    Final Fantasy 16

    If they don't have some sort of option where she at least gets to "live a life", there will be a lot of fans pissed. Pretty large number that thinks if there's any changes at all, it has to be so Aerith lives because clearly that has to be the only change that matters (I don't get that, but...

    Final Fantasy 16

    Honestly I still trust them, but I'm kind of on the "I like what they've been doing to highlight Cloud's issues for the obvious payoff coming in part 3" side of the fence...assuming what seems pretty obvious there is what they are going for (if its not, then what the fuck?). I've liked all the...

    Final Fantasy 16

    That's an interesting idea, and one I had thought of after playing through Remake, the fact Sephiroth is so attached to Cloud, maybe he is the one that actually needs to die. Not convinced that's how it'll go anymore...as for all the theories about the ending of "did she or didn't she actually...

    Final Fantasy 16

    Fits right into a theory I have about how people reacted to the ending of Rebirth. If someone was always a big "Aerith's death is the most emotional moment in gaming!" (etc, also applies to many people who came to the game later on based on the hype her death scene has gotten over the years)...

    Final Fantasy 16

    Rest of the game? All that was after was end boss fight and ending cutscenes. There's some pretty obvious stuff going on with the Rebirth ending, too, although various theories apply. Some solid vids out there like subTXT on YT (although should warn LONG vid). OG 7 was not primarily...

    NHL 2024-2025: Definitely the Leafs year

    See I'm the opposite, I think we got really great CF by those being CF. By that point of the playoffs, those 4 teams seemed like they deserved to be where they were. Other than Carolina's weird problem once they're actually in the ECF. But I'm also the type who really likes building those...

    Isn't this ironic given we had pretty good Conf Finals this year (at least, good teams in them) but both would have been 1st round match ups in a 1-8 setup?

    Agree the Eikon fights were fun, they did just get a tad ridiculous at times. The fight with Titan was fucking top tier spectacle. Bahamut in space just went a little beyond what felt natural. I don't mind cutscenes when they're telling a good story. The demo definitely helped it sell, no...

    Final Fantasy 16

    I'll defend a little more of 16, the story was actually pretty decent, just had really poor pacing in certain stages of the game. All of the stuff with kind of the "mini boss" of the story Barnabas felt a little out of order and dragged out. All of the shit up until the crazy fight with...

    Final Fantasy Tactics - The Ivalice Chronicles

    The original SNES FF6 (or FF3 as it was called for us western plebs back then) had so many broken things about it. The normal evade stat didn't work, so dodging anything was based on MBlock (magic block). Sketch ability could completely corrupt save files when it missed, and a lot of the Esper...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Meracydia seems the obvious choice. Already been talked about and foreshadowed quite a bit, related to the 6.1-6.5 storyline saving Vrtra's sister, and ties to the 13th, as well.

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Also 7.3 should tie up the DT MSQ, 7.4 and beyond will be leading us into whatever 8.0 story will be. Wonder how much info we'll get on the Key in this, or if that will be left for Y'shtola to figure out in 7.4/7.5.
