EPTKind of want it on PC but I guess I'l pick it up for Xbox if they don't provide information on PC release date before it hits on consoles.
Just worried it takes couple years to come on PC and just end up being a poor port.

Of course make there to be places to explore and context to the world, but moving me from zone to zone in a car isn't really a problem. 13 had the problem that there was nothing to do but press up to move forward. Yeah, thats what I mean. Like in FF4 and FF6, when you first get to the world map, it FEELS like a huge expansive world thats ripe for the taking, but you can only really go to 1 place. Thats why FFX is a much better game in that sense, even if its just as linear. | ||

So people actually only want a convincing illusion of an open world? That doesn't change anything, you're putting different words to people's feelings but those feelings don't go anywhere and they remain valid. They want an illusion that an overworld was, right or wrong, somehow providing and the modern shoestrings are somehow not giving them. Maybe they will crack the code and figure out how to make a shoestring that feels good and open and explorable. Maybe with good NPCs and towns and stuff they can do it. Their track record is not good on that front, though. | ||

XIII was kinda fun to play, I didn't mind the linearity, the combat system and the music was cool. But the story just didn't hook me. If the story is good, I will be happy, the combat system and class system varied so often in FF, I don't really care about that. There were always enough optional quests and bosses towards the end of the game anyway, regarldess if it's open world or not. | ||

It's like... playing a game with no enviornmental textures. Its the EXACT same gameplay, but without those textures, the immersiveness is nil and thats important in an RPG. The fact theres no town, gossip, NPCs, characters, dialogue off the beaten path, is just...boring and dreadful. | ||

XIII has an interesting universe, it's just the characters are badly written and the story telling sucks. Hope those problems get fixed in XV seeing it's also Fabula Nova Crystallis mythos. | ||

Wow, I must have missed something. | ||

The whole Fal'Cie and L'cie stuff or whatever, it just didn't click for me. You had to read the book in the game to somewhat get what it was all about. The new and simpler setting about a prince, who has to reclaim the throne, already sounds a lot better to me. Let's see what they make out of it. Since they are doing an anime and a movie, they do have a lot to tell it seems. | ||

Yeah the story wasn't long enough to for any sort of solid character developments. | ||

Yeah, they pulled the plug on that during the development of other two 13 games. This game has been in development hell, but I think they completely reworked it after the last one was received so poorly. It looks like a way more focused game than any of the FF games in a while. | ||
