Oh hey

[Jas]

Yeah but the latest announced was ffxvi which fans are predicting might be a ps5 launch game.

[Ryuuko]

True it might, I may end up buying the PS5

But an FF title doesn't entice me that much.

There are a few game that might and one new game that definitely would if it's a PS5 launch. However, that game probably won't ever get a continuation again.

[Jas]

Not after ffxv

[Ryuuko]

well there were some things I liked about ffxv

overall though, I didn't like it.

[Citizen]

I'll buy XVI as long as it's not another fucking MMO or ARPG FF.

Fuck those. Square sucks at ARPGs.

[Jas]

Yeah they need to do back to their roots.

[Ryuuko]

the casual layback camping was pretty cool, but it was all men.

I mean the whole game was about men!

It made me cringe, because of it's focus.

[Ryuuko]

Yeah they need to do back to their roots.

I'd agree that deviated from the norm a bit much too, on the story as well.

[Jas]

Though square did star ocean which had lots of arpg elements and that was good. At least up through 3.

4 dropped off and 5 wasn't good.

[Ryuuko]

I didn't even bother with 5.

Star Ocean was a good series to start with.

[Citizen]

Though square did star ocean which had lots of arpg elements and that was good. At least up through 3.

4 dropped off and 5 wasn't good.

Let me rectify my error.

Square Enix sucks at ARPGs.

Square did indeed have some good ones.

[Jas]

It's that Enix.

And yeah I think I can agree with that

[Ryuuko]

Square has made some horrible games, but they've made fantastic ones too, just not lately.

[Jas]

I'll admit I liked kingdom hearts, which was squenix.

[Ryuuko]

I think they are stuck on the idea better graphics equals better game.

But it has always been and will always be better story equals better game.

Mechanics play a large role too. Graphics is after mechanics too.

Graphics is like the extra special that makes a game good, but only after the other two are already good.
