But the first actual game in the series I owned, enjoyed, and beat was IV (2 NA). Immediately hooked. So if you aren't feeling the original I recommend just skipping to IV --- while you slept, the world changed |

| colliding 04/20/23 7:46:13 PM #41 | trdl23 posted... I know this is more of a stand by you that MMO design is inherently predatory, but I'm curious if you'd enjoy FF14 as a single-player experience FF14 - from a pure gameplay experience as a single player game - would need a lot of work for me to enjoy it. First, at least a hundred hours of fetch quests/go talk to an NPC quests would need to be removed. Story-wise, I'm willing to believe the expansions are really good. But I will never know, because the game is simply not fun to me, since I'm not into the MMO aspect. With the Trust system I got to avoid the anxiety that I feel when I play with others, but that anxiety was replaced with a battle system that's simple to a fault. (I played Paladin though so maybe that was a bad choice). --- while you slept, the world changed |

| colliding 04/20/23 3:25:38 PM #28 | KanzarisKelshen posted... Hard disagree on that. Gran Pulse is actually probably the weakest part of 13. It's just a big wide open basin with side areas that barely interconnect and that offers no joy of navigation. Like, you know what it reminds me of? Bad MMO zone design, because that is 100% what it is. It doesn't even have the grace of being just one bit of the sidequesting like the Calm Plains in FFX, it's where like 95% of the content that isn't story in the game is. It also has the two worst superbosses in a mainline nonsequel FF, too, easily (the super Adamantoises barely even count as superbosses and Vercingetorix is an exercise in boredom and noninteractivity). agree to disagree, I guess. In all honesty one reason I think it was good is because I disliked the intense linearity of the stuff that came before it. So perhaps its only good in comparison. Also FFXIII is still the only mainline FF I've only played once, and this was when it came out, so it is extremely hazy in my mind. --- while you slept, the world changed |

| colliding 04/20/23 9:29:51 AM #15 | the only major issue I have with p5R is that it definitely is too easy if it was able to be challenging the entire way through I think it would be a fine length. but this is just a part of the persona 3 and later model. they all get way too easy at around the midpoint, so that the ends feel drawn out --- while you slept, the world changed |

| colliding 04/19/23 10:11:27 PM #10 | Sounds like it's been a few years since your vanilla p5 playthrough, so this might be fresher than playing p4 and then p4g right after. but yeah, it's long. this is generally a good thing, but I do think that p5 royal is too long by about ten hours or so. the additional story content in royal is much better than the additional content in p4g --- while you slept, the world changed |

This is what I'm talking about. I'm pretty sure sales numbers are way down in Japan compared to where they were ten, even five years ago.

You buy one of those games you get another (cheaper one) on the list for free. If you bought Octopath for $40, and you only want another Switch game, you could get FE Warriors, "Star Trek Prodigy Supernova," or the "Cobra Kai" game. My recommendation would probably be two copies of Octopath 2 in that case (assuming you haven't played / can't play Tales of Arise or Scarlet Nexus) --- while you slept, the world changed |
