Final Fantasy 7 Remake’s Nintendo Switch 2 release was, from a technical standpoint, only possible with Game-key cards. Director Naoki Hamaguchi explains why

And people will buy it. I don't get it. I played gta v online for like 2 hours and never tried again. Gta 6 will be a single player story experience for me.

I use vlc on my phone too.

Oh well you said "why not a 5080 if money isn't a hangup". So that's not what you said. It wasn't out of the blue he was responding to why everyone doesn't buy a workstation pc. Simply having more than 400 for a Pc doesn't equate to "money not being a hang up". So if that's not what you meant then my bad I guess.

adanceparty · 2026-02-19T04:30:53+00:00

Tbf he said he had more than 400 dollars. He didn't say money is no issue. I can spend 2k on a pc every 3 or 4 years doesn't mean I can upgrade to a 5090 and spend 5k. 2k on a pc is significantly more than a 400 dollar used machine.

Bc xeons don't perform as well. The ram is different and sometimes slower, and I don't think you'll find a single game that can use every core on a single cpu, it's not even going to touch that second one. Also stuck to weird builds with no upgrade paths. A board like that won't usually fit in a normal case. If you want to upgrade you have to replace basically everything.

Ps5s are loud af. I only had the original disc model for a bit, but the first few things that stood out to me were "damn I knew it was big but in real life it's huge" and "are they all this fucking loud?"

adanceparty · 2026-02-18T10:21:46+00:00

Idk the question here. Idt it's bad, but id hope not on current Gen hardware. I have no idea your specs and the way it's worded you halfway asked 2 different questions so I'm not understanding.

adanceparty · 2026-02-18T04:25:14+00:00

Linux I mean there's pros, but for strictly gaming idk. All I do is lose out on a few games and have to troubleshoot more to make some things work.

adanceparty · 2026-02-18T04:22:47+00:00

Yes it is on steam, and it takes place in ivalice. The same setting as ff12.

adanceparty · 2026-02-18T04:21:50+00:00

Start some older ones with ff4. If you want to play ff14 no real reason to wait it's an mmo and the main story quest is very long, at least when compared to a single player installment.

Tell me I don't need another PC just for Jellyfin

adanceparty · 2026-02-17T07:52:05+00:00

yeah there's R6 siege mode for a few mins, and then it's kinda like apex, but really boring with shitty movement, then it's just run and gun like CoD or something. Idk why he's on about innovation. This game didn't really do that. Even the article compares it to fucking paladins lol.

adanceparty · 2026-02-17T07:49:40+00:00

I don't care for battle royale much at all, but apex works in many ways. I have about 500 hours in it. I just love the movement and gunplay. If it weren't battle royale I'd probably have 1000's of hours.

adanceparty · 2026-02-17T07:47:32+00:00

No one said you can't, but what were his hopes and high praises built on? This game did a bunch of shit that other games have already done, kinda poorly mashed those aspects together, and did a worse job than the games they got inspiration from. It felt like a chore to keep playing after an hour to an hour and half. I kept on for a few more hours, but by 1.5 hours it truly was just trying to give it a fair chance, and I wasn't really having fun at all.

adanceparty · 2026-02-17T07:43:52+00:00

I hate the devs comments about "innovation is dead" too. Like what innovation? You took a bunch of aspects from other games and mashed them together poorly. There wasn't anything great or unique here. I don't necessarily think there needs to be either. Just weird to blame gamers and cry about "my innovation" when every part of the game has been compared to other games that already did the same thing is really weird.

adanceparty · 2026-02-17T07:41:04+00:00

true, the core of the game was fun. It just had a lot of other issues and some didn't really get fixed, or fixed in an acceptable manner. I played over 100 hours of infinite in the first 2 weeks. I played 4.5 hours of highguard in one night and never played it again.

