| Topic | Final Fantasy VII Remake sets series record. Best selling game of April 2020 |
| The_Scarecrow 05/22/20 6:41:48 PM #1 | https://i.imgur.com/Pg5lSRb.jpg Final Fantasy VII Remake has been a huge hit for Square Enix -- particularly in the US. According to the latest NPD report -- which you can read all about through here -- the game has actually set a new franchise record. Based on first month sales, Remake is the highest selling title in series history. That's across both units sales and dollar sales. Cloud and co. take the crown from Final Fantasy XV, which launched back in 2016. http://www.pushsquare.com/news/2020/05/final_fantasy_vii_remake_us_launch_sales_are_highest_in_series_history April NPD 2020: http://www.pushsquare.com/news/2020/05/april_npd_2020_industry_achieves_new_record_high_as_coronavirus_sees_sales_soar We did it, Tifabros. --- |

| Topic | "Dark Souls needs an easy mode!!!" |
| The_Scarecrow 05/22/20 5:58:43 PM #298 | SwayM posted... Whos the one crying when its months later and you still bring it up? The first time I made a topic saying why these kids making up words for shit we already define and a bunch of CEmen like you threw a fit at me like I was the one using the word. Trying to tell me thats not what it means. And then I literally link a one of the thousand compilation vids on YouTube these kids are uploading and one of the many examples of how its being used and yall shut up real quick. My computer reset and my entire reply was lost. Definitely not typing that again. I'll give you the short version. No CEmen threw a fit at you in that topic. We all laughed at you because of the ridiculousness of your post. There's a difference. Nobody on this board take you seriously enough to engage with you and explain properly why you're wrong. I don't recall bringing this up last month unless you're talking about a different user. I do think it's humorous that you become very defensive when someone challenges you and calls out your antics. Maybe you shouldn't make those type of topics if you're sensitive and can't take the heat. Just a thought. meralonne posted... Im perfectly chill, thank you. And it is relevant based on how an easy mode is implemented, because this game has online elements that may or may not affect other players experience based on how an easy mode is implemented. As I said, it's worth talking about but reach a consensus on the original question first. I don't think anyone arguing against easy mode in Dark Souls has brought this up in this thread but correct me if I'm wrong. The most objective and arguable point against an easy mode in these games is something along the lines of budget, time, manpower, etc. Creating an easy mode would take time, money, employees and that could very well detract from the other content in the game especially if the developers cared enough to not just buff/debuff and call it a day. Some of you guys are forgetting about how everyone is different. Yes, you may switch to an easy mode and think "Wow, I don't like this at all. It takes away from the experience I know". That's fine but there are many people who are still going to enjoy the game regardless and that's what matters at the end of the day. Player choice isn't a bad thing because it allows more people to enjoy the game. You know, the reason why video games exist in the first place. If FromSoftware implemented a difficulty option at the start asking if you're an experienced player or new player, just pick the experienced player option and move on with your day. It's not a big deal. Most people aren't good at video games at all. I've had to point out how Sonic Mania had a jump button to friends. I've watched people play Smash and not know anything about how to recover or even shield despite not being new to the series. You may think "How do these people exist?". Well, they do and plenty of them want to play Souls/FromSoftware titles for whatever reason. If you guys are still curious on how an easy mode would be implemented, look at something like Jedi Fallen Order which is very similar to Sekiro for example. It's difficulty levels affects enemy aggression, incoming damage, parry times, and enemy A.I. Sekiro already has a similar mechanic called the Demon Bell that makes the game harder for people looking for a challenge. Furthermore, an alleged insider who apparently has a good reputation has mentioned that FromSoftware is considering adjusting Elden Ring's difficulty. Like it or not, they may already be making the game more accessible for a variety of players. Some people here have argued that having an easy mode is not within From's vision for the game. Judging from Sekiro itself and potentially with future titles, seems like the devs are open to the idea of giving players more options aka player choice. That's all I'm really going to say on this subject. If you disagree, that's fine. Agree to disagree. I have no interest in talking circles with anyone. This topic has almost 300 posts and neither side can form some sort of consensus or agreement. It'd be a monumental waste of time to continue further. --- |

