My wife
>>732502305Too bad she died.
>>732502305The raped. This game is shit and you should kill yourself.
>>732502305she looks like she fucks anyone for personal gain
my wife, and yes I'm Clive
>>732502305>Her:Can we have normal sex tonight?>Me:No, now turn into the giant bird lady.
>>732502687Imagine being born a male dominant and having to turn into a bird lady in combat haha
Why don't you get one IRL instead of being parasocial with a (albeit shitty) fictional character?
>>732502305isn't your wife a slut that sleeps with everyone?
Trash game trash movie
>>732502928She has a confirmed bodycount of three, Cid, Hugo, and Barnabas.
>>732502305Best game
>>732503120She only held hands with them
>Japan doesn't even acknowledge FF16 >Japan's last good FF game was XIII meanwhile everyone in the west hates XIII Damn, Square Enix really pandering to the west after all the journos told them XIII was shit and they need to upgrade their standards to Western game design lol
>>732502758I would not be surprised if Ultima used his magic tech to make sure Garuda and Shiva only awaken in female dominants.
>>732502305Raped>>732502451RapedSeriously what the fuck is with FF16 and the women being raped? Every woman in the game gets raped.
>>732503158And her and Barnabas did that while naked? Consider her profession bro, 3 is an incredibly low number for a spy mistress.
>>732502305Why's her head look so small? She looks retarded
>>732503310birb
>>732503039
>>732503172It gets even worse because there was a recent article from a Square Enix dev, I think it was the guy who is in charge of the FF7r series, and he said the new hires at SE like FF13 the most, it's the one they grew up with and they don't like the PS1 FF games.
>>732503209But enough about your fetish headcanonNobody in FFXVI was raped.
>>732503172Western design choices can appeal to Japan and anywhere else as long as they make good games. But XVI is kind of dogshit that only panders to retards.
>>732503561Sebby is low IQFFXVI was 10/10 he's right about Rebirth and 7R though
>>732503518Benedikta was raped a lot before Cid rescued her, did you not play the game? That's why she was in love with him and so hurt when he left her. Cid was literally her saviour figure. Jill was also raped by Imran and those Iron boys, play with the Japanese language on (English subs) and when you confront Imran she will say how much she despises him because of what he did to her, to all the women and girls they captured when Clive's father died. Did you even play this fucking game? You raped piece of shit I hate you. I HATE YOU. I FUCKING HATE YOU BECAUSE OF HOW STUPID YOU FUCKING ARE, FUCK YOU!
>>732503724Where's the lore for that anon being raped?
>delusional rape fetishist meltdownevery time lol
>>732502305t. Ifrit
>>732503808His father confessed.
>>732503515makes sense. if they didnt grow up playing NES or PS1 shit why the fuck would they like them? it's just a confirmation that you FF fucks are old boomers now and that interview made you realize it
>>732502305She deserved more time. I want a re-imagined FF16 where the main characters are Ben and Cid
>>732503724is this true?
>>732502305This picture on the screen is your wife? You need to go tell that to your dad. If he isn't a pedophile, he will help and take you to a mental hospital.
>>732504306Not at all, no.
>maehiro is based. Kills women in my political got game!>gets the head chair>its dogshitLoooooool. Good music ,graphics,fightd.Dogshit world building and writing. Kys
>>732503518Benedikta got raped and was rescued by Cidolfus. Jill got raped by Ironbloods.This game for your western audience. Enjoy your cuck fetish because thats whats popular from game of thrones. And other retarded grimdorp cuck fetish "fantasy"
>>732504306Yes, all of it. It's covered in the game and in the book companion. Along with how they censored the rape of Jill in the English version but kept it in the Japanese version. If you play in English they keep it obscure where she might have been or might have simply been abused/ tortured. Watch this video.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lK5okdsyE9U
>>732504635>>732505019Not true at all. Play the game and read the supplementary material. Nobody was raped in any language. Period.
>>732505150>Can't read basic English>Ignores the evidence in front of his eyes and simply repeats false statements again and again hoping to wear down people presenting actual evidenceESLs make this website an absolute shithole. You are a brown cunt, I bet you're Brazilian. You type like one.

>>732505150Some schizo is trying to force a rape meme. It is best to just ignore him.
>>732505975It's the /vrt/ schizo.
>>732505150You must be the dumbest gorilla on this entire board. Terry Davis had many words to describe what you are.
>>732502305Seeing Benedikta made me realize that rarely there's been a seductress or a femme fatale in gaming who seduces the protagonist or other characters because they genuinely want to be with that person.
>>732505975>Some schizo is trying to force a rape meme. It is best to just ignore him.>Square Enix parrots drivel like game of Thrones known for rape and more rape >Game has female characters that get raped This is too much for YoshitPiss golem brains to figure out.
>>732506604It's literally in this video, it explains how in the Japanese version they explicitly explain how Jill was raped but it was censored in the English version.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lK5okdsyE9U

>>732507568>Why did Expedition 33 outsell YoshitPiss 16.Exp33 not only outselling FF16 but being a complete love letter to the PS1 era FF games, and being GOTY on top of everything, only costing less than $10million to make whereas FF16 cost anywhere from $80million - $250million to make with hundreds and hundreds of staff, (There is an interview story from Naoki Yoshida detailing how he was on a conference call with 80 devs talking about how to place a bed in a cutscene).SE are so bloated, they're like a rotten walking corpse. They don't know how done they truly are.
