Did I? All I said was Madoka was wack as fuck. He caught feelings and we went from there.

Here's how this started. Dreamdrop shit on Mistwalker and you responded with this

An innocent enough joke. Dreamdrop did catch feelings like you said, and if you just left it at that you'd have won.

but you didn't. lol

and now we're here. Two pages and at least 10 paragraphs of you hating on something you clearly don't know or care about in the least.

I just don't understand why you've labored away at this point for so long when it all started from a joke.

As for wathcing it, I watched 2 episodes on the suggestion of anime GAF and never looked back. I'm not down for that "you gotta watch the full thing before you hate it" crowd.

That's a cop out argument. That's like saying "You need to be really good at X game before you can dismiss it".

I'm not saying you have to watch it all to hate it. but it'd be nice to know a bit about it when you hate on it so hard. Like you've posted things that are flat out wrong(about it's popularity and influence on the medium) and still haven't stopped. You still pulling reasons to hate out of thin air to the point of just name calling. "TRITE OTAKU SHIT" lol

You the one catching feelings now bro. and I don't understand why

Is Mistwalker worth it??

A better comparison with the whole illusion of choice thing with FF would be any pre FFX title vs FFX/FFXII. No world map, but largely the same amount of freedom in terms of sightseeing/ finding easter eggs/ etc. XIII doesn't have any of that shit for the first 30 hours.

The only Musou style game I liked (if I dare use that word) was Capcom's Sengoku Basara. But as quickly as I liked them I was indifferent to them.



Never said Agito/Type 0 was a Chinese knockoff. That went over your head bruh.

And acting like there aren't levels to linear and open world. By your argument GTA is linear because to progress in the story you have to go to specific places in the order that Rockstar intends. :|

Edit: What DY said.

In GTA there's a ton of content outside of the story. In FF, what is there for the majority of the game outside of the story save grinding?

Final Fantasy 15 seems to be going in the literal opposite direction that 13 did. Looks like The Elder Final Fantasy Scrolls so far haha

Reread, I didn't call Madoka trite otaku shit. I said he thinks is the best thing since sliced bread BECAUSE it's something different in the sea of trite otaku shit.

Come on Retro, if you're going to play sideline cheerleader/insitgator, at least do an admirable job at it.

Speaking of Final Fantasy.

Been playing FFXIV quite a bit taking a bunch of screenshots (running at 2240x1400) with 4xSGGSSAA and HBAO+. Game looks soooooo good. Made a Flickr account.

Actually, I think Madoka is just well worth watching and was impactful. I think Kyousogiga is the best thing since sliced bread and is one of my all time favorite anime.

I thought Kyousogiga was decent. I liked the animation/art direction, though I don't think I finished it. I can't do anime when I'm not feeling the art direction I just can't...Madoka is one of them.

Seriously, this. It's been too long. It doesn't even matter if the game is good any more because it's been held up as the ultimate JRPG/Final Fantasy game for 8 years. When it finally comes out and it's not as good as people "remember" their favourite Final Fantasy game being, there will be oceans of tears.

EDIT: Dreamdrop, I didn't think Prime was in development that long. I just thought it looked dreadful pretty much up until release.

I totes get that. I mean, HeartCatch Precure looks fucking awful. But, once I got past that, I found one of the GOAT anime.

That being said, my personal tastes are not the same as my recommendations. I have eclectic eccentric taste with a predilection towards manic chaotic storytelling. Not everyone likes that. But I think a general audience could appreciate Madoka and that storytelling like Madoka is what the medium needs to continue being relevant in the future. It's what saves anime.

Then it's clearly the exception that proves the rule lol.

Can someone explain MMO Final Fantasy to me, it seems like it wouldn't work.

I cannot stand MMO games.

I honestly don't know the story for FFXIV very well, I find myself skipping 90% of the cutscenes. >.>

I just wanna craft man!

But the gist is you're simply an adventurer who has some connection with the crystal(s) and something about Echo that makes you immune to mental conditioning from the Primals. That's all I got for the grand story.

But other than that there are mini stories going on and yea.

Think of it as open world Monster Hunter with leveling and crafting. There is a deep story that no one pays attention to. Also, I think 14 should have been a FNC game.

I wouldn't consider it being like MH at all considering I absolutely hate MH and think the game is trash.

Think of it like WoW, with a MUCH better crafting/gathering system, world PVE, less linear progression, and a bit of Animal Crossing thrown in(residences)

If you ain't too hard for cash, give it a shot when it goes on steam sale. I copped a copy for 15 with three months paid. My statement was admittedly reductive.

What makes this not the trainwreck that DA2 was? I've been on media blackout with this game.
Click to expand...

DA2 was shitmountain right off jump

not to mention it was churned out before it even had time to marinate.

DA:I - could care less about the story at this point (though every early review says its actually really good). I'm only down because its rocking the same MP as Mass Effect 3

Yeah yeah, I'm late but I was just reading through some of the Aaliyah movie backlash. Damn people went in hard.

It was pretty obvious this movie would be straight trash but fuck lifetime. Glad to see basically everyone going in on that shit.
