I’m sure it’s the “most important RPG made” for them, because they’re needing to gain back the billions they spent buying Bethesda. ;)

Yes.

I’ve got an NVME slot on my mobo, but I haven’t used it yet - one, because when I built the thing, NVME wasn’t as cheap; and two, because I’m concerned about heat with the slot being buried directly behind the GPU. It doesn’t have any of those funky “gaming mobo” heat spreaders or anything, either.

I would certainly hope that they were planning DLC/etc ahead of time. Pre-production, making sure story ideas fit in to the rest of the game, thinking about where they’ll overlap (or not) with the primary content, etc. If they’re just winging it, that’s not a very well run project.

They were included in the patches, rather than being loose DLC like for Witcher 3.

You’re not alone.

They can think Acti-Bliz & Kotick suck, and still report on a Huge Game Release that many people will buy regardless of those feelings.  For a game site to not report on a big release would be kind of silly.

I look forward to all the fanart of people trying to come up with “dark and mature” Moogle redesigns.

Hmm. Considering how much it seems to use the ultra-fast loading speed of the PS5's drive system (if I recall the original reviews correctly), I wonder if it’ll need an NVME drive on PC to work correctly.

I don’t know what FGS is thinking,

Perfect grapes aren’t dark and gritty enough. We need perfectly miserable grapes!

And then I think about what IF they actually pulled it off - so you end up with games that absolutely require the latest/greatest/most-expensive Nvidia AI card, or not only do they look worse but none of the NPCs can talk to you correctly (plus whatever else the AI is driving)? The actual gameplay experience (not just…

Myth and Myth 2 were fantasy sorta-RTS’s.

Interesting. From my side, I’d played all their previous single-player shooters on Mac (Pathways into Darkness, Marathon 1/2/3), saw Halo’s first promo from a Mac conference (then saw it disappear into being an XBox exclusive, sigh), and then played it SP on as a Mac port. And then I never played Halo 2 because I had…

The Halo maker is returning to its sci-fi series Marathon

Investigate... how a capitalist company tried to be capitalist by marketing their product to literally every single demographic that they can? Wait, I thought Repubs were supposed to be in favor of that. “Unfettered capitalism” or something similar?

“You can’t investigate him because he’s my friend, and I’m rich!

Kill it with (ice and) fire.

Whereas I noped right out of the 7R and SoP demos, because of the combat. Just didn’t enjoy it at all, nor could I get a hang of it really.

That’s a shame. Been playing since FF6 on the SNES. New Final Fantasy games have usually been the trigger for me finally getting the new gen of Playstation. But almost none of that sounds appealing. I never finished FF15, I bounced right off the 7 Remake & Stranger of Paradise demos due to not liking the action…