XVI was chock full of nothingburger characters. None of them made any sense. They were just so flatly written.
>>732507519>I am not surprised that Barry is actually the one attempting to force a rape meme.Here is something funny:You cannot discuss the game.

You're a liar.
>>732502305>>732502451Why do the girls in this game look so weeeeeiiiiirrrrrd, the models look unfinished.
>>732503209But they enjoyed it, yes? From 0 to 10, how much?

>>732509745>because Ironbloods look at dominants/bearers as though they have giga-aids,Where does it say that. Which Harpocrates entry.
>>732510380>I don't understand how you can play a game with slavery as a main theme and say that nobody was rapedYoshitPiss golem brain is incredibly difficult to describe.
>>732510294I'm not up to date on my Barry lore, but I always found it peculiar that he was so unimaginably obsessive with FF15I played FF15, I didn't even hate it, it was fine, but this dude spends a truly mystifying amount of time shilling it and shitting on anything else Square makes for the 15th entry in a series that's over 3 decades old and has held a sincerely personal vendetta on Yoshida and Nomura, two Square executives that pretty much had nothing to do with 15 or how it turned out
>>732503039>bunch of absolute faggots dislike gameguess it makes sense why i liked it
>>732502305I just beat this game, I quite liked it right up until I did that.That ending was dogshit.
>>732509567>Girldorks are the best.True. Jill and Clive are a great couple.
>>732510702You liked it because the slavery narrative reminds you of whose boot you suck on.
>>732510569>two Square executives that pretty much had nothing to do with 15 or how it turned outWell, XV exists because Nomura (one way or another) failed to make Versus XIII. No idea how Yoshida factors into it though. And there's some people from the Luminous team on Rebirth, so it apparently gets a pass for that reason despite having worse sales than XVI. Forspoken was also made by Luminous, so it gets a pass as well.
XVI is the best one
>>732512038I can't agree.
>>732505150eto... we admired game of thronesu... they were raped anon-san...

This game has too many cutscenes between gameplay.

Uggo. This game has no attractive girls. No wonder it flopped.
>>732514092How are you so confidently wrong?
>>732514092All the girls are attractive though. The only one that's not very attractive is Jill. It's kinda like VII where the canon love interest gets completely mogged by every single other girl, including Clive's mom.
>>732504368And what is he going to do if he IS a pedophile?
>>732503417That hands cut off scene was a shock. Entertaining character.
>>732514184She's mid
>>732502305She should've been a main heroine, one of the only characters in this game that doesn't bore me to sleep
>>732514223>Entertaining characterThat cannot be your actual assessment of the man who literally does nothing but pine for a whore who never even liked him
>>732514307Yes.
>>732514223He certainly made me laugh.
>>732509745>historically accurate, literally the most common thing during war is raping womenIt's not just historically accurate. It still goes on to this day. The Turkish army fought against the Kurds in Northern Syria a couple of years ago, and there's an entire Kurdish unit called the YPJ that is made up of women, or majority women. They of course got completely crushed by the Turks, and some recorded themselves raping the Kurdish women fighters before killing them. Not videos you can find easily now but they used to be posted to /k/ /pol/ /gif/ and other gore type websites. It's brutal as fuck, it's the main reason personally I'm so against my own country sending women to fight. It's so fucking retarded.
>>732507968>>732512694Uh-oh schizo melty alert. Your bot malfunctioned?
>>732514184they're cute but they're also kind of boring
>>732514573Just report it. Maybe it'll be an IP ban this time showing the thread's just him samefagging.
XVI is easily the best FF since at least XII
>>732515249>XVI is the only good FF since X-2ftfy my brother
>>732515249Based and true
>>732514639every character in ff16 does exactly what you'd expect at all times, it has the opposite problem those "lets subvert everything" games have. Jill especially is the most boring main girl ever, she has no fucking sass or anything. she doesn't need to be a girlboss but at least let her go crazy for revenge against the chuds who raped her or something
>>732514806No, Jill, now is not the time for more sex
>xvi thread>sperging about made up enemiesThis game must be extremely boring and forgettable.
>>732515249Technically true but not necessarily a compliment
The least ambitious Final Fantasy...
>>732515249>the best FF in 20 yearsFucking grim...
>>732514543Our beautiful tradwife heroine JillianHow she makes girlboss stans seethe
>>732515462Or that, yeah. It's the best one since at least XII though. Can go lower depending on taste.
After playing the game last year when I upgraded my PC I personally found the hate for it to be a bit overblown. Clive is one of the best protagonists in the entire series.
>>732515249SoP is a better game by every single metric.
>>732515843... except quality, sales, story, gameplay... Another certified Nomura flop I'm afraid
>>732515831>I personally found the hate for it to be a bit overblownIt has the same 80% score on Steam as Rebirth. It has a higher metacritic user score than VII Remake (the original release, not Intergrade). It's pretty well received. The hate is just the same circle of terminally online autists over and over again.
