    The Gaming News Thread (for news that doesn't need a thread)

    I've been debating with myself ever since I saw the announcement and there weren't even pictures to go with it... Now with pics and Xeno 3's DLC, Xenohype is back on the menu! I had talked myself out of the trilogy box just this morning, your post brought me back to the negotiating table...

    Hell yeah, and it has the guidebook - I actually wanted to get that eventually. That final Griffith page but bigger 😢

    The Gaming News Thread (for news that doesn't need a thread)

    Re: Lost Odyssey - I think it's not a matter of if but when until I get a series X and I'll definitely look into it then. The only thing I know is that it has a hell of a transition from opening cutscene to gameplay and that apparently the written stories are really good! Re: XVI videos - oh...

    The Gaming News Thread (for news that doesn't need a thread)

    I agree with the fact that single player mainline FF has been lacking for a while now. I really liked what I've played of XIV (I finished Stormblood and played like half an hour of the patch that leads into Shadowbringers) but gameplay-wise it's still an MMO and therefore limited by default...

    XVI is gonna slap, feel free to quote me on that - the game has been in the polishing phase for a long time (it's gone gold, don't know if you guys saw that). It's clear they had a roadmap and they stuck to it. XV is a complex thing because on the one hand, the first impulse is to say "it...

    Oh lawd, I'm happy there's nothing that awakens my worst compulsive consumption behaviors on sale. I don't even know if that sentence makes sense but it's out there - I'm happy I'm not spending, is all I'm saying!

    Yeah, I bought the JP special edition when it came out, but I was still holding out hope they would've maybe included volume 40 lol Thanks!

    What Games Are You Playing?

    Yeah, there's precedent for the whole thing, too - either, get Monolithsoft involved and actually make it Switch exclusive (like Live a Live) of just re-release the whole thing with minor improvements on every platform, as you said. The chance to remake the second disk along with 2D-HD would...

    Great review. Gacha crap had an impact on Xenoblade 2 but the story resonated so deeply with me - Jin in particular, that flashback of him in the rainy alley as a conclusion just won't leave my head. I'm happy Monolithsoft have found their stride - I think by all metrics we can apply to the...

    What Games Are You Playing?

    Yeah, I can't believe they took one of the most well-regarded, important games of all time and actually made it better - I love how bold that is. I also played the original probably 15+ times but after the demo, no way I was going hardcore the first time. Normal is just fine and as you said...

    @Dai you started RE4 yet? Leon's weight caught me off guard in the demo, but it feels deliberate and I'm having a great time - I'm on my way to the church. This game drips money, it feels very, very polished. It's incredible 🤤

    Is it known already if it's CR or AL that are sleeping on Demon Slayer? Who doesn't enjoy the prospect of generating money, I need to know

    We finally got to the end of Berserk DE... Feels like it started yesterday. So, 40 and 41 are the ones missing so far, right? I'll read the whole thing again when I get my copy.

    Thanks, I actually saw a couple of clips before peacing out - I'm happy I'm not giving into the leak hype because after RE2, this could be really special!

    @Lucky_Deity Nice list of games in there! I'll definitely get Final Bar Line later on, it looks lovely. I'll also get Yakuza even if I'm not crazy about the gameplay I tried in the demo. Still, love the series and it's just a matter of time until I get it. I also enjoyed the new stuff in...

    I know precisely 0 of those series, but most look like a good time! Hoping for CEs as well.

    Yeah, I think he was in the promotional material for the dlc. Cool game and I'm excited about the implications for the second game. I played the PS4 version which really didn't run brilliantly. I've got the UE on PS5 and I wanna do it again eventually, but I just can't find the time with all...

    No brainer if you don't need to spend extra! Easier than normal souls games so far, the first boss has a second phase that can give a wrong impression of the overall difficulty - it's definitely not as hard as that, when you get to it!
