Wouldn’t Octopath Traveler 1&2 be the most recent ‘classic’ feeling FF style games?

For me isekai just makes shows that much easier to filter.  Sometimes from the title alone I know I’m safe skipping ahead to check the next title on the list.  And speaking for myself, this spring season had a bunch of great anime that I got into.  Vinland Saga, Hell’s Paradise, Skip and Loafer, Oshi No Ko, Gundam:…

I feel like you’re being a little generous in regards to the need for strategy in Final Fantasy X. The Yunalesca fight stands out because it’s one of the few where players are forced to play around with this strategy of who you let get turned into a zombie and who doesn’t.

None of those games have stuff like “1.5% critical damage to increase to donkeys”.

The thing that makes Final Fantasy different from say a TV series is that Final Fantasy has never been a consistent ‘series’ in the first place. Most of the mainline games have nothing to do with each other except for things like chocobos or airships.

Isn’t that why Square is releasing games like Octopath Traveler and Bravely Default, though?

I kind of get that is sucks that Square’s new FF games isn’t a playstyle you enjoy, but to be fair wouldn’t you want to find new games that are turnbased regardless? 

You know that the gameplay also doesn’t have any benefits, right?  It’s all about entertainment.  And for many people, getting achievements or anything else that shows off that they completed a challenge is just as important as getting loot.

So, what moderation apps are you talking about that will still be working come the api change? Without that knowledge, to me it seems like the mods protesting are all still acting in good faith here.

Except reddit has committed to providing free API access to those tools and they’re still bitching.

After Pacific Rim, I’m not sure how much general audiences would go for another mech film.  And if such a film were to go all out on the budget, then obviously this would have to do really well to even break even.

I’ve noticed for game stuff in particular searching with reddit can be preferrable.  It’s hard to find too many other places where you can look up an optimal build for a crpg, or figure out with mods might be conflicting with each other.  It’s the stackoverflow for gaming.

The issue you are talking about still comes down to how much Reddit is charging for third party api use. And the fact is Reddit does not ‘need’ people to use the official app. Reddit could either charge a reasonable fee for third party api use, or they could easily enforce ad supported apis to be used with third…

If you think this is all about people wanting Reddit to be non-profit, then you still don’t know what you’re talking about. It’s largely about mods depending on third party apis for content moderation. And even then, no one is really demanding that these apis work absolutely for free. But there is a huge gulf between…

The small minority here are largely mods that depend on third party apps that aid in moderating subreddits. It has little to do with avoiding ads and everything to do with having good tools that remain absent on the main app.

“It’s F2P” is one of the shittiest ways to defend any microtransaction, with “It’s only cosmetic” trailing slightly behind.

Unless I’m mistaken, you’re paying 15 bucks strictly for the missions.  This is a really weird way to try to defend overblown microtransactions.

When companies make a good game that delivers far more than what came before, absolutely.  In this case we are talking 3 mission packs in Overwatch 2 of all things, you really think this is an example of superior quality?

You don’t think it’s a bit much for this amount of content?  There’s so many other games or even just expansion content where you get a lot more for your money spent.