>>732515548It's only ever a literal shitskin from /ffg/ who comes over here now to suck this game off. He'll likely go back there as he often does and say I'm his "Fatherless" boogeyman seething.
>>732502305OUR wife.
>>732515831>I personally found the hate for it to be a bit overblownI agree but it probably doesn't help that it starts off on such a strong note and ends on a weaker one, leaving some things to be desired. It's still a solid game overall.
>>732512694Imagine being a Janny and banning the guy who calls out a schizo, instead of banning the actual schizo that constantly insults game developers like Yoshi-P as "Yoshitpiss". Shake my head.
>>732503417>attempts to use eating utensils with unarticulated prostheticsHe set himself up for failure.
Why is every FF16 thread just the same couple of schizos samefagging? Are they that desperate for a bump limit thread?
>>732515249This is the equivalent of your dad saying that he fucked your mom.
>>732515249Dungeons of Antiqua 2 clears.
>>732516191What the fuck was he supposed to do? He can't even eat, how is he supposed to go on rule as a king if he can't even eat. It was over for him.
>>732515249>the state of final fantasy is such that people will be satisfied with gacha tier gameplay and a gay half baked games of thrones knock off if you throw a chocobo in itgrim
>>732514184Everyone in FF16 is attractive, but Annabella and Benedikta are some of the hottest video game characters ever created.
>>732515548Barry is a fucking legend. He single handedly cost SE millions in damages with his shitposting.>countless lost sales from metacritic review bombing>countless lost sales from getting everyone to tag XVI as LGBTQ+, which it deserved>se's biggest stock holder is using his reviews to strong arm se back to making good gamesIt's hard to not talk about him.
>>732516737Yeah, XVI has easily some of the hottest women in Final Fantasy, bar none.
>>732516737Annabella is the biggest bitch in gaming holy hell
>>732516778The fact that bary was able to influence actual investors is pretty fucking kino
>>732516637>xvi was supposed to be square's elden ringohnononononono
Game isn't good enough.
>>732516297Based.
>>732503561The timeskip was admittedly unnecessary. Instead of 5 years it could simply be months. Another unnecessary thing was the fag shit. Nothing would have changed by removing it, or making the forbidden romance heterosexual. A prince and a lowly soldier having a romantic affair is already scandalous enough. Making them gay on top of that was pointless pandering
>>732516902Hottest women AND men. Give credit where it's due, anon. Clive, Cid, Dion, and Barnabas were handsome gigachads, while Sleipnir (who was literally just a gender-bent Jill) and (late-game) Joshua were A1 pretty boys.I don't get how this game wasn't more popular with 4chan. It's a high-fantasy epic comprised mostly of beautiful white people. It's the cure for woke fatigue yet it still flopped.
Why did they kill the best character so early?
>>732516778Which imbecile wrote this nonsense? Music in FFXVI is absolutely peak. FFXVI easily has the best soundtrack since FF7.Also, nobody wants turn-based games anymore either. Not even the Japanese. The only exception being pixel games (for nostalgia fags).
>>732517547The game design was casualized fucking garbage. Maybe instead of pretending that uber pretty people are all that important, they could have put a compelling game mechanic inside the 60 hour runtime. It's like they saw FFXIII's mistakes and said "now watch this"
>>732504227>I want a re-imagined FF16 where the main characters are Ben and CidThe Time Jannies will fix it. Trust the plan
>>732517547>I don't get how this game wasn't more popular with 4chan.There is a small handful of extremely dedicated posters who have been shitposting about Yoshida every single day since well before XVI was even in the lead up to its release. It's not about the game to them. Really, all Final Fantasy related discussion on this website is poisoned in some way, but the discussion of the Final Fantasy games related to Yoshida is poisoned the most. It's gonna be like 10-20 years before there can be any actual discussion of Final Fantasy games on this website, and maybe not even then.
>>732517547Probably because the shilling for it was so obnoxious they had to remove the IP counter because every thread was pointing out how a bump limit thread had 20 unique IPs with seemingly hundreds of people interested in the game.Also it has those fags in the game and isn't an RPG.
>>732518021Anon, the IP counter was removed March 11th, 2024. XVI release June 2023. However, VII Rebirth released on February 29th, 2024, so if you're referring to Rebirth threads, you might be on to something.
Barry won.
>>732517689I'm guessing you expected more from the game's mechanics because you're a hack n' slash aficionado? >>732517834I'm not a Final Fantasy die-hard, so I'm not sure what those anons have against Yoshi-P, but that sounds tiresome. >>732518021>those fagsDion and Clarence share like three scenes together, and they only kiss in one. Dion is like the most badass character in the game, too. He's the gold-standard for unobnoxious queer characters in bideo gaems.
>>73251819815 truly is the best game in the series
>>732518170
>>732518198XV managed to have deeper combat despite using only 1 button.
>>732517547FFXVI didn't flop, it just underperformed. The reason being that it didn't have enough RPG elements, combat isn't party-based, the world was too mmo-like and some of the side content was absolute garbage tier. It had the great cutscenes, story, characters and music, but that was not enough.Despite it's faults, FFXVI is still a very good game and definitely worth a playthrough.
