I always wonder where all these final fantasy fans who miss turn based combat are. I've never seen them

They haven’t transitioned well. 15 was clunky. I haven’t played 16, but it didn’t sell well. I think I wouldn’t mind a bit of a return to form or at least some adaptation of 12’s combat. I liked 12 a lot.

@John_Darksoul@poa.st it didnt sell well according to square enix lol. It still sold millions. They expected billions so said "low sales"

@John_Darksoul@poa.st 16 is sometimes witcher 3 and sometimes devil may cry 5. Both good games. Boss fights and music are epic as usual. Great game.

I see them on /v/ all the time. They're mostly decrepit boomers who can't handle real time combat.

@LittleTom@poa.st @teto@cawfee.club Me, if they're ashamed to be JRPG they should stop being JRPGs. Same with Pokémon
Gimme random encounters while we're at it

@teto@cawfee.club we’re playing Bravely Default, Persona, Shin Megami Tensei

@RehnSturm256@shota.house yeah I always saw bravely default as the "new old ff" but bravely second just looked too ugly for me to buy it. I liked the first one on 3ds

@RehnSturm256@shota.house @John_Darksoul@poa.st tbh theres other games for waifus. I bought ryza recently too

I don't really miss it there's plenty of other games to play. I just don't really care about FF after 10 or maybe 12, that was one fun.

@teto@cawfee.club @John_Darksoul@poa.st I couldn’t get into the first Ryza game despite her incredibly thicc thighs
then again I had come off of finishing Xenoblade Chronicles 3 and Ryza was a bit too comfy & slow for me at the time.

@Tsuki@amami.paradigm-x.tokyo I dropped 10 because I found the writing cringe



replyReply to @[email protected]
@Tsuki@amami.paradigm-x.tokyo I can deal with any gameplay if the writing is good, and I can deal with any shit story if the gameplay is good. With turn based games it better be the story that is good. Related sidenote: fuck ff8

Octopath kind of took its spot, BDII is like...some C team shit while the real guys were working on Octopath 1/2 I'd assume cause wow it looks like shit.

Yeah for story focused JRPGs the combat just had to be "good enough." If the gameplay AND the story sucks it's over.

@teto@cawfee.club @John_Darksoul@poa.st The only reason i'm even remotely interested with that game is because the battle director worked on DMC. I've seen mixed opinions on the game though so i'm not sure about it. It got released on Steam recently so maybe it will be cracked soon.

@LittleTom@poa.st @teto@cawfee.club I actually meant octopath when I said Bravely Default. I really resonated with Octopath Traveler, and only played the first Bravely Default. The sequels of the latter didn’t seem to be up to the first one’s quality in some ways. 😔
