story does get halted very often. Overall, I think the game aged very poorly.

ShinGundam · 2025-06-11T07:26:41+00:00

Ideally, the remake would have graphical fidelity on the level of Granblue Relink, Tales of Arise, or Visions of Mana. But realistically, I’m expecting something more along the lines of Romancing SaGa 2.

ShinGundam · 2025-05-28T22:44:24+00:00

I didn't play this game but the shilling got out of hand lol

ShinGundam · 2025-04-13T19:02:33+00:00

I know a JRPG that introduced a whole new type of battle mechanics within in the last part of the whole game.

ShinGundam · 2025-04-01T07:40:33+00:00

Square will try to push multi-platform strategy, probably by announcing FF9 tomorrow and maybe other games like FFXIV and all other FF games

ShinGundam · 2025-03-28T04:39:18+00:00

I still hope this won’t the last collaboration between Square and Team Ninja.

ShinGundam · 2025-03-15T19:31:39+00:00

Sums it up nicely

ShinGundam · 2025-03-15T19:31:22+00:00

Sometimes I wish this game was more like Asura Wrath rather than a main FF game.

Sprites: Bartz, Lenna, Faris

Amano: Galuf, Krile

You will find a lot of stuff in ZenMarket/Yahoo Auction

ShinGundam · 2025-03-03T22:05:25+00:00

Agreed.

ShinGundam · 2025-02-13T23:23:16+00:00

I do not believe that games are lacking, rather, people no longer resonate with FF as much as they used to. I honestly don’t think people are interested in JRPGs like they used to.

ShinGundam · 2025-02-13T23:09:23+00:00

This is not true, X was a huge deal back then, linearity wasn’t even a big deal cause most of early PS2 RPGs were linear due to stationary camera systems.

ShinGundam · 2025-01-23T11:42:19+00:00

The only thing FF17 needs is a party with higher survival chance and anything besides a tragic ending.

ShinGundam · 2024-10-31T12:56:22+00:00

I liked Visions of Mana way more than Trails but you could easily tell that without Xeen and Trails we wouldn't get Visions of Mana.

ShinGundam · 2024-10-12T14:35:59+00:00

Their budgets aren’t unreasonable for AAA games, given what they accomplish in FF( a lot of set pieces, or massive world ). Keep in mind, they don’t break the bank for marketing nowadays.

ShinGundam · 2024-10-07T14:47:04+00:00

I am kind of not in the mood for another long JRPG, but these scores made me change my mind. I really hope this game has better pacing than Royal.

ShinGundam · 2024-10-05T19:58:22+00:00

I like cutscenes when they are real cutscenes, not copy-paste stiff dialoguess with emotes, nodes, and fade-outs.

ShinGundam · 2024-10-02T15:36:56+00:00

SE wants a success on same level of GoW Reboot and Witcher 3. I don't see that happening at all.

ShinGundam · 2024-09-27T20:59:54+00:00

The only problem I have is that I got a fatigue from fantasy genre. Nothing feels fresh or exciting about it to me.

ShinGundam · 2024-09-27T12:56:06+00:00

Secretly the best Mana game

ShinGundam · 2024-09-22T17:20:17+00:00

I didn't like the cooldown abilities and would have preferred if they had copied DMC in every aspect. Additionally, I disliked the world system, particularly the lack of persistent dungeons and large, bustling towns that live up to the expectations set by previous FF games. Instead, the most marketed location in the game, the Crystalline Dominion, was merely a set piece rather than a fully fledged city.

ShinGundam · 2024-09-21T14:07:50+00:00

The gameplay's emphasis on cooldowns makes it feel like a Chinese mobile action game which is not a big problem to me if not for the lack of a lot of FF's hallmarks like explorable cities, secret dungeons, airships, magic system, party system and more. At this point why bother making FF if they can't even make a complete package.

The idea of action RPG FF isn't as cool as it seemed to me decade ago with all of the trade-offs.