>>732518936I'm just telling you the actual order of events, anon. But your Steam screenshot is also applicable to Rebirth, and Rebirth also fits the IP removal timeline more accurately, so I'll go ahead and choose to believe that you realized your mistake.

>>732518198Lowest bar of all bars.
Just passing by to say FFXVI is dogshit incarnate and Yoshikek is a hack.
>>732519975Personally, I don't like Zelda anymore and BotW isn't for me. That just means I'm not a Zelda fan anymore. If XVI and/or Remake/Rebirth or even XV or XIII (or all of them) aren't your cup of tea, then you're not a fan anymore, and that's okay. If you obsess about something that you no longer longer like though, then you're just a "schizo". I don't spend my time shitting up BotW threads just because I don't like Zelda anymore. It's not normal to do things like that.
>>732520105That 16 flopped and no one cares about it aside from a small handful of copers like you? Bleak.
It must suck that the only defense for this game is that Barry bodied it which is why everyone hates it and it flopped.
>>732520273Im not obsessed you incredible fucking retard, are we going to trade places as a fanbase in your mind if square pulls their head out of their ass after getting flogged by E33, or were you just a passerby that enjoyed a disgusting shallow action game with a coat of paintkill yourself, sincerely
>>732520310No, that's not what I said and that's also not what happened.Rebirth sold fewer copies than XVI, btw
>>732520195Cool
>>732520003You forgot the biggest sin. Level scaling. Why even include damage numbers and level ups if everything is just going to scale up anyway. Luckily this shit flopped so hard they will never attempt anything like it again.
>>732519993Barry and his sidekick Jimbo are severely mentally ill, but I mean, who cares? Let them bump the thread, if they want to. This will be the first FFXVI thread to reach the bump limit in quite some time.
>>732520195>>732520438Are people finally coming around that FF9 is in fact one of the best FF games?
>>732502305Each time I see pictures of this bitch, all I ever see is Zidane.
>>732520403>Im not obsessed you incredible fucking retardIt sounds like you are an obsessed hater who does not like Final Fantasy and has not liked Final Fantasy for a long time. >if square pulls their head out of their ass after getting flogged by E33E33 is nothing like Final Fantasy. JRPG does not inherently = Final Fantasy. It's more Persona than Final Fantasy. Final Fantasy just isn't for you anymore, and that's okay. >or were you just a passerby that enjoyed a disgusting shallow action game with a coat of paintI have been playing FF since FFI.>kill yourself, sincerelyYou are definitely an obsessed hater if this is your response to talking about video games.
>>732502305Your wife is dead, Kupka
>>732520552its my response to interacting with you, you knuckle dragging ape
>>732520496That and I just can't get over how the magic system in FF16 basically doesn't exist. It's Eikon powers on a cool down like a fucking MMO and that's it. No Blue magic, no Black magic, no White magic, nothing... fucking nothing. Who the fuck greenlit this game and called it a Final Fantasy game?
>>732520521I've been on a FF binge for the ones I hadn't played for a few years now and really enjoyed it.
>>732514329I think he's quite entertaining because he's a retardhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4lIMJtGk-jA
>>732520625Cooldown-based combat is based and we always need more games with it
>>732520595If you don't like Final Fantasy anymore and have no liked Final Fantasy in quite a long time, perhaps it's time for you to realize that you aren't a Final Fantasy fan, you are a hater/schizo. It doesn't have to be this way. When you stop liking a series, you can just stop going to all the threads about it. It's really easy. It's actually easier to not go to threads of things you hate and not shitpost about them. Frees up your time too.
>>732520521>finallyIt has always been one of the best.
>>732520521My favorite since I played it, but yes it has been gaining ground more than almost every other title recently.Even outperforming the original FF7 the last few years.
>>732520412>M-My flop did better than other flop!Is that why yours doesn't have a Switch port yet? Damn. 16's so damn good not even tendies are allowed to play it. kek

>>732520696go to reddit if you want an insulated hugbox of discussion you stupid faggot
>>732520716The real answer is that it's not on Unreal, but you aren't interested in a real answer, you're interested in shitposting.
>>732520438I want to play FFIX so bad, because I have never played it, but I got stuck on Final Fantasy V during my series playthrough. It just sucks.Was I spoiled by Final Fantasy IV, which is really fucking good, or is it really just that lame? Final Fantasy II is considered to be one of the worst in the series, but I actually really enjoyed it, unlike FFV.
>>732515831The game has legitimate flaws, but a lot of the hate typically comes from dipshits pushing some agenda

>>732520780I'm just telling you that you're not a fan, you're a hater and/or schizo. It's just the truth. If someone spends hours in threads for games and series they hate and haven't liked in a long time, they're not a fan, they're a schizo.

>>732520881the only way you could even dream to defend your position is to invent a made up scenario, youre just a worthless retard
>>732520825>FFV is worse than II and IV
>>732520521It has always been ranked pretty high.
>>732520825FFV is a hit or miss for many. I don't think it is all that great either. Personally, I would only rate it slightly above FFII.
>>7325208255's plot is pretty basic but the gameplay makes up for it
>>732520521Always has been
Gameplay was boring but the story was decent enough until Cid dies. Game just completely goes to shit after that. Titan Lost was a beacon of a cool game in a sea of bog standard dark fantasy.
