    Bruh. Even as someone who's been playing XI since 2005 and been an FF fan for even longer, I can't agree with you trying to define what counts as a "real" Final Fantasy. Turn-based had its time and place and they still exist in the older titles as well as other IPs, and you're just railing against actual evolution while wanting regression to a style that's become niche over time. You don't have to like every FF but to try and delegitimize other entries because you don't enjoy them is pretty sad.

    Pretty much. FF have never had a fixed combat style and action combat is just a natural progression from the wait system that appears in every odd game. What does make FF... FF is the various iconic features such as chocobos, moogles, something crystal related, an evil empire, a dying world and a jester that ruins everything.

    Whatever contract Sony has with square probably includes the denial of other releases for 6-12 months. Other then that, any software running on PS4-PS5 should be capable of running almost natively on a decent desktop since all these machines now use same architecture.

    I'm no bruh, we agree to disagree, I do not believe that I am railing against the evolution as you say so, if anything FF was niche content from the start of the franchise and what you call niche is actually what could/would ""in my opinion (And I am not the only one who think that)"" bring back FF to its origins of gameplay with modern technology. The best of both worlds exist and atm its not what we have at all. On my behalf, what I currently see that you call "evolution" is video games industry standards, aaaaannndd I do not want that.

    Non merci.
