FFXV is legitimately the most disappointing games i've ever played and one of the worst i have ever finished.
Mind you, one of the worst games i've finished, not one of the worst i've played.
But if it would have been anything but a new mainline FF, i would have dropped it before the 10 hour mark.

I really wanted to like FFXV. I liked the set up of driving around with your dudebros having adventures but i just couldn't click with the combat, it was terrible.
I think i played about 7 hours before finally giving up due to frustration.

So either they actually drop a proper Persona game, in which case I get to see console fanboys flip out, or nothing comes out, which means quite a few people managed to troll Meta quite effectively.
As someone who doesn't care about Atlus, I'll be entertained either way.

If it doesnt amount to anything...
Well if the port is P4G instead of P5 it'll better because it will no longer stuck on a dead platform.
Yeah, naked truth lies, only if you realize
Appearing in nobody's eyes, till they sterilize
Stop the guerrilla, warfare to keep it fair
Bro, change your rage to a smarter greater cause
You know the stake is high, stardom is near
Those who sympathized, you die, killer pass you by
Do not waste your time In hating flirting guys
Use your might to AIs to do justice to them all

Well, to be fair, if it's not persona it will mostly be Vanillaware so that's also a win/win situation, don't you think?So either they actually drop a proper Persona game, in which case I get to see console fanboys flip out, or nothing comes out, which means quite a few people managed to troll Meta quite effectively.

I want P5 to come to PC just to see reaction like this lol.
If it's Persona 4 Golden that may not make everyone happy, as some people will want the newer game to come, but it'll make me super happy. It's the best in the series and one of the greatest games ever made. Plus it's trapped on Vita and PSTV and deserves better - I hope everyone from PC to Switch players and all the other platforms in-between get to play it.
I wouldn't mind P4G, I bought it on Vita but never played it. Never played Persona games before and I always liked the idea of a RPG taking place in the real world.
I saw an outlet review Ys: Memories of Celceta on PS4, which isn't weird in an of itself, but the reviewer that handled it had handled the PC versions PR and code distribution back when that first launched.
They didn't disclose this in their review. At all.

This is exactly the type of post that takes me multiple attempts to read these days.
Each attempt I get part of the way and suddenly, inexplicably, get the mental image of a calf and claws.
This is my life now
PS. LOL @ the people that use Hydroalcoholic gel for Covid. This is easy mode. This shit is for my calf.

Ah, perfectly load balanced. As all production lines should be. Building the space elevator should be easy going with this:
Just a temporary design to unlock stuff, but that doesn't mean that it shouldn't run perfectly. Already looking forward to complex setups
Now excuse me, I need to go back from playing with virtual production lines to real production lines for real money. I feel a bit like a bus driver playing bus simulator after work (or before).

Trying to idle some cards and games that start dropping cards after several hours AND have many cards, those are the worst!
Satisfactory is twice as cheap on Steam compared to EGS in Russia, didn't expect that.
Who is that phoenix write anyway, some kind of Twitter influencer?
I have online friends on social media who say stuff like that too, like the amount of exclusives on their preferred platform is all that matters to them. They're good people, mind you, just a bit childish.

I'd be more intrigued by P4G than P5 actually I admit.
But I really would like a port of Catherine Full Body more than anything else from Atlus tbh

Its only 13$ here, so I bought it as card money covered it. I only played the alpha butt so far its similiar. Few changes and fluids are here.
2020 may be shit, but I didn't expect to go in a month from the usual EGS shenanigans discussion to Bloodborne, Demon's Souls and Persona coming to Steam and nobody even being surprised anymore.
Weird year.

I always feel like I'm missing out on the souls games in that I don't like hard games and I actually dislike bosses in games as a concept. I always thought about the souls games more as puzzle games than RPGs, if I want open RPG thats not what I'm going to find in souls games right?
Sure, but depending on how the rights are handled, it might be simpler and cheaper for Vanillaware to just work on the port and upload their games on Steam themselves. With Steam there's no need for a middleman. Of course, if Atlus owns or co-owns the various IPs, it's a different question.Vanillaware publisher is Atlus
If you want an open RPG in the sense of choices and consequences for major story Events and partymembers like Baldurs Gate then no, you won't really find it there
But simply going by ARPG standard's Dark Souls are a lot more RPGish and have more choice than a lot of other ARPG's, especially japanese ones.
Dark Souls games to me are action-adventure games with RPG mechanics. There are choices in the games, both relating to the world at large and the characters you can encounter along the way, so technically you can roleplay a character.
However, the interactions with other characters are limited, so it's more of a RPG-lite.
To add to above posts, the choices in Souls games mostly come from your actions, not dialogue choices. It's a RPG alright as it has stats that might help you beat the game, but it's an action & exploration game first and foremost.
Hektor Milena texhnolyze Thanks for the input!
I think for me also a RPG isn't necessarly about dialogue choices or anything specific, more about how alive the world feels and to which degree it feels to live there as a character and how free one is in what one wants to do.

The Souls world feels very much alive as in there is a ton of stuff you learn just by paying attention and looking at the surroundings. Most of the story is told through the environment. There is a fairly linear path through it but you do have opportunity to try a path, get stuck and so go back to explore a bit and a new path can open up.
Based on everything you said, I don't think the Souls games are for you. And that's all right, I don't mean it as a demeaning comment.
My free Stadia pro sub lapsed yesterday and today I found out that (presumably an error) you can get 2 more free Pro months if you go to Little Nightmares on the shop and press "restore Pro" or whatever it said. So I got 2 more Pro and cancelled it so it doesn' get renewed.
Im not even using Stadia. Only used it for Gylt and Get Packed (doesn't have any sign of releasing on other platforms yet). But I mean, free is free.
Same reason I claim all EGS freebies. I have never installed a single EGS freebie, even the ones Im interested in (those I buy on Steam anyways, like Horace and Impossible Lair). But free is free, so why not.

Yeah i wouldnt really call the Souls games an RPG so if thats what you are looking for Monooboe then maybe give them a pass.
But they are great games and you can play them with a variety of different character builds.
No, they are a metroidvana at heart and the RPG narrative elements are, at best, obscure quests that you will more often than not either miss or need a wiki to complete. If you like to soak in atmosphere and feel like an archeologist/explorer and can tolerate the tedium of some of the combat's consequences, then I think you can have fantastic a time.
I don't think that the RPG label fits those games at all, and neither does it many games toting it to be honest.
If you decide to 100% a Souls game you will absolutely experience an incredible RPG imo. Same thing with Sekiro and Bloodborne.
If you just casually do a 1 time playthrough however..then yea it will just be a hard action/adventure game.
FromSoft is that one crazy developer in the industry that hides so much of their best work behind layers and layers of cryptic/optional choices which require guides, etc. It really is what makes them the one of the best in the industry imo.

Have you played Dragons Dogma? not hard like dark souls, but still challenging and has a great world to explore with towns and caverns and equipment to use etc...
Yeah I love Dragons Dogma! Thinking about starting it a fourth time haha.

OP
I recently tried to explain to my partner, who is not into video games (she loved Monument Valley and The Witness, but those were exceptions), that people exist who lose their shit when a video game that was previously exclusive to one console gets released on another console or PC.
She asked me twice to repeat myself because she didn't get what I was even talking about. The mere concept was way too alien to her. This is only important to people devoting way too much of their very identity to a specific platform, and it's both pathetic and sad.
