Looks like it's not worth playing even if you're into third person shooters. Didn't see much looting in the 2 hours stream I watched earlier. Maybe there's more after that, but the beginning of the demo is a 40 minute cutscene.
Sins of a Solar Empire is a great pick up for anyone who doesn't have it but likes spaceship battles. Great fleet based RTS with light 4x elements and tons of mods. I've had such a good time with the Star Wars and Star Trek mods. I want a sequel to Sins so much.
Wow, that Sony thing fucking sucked. Can't believe I stopped playing Valheim to watch this pointless shit lol.
Final Fantasy on PC when? It seems really cool
Edit - Sorry, wrong thread

I'm way less interested in Solar Ash Kingdom despite loving Hyper Light Drifter.
I'm way more interested in Deathloop.
FF7R looks great, but it's never coming to PC until it's done with episodes, is it.

welp, looks like FFVIIR isn't coming to PC until later. sigh
Considering they are putting Dirge of Cerberus stuff I say we dodged a bullet.
It can stay on PS5 or go egslusive for what I care

Make FF7R PlayStation exclusive forever in exchange for an FFT: WotL PC port.
Wow, this reads like what someone would make up to make fun of how creatively bankrupt a publisher is.
Likewise, not to mention the dagger in the backer's back with the EGS exclusive deal.
Battle Royal and FF7 are things that should not be put together

not possibly ... confirmed in the trailer
It is. Trailer on the devs twitter says in collaboration with Epic Games and only shows EGS and PS

Store says it was temporarily removed to work on "important updates", maybe a modern patch?... and in other squeenix news:
Oh god, let be a decent controller support!

they'll update them like they updated The Last Remnant
as in: consoles will get remasters, PC will get nothing
Looks like Yuffie DLC is PS5 only.
SQEX: Can you find a PS5 before my game comes out?

And I can't even be excited about Deathloop because it will require Bethesda account on Steam and I am sick of developers and publishers making me create new accounts. I don't want to give my data to every single company on this world.
confirmed and we will check for confirmation of timed exclusivity.
FF7 PC gonna be the "definitive edition" now and include the DLC, but will come out next year.
That's my guess. Sad they aren't comitting to it this year.
Also where is FFT PC???? Put like 5 devs on this and it will sell 4 million copies. Will do better than FF 7 Battle Royale almost assuredly.

Seeing the news out of state of play, that mobile VII remake looks neater than the real deal, if it wasn't episodic. Like a what if Nintendo had gotten Square Enix to remake it for Wii or something without losing the original chibi stuff and traditional more cartoony FF flair. Few things interest me, maybe that Sifu thingie if it plays good and is like, next gen God Hand caliber rather than a random indie caliber beat 'em up you'll forget about soon after launch. Knockout City looks like wannabe Splatoon-Rocket League-Ninjala type stuff that doesn't quite hit the mark despite some good ideas. Rather play Windjammers. Lots of crap, FFBR
Edit: wait this says it will have the story from everything VII related they've done in one, lol, that might make it a must play if it's not some gacha/grind or otherwise super lame/limited thing. Like taking it the complete opposite direction of the "real" remake that cuts it down to separate games. Although some backgrounds here look like they're straight out of PS1? It's confusing but probably just the low quality of the video. It generally looks pretty cool in my opinion.

That's not even far from reality! FFT along with FFTA and A2 are the best selling spinoffs in the series with roughly 5-6 millions copies, way more than FF13 sequels or other spinoffs. And yet we havent seen a Tactics game since 2007...
Speaking of Tactics after our recent mention of FFXII I actually dug into that for the first time, I'm nearing the end 50 hours or so in (off to Bahamut as soon as I level some more) and I find the aesthetic washed out from Tactics and especially Vagrant Story. It's like they tried to combine that with the FFVIII colorful sci fantasy style and it doesn't quite fit. But beyond that it's remarkably well put together visually in so many ways, expertly placed area exits that do re-create part of the next area ahead so you can always see where you're going, crazy good skyboxes that don't only do, well, the sky, but also awesome atmospheric effects like the city backgrounds and what not, amazing attention to detail everywhere, etc. Very very impressive despite stills not looking so hot with the PS2 low resolution textures (or whatever AI upscaling they used) and other limitations evident but it's pretty clearly a huge budget effort of the era with tons of attention to detail and polish in levels you rarely see. It's nuts, and then you also see that some areas have their "alternate" state like after heavy rains and floods and what not and it's even crazier. I just loved going through all the areas even if I'm not a huge fan of the gameplay still. I didn't even mind their segmentation and found it made things easier to navigate when you only had to mind your current "block" of the given area and not the whole. Although I feel like Vagrant Story had more character to its interiors still, when they weren't non descript corridors. Either because it was so impressive for its own era and hardware or because with losing that even more segmented aspect and going for full JRPG instead of dungeon crawler they increased the scale of everything and so did a bit less on the micro detail level, I dunno. Even the creature designs are somehow more colorful and flashy rather than gritty and menacing, like if you compare the dragons/wyverns in Vagrant Story with those in FFXII they're mostly different. Still beautiful in their own way of course and you gotta love many of the more special breeds and bosses, awesome designs all around. The story's not as good as the other Ivalice stuff either but it's been compelling enough and other than some prolonged maze-like dungeon areas that were tricky to get past (I hate mazes in JRPGs but it's not like it's better to have everything being a cakewalk in a straight line, I'm just saying) the pacing keeps you coming back. I like the characters too but they don't really get that much time to really get to feel for them and their motivations, you get a glimpse of it and some revelations about each of them as you play on but you don't really get enough to grow to care about them as much as you cared about characters in Tactics. Maybe it rushes to keep the pace rather than risk dwelling on themes and moods too long but it could be done better. It's not just for main characters, like the bunny race is analogus to elves but little is shown even in side quests etc., it's all very shallow I suppose.

