Same. I’ve played the other games with a friend and they were always a blast.

Every one of those got confused about the title and thought it’s the new one.

I’ve played three time through Remake. First when it launched on Normal and Hard difficulty, and then again, last December in anticipation for Rebirth.

While I didn’t mind too much my first time, the game definitely has a lot of very slow sections. Like you mentioned, you are constantly forced to walk very slowly, wait for animations, etc. It really feels like Square tried to pad the game a lot.

I really liked the combat at first, but my on Hard difficulty it got terrible. I was always annoyed, that your other party members just stood around and never attacked. Rebirth fixed it a little bit, since they actually are doing stuff, just deal basically no damage and don’t get ATB charge. A few fights are also just terribly designed in my opinion, and Rebirth just doubled down here.

About things not carrying over, I was also a bit disappointed at first, that you basically have to start from scratch in Rebirth, but it wasn’t a big deal. The sequel has other, bigger problems, in my opinion, that drag it down.

The main reason I still like the game, are the characters. If not for them, the very first playthrough would have been enough.

I haven’t finished the game yet, but I really wonder what the point of Remake’s ending was, when this game doesn’t do anything with it.

My Hot Take on the game: it’s really mediocre, maybe even bad, and I don’t know how it got so much praise, when it originally launched.

Me, an adult, having tons of time and enough money to buy games.

Yeah, I usually just follow the instructions, which seems to work 99% of the time. The main problem is usually if a mod still works with the latest game version.

NVIDIA not just tried, but still doing it, and apparently soon you’ll play with these NVIDIA ACE NPCs in PUBG and a few other games.

Square was really scraping the barrel for this one. “Good graphics, that you can change!”

Changing how many NPCs could be nice, and I’m probably gonna need DLSS for upscaling. AMD and Intel users might have to wait for a mod, since there was no mention of FSR or XeSS.

What does that have to do with anything?

They’ve already said it’s all because of DLSS 4. The 5070 needs the new 4x FG to match the 4090, although I don’t know if the 4090 has the “old” 2x FG enabled, probably not.

Both figures are without DLSS, FG, whatever. Just native 4k with Path Tracing enabled, that’s why it’s so low.

The sketchy marketing is comparing a 5070 with a 4090, but that’s not what this is about.

50% improvement not enough for you?

The 4090 gets like sub 20fps without DLSS and stuff. Seems like a good improvement.

On the site with the performance graphs, Farcry and Plague Tale should be more representative, if you want to ignore FG. That’s still only two games, with first-party benchmarks, so wait for third-party anyway.

Same, but sometimes a co-op game for me as well, to play with friends.

Finished a run in Windblown.

It’s not as elegant, but you might be able to give them some Steam Gift Cards and recommend some games.

I watched the trailer and the evolution they’re going with is apparently not making an RTS anymore, but an Action Roguelike. If that’s the kind of evolution we’re talking about, I feel we’ve already stuff in a similar vein (dunno specifically about roguelike though).

What are you even talking about? Why is Epic “extracting money” but GOG is not? Do you mean if you lose your games on Epic you will buy them again on Epic? Nobody does that, and it doesn’t happen in the first place.