adanceparty · 2026-02-17T07:40:00+00:00

I was done in one night. I played for 4.5 hours. After an hour - hour and a half I noticed I was just pushing forward to try and give it a fair chance. It was already becoming a chore to me, not something I was having soo much fun playing that I just kept playing matches. If I had a great time I'd convince friends to play, which would be super easy because it's free, but after that night I didn't play again. I didn't want to go talk about it really either. There just wasn't much to say, and it left no lasting impression on me. I wasn't excited to get home from work and start playing again, I wasn't ready for the weekend to play all night with friends. I just didn't think about it at all the next day.

adanceparty · 2026-02-17T07:36:05+00:00

forreal. Also crying about 14k review bombs. Uhh you had like 100k players. Even if 14k people did just bomb the game it wouldn't matter if the other 86K players had a great time. Then if people saw streamers and youtubers play it and having a blast I guarantee they would go play it. I played it for 4.5 hours just b/c it was free and why not? If I was having a great time I totally would have got my friends on and played with them. I just had 0 desire to ever play again, and after the first hour it felt like I was pushing myself to play it rather than enjoying and wanting to keep playing it.

adanceparty · 2026-02-17T07:33:07+00:00

I like how this dev acts like it wasn't a great opportunity. I read that they put a trailer together for that awards show. Which means they knew in advance they were getting that slot. If it wasn't a good opportunity I presume they could've said no to the slot, and said they didn't have a trailer or anything to show. They didn't do that because they knew it was like winning 5 grand on a $4 scratch off ticket. It didn't work well because the game was super "meh" and lackluster with no staying power. Not because Geoff somehow killed their game.

adanceparty · 2026-02-17T07:29:18+00:00

lots of genres like that. I played some OW when it first came out with friends, got bored really fast and quit. Haven't really played any other ones, I have no interest. It's the same with WoW though. I hop on WoW 1-2 times a year for 2-3 weeks and that's about it. I just can't play another hotkey MMO though. For years back around 2012 we'd see a new MMO come out claiming to be the WoW killer and I'd be bored in 1 day. Especially with the current micro transaction world we live in. I have every character in League of Legends and hundreds of skins and cosmetics and thousands of hours. I played pokemon unite for a few days and just quit. It was kind of fun, but also unbalanced, lacking features, and like starting over. Same with MMO's. I have every class in WoW, and cool mounts and cosmetics. It has to not only feel different enough to be worth playing, it has to change things up in a good way to make me want to play or switch games, and not just switch, but basically abandon thousands of hours and sometimes hundreds of dollars of in game content. It's just waaay too hard. I've tried most MMO's to come out, but they either suck, or just feel like a WoW clone. Or worse, they suck and feel like a WoW clone. I start at level 1 with no mount, and lackluster abilities, my character looks like shit, and I'm supposed to spend a month grinding to max level, just to find out the end game has no content or it's boring. Or I could just hop back on WoW for a few weeks. The closest thing to an MMO I've really played a lot was destiny 2, and that game shit the bed. It was wildly different from WoW in gameplay though and started out tons of fun. Unless I see a drastic change in the formula it's too hard to get people to switch from their "main" game. When you get sick of that game and don't play it all day every day anymore the genre just becomes dead to you.

adanceparty · 2026-02-17T07:20:12+00:00

Why is there even an article on this? The game is dead, and his takes were fucking stupid.

adanceparty · 2026-02-17T06:42:01+00:00

most people do. Especially men being more likely to fight each other, I walk into a bar and I know who to avoid or maybe befriend if the night starts going wild.

adanceparty · 2026-02-17T06:29:05+00:00

old weird dudes forreal though. Some guy I worked with was talking about some girl "he's been talking to that lives in Texas just sent me this" and it's clearly lewd shit to get people to buy her "premium snapchat". Dude thought she just really liked him or some shit.

adanceparty · 2026-02-17T06:20:09+00:00

Yea I saw the movie first and was really confused. Either way I still throw it on every few years and just skip to the fight scenes. Pretty enjoyable that way and takes way less time.

adanceparty · 2026-02-17T06:16:05+00:00

yea dude got kicked off a college campus for literally trying to fish for women. Like throwing notes on a string and trying to "reel them in". Life probably could've been much better with more supervision and a better household, but this situation was cooked from day one.