Honestly, Triangle Strategy PC version is more probable than FFT at this point.

I'm surprised that SE isn't releasing the BR game on PC. BR games are popular in Japan and they even have 1 that's very popular there already, I'm guessing that SE wants to tap into that market and as it stands there is not really many other IPs that they have where they could do something like that and I guess that after the FFXV Comrades thing they just choose to have it be FF related.
Ever Crisis looks 10x times more appealing than the remake. And it consists of the whole FFVII series.
I just need more info on how much are they cutting. If it really covers most of the main story and it's a full premium game without mtx, I'd pay even $60 for it.

Some possible Life is Strange 3/4 information on Era, mods have verified the poster has material to support their claims:
"Hey all, heard some info down the grapevine about upcoming Life is Strange games so I figured I'd share it with you folks.
First off, Life is Strange 3 is being developed right now by Deck Nine (devs of LiS: Before the Storm.) It's being developed on Unreal Engine 4 rather than Unity. It's a full-fledged 5-episode sequel. I've heard that it's been referred to as "Life is Strange: True Colors" in development, but I'm not 100% sure if that's the final title.
The game takes place in the US, but not in the Pacific Northwest (I don't remember where for sure, but it either takes place in the Midwest or the South.) The game will be a return to a grounded, small-town setting (similar to the first game.) The main character is an Asian-American woman named Alex. The main superpower this game revolves around is the ability to read minds. Different characters will have colors surrounding them representing their emotions (hence the name True Colors.)
Music is also a really heavy focus in this game, moreso than LiS 1.
The game should be announced pretty soon. Afaik it was supposed to be announced last year, but COVID-19 must've messed things up.
There is also another Life is Strange game that I've heard is in preproduction, although I'm not 100% sure about the details on this one as it's still a long ways off. It's supposed to be a direct sequel to the first game and it'll feature the same protagonists (Max/Chloe). I haven't heard about this in months so keep in mind it might be cancelled at this point.
As for other Life Is Strange news, Life is Strange 1 is being ported to the Switch. I'm not sure if the second one and BtS will be ported as well, but I'd imagine that they'd be doing that. The ports should be announced whenever LiS 3 is announced.
If you have any questions or anything feel free to ask!
Edit: Just wanted to emphasize that I'm not sure if the fourth Life is Strange game I mentioned would canonize any ending to the first game. I just know that if it exists, it involves Max and Chloe in some way. I also edited out some info I mentioned about a possible timeskip in the fourth game because I am not certain about that. "

Why would anyone play games like this lol?
Seems like this might be similar to FFXV Pocket. Hopefully this means a Switch release down the line.
Probably want to break into the mobile market first since the player base there is huge. Not sure how the market is in Japan for mobile BRs but I do know Apex is popular there on PC+Console so it might be tough breaking in. IIRC Apex is trying to release on mobile as well so it would be better for SE to prioritise mobile to take up some of that market before Apex drops.
Wigmund is out on early access. But it's kinda weird that you start somewhere in the 3rd chapter. Not sure what are they trying to achieve here.
You've deceived us all!Bloodborne is on PC baaaaby, and I'm loving it.
Screenshot in spoilers.
The Card Game
This is the board game, not the card game.
I did the right thing and slept through state of play
Be like me
Do the right thing next time
Anyways everybody knows that the only worthwhile events is the Microsoft ones~

My bad I should have clarified some stuff up.
What I meant to say is that in general BR games are popular in Japan, in Japan there is even this one mobile only game that is very popular and even had cross promotions with various IPs like Evangelion and other popular anime stuff.
So it makes sense for SE to do that, but I also thought it would be weird not to release on PC where the genre is still popular.
Unpopular opinions but boss fights in games fucking sucks sweaty damn balls!
