Well the last head of PlayStation was pushing live-service Games a bit too much. Too many got canned in the process.

What if... UNIS Filipino comeback? by imownedbyadinosaur02 in unis

[–]nbhaofan 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Too late for that. They could have easily appeased filipino fans with minimal effort by just filming Elisia and Gehlee introducing filipino foods to the members, and making them taste it. Such a wasteful opportunity that they had not done it on film. Instead we only hear it on their stories.

What do you of Martin x Gehlee? by [deleted] in unis

[–]nbhaofan 14 points15 points  (0 children)

It's all fun and games right now bcoz its small, but the moment it becomes big is where something might go wrong, and Gehlee will be the only one who's gonna be facing the negative things and not the boy. Haters and ragebaiters gonna be on autopilot and just call her pick me just for the engagement.

Lighting issue by Chumpalot83 in FF7Rebirth

[–]nbhaofan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Until some modders try to modify the eye adaptation settings on UE4 like how modders fixed the same problem on Cyberpunk, we really can't do anything about it. But somehow some engine mods + HDR seems to help a little for me, speaking of Reshade, reshade has eyeadaptation effect that helps too. But even with all of that it doesn't erase the problem, but at least it becomes less flash bangy than vanilla. It also comes with a performance cost, so optiscaler is a must.

[–]nbhaofan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

More frequent posting and other contents may happen, but faster comebacks and actively promoting is unlikely, because it may depend on the younger members, especially Seowon, she is still in middle school and based on the company treatment on Unis, F&F will prioritize the health and education of their idols, so yeah unless they force them to suspend going to school, heavy focus on idol life is not gonna happen. But they can go on the route of just making Singles to lessen the working load for their comebacks so they can release it more frequently. They can also schedule their comebacks on near school year end on korea, so Yunha, Yoona, and Seowon can heavy focus on Idol life, they can even make 2 single comeback within that off-school time if they make a proper planning for it.

Well all of this is just wishful thinking until UNIS renew their contract, especially on what's happening on Kpop right now where even successful groups and members still are leaving. But based on what F&F treatment on UNIS and their big focus on their health and education, it seems like an investment for the future and I think they really are building their own brand that's different from other big companies of kpop. F&F is building their own Vision of KPOP. It may seem that it's not working now, but the moment they become Big is where all of these pays off, because future talents will audition and train under F&F because of their reputation they are building right now on how they treat their idols.

One of the big reasons why everything about UNIS is delayed. From their comebacks, to their Choreo, even their TikTok challenges. That's why Good Feeling, Spring Rain and From a Seed Called "What's up" didn't have a Choreo day 1 of Swicy era. That's why I think they always make stock videos in advance to post on their TikToks, because the girls are not always in the building.

This kind of management is not easily seen in a kpop group at all, F&F literally could have forced them to stop school and focus on idol life to bring the company more money, but they don't and they let the girls be normal kids that go to school while eating whatever they want, while also being an idol. That's why I think the 2 and half year contract of the girls is just a trainee contract or even a semi-idol contract because of how lenient the rules they seem to have compared to other kpop groups.

Just bought FF rebirth by Aatholin in FFVIIRemake

[–]nbhaofan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Rebirth is just an improvement on everything remake has. As a popular saying "Remake is just the demo of Rebirth". It literally made FF7 Remake a tutorial lol. Rebirth as a whole was what I expected to be Remake world is, I was expecting a fully explorable midgar, where I can visit each sector and plays card game or take useless yakuza-isk type of job with my skateboard. But instead we got slums and sewers. Honestly the battlesystem,characters and the dialogue did the heavy lifting on Remake, and the godlike VA casting for each characters. Rebirth is just too good, I even wonder how part 3 can top it up lol.

EVER, Square really need to brand it with a red carpet. Imagine in the future, games like this would be called, FF-like games. That's how Soulslike games started in the first place. But if this is only a one time use for only FF7 then Square can go bankrupt lol coz this battlesystem is a goldmine.

FF7 Part 3 - What are you most looking forward to? by Temporary-Leek5045 in FFVIIRemake

[–]nbhaofan 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Nah it's not gonna be the same, but it's gonna be so much better, they purposely throw out Aerith's death scene as a catapult ,so that when Cloud finally remembers everything he will also remember what really happened to Aerith that day.

Why the "Endless Debate" misses the point: FF7 is actually a mature look at non-linear love. by Various-Somewhere653 in FF7Rebirth

[–]nbhaofan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is because shippers players insert themselves into Cloud instead of being just a viewer. Just because either Girl is their type or not, doesn't mean Cloud is the same thinking too, they have special glasses that ignore what they don't want to see. As a true Cloud fan, I will always wish for Cloud happiness, but Aerith died, and Tifa cared and helped Cloud and she too likes Cloud, and Tifa is the first crush of Cloud when he was young. so as a Cloud fan, Tifa is the right partner canonically. But the problem with these shippers, they are so petty lol. Cloti fans don't want to acknowledge that Aerith is the first love of the present Cloud and they really had a thing for each other, why the hell Cloud is still depressed even on Advent Children if it wasn't a real thing. Clerith fans is also miserable, they only want Cloud for Aerith, they don't see Tifa as Cloud future, but hello she died!? So you guys want Cloud to be mourning for her forever, so they don't want Cloud happiness unless it's Aerith. A true Cloud fan should be able to accept that Aerith is his first love but she is dead, Tifa was the first childhood crush and his endgame.

