Yes, they've taken a VERY long time with the first part of FFVIIR, but because of just how long-lived the Playstation consoles are, and the fact that a fair portion of the base game engine development for the rest of FFVIIR is done (all they really need to do is some refinements and expansions upon it) each successive part should be able to be released with only a fraction of the development time (depending on how much they expand or pad things, as you did point out). It is such an integral part of the experience, and even with the changes you described so eloquently to me, it never clicked, I never felt engaged, and more crucially, I also never get that sense of accomplishment and satisfaction out of it, I kinda really do need these days to stick with a game for some odd 60+ hours. And really, it does start off somewhat similar to a lot of JRPGs, aside from the odd fairy mechanic. It is that reliant on WKCI for the story to make any sense at all. It's not like active parrying or doging was a big deal in FFVIIR. @Razmoudah As for Marvel, well, I'm used to reading these story arcs that extend over the course of months, spread between 100s of individual isses, released across a dozen or more different series using release guides to boot, but .. that is not something that has mainstream appeal. The team is consisted of game design students in Minnesota. It was an odd experience to be honest, as I had to wonder: who is this for? I said I love Vagrant Story, and I do, and there is ALOT about this game, that you'll have to figure out for yourself, even if you read the in-game manual, that is not always really presented to you in any fair manner. People fail to realize that no one watches movies that are photorealsitic unless they are documentaries. I generally loath credit information being stored anywhere, so I either use PayPal or as with both Sony and Microsoft, I use prepaid cards from Amazon - which I gotta trust by necessity of convenience. PSN limits what you can do, e. g. in terms of automatic save-game backups, when your account is not "primary". That is tragic, consindering FVIIR is not free of padding itself, but at least the 1st couple of hours move at an engaging almost breack-neck pace. I think most people saw that, esp. I still think about LO, as one can tell. Last year Switch owners in the West were able to get their hands on a previously-unavailable RPG treasure for the first time when Square Enix put out an official localisation of Super Famicom classic Seiken Densetsu 3 from 1995, renamed Trials of Mana and part of the rather excellent Collection of Mana. If you save up most of your SP (get a few ranks in Herboloby, it's both needed for Effort AND boosts recovery from berry-type items, so it isn't much of a waste to get it to level 3 or 5 right away) you can potentially master Effort as soon as Determination becomes available (it's the last of the skills needed for the Specialty Skills that unlocks Effort), and once Effort reaches level 5 you'll never get less than your normal amount of SP per level (a risk before then, though a small one) and can potentially see more than double the SP per level. I can tell you flat out that what is in the remake is significantly better than what was in the original. If you click on one and make a purchase we may receive a small commission. That said, the music in Trials was pretty darn sweet. I have no hard data on the failure rate, put my PS4 harddrive actually corrupted causing loss of some savegames, I had not MANUALLY uploaded yet. In fact, we will soon see how all of this pans out once Disney+ starts demanding you have seen hundreds of hours of their Marvel shows to be able to really keep up with the latest movie releases. As a piece of hardware, the build quality of the X1 is superior to the PS4. Important to me is engagement and feelz. Compliance is often just a euphemism for "lack of thoroughness", at least, that is what I found at university. It was integral to really sell me on this at heart super goofy character. Which is actually translated differently for the PS3 and PS4 version than it was for the Xbox 360 version, you can thank Microsoft for most of that (part of the reason Square didn't finally acknowledge that FFVIIR was in the works until after the release of FF Type-0 HD), but its character development and presentation was weaker than previous titles, Integrity and Faithlessness makes an effort to get back to the storytelling roots. I'm still very undecided about that change. I say that as a romantic at heart. Be it going beyond 24p and the judder that comes with it, be it dropping the "Hollywood DoP" (which is why, that is my longstanding contention, so many "foreign" films have such a hard time finding a mainstream audience), doing the "proper" color-grading mowrk etc. So yeah, in that regard, it is also, as you set, really 'dissimilar' to what else is out there. Same goes for Mistwalker. Hell, even Vagrant Story is not really a "jRPG", if we are frank about it. Worth getting into 14 for those scenarios? It is a game that to properly enjoy it you have to go into it without any preconceptions, and even then it isn't really for most people. But being a friend, and having some other friends apart from her, is important for making it work long term, especially if you're trying for 'till death' long term. It builds on the game systems of The Last Hope, but without the disruptive elements being as disruptive (the side dash slow down now gives you a larger input window for a strike that either gets a damage bonus or is a guaranteed critical hit, I can't remember which without playing it again some). Interesting, but without actual usability. As for the PS5, no I don't quite see it that way. But having tried a fair number of the games, and done enough research into almost the entire rest of the PS3 jRPG library, By the by, I think you forgot to mention "Folklore". Also, don't forget that I mentioned that was the same week I first played