Dying empire? What decade do you think this is?

Square Enix is actually one of the few companies which actually does demos pretty consistently.

Although one thing they do very well is demos. Nearly all their games have demos, often quite lengthy.

None of these characters would ever use the word “fuck” because they have no idea what sex even is.

A lot of the vocal fans want FF to go back to turn based. If Elden Ring, an action RPG, is that successful it’s all the more reason for Square Enix to ignore those fans and continue down the action RPG path.

I didn’t mean that high sales means it’s good. I’m saying Square Enix is going to favour games that are mediocre, but sell lots of copies over ones which are good, but don’t sell as much.

It was poorly received by many fans.

For every successful King game, there are probably 10 that fail.

I just wish I had more time. I’d like to play this, but the idea of finding 100+ hours to get through it is a bit daunting. I also want to play Persona 5, and a ton of other JRPGs. Realistically, I don’t suppose I’m going to have the time to play them.

It doesn’t seem like the new system is really more restrictive unless you want it to be. You could just set your sims to be interested in both men and women and presumably that will be just like the old behaviour.

Also on the topic of vision and dental, that is sometimes not included in free at the point of use healthcare in other countries. In England we have to pay for those things, unless it’s an emergency. Basic dental care is subsidised though, if you can find a dentist that is taking NHS patients.

No, there were a bunch of emulated PS1 games on PS3/PSP/Vita, but none of them have been playable on PS4/5 until now.

At least if those games ever are made available you will be able to download them without buying them again. In fact it’s even possible to buy them now on PS3 or Vita at a lower price, and then download them on PS5.

2-3 hours a day would be considered unreasonable for a lot of people. It depends on your circumstances.

I remember walking in on my wife playing the Sims.

IANAL, but what would really stop him from making the show anyway?

I think the problem is there would be no way to stop someone else taking the disc and adding it to their account, creating a new copy of the game. I don’t think the discs have a unique ID on them that they could use to prevent that.

As a former Activision employee, I’m surprised it’s that low.

I think Life is Strange will remain with Square Enix. The IP didn’t come from Eidos.

Or they could just give everyone enough sick days to be able to take a day off whenever they are sick for whatever reason.
