XIII trilogy is cute but it's not the serve y'all are making it to be especially when compared to xiv the by far best game in the series.
Fevesy Posted November 20 Posted November 20 I have 16,000 hours in FF14 and felt more emotional playing FF13 trilogy than the entire FF14 story saga idk. Can't take that game seriously anymore when you kill Zodiark (the big bad baddie that I've been waiting to kill for over a decade) and then proceed to help some rabbits on the moon like you just didn't kill the sort of equivalent to a God. Plus the post Endwalker story is such a joke when they just retold FF4 story for 2 years 1 2

Which is a shitty complaint Apparently it sold much much worse than anticipated and is why all the classics got taken off PSN (they claim Sony sabotaged the game...somehow, and now hate Sony) 1
JO1s Posted November 21 Posted November 21 I think we can all agree XV is one of the worst games in the series though 1 1
Kern Posted November 21 Posted November 21 I never played any FF game and I'm about to start with X/X2 and VI on the Switch 2 1
Rigalo Posted November 21 Posted November 21 FF7R coming to sweep the VGAs and being the most talked about and praised FF in years, was 16 even nominated for anything? 1 1

Also, the game was downright depressing from beginning to end Best voice acting, right? Edited November 21 by Reginald 1

Why of course, Final Fantasy 16 has been nominated (specifically in the Game Awards) for: - Best Performance by Ben Starr as Clive Rosfield - Best RPG - Best Narrative - Most Anticipated Game And won an award for Best Score & Music, composed by Masayoshi Soken 1
poki Posted November 21 Author Posted November 21 I really do hope FF7R doesn't pull a Spider-Man 2 (went 0 for 6 in The Game Awards last year). We don't need more drama this year. 1

When this happens I'm sure my stan goggles don't help but I think it's between Astro, Metaphor, and 7R for GOTY but I'm hoping it'll snag a couple more of its noms besides that I've seen speculation that they'll wait until the last installment before they give them GOTY but it's SE so who knows if they'll stick the landing when it actually comes out Edited November 21 by Rigalo 1

Tbh not surprised because GTA games always flop on there too. We don't actually have any information on how well the steam port has sold. There was a poorly sourced article going around social media a few days ago saying it sold under 300k copies, but the website who ran it used a tweet from a rando. The only official sales information we've gotten about 16 is that it sold 3 million copies on release, paid for its production and that it underperformed Squeenix's expectations. FF7R hasn't gotten any specific sales information released at all, which should be more concerning. Regardless, People have a massive hate boner for 16 for some reason, to the point where people are actively rooting for it to fail(although gamers seem to do that a lot lately). It certainly has some weaknesses but it's also the first complete Final Fantasy release we've gotten since 12. And I personally think it's better than 12, 13 and 15. 1

Don't worry I'm a massive FF16 stan It's my favorite Happy to hear that 300k sales claim is sus, I wish we had a Billboard Hot 100 for global sales of video games every week, I'd follow that like a hawk. 2

I remember VGChartz was kind of the equivalent of that. Although they were never really all that accurate, even worse now that nobody discloses their digital sales.

LOVE being a contributing factor to the housing crisis in Eorzea! In a way me holding those plots is a form of protest/activism that they actually add instanced housing so everyone can have a house! 1
Click Clack Posted November 22 Posted November 22 doing my 2nd playthrough of 16 & i'm enjoying it more than the first i really need to buy the dlc 1