>>732520881>If someone spends hours in threads for games and series they hate and haven't liked in a long time, they're not a fan, they're a schizo.As opposed to you defending 16 and Yoshi-P from criticism? That's parasocial behavior which isn't at all healthy. You probably don't even own the game.
>>732520847You lost and got raped.
>>732521107Bro your bahamut?
>>732521069 Based list overall, though I'd swap XII and X. XII's political plot and gameplay depth make it a solid A-tier, while X is overrated outside of its presentation and music. Also FFV deserves more love-job system is kino even if the story's light.
>>732520981>>732520987Look, just because I get incredibly upset at any sight of criticism of Yoshida, go on thread-long meltdowns if people get too frisky about Yoshida (or any Yoshida-related project), scour the website for any negative mention of Yoshida and create very in-depth profiling of any Yoshida detractor to prove it's a vast conspiracy against him led by One Person, that makes me a cultist? This is why no one likes you, shitposters.
>>732520496Wait this game legit has level scaling? I just dropped 8 for the same reason. Guess I'm stopping my series playthrough at 15.
>>732521313I just don't care for XII's world or story at all. I found it to be completely unmemorable and I've played through it twice. I also absolutely loath the license board
>>732521402zodiac age makes the license board kino though
>>732502305Very niceHow much?
>>732519993I took half a year off and they're still at it
>>732521232Didn't like Bahamut guy being gay for no reason and didn't like fusing with Joshua for one fight just to get covered in weird feathers. Probably still my second favorite Eikon fight but it's not as stupid as Titan Lost where you fight a dude who just had a scene where he throws a temper tantrum because of his metal hands making it hard to eat or chomped down on a magic crack rock because his dead whore girlfriend convinced him to. Bahamut felt like normal FF spectacle. Titan Lost with its vocal music and tentacles felt like Sonic Adventure 2.
>>732521463Zodiac age is what I played. No amount of faux-job system nonsense is gonna make me like a system where I need a license to equip the armour I just found
>>732502305why did clive's game flopped badly?
>>732521361Its level scaling is far worse than VIII. XVI is on rails from start to finish. The devs absolutely can not stand for you to go slightly off the path of their intended vision.
>>7325215563 mil copies sold.
>>732521539Dion is based though, regardless of his homosexuality. I get what you mean though, the scene of Ifrit scrambling to get to Titan was retarded in just the right way
>>732521556Wasn't turn based.
>>732521069I'd move a few things around but overall pretty solid ranking
Are the pixel remasters the best way to play V and VI?
Is Strangers of Paradise alive enough to play co-op? Might get that next.
>>732521672For those two "best" is highly subjective, but they are serviceable versions.For V I'd say either go translated SNES, GBA, or PRFor VI go SNES or PRThe only versions that you should avoid at all costs are the old PC/mobile ports (delisted anyway) and the PS1 ports
>take a year off /v/>come back>they're still calling lgbt based to defend XVIgrim
>>732521865I like the PS1 port of 2 as it lets you dual wield blood swords
>>732521883What am I supposed to be mad about?
>>732521785its dead as fuck like granblue on pc
>>732521361>Wait this game legit has level scaling?Yes. It's made by the mmo devs.The same devs who level you down and lock you out of skills if you want to rerun old content.They are scared to death of players having fun.
>>732521883Honestly now, if you get this offended by a single gay kiss, then you are most likely a repressed homosexual, Barry.
>>732514184You have to be genuinely retarded to think Jill is not attractive. The only girls that are not attractive are mostly side character NPCs meant to look like regular joes.
>>732522136Fuck
>>732521883LGB is based. We only hate the T here.
>>732521642Most FFs aren't turn based tho (ATB is real time with arbitrary waiting before one can act)
I actually enjoyed medieval fantasy Naruto. Never really understood the hate for it.
I'm glad that the 10/10 FFXVI is still causing meltdowns here
>>732522108>>732522267>>732522343Ironically defending faggots still makes you a faggot lover, faggot.
>>732521883What was the first Final Fantasy game to have a faggot in? I thought Kuja and Kefka but they are both just batshit insane and there is not a single scene with them being legitimate homos? I guess FFVII honeybee inn but it is curious why they removed that scene from remake.
>>732522079I'm specifically talking about the PS1 ports of V and VI. Mainly V, but there's no reason to play that version of VI either
>>732522383Same. Always felt that it was pretty forced. Probably just a loud minority, or two.
>>732522383Combat's pretty underbaked. That's my main issue.
>>732521883Only 1 person defense XVI and he's known to use his phone to back himself up. He's an admitted faggot who used to post Clive on ffg but ran out of fan art.
>>732522638>person defenseE S Land dynamite
>>732522638Is the irony here that you're clearly phoneposting right now?
>>732520517>Who cares if shitposters are shitting up the thread!>This will be the first FFXVI thread to reach the bump limit in quite some time.>Caring this much about the sanctity of your game despite the contents of the discussionI can't tell if this is falseflag or not, but considering what I've read through in this here thread, I'm inlined to believe otherwise. You know you've hit a new low when you start resorting to petty defeatist playground-tier tactics like this for the sake of teh epic internetz winrars. It's downright cult-like.
