Is the combat the same as 15?
Real time action combat but a better system and implementation
Just watched the NG+ video. Yea that’s disappointing as hell
They go through an area in normal new game and he’s just one shotting weak ass birds but then they show the same exact area in NG+ final fantasy mode and there are actual worthwhile enemies it seems
Entire game can’t be like that. You can’t make all of new game just a time sink so you can unlock to actual game
Kinda wish I got the digital deluxe but I know I’m not gonna open the digital soundtrack on my console more than 1 time
Watching the pre-release livestream because I'm obsessed and need help. But, some important takeaways:
The Demo was also secretly a beta that collected feedback on performance, how people were playing the game, what scenes we were skipping, if people used Active Time Lore, how we used the menus and what bugs we were running into. Yoshi-P is aware of the performance issues and assures a patch is already on its way.

Lots of other Behind the Scenes type of talk, they had a lot of fun making this game and put lots of love into it. Yoshi-P recommends English voice-over instead of Japanese because they captured the actors facial expressions and voices at the same time.

Finally they assured the beginning of the game is linear with corridors but later on it will be semi-open world and non-linear that encourages exploration. They are also considering adding custom button-binding.

Great news. Very happy to see the performance will be addressed. Really the only (somewhat minor) complaint I had.
when your collectors edition just shipped but you hated the demo

WAIT. They just confirmed a Day-0 patch will come and be around 300 MB with lots of performance fixes.

Nobody does it like them ong
It's cool seeing Ben Starr (Clive's VA) do a press tour with a bunch of different publications. He seems like a really cool dude who loves the series.
OK last update: You can pre-download the game 48 hours before launch on Thursday June 22nd at midnight local time.
So don't worry, you will be able to play it immediately at launch and don't have to wait for it to download if you bought it digitally:

lol I knew they were wyling saying No day 1 patch. Its okay to have a day 1 patch if its some minor things or things that needed more time like optimization especially with how long ago this went gold.

They were out of their minds if they thought they could release the game as is

Of course no day 1 Its day 0 patch
@redtruth apparently in the livestream thing they had today, they mentioned that one cinematic fire dodge you weren't f***ing with was due to an optional accessory
GOTY after reading the leaks
Not asking about the specifics or anything about a particular plot point or gameplay details, just a general question about the nature of the leaks
Resetera is melting down over them and dooming the game. Is it a case of that site being particularly full of 2016 era restistance libs or is there stuff that would seriously get the game knocked down a few points?
I know some people are really bad at handling dark themes in media and act like that’s a fault of the writers, so just wondering