The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess, which seriously impacted the impression Persona 3 gave me. Shinichi Tatsuke, Producer: First of all, the character growth system has changed a lot. I've seen reviews though and uncut gameplay. Then again, I don't remember any mention of Nazi-SS-vampires or Scottish Werewolves from when I heard about it before, so maybe I'm thinking of the wrong game and this one I just flat out missed completely (which is entirely possible). No one, totally out of left field! Who is to say that the PS5 will dominate next-gen? It still feels like it is trying to be an MMORPG, but at least everything works smoothly and is playable now. story wise? As for Sega, I think it was just the fact, that they couldn't support it. People hate anything that even approaches photorealsitic movie aesthetic on any level. Even if we could move beyond the Uncanny Valley, and I think we will, just looking at what can already be acomplised with machine learning, photorealism leaves no room for artistic impression. Based on what I saw in the demo, and having Charlotte and Angela learn their 1st spell in it, I'm fairly hopeful that they fixed that flaw with Angela, though now I'm worried that they've potentially introduced a new flaw to her that will make it take an outrageous number of levels to get the training points needed to learn all of her spells, as they've changed the requirements for learning hers at least, and probably most spells/abilities. That's a big middle finger to anyone, who feel in love with these games on the 360, like me. Hell, my favourite jRPGs are hardly mainstream, who besides me and 10 other people on the planet has actually played, enjoyed and finished Valkyrie Profile: Covenant of the Plume, Contact, Knights in the Knightmare and Yggdra Union - hell, most people haven't even played Resonance of Fate or Vagrant Story, despite their very-much-AAA-production-values at the time. In fact, if you've played Star Wars: The Old Republic, in terms of the base games story-telling anyhow, I'd rank it roughly equal. I loved the Turn-Based combat in those, as it cover the whole player engagement and applied equal rules for both player and NPCs. Square did a really asinine thing with the remake, as they switched from a simple RNG system for getting class-change items from ???? Sadly for us, the original target audience would be closer to the age of any kids we might have, assuming we had kids shortly out of high school, than our generation. It isn't quite a niche game, but it isn't really mainstream either. I wanted to feel it, the humor, the sadness, just the humanity of the characters if you will, and not too sound to pretentious here, but I am sorry, neither the chibi'Esque cutscenes, nor the stilted text within the artificial textboxes was doing anything for me. Actually, you don't see any exclusive titles for it by any Japanese Developer, not just the ones that do JRPGs. I haven't seen a solid reason to reverse that decision since, although that's mostly because I held off on getting a 360 until they finally fixed the cause of the Red Ring of Death. So, you might smile or you might not, but the actual "thing" presented to you, was not funny at all, and it is never clear to the player, or at least me, if that was intentional or not. They do not suffer from the same creative constraints about every other type of content does. ^^. Now, you've mentioned repeatedly that you strongly dislike the action combat of the Trials remake, have you ever played the original? Instead of Trails, I started playing Radiant Historia: Perfect Chronology on my 3DS. I alluded to quite a couple around here already: The camera is sometimes unable to deal with narrow spaces you fight in particular with bosses, leading to situations of utter confusion. And no, I did not get far into it (assuming I am not mixing it up with something else entirely, which is possible ^^). @retro_player_77 Hmm, I'm honestly not sure that is a good reason, as the original still exists. Might very well have been WKC1! I'm just saying that they can afford and definitely have some of the best software engineers working for them that literally money can buy. Are there any other examples of recent remakes of classic games you admire or looked to for inspiration when it came to updating Seiken Densetsu 3 for the 21st century? I've taken to heavily utilizing a Hit and Run approach to combat, and specifically dodge-rolling past an enemy to lure them into taking a swing and missing to create the opening for the hit, so I can get that bonus as much as possible. Which would have been enough for me to get rid of it. Like how your Weapons are Swords crafted like instruments or music notes at the grip. God of War III; but that one heavily relies on existing knowledge of previous stuff to really make any sense and give you a sense of closure. Bungie leaving is another, the aforementioned cancellation of their cooperation with Platinum Games. I will definitely have to try to get into Star Ocean. Just my thoughts though, I really loved FFVIIR. Is it possible we’ll see a new entry in the series? It's just literally bunch of 2D art pieces (which are gorgeous) shaking a bit on screen and some fire effect or whatever being thrown up the screen. I doubt I would have had any interest in a Saturn at that point no matter what they had running on it! I do think I checked up on all PS3 jRPGs, because I spend a fair amount of time actively looking for what people call "niche gems" or "cult classics" or "fan favourites", you know like the games I mentioned above, but at one point in time also: DEMON SOULS - folks are so quick to forget, or for an xbox example: Phantom Dust, which ... are the kind of games, you rarely meet people in real life that have even heard of them, basically you have to go the GameFAQ message board for that game, to talk about it. @NintendoByNature idk about your local walmart but mine won't be stocking new game releases to avoid unnecessary crowds.