>>732519847I thought PC was supposed to save its sales and everyone would stop shitposting about it?

>>732522383The hate is largely artificial, enforced by the same handful of posters. It has the same score as Rebirth on Steam and it has a higher user score on Metacritic than Remake (not Intergrade)
>>732522935You weren't supposed to post this...
>>732522383Just like FFXV it is an ok game. Just not a final fantasy game.

The Yoshida defense force (singular) is really upset that everyone hates XVI and is letting /ffg/ die again.
>>732522383Combat is honestly the games biggest downfall. It's not even "Bad" they just took a genre like character action that, let's be honest, doesn't have a lot of casual player appeal then tried to make changes to appeal to casual players only to alienate both audiences and only appeal to very niche amount of players. The story has it's issues too (mainly everything to do with Barnabas) but it's not nearly as bad.That being said the Bahamut fight was basically everything I could have ever hoped for and the story did manage to get me emotional at some points so it was easily the best of the modern Final Fantasy's I've played.
>>732523210>singularProjection
>>732519796>"haters = fans">No, that's not how that works.That is exactly how it works when the thing you're a fan of turns to shit. Maybe you don't realize that fan is short for 'fanatic'. It doesn't mean you clap and cheer when the thing you like is raped. No, actual fans get angry when that happens. Tourist faggots and corpo worshipers like you don't care because you're not fans, you're just golems.
>>732523071>Wasn't turn based. Wasnt sold. Simple as.KEK
>>732523210I like XVI but I don't think it has anything to do with what Naoki Yoshida insisted it be like. The game is a few open options and alternate combo strings short of being a great action game, and I would easily pin blame on the producer not fighting for it to have an extra year of development which likely also stripped out the possibility for more playable characters
>muh 16 girls are hot>whole thread is talking about how shit the game is or their boogeymenAt least Aerith fags post art.
Maybe it could be said that Barry is FFXIV's biggest fan.
>>732502305ff9 remake looks liek trash, that looks nothing like zidane
>>732523162Just telling it like it is. >>732523337Most people liked XVI. That's the difference. It's just that you didn't. And it sounds like you haven't liked Final Fantasy in quite a long time.
>>732523071XV is action and outsold Rebirth and XVI combined 3 times over.The only turn based games that outsell modern FF are HD2D.
>>732507892ThisI honestly wanted to like the game because they obviously had a setup for a fun medieval fantasy world but then fucking none of them did anything. The only character who gets any sort of satisfying narrative arc is fucking Gav
>>732523125>Squeenix sucks at PC ports, that's part of the reason whyAll of their ports are great, except for the PC ports. Even the Switch 2 port of Remake is superb. Why is this?
>>732507892Did you see the totally based faggots who kissed thought? They were the best and most based characters who are also faggots.
>>732523493>Most people liked XVI.No, very few people did. And Final Fantasy fans certainly were not part of that group. You are not a Final Fantasy fan so you don't care when the series is raped.>And it sounds like you haven't liked Final Fantasy in quite a long time.Wrong. Stranger of Paradise and Rebirth were both great. I also replay 1-7 every year, and 9-12 every few years. Those games are still fun and enjoyable because they're actually Final Fantasy. FF16 is not. Kill yourself you fucking golem.
>>732523401Jote mogs every other FF girl and she only has like 5 sentences of dialogue.

>>732523601They're Japanese, they are literally incapable of making pc versions or even pc games (unless it's a vn or eroge)
>>732523071Turn cringe doesn't sell outside of E33.
>>732523660To each their own, but I don't like her. I think Mid, Benedicta and Jill are much more attractive.
>>732522383Let's start with the gameplay. The big focus is on the eikon abilities, but the eikon abilities are all on MMO style cooldowns. There's nothing you can do about the cooldowns, you just use them and do your one 4-hit filler combo in the meantime. Compare to SoP or FF7R where all your cool shit uses a resource, and you're rewarded with said resource for staying on the offensive and engaging with the enemy. That isn't the case in XVI, you just dump your skills and fuck around swinging your 4-hit toothpick filling the time. That's boring. What makes it worse is that there's only one character, with one weapon. So you can't even change up your filler playstyle.Character progression is on rails which is something FFXIII rightfully got shit on for. You get a new eikon every like 10 hours of gameplay and once you do get it there's no way to get anything else. You're storygated out of further cool shit. Character levels not only don't matter at all, but the exp gain is scaled so it stalls out when you start matching enemy levels, preventing you from grinding up. Not that it would matter, because those levels gain you nothing.Weapon crafting is completely pointless. Each dungeon/boss gives you a material you use to upgrade to the next sword, which just raises your damage by +5 (meaningless). There's literally no point to this system existing, and yet 90% of all treasure you find are materials for this system that has nothing to craft.
>>732523736None of what I said is a lie though. It's all true.
