      yeah maybe in some areas they have gone past their expiry date but if your into MMOs then FFXIV might be worth a try. the story is awesome (drags like dogs balls at the start tho) and then heavensward and shadowbringers kick off. stormblood was kinda meh too lol. the music isnt too bad as well. some of the primal fights have some of the best music to them.

But I'm just not interested in having to worry about if a game has issues with certain graphics cards, adding RAM if a new game needs 128GB versus past games that only needed 64Gb, etc. At least with a console, you know every game you buy is already optimized to work with the hardware.

I had the PS2, GameCube and Xbox.... then the Wii, Xbox 360 and PS3... next the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One (skipped the Wii U) and now the Nintendo Switch, Xbox Series X and PlayStation 5. I was considering the PS5 Pro as I have done mid-cycle consoles in the past, but with the latest situation surrounding Xbox and PlayStation I am actually considering not doing them anymore. I am thinking about the Nintendo Switch 2 and maybe the next SteamDeck. Sony and Microsoft have both completely zapped any interest I once had in their respective platforms - amazing to think how the current situation can actually radically change the outcome going forward.

    Their problem is that when they released final fantasy 7 remake they released it on ps4 and ps5 I think pc too which is why it had done the numbers it did...they figured to make it for next gen systems and not everyone has ps5 or can afford an upgrade yet...and not for anything rebirth looks as if it can be played on ps4...there is money to be made with a release on all consoles they should see that.

    Bought FF Rebirth and playing it on my PC's setup which has a 1440p HDR monitor. It looks like ass on performance mode, like someone smeared vaseline on the screen, disgraceful. Putting it into graphics mode looks better (still not great) but is borderline unplayable the framerate is so low. There was an article by Digital Foundry about it. Meanwhile games like Ghost of Tsushima and God of War Ragnorak look phenomenal and run at a solid 60fps. Long story short, kind of glad Square Enix lost money on this if that's the best they can do.

    I'm glad they are ditching exclusive deals with Sony since I would have bought Rebirth day 1 on PC but a ton of bad decisions on Squeenix's part is destroying the company, not as much for exclusiveness but that works as a good excuse to shareholders for them.

    No console exlusivity is not a bad thing. For people only having a PC or only one console, sure. But consoles need "system sellers". Usually, Sony would pay SE for their exclusivity and compensate them for any losses, because they did'nt release their game on all plattforms. That's a no-brainer. Btw, a console right now is about 350 to 400 bucks. What kind of PC do I get for that kind of money? I don't want to invest 2 to 3K into a pc to play games that are console ports anyway (and probably raises your electricity bill like crazy). And then you download your games off Steam and that's it. Physical copies for PC are dying out. I like to preserve my games.

      @@johnniewalker3134 Well if it was just a box with a DL code, I'd consider that digital. And I think the majority of cases are PC related anyways (e.g. Baldur's Gate 3 Deluxe Edition). Every game I want to have I can get the (real) physical copy of it on consoles.

    FF 7 remake part 1 was on PS5 and PS4, a console that sold over 100 million units and later came to PC ... FF7 part 2 and FF 16 were both exclusive to PS5 only, therefore they didn't sell well ... Publishers and developers are realizing the hard way exclusivity to one console is bullshit and costs them a lot of potential sales...

      But when ps4 came out they started charging for PSN...
      So instead just saved up for a PC and never looked back...
      That PC lasted me 14 years...
      14 years of PSN or XBOX live would have been $1400 anyways... PLUS the cost of the console... so... I'm very happy lol

    I think this is where console gamers and PC gamers split a bit. I never hear PC gamers talk about.....games. Story, gameplay. Just FPS, raytracing and graphics.I don't give a damn about any of that. I don't need 4k 500fps raytracing overdrive ultimate. I just want to experience the story lol. That's why I don't care about owning a gaming PC like that. And I love OWNING my games. I can play the 1.00 of Cyberpunk2077 or BB, and other things just cause. I don't have to worry about internet, or Steam going down, or losing access at any moment.

      maybe not hang around just on "I bought the newest pc and i get 200fps but it should do 220 what is wrong" forums. if you buy from gog you can backup your games on whatever, they don't have drm, you truly own it and consoles are going less in that direction.
      lots of pc games traditionally were way more story/lore focused than consoles, like fallout, baldurs gates and others while the console just had a watered down action versions of the games. ultima series console versions are just jokes. pc is where the modenr style
      plus on a pc you can actually play a back catalog of 40 years of games. you can today go and buy a copy of fallout 1 that you own as files that you can put on a memory stick or burn to a dvd and play it forever. but more importantly if you wanted you could be playing it in 10 minutes for 10 bucks or a pirate copy for free. there's also thriving indie publishing of adventure games if all you really want is a story. pc is where the longer more meaty story kind of gameplay originates on originally, the older consoles were always hampered by their storage mediums and ram.
      really a cheap or a hand-me-down pc is the ideal gaming platform for someone with very little money or no money.

    The reason Square Enix did exclusive is because Xbox the money is just not there
    Switch isn't powerful enough.
    This being announced a year before Switch 2 comes out
    Will mean Final Fantasy will release only on the Switch and PlayStation.
    PC port will come a year later so it PC port isn't half baked on release.

Square said that having this series be a PS5 Exclusive helped out a lot with the Development & Scale of the game. The things they Accomplished in Rebirth are breathtaking.
