When we get the Tifa/Aerith lesbian romance in FF7R-3 (after Cloud dies to save the Planet), which one will be the bitch and which one will be the butch?

Anyone who saw the way those two looked at each other throughout chapters 10/11/12 of FF7R knows I'm not exactly reaching here btw. Do it SE, you cowards

Aeris is definitely the man in the relationship. Need some porn parodies to verify.

super cool if it turns out true, Japan not dishonoring their ancestors with 80gb day 1 patches

Sony also paid money to keep FF16 on PS5 (6 month exclusive window minimum) but also gave engineering support to make it run better.

Game better launch with a 60 fps good render rez though.

Really weird that there’s basically nothing going on for this game so close to release. Since its a timed ps5 exclusive I get why it wasn’t mentioned yesterday, but you’d think Squenix would be doing something for it, or Sony at least. No mention of the demo or anything

demo up

i guess there isn't a real reason to play since its just the first 2 hours of the real game, but save progress carries over. good way to see if you'd like the game or not though

So in a few threads it's been brought up that gamers aren't designing games anymore. This bodes pretty well I think...

I played the demo for 30 minutes or so? Enough to get through the combat demo and a little bit after that. Setting, gameplay, graphics are all so much better than FF 15, I feel like I will 100% be buying this.

Demo was awesome. Tone is very dark in the demo sections. I loved that the dragoon seems to have been voiced by the same VA as Estinien from 14 lol

The reason is to see if you’ll like the newest dogshit combat so you don’t waste money on it like 15

Story-wise, the demo looks like it could be their best one yet, still want to see how limited you are in terms of exploring. I can get behind the combat system if there are a ton of optional content / side areas like the Final Fantasies of back in the day.

If the whole thing is on rails like I think FF15 was, no thank you. Really hope it ends up being amazing, but not gonna hold my breath.

Hell of an intro though, the ending was some dark shit.(Though I think that takes place further in the game)

Eh not saying it will be bad, but there was no indication that FFXV story was going to be as retarded as it ended up in the first 2 hours of play.

Maybe not, but they’ve got probably their strongest narrative team behind this one, so I am putting my trust in YoshiP & friends

Would be funny if we to find out that the character the DMC dev was playing had all the newbie gear on (stuff that auto dodges, etc).

We always want these games to be a 10, but even if they deliver a 9 for a hundred hours of gameplay that's miles better than the competition.

I was on the fence. Finished the demo just now, image popped up to buy it, bought it. They're leaning into the M rating. Very dark.

Combat looks awesome, going to hop into the demo later tonight. Pretty much definitely going to buy it just based on what I saw last night, though.

The only thing dumb was the phoenix / Ifrit scene, like the cinematic part was top notch, but the actual game play might as well have been a cut scene, not sure the point of aiming / shooting / dodging was.

Just hope we get a DECENT Single-player FF again for a change, FF12 was the last one I really enjoyed - even replayed the Zodiac Age and loved that too even though I was familiar with the story.