The smoking is great in XVIReally harkens back to the old gamesFuck all the gay shit from XI up
>>732522383>>732523796There are moments in the game where you literally watch a 45 minute cutscene, regain control, walk five steps forward, and get thrust into another 45 minute cutscene. The moviegame bloat is unreal, complete with slow forced walk and talk segments, squeezing past narrow corridors, and 'hold the triggers to do thing' QTEs. There are over 20 HOURS of cutscenes in this game. And that's not including the stilted canned emote sidequest cutscenes you'll spend another 20 hours watching.Sidequests are ripped straight out of FFXIV. They exist just to fill time and for nothing else. Listen to someone spend 10 minutes telling you how and why they need an object on the other side of the map. Walk over and pick it up. Go back. Bam, more crafting materials you can't use. Thrilling.There is no exploration. There are four giant open world areas with nothing in them but MMO sidequests, and there are hallway dungeons. The hallway dungeons are also ripped straight from FFXIV with the same two trash packs -> mini boss -> two trash packs -> mini boss -> two trash packs -> final boss structure.Eikon fights have spectacle, but that's all they have. Segments like the Phoenix fight at the start, or the Garuda fighting game segment, or the Phoenix vs Bahamut segment are all on rails and impossible to fail. They're cutscenes.The only time the game is remotely challenging are in the chronostones (I think that's what they were called) where you have to use one specific eikon and fulfill challenges to keep your time up. The rest of the game you can sleep through. FF Mode isn't any better because you have all eikons out the gate and can just blast everything even more easily than in normal mode.
>>732523710Dion is actually a really good character.
>>732523535>The only turn based games that outsell modern FF are HD2DAlso DQ11.
>>732522383>>732523861Onto the story. The premise of the game is awesome. And then it gets rugpulled almost the instant the demo ends. Within five minutes of the demo ending you watch Clive regain his freedom, his girlfriend, get a new job. Even his dog inexplicably returns at that same moment. And then you play for another hour and find out that he didn't even kill Joshua (hilariously, this comes immediately after he has his big moment of accepting """the truth""" that he killed Joshua). In other words, nothing in the demo mattered. It amounts to nothing except for baiting the player. What makes it worse is that later on you find out that Joshua has a personal ninja cult who was there at Phoenix Gate the night of the attack, and they just didn't intervene. They didn't even attempt to save Joshua, they just literally did nothing until they appeared to yank his unconscious body away off screen. It's nonsense.It's very clearly stitched together from several different drafts. You have shit like Ultima appearing in the demo wearing Joshua's face and robe. He then appears in the same guise leading Clive to Garuda. But then... Joshua isn't Ultima. Joshua is just Joshua and Ultima never appears wearing his guise again. It's never commented on, it's just obviously a draft in which Ultima used Phoenix to possess Joshua's corpse or something.You spend the majority of the game's story dealing with Sanbreque and its political situation. Actually most of the cutscenes for the entire game's story are about it. So it must be important, right? Nope. It's just filler. Ultima is fucking around with Sanbreque trying to conquer a continent... that he already has control of. He's literally doing it for no reason. And once Olivier and Clive's mom die, nobody ever mentions the plotline again. It just vanishes, because it actually didn't matter.
>>732523796>>732523861Do you just have these in a .txt file for any XVI thread?
>>732521883I will not tolerate this slander of the NOBLE, THE HONORABLE, THE VENERABLE, AND INCORRUPTIBLE PRINCE DION.
>>732523934Yes. He is obsessed with hating this game.
>>732522383>>732523928The music has a handful of great tracks, but the majority of the soundtrack is bland, forgettable, cinematic trash. If you download the OST you'll see it has 8 discs. But listen to it, and you'll hear the same 5 or 6 songs. Over and over and over and over. There are songs on the OST that are LITERALLY the same song, but with slightly different mixing or intros. It also overuses the fuck out of the Prelude and the FF Main Theme, presumably because Soken thinks that's a shortcut to making it sound like Final Fantasy. Soken is probably one of the most misused aspects of the game. He was celebrated for doing shit like XIV's Alexander soundtrack, exciting rock beats and electronic shit. And then they told him to copy Skyrim or something. The only songs on the OST that sound like Soken are Do or Die and Titan Lost. And according to Soken he actually sneaked those songs into test builds and relied upon the praise for them from QA to make sure the higher ups wouldn't rip them out. Fucking unreal.>>732523934Yes I do.
>>732523912This was my first DQ game and I loved it. Yet every DQ thread has people shitting on it. FF and DQ both have a huge 'jaded fan pushing 40' problem
>>732523535Octochads rise up!
>>732523847Nobody outside a handful of Mexicans who clap when they see DUDE LITERAL FRICKIN FINAL FANTASY NARUTO AND THEY SWEAR LIKE GROWN UPS! likes FFXVI. Nobody. Among Final Fantasy fans it is universally reviled. There's nothing to like. You're lying when you try to say the majority like it, you know you're lying. You can't show me where any of these fucking retards are. You just insist everyone who says otherwise is one person on 50 different devices controlling all narrative surrounding the game across the entire internet, like Barry is a fucking advanced AI or something. Kill yourself you turd world golem.
