I agree that Clive is the most attractive FF character to date but I think that's due to how "realistic" looking he is? Like... someone *could* look like him in real life. Whereas other characters in past, you wouldn't find. You're not going to find a Cloud. You're not going to find a Tidus. Clive? Yeah you can probably spot a Clive hanging out at the beach with his messy hair lol

If I grow out my hair again I'd look just like him :wanda:

 

It was SO freaky the first time I saw him because he literally has my face :deadbanana2:

I wonder who they modeled him after. Whoever he is, is probably the same background as me (Russian / Spanish).

It's also interesting how older he is compared to the other protagonists (he's 28).

I got around to playing the demo. Wow this game is gorgeous on an OLED. :jonnycat:

Great story, voice acting, and combat so far. Zelda, you're BONES rn. :eli: This, ToTK, and Starfield for GOTY... tough battle. :gaycat6:

 

I did not like the character movement though, it feels off.

Apparently she is 20, then 21 in the sequel. 

 

Edit: Although technically she is 521 apparently :deadvision:

In FFXIII, Serah was 18, Lightning was 20.

FFXIII-2, she was fighting Caius in a world for 500 years that had no time, and in LR another 500 years passed. By the end of the series, girlie was 521, technically 1021 :skull:

FF13-2 was so extra with that 500 years story lol

DM me n00ds as proof tbh. I'm hype just because of the story, looks epic.

Exclusive Japanese PS5 plates. Hmmmm a bit on the simple side. I would have the logo much more massive so that it cuts out from the frame tbh.

You should provide some receipts :-*

Played the demo and it was really good, despite the performance being a little disappointing. Major Game of Thrones vibes.

Well, you’ve just gained a few stans from this thread I fear. Our new main pop boy for ATRL. :WAP:

same...

 

after everyone said the demo was "one of the best they ever played," everyone seems to be like yep its a good game in the full game review. where did the enthusiasm go ???

Nnn maybe I'm just used to only music scores on MC, but 88 seems really good to me dddd :deadbanana2: if this was like in the 70s then I'd question things, but it seems to be doing great. How does this compare to other jrpgs?

Deciding if I should just download the digital version and play right now or wait all day through work tomorrow to play the physical. :jonny:

Dion is an icon

The gay kissing scene is so cute and his entire arc is the best. King

i knew yoshi p would stand by the gay furries that populate ffxiv  :gaycat1:

oomf fell asleep 1hr into the game while streaming for us :deadbanana2:

I'm excited to eventually play it but it won't be anytime soon. I'm genuinely surprised they included gay content tbh. The franchise has gotten... straighter and less campy over time, imo, even with the Wall Market inclusions in FF7R. I feel like XV and especially VIIR aren't games worth replaying because they take themselves so seriously.

 

FFXVI sounds ambitious in the way that FFXII was, and will probably be as divisive, but it sounds good to ME and that's what important.