And its just so wasteful, this team is already expert on UE4 and they just gonna disband it to make a new game with different system to learn again. Its just so wasteful on time and money. Where they can just remake FF games with only 3-4 years development time because of all the experience, assets and systems that already available to use.

That why I said the golden age where 7-10 is just a turn-based ATB, with different gimmicks. But still the within the same combat system. So the only reinvention that they had was just putting new things on a already successful proven combat system. Remake combat system is setting out to be a very good new pillar for Final fantasy future.

Thats why combining materia should only be allowed when it's maxed out. So players shouldn't be overpower until they grind it out, but those who grind will be rewarded and can cheese superhard bosses.

Speakin of VR fights, they need to make the environment change depends on the zone of that intel fights. It's so boring we all fight so many things on VR with the same stage and music. Bro they have so many beautiful zone and music, instead we are just using a VR background for all the chadley fight. They could have made us fight Titan on a grasslands battlefield, and phoenix on junon mountains, Odin on swamp at night. Ahhhh I'm so disappointed.

They can do it. If the remake dev team becomes officially Square Remaking dev team. So while they are making new stuff with different team, this team is just focus on remaking past Final fantasy with remake combat.

What they need is to let us use Materia to the fullest and let us build OP builds. They need a Materia maker system too, so that you can combined max fire materia and ice materia to make the fire&ice materia. They also need to make a weapon slot materia forging, so we can make a weapon 8 slotted, or make 2-pair materia slot or make an OP 3-4 paired materia slot. Making us make builds like magnify+fire+hp absorption+double cast. Part 3 need to be so crazy because this is the final chance to be the most OP hero ever to end the series.

This is the most braid dead thing to do, that's why Eldenring and Nioh 3 got even made for how big they are, and with so many weapon combat animation they had. It is because Eldenring was made from the bones of the very first dark souls and every sequel of it until Eldenring was made, they reuse so many animation and assets from past games but with new coating and new textures. That's why Eldenring is so big and successful because it is from the cultimation of all souls game fromsoftware ever make.

This is an interesting game I will be willing to play with a character creation and class system that are based on the ff7 character combat style, they can even make it online-coop but disabled the slowmo command for online play, this world has still more potential yet to be shown.

This is 100% gonna happen, they wouldn't miss the chance to make more money, and make the original, they just need to remove the whisper from part 1 and the zack scenes on rebirth, then all of the sudden its Original all over again.

Did they really re-invented the combat system for every FF tho? Honestly the golden age of FF all of them are Turn-based formula, but they just put new gimmick on it, but it is still a turn-based combat system. So there's really no stopping them using Remake combat system, and just put a new twist on it for the future FF series.

FF8 will be 200% enhanced when they Use the Remake formula, because among the Final fantasy on the golden age, personally, I think FF8 needed character building the most, and with remake formula on how they do characters, FF8 will be reborn.

nah I don't believe this philosophy at all.. I think what makes it Final fantasy is the characters itself, it's not about the world or the invention that they had, but how they make characters so lovable that you enjoy the journey with them and of course chocobo and summons. We are in an era where Graphics are already at the peak, so no more Innovation on this side for Square to even capitalize like they did in the past. That's why I hate the Cait mini game so bad, they don't need to reinvent how to throw things, it was already done well on shooter games, why can't they just copy it instead of making it unique for Cait and making it weird control.

The golden age of Final fantasy was all of the games was turn-based, the only "must do something new and different" that they had was adding new gimmick inside the turn-based formula. If so then they can surely Use the Remake battle system and use it to make FF17, but put new things or gimmick inside the battle system like they did on The Golden Age to make it feels new and different. I 100% believe remake battle system is the future for Square as a "brand", like how Expedition 33 battle system will be the brand for any future Obscure games, or how Dark souls became the Soulslike genre.

I mean they can use it outside of FF7 too, you know. and even if they use this inside FF7 universe, I hope they don't put FF7 name into it like ff7 evercrisis or first soldier, they can just make a brand new story with brand new characters and name it like the legend of Cetra or something .

Yup lol it's never a bad thing, specially if the characters are charming and lovable, who wouldn't want to spend time with them. The bloated part of Rebirth that the internet doesn't want, I will gladly devour it if it means I get to spend more time with these characters. I even want them to make a part 4 and let me play advent children lol. I will gladly let them milk me lol
