If the little % and time gauge shown on the FF16 home screen are accurate, I'm at 45hrs and 66% progress. I'm a few hours past Titan.That's what I was talking about, and yes. Never feels like I really win anything, but more like I threw lives at it or something. Unless I win in one shot, so I try to do that.
Monster Hunter is probably the biggest "thing I should really like, but wasn't able to get into at all" out there. I tried with MH3U, MH4U, and I think even Rise and couldn't get into any of them. The lack of a lock-on totally killed them all for me. Seriously, who makes a game with Souls-style combat and doesn't give it a lock-on? All I remember from, say, MH3U was running around trying to hit small foes with a giant greatsword and constantly swinging at the air.
Also, just running around killing wildlife isn't really my jam. I liked the Hunts in FF12 and 13 because you were hunting down various menaces that were terrorizing the land. In MH it's more like "kill this large wolf and her six children who are just minding their own business in a cave somewhere" and it felt fuckin' weird.
Mainly the lock-on though, it not having that was a real "WTF" for me. But whatever, MH has its legions of fans so it was doing something right. I've heard MH World / Iceborne is the best so I'm willing to give that another try eventually.
I mean it isn't really a surprise that you fight Bahamut, considering the game seems to be all about fighting Eidolons and he's like the king of Eidolons across this whole series. I assumed he was in it since the get-go. I'm wondering if Leviathan and Asura will show up though.
I think fighting Titan might be the next phase of the game for me. Haven't played in two days, but I'll have some time tonight probably. I really like the Titan guy and wish he was playable. Game would be better in general with multiple playable eidolon-people which is what I thought it was going for at the beginning.
Anyone know about how far along the Titan fight is (when I get to it)? I think I have around 10 hours played (the PS dashboard tells you even if the game doesn't) and wondering how long I can expect this thing to be.
