Omg Sir, you are so so kind to me. Thank you for discussing my question! I have finally found you!!! I'm hoping and hoping that I was clear. You understood my question better than I could word it! 😂
you have big FF motion as the kids say. so i have a mission for you convince the ff7r English cast to come in their character cosplay for the next big onstage interview during part 3 marketing cycle
To understand Astrobot hype: It is a celebratión of other IP mascots, specially platformers and PlayStation titles. It is easy to get into and the whole family can play it. That last part is harder to achieve than anyone can think.
I don't understand the astrobot hype. I've played platformers my whole life. I've loved a lot of them, but they just don't stand up to games like Rebirth to me. I just never understood the over-hype of a game like astrobot. No matter how good a platformer is, it's still just a platformer. There's no story or character's to be attached to. The music was very cartoony and childish. I just dunno.
I'm generally the same. Astrobot is a 10/10 calibre game, but it doesn't MOVE me like a game like Rebirth does. But that's just because I value narrative so highly from my games. Astrobot is a pretty faultless experience. Its beautiful, incredibly charming, and consistently fun. That's all a lot of gamers want, and astrobot has it in spades. I'm just glad metaphor didnt win.....

I disagree, some platformers actually have engaging stories. But it also depends on what "you" the player wants out of a game. Say what you will about Sonic, but there are some good stories every now and then.
idk i loved Metaphor but If it were up to me I think id only give it narrative because its actually a full complete story. I def would have gave RPG to Rebirth and Art style to something else. Metaphor looks good but idk the anime cell shaded look is getting pretty played out thanks to other anime gacha games and the slick persona menu Styles has been a thing since 5 sooo idk just how i feel on the subject lol
Agreed on rpg and art direction. I dont really know how metaphor beat rebirth for rpg of the year, I just dont think any of its rpg elements are better. As for art direction, metaphor is fuck ugly. Aliases as all hell and every texture is so noisy (plus the constant magla particles all over the screen). Legitimately gave me a headache and hour in and I had to turn it off and come back to it another time to push through
Personally I would be happy if Zack were the centerpiece of part 3. Zack as the main character would absolutely drop a lot of jaws to the floor and would elevate the finale back to respectable sales numbers. If they stick closely to OG and backtrack on all the Whisper stuff and the new plot devices go nowhere, the finale would be kind of similar to FFXIII's part 3 that suffered heavily from backtracking and we would likely see Rebirth's sales cut in half or so.
Speaking as a Zack fan, i can't see them making him MC over Cloud, especially how much development He and Tifa are going to get and how integral tifa is story wise in the final part. I can see, however Zack being a champion of Hope through Aerith. Sephiroth wants misery and despair, Aerith and Zack will do the opposite and install hope into the world.
@GamebustersUK It's very unlikely to happen yeah that Zack will be as major as they repeatedly claim and I'm still quite cautious going into part 3. There's a chance that Zack might be back with some role that is at least better than how he was handled in Rebirth.
I don’t think they need to make Zack the centrepiece but they definitely do need to make some bigger deviations because the huge materia quests, underwater section and lifestream sequence are not enough to make up the bulk of the narrative

I love how Hamaguchi just straight up confirmed that there are multiple timelines.
Got to call them something for the sake of brevity.

A certain moustached plumber would disagree.

I think wukong winning anything was a participation trophy. I get it, but it wasn’t the best directed game.
