If 7r wasn't good I probably wouldn't be buying 16...but 7r gave me hope for the franchise again so we'll see

it should be 14 that you look to to determine if 16 is going to be good or not!

Lol Elden Ring outsold XV's lifetime sales in one week huh?

XV was absolute worthless dreck but yeah 7R was good, so Nomura is at least capable of putting out something decent. Doesn't mean it's not 100 times less stressful knowing the Heavensward team is doing XVI.

Game doesn't need defending my man, it's the most successful game in the franchise's history and has 2 expansions in the top 5 highest reviewed games in the series lol.

We already won.

I bought this game twice and I hate it.

Makes me wonder how inflated these sales numbers are by the absurd price drops of the complete editions.

I still need to play through Royal and all the DLC, but I enjoyed the base game enough when it came out

Noctis still one of the best FF protagonists in the series

Yeah I don't really get this perceived dunking on considering XV is one of the best selling games in the entire series

Some people on the board, a couple months back, were calling FromSoftware games 'niche' (lmao) yet Elden Ring outsold the entire games in the FF series within 2 weeks. I literally remember quoting one user about that before Elden Ring's release.

And for the people who don't know Dark Souls III sold 10 million units which is equivalent to the best sales number for the Final Fantasy series.

Who's niche now?

eh, that guy said CoD was a niche series too, IIRC, so I'm pretty sure he's just insane

I haven't played since I completed it roughly 1 month after release. How much of a different experience would it be if I played it again today? I know there's been a shed load of updates since then but I haven't looked into it

I don't think it would drastically alter your opinion for better or worse unless your biggest gripe was that you could only play as Noctis.

Having only played the Royal version and looking back at what wasn't there originally, I think they have made a lot of QoL improvements. But they haven't altered the messy plot structure and the whole thing still feels very unfinished. The DLCs are good, IDC about Gladio's but the others are definitely worth playing. They expanded the final dungeon area a lot, too.

As Leon says, I doubt anyone will switch from hating to loving the game but every change they made is for the better.
