    if dank souls is a jrpg it is than whatever this is is a jrpg too. turn based jrpgs are a whole diff genre now and the sooner we accept it the better.

    Whenever I see your avy I see you spitting the truth I appreciate that. They still need to fix the bar at Sonora though on God and em

    that’s sick. i’ve played ff6 in such a piecemeal way, that i want to finally just play it front to back.

    i’m only looking for switch cause im traveling for work in a couple weeks and it’d be sick to have on deck (i dont have a laptop)

    While possible, Ishikawa took a backseat during the patch quest stuff which isn't too out of the norm. She was still there at the XIV writer's retreat a month or so ago. I guess we'll know if she's on XVII or not when the writer for 7.0 is revealed.

    Daichi Hiroi (6.x, Pandaemonium, Tataru’s Grand Endeavour) assumed the Lead Story Designer position after Ishikawa moved up to Senior Story Designer. I’m guessing he’ll be the lead writer for 7.0 since Ishikawa has said that she wants to leave XIV to her juniors.

    I’m interested to see how Hiroi handles 7.0 since he also assisted Matsuno on Return to Ivalice and Save the Queen.

    this is brainworms. ff's combat system has been shifting since 3, doing an arpg is a smart move. im not excusing ff because i don't feel like i have to. the truth is we havent played it; for all the s*** talking it still seems like you'll buy it day one. so why don't you at least go into the experience optimistically?

    Of course I’m gonna buy it day 1. And I’m most likely gonna enjoy it too. I put like 60-80 hours into doodoo FF15 and I’m sure 16 will be much better

    I don’t have a problem with action RPG’s. I play soulsborne, Bayo, DMC, monster Hunter, etc. I don’t have a problem with action JRPG’s. I play tales, Y’s, Nier, etc

    I don’t care if FF “evolves” the combat to make more money. But I think it’s disingenuous to act like JRPG’s don’t exist and that FF was never a JRPG so whatever it is now is no cause for concern.

    We can go from turn based to action, it’s unfortunate but it is what it is. But how did we get to a point where we don’t even have a party? Not one player controlled character outside of Clive.

    What it essentially boils down to is that FF is the video game version the fast and furious series. Yea whatever it is now sells a lot and appeals to a wide audience but we not gonna act like it’s the same type of game as before.

    I ask again: what is the defining trait of JRPGs that is unique to the genre? JRPG isn't a thing. It's a regional moniker employed by westerners to describe RPGs made in Japan. There is no unique trait to JRPGs. You mentioned how XVI has no party -- there are lots of games considered to be "JRPGs" that do not have a party system and only have a single controllable character. Why is Nier an action JRPG but not XVI?

    Of course FF isn't the same as it was before lol. It wasn't the same when we went from FF3 to FF4 either. Or FFX to FFXII. Or XIII to XV.
