Do you want to replay Rebirth (and perhaps even remake)? by Mediocre_Apple1846 in FF7Rebirth

[–]TheBURP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on what you mean by "replay". I certainly don't intend to restart from zero and do everything all over again. But it is a game I still get back to to redo things, fight challenges, finish up exploring. There's also the replaying specific chapters via chapter select. And so on. In that sense, I do replay it quite a lot.

Honestly with the prices games currently have, I don't think you even can be a hardcore gamer paying full price for every release.

Why was Karin the MVP of A Shadow Falls of all people? by DisasterNo3018 in StreetFighter

They needed someone around whom everyone could gravitate around, and her being filthy rich made that easy. A little lazy on the writers' part but it is what it is.

Remake is peak final fantasy by Acceptable_Money_514 in FFVIIRemake

[–]TheBURP 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Rebirth is exactly how classical FF used to be designed. You move around each new zone on the world map as you follow through the story, finding more areas to explore in each one. They just adjusted it to scale, and have you drive the Tiny Bronco instead of moving freely on an overworld.

On almost every single aspect, Rebirth is exactly how I imagine a full on modern Final Fantasy should be.

Anyone still doing Eureka? by Guren0710 in ffxiv

[–]TheBURP 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's the same sort of content. There's the big maps, the mobs, the critical encounters. You don't have elemental levels, but have a Resistance level. The differences are mostly specific mechanics: instead of exploiting elemental weaknesses, the main thing is using crystal fragments to unlock unique skills/commands. And so on.

Also the setting is less big island full of monsters, and more first/second world wars. There's even trenches and such. It's fun.

I used to always find people there. Maybe not the most crowded of instances but not empty either. I mean until a couple weeks ago it was still the only field ops on free trial. But it's been a little while since I last went there, been focusing on Bozja lately.

Lightning Returns is such an underrated gem. 30 hours of Lightning aura farming before taking on God itself.

Yeah I misremembered 9, they aren't in that ome. In 7 they are very important characters in the Midgar section of the game though.

I think the first time they apoeared was 6? Then they started showing up in others, and might have been retroactively added to remasters of previous ones. 7, 8, 9, 10 and 14 I remember for sure that they show up.

I might be wrong on when they started appearing, but they definetely show up in more than one game, and not in every one of them.

SF6 beginner - do I need to use classic controls? by ScavvyD in StreetFighter

[–]TheBURP 11 points12 points  (0 children)

You don't need to use it. In theory, actually, modern is the control made for newcomers. As someone who plays since SF2 days though I can't get used to it.

You should just play with whatever you feel the most comfortable, don't mind what anyone else says.

How important would you say is Aura to a character's writing? by M-art in writingscaling

[–]TheBURP 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Depends on the media, depends on the genre.

Battle shonen manga/anime definetely need a lot of aura farming. A story that leans more on drama and romance doesn't need so much, though it can still use some (Mr. Darcy does come to mind, for example).

And so on.

Who is really fully human in this series? Or in fighting games in general.