| The_Scarecrow 05/20/20 4:26:47 PM #266 | SwayM posted... Dont tell someone to back their nonsense with any form of reasoning because you know they cannot and therefore shouldnt be arguing in a subject they know nothing about. You must not read your own topics because this is rich coming from you. The same user who made a topic complaining about harmless, popular trends that kids like then when everyone mocked you for it, you doubled down and cried. You must have not had your nap in yet, SwayM. meralonne posted... How dare I attempt to discuss a suggestion on a discussion board Chill out. All Im saying is its not relevant to the what we are discussing. The question of how an easy mode can be implemented in Dark Souls deserves its own topic because theres a lot of potential discussion there. However, by shifting focus, we are deviating from the original question. Lets talk about one thing first and when everyone reaches some sort of agreement or compromise, then we can talk about how an easy mode would be implemented. Theres something I want to point out but I need to read the entire topic again to make sure nobody has brought it up first so give me a few moments. Its a long topic with lengthy replies. --- |
| Topic | "Dark Souls needs an easy mode!!!" |
| The_Scarecrow 05/19/20 3:29:23 AM #150 | Unfair isnt really wrong. Adding an easy mode option in these types of games doesnt take away from your own personal experience so its perfectly reasonable for players to ask for the option. Yeah, the experience would probably be better if the player played through the game the way the devs intended but you have to understand its their choice to put the game on easy. Let people play the game how they want and you can play the game how you want. Asking Unfair how he would design an easy mode isnt relevant like he pointed out. Youre leading the argument in a direction that would make it easier for you to refute. Dont do that. Most people dont even finish these games and many that do cheese it in some way. Dont even kid yourselves. Plenty of people look up video guides on bosses or use cheese tactics to get an easy win. Easy mode being an option isnt too big of a deal. As long as people are enjoying themselves with the game, thats all that matters. Dont forget why we play video games in the first place. For as many people who buy and enjoy these games, there are even more who refuse to try it due to the lack of difficulty options. Ive met a lot of people who know of Souls but wont even try it because they heard its too hard and thats a shame. I think everyone with a PS4 should try Bloodborne but most of them wont make it beyond Father Gascoigne. --- |

| Topic | Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3 worth it for full price? |
| The_Scarecrow 05/18/20 9:35:33 PM #6 | Itll never go down in price. Your best bet is sale if you want the title. Its a fun game but I wouldnt have paid full price for it. In fact, I only paid $50. The expansion pass adds 13 new characters and an epilogue story thats roughly 1-2 hours long. Its only worth it if you really like the characters. It doesnt really play like the first two games but its still not too bad. Theres some nice fan service and youll see characters that you didnt even know existed in the Marvel universe which is super neat. If you have people to play the game with, its much better. I think the game is worth buying. Just not at $60. --- |

| The_Scarecrow 05/18/20 4:43:55 PM #1 | Earlier this month, I reported Nintendo isnt planning a Direct for June. As an update to that, Ill add that Nintendo isnt planning a Direct at all for now. Its telling development partners not to wait for a Direct even if they have a big announcement. https://venturebeat.com/2020/05/18/quartermann-e3-2020/ Apparently, this dude is pretty credible. Hasnt been wrong yet as far as I know. Weve known about the Direct situation but its nice to see some doubling down on the remasters and everything. Correct me if Im wrong but I believe that a new 2D Metroid game was among the leaked games coming soon. How exciting. --- |

| The_Scarecrow 05/17/20 12:38:56 PM #50 | Makeveli_lives posted... He swore plenty of times. As another black person irl, youre going to have to accept that there are a lot of us who act just like Barret. We can have black characters being angry if theres a reason for why they are angry which there is in this instance. Given what Barret has experienced with his life, it makes sense why he acts the way he does so Im not sure why youre bringing race into this. Hes not even yelling every other line like you claim. When he is yelling, theres a lot of action and fighting going on. Hes pretty chill when taking care of Marlene, interacting with the rest of Avalanche, and during downtime in the game. There are layers to his character. If Barret was constantly shouting and angry for literally no reason at all, you would be correct but thats not the case here. Context matters. --- |

| Topic | Ghost of Tsushima State of Play Topic |
| The_Scarecrow 05/14/20 5:51:18 PM #50 | I like Kurosawa mode and how nature guides you to interesting locations on the map. The Ghost style of playing was pretty neat aside from the "Fear takedown" taken straight from Arkham Knight. I won't say I didn't like the Samurai style of playing. I just couldn't get a feel for the actual combat aside from it looking hilariously easy and simple. I'll need to see a lot more of Samurai style but it didn't impress me. Going from something like Sekiro to Ghost of Tsushima gameplay wise is going to be jarring. Sekiro really nailed the style of combat this game needed. I like how the Japanese are calling it "Samurai Creed" and saying how Westerners have no idea what Japan looks like lol. --- |

I have a friend who just became a born again Christian and she sounds exactly like the guy wrote this guide if not worse.

| Topic | Nintendo is not going to make the same exact RPG as one from 20 years ago |
| The_Scarecrow 05/14/20 1:20:27 PM #51 | HylianFox posted... it's really a lose-lose situation: "they changed it, now it sucks" and "it's the same, and that sucks" are both sides of the same coin I think Nintendo could still build upon the foundation of the original two games while mixing things up enough so that it's fresh. For example, keep the unique locations, characters, charm, music, and turn based RPG battle system but add new overworld and battle system mechanics. That way, older fans are happy and newer people are intrigued enough to give it a try. So far from what we've seen with The Origami King, Nintendo seems to still want to experiment with this franchise while throwing old fans a bone. --- |

Was it the creative use of iconic Mario characters, unique locations and character designs, RPG progression and mechanics system, and party based gameplay? Nah lol, it was the paper gimmick! You have to be fucking kidding me. How hard is it to follow the formula of the first two games? How do you be this tone deaf to your audience? Is it really too much to ask for a game like the original two? Partners are supposedly back but even they look incredibly generic.Im Bomb-omb. How did we go from Admiral Bobbery to this? Ill buy the game when it comes out but my expectations will be low. At least the plot may be interesting. --- |