Why didn't the Undying, who were present at Phoenix Gate that very night, do anything about the attack?Why didn't any of them get Joshua from his room? Why did Wade have to do it?Why did a chambermaid notice that Annabella had moved all her belongings out of the castle a week beforehand and notified the Duke of this, but the Undying were apparently unaware?Why didn't they rescue Clive?Why did Ultima just so happen to be wearing the exact same cloak Joshua would be wearing in the future?Where did Joshua hear Ultima's name in the first place? The Undying said they had no idea about him until Joshua ordered them to investigate.Why does Primogenesis randomly disappear at times?Why did Joshua continue killing himself to keep Ultima in his chest even when he was well aware that Ultima was still just floating out there doing whatever the fuck he wanted anyway?Why do major characters including the main heroine have their conclusions hidden in sidequests while you spend 6 hours a piece on Martha, the Dame, and L'ubor?Why did Sanbreque never notice the giant tidal wave frozen in time about a mile up the shoreline from their capitol city, or why did they never investigate it?Why did Ultima spend so much time driving Sanbreque to world conquest only for it to amount to nothing at all and not aid in his plan in any way because he already had control of all the world's nations and could have activated worldwide mind control at any time?Why was Clive's unit sent to kill Shiva's dominant, when Sanbreque at the time was fighting Waloed? Why would they aid their enemy? Why was Clive's random unit of prisoner soldiers sent to kill an eikon at all?
If there's one thing FF16 and Stellar Blade have in common it's that the retards who bought, liked and defend them have low standards. The former died and is mostly hated by all but the few who'll fall on their sword for it while the latter continues to grow and spread like a plague despite both games being equally mediocre dogwater and I've played both to completion.It makes me scoff at society and the vidya hobby as a whole more than I ever have when people willingly sucked down the gacha chode.
>>732524160She is perfect
I tried to talk about the game once and got called Barry because I complained about it being too easy. Overall it was a very mediocre game and reminded me of Asura's Wrath. All spectacle and not much substance.
>>732524126That's a bunch of lies proven false by Steam and Metacritic and PSN and anywhere else.
>>732523863Also this. Like Barrett Sometimes people do gay shit, no one acts like a bottom tranny 24/7 in the real world
>>732524274many such cases
>>732524274Sounds like something Barry would say.
>>732523912Square Enix is pushing Switch 2 ports extremely hard for a reason.
>>732524280You arent supposed to say that
I really liked this game up until Barnabas died. Ultima was lame.
>>732523964>Dion sacrifices himself, because it is the honorable thing to doTotally based bro.
>>732524442It should be near 8 million by now with the Switch 2 launch.
>>732524172>Why was Clive's random unit of prisoner soldiers sent to kill an eikon at all?Because his unit had been doing similar missions for the past 13 years. Also Ultima had been pulling strings to get Clive near other dominants so he could absorb their powers.
>>732523660and she only has like 5 fanarts lmaooo16 is so fucking gay that the only fanarts it gets are gay shits
>>732519868>omelette du menage
>>732524462Someone has to tell it how it actually is.
>>732524172>why didn't sauron kill the eagles?
>>732524286Barrett fucked white girls.
>>732524280You don't want me to actually start posting these reviews, golem.
>>732524653>29k copies in JapanMore like 7.15M
>>732523660You like to fuck boys don't you?
>>732524748Good evening saar.
>>732502305I refunded this for Metaphor and it was a much better game.
>>732524442I can't believe it is still #1. Tendies were really craving this game.
>>732524760Anyone can cherry pick reviews, anon. There are thousands of them.
>>732524760>it doesn't count because it just doesn't okThis is the average FF fan for every game of the last 35 years, you are the only goylem here
>no forced product placements >no out of touch brand collabs>no shitty mobile spinoff >no mandatory supplementary material (Movies, Light Novels, audio dramas)>no unnecessary sequelsClive did get pushed onto Tekken 8 but other than that, I'm surprised XVI avoided all the weird money grabbing stuff XIII and XV had.
>>732524662>Because his unit had been doing similar missions for the past 13 years.No they hadn't. That's the implication at the start of the game, yes. But that's not actually how it is. There aren't dominants being killed regularly. All the dominants besides Shiva and Leviathan were known, and both of those were already chosen well before that squad was doing missions.>Also Ultima had been pulling strings to get Clive near other dominants so he could absorb their powers.No he hadn't. He didn't know Clive was in that unit. He had no idea where Clive was until his powers activated while fighting Benedikta.
>>732524280Based and trueXVI-hater retard lives in his own fantasy world
>>732523162Too bad for you, but the game is hated everywhere, literally everywhere. It’s no exaggeration to ay that 16 is the worst, lowest selling and most hated Final Fantasy in history.
>>732523493>Most people liked XVI. Not enough for>People to come back to each subsequent DLC>A Switch/Switch 2 port>Any relevance beyond being shit, a waste of time or an RPG>Investors to stick with CBU3's projects outside 14That's the actual difference. You lost.
>>732524760Are we supposed to discount the majority of reviews because a minority exists? Kekkypoo
>>732524653Remake was at 7m sold copies 2.5 years ago. It is much, much higher than that now. More like 9m or 10m.
>>732524948You're moving goalposts, anon, and blatantly lying, so I'll go ahead and accept your concession.
>>732523796>>732523861This is pretty spot on.
>>732524601>Cutscene where he attacks his city has loads of people out in the street, civilians just staring and looking about their business.>Directly after a segment where the streets are completely deserted because the Dragoons are staging a coup. >Where you as the player are running through the entire city, not a single civilian is on the street. Fuckers making FF16 are so incompetent they can't even be consistent in lining up their own story.
>>732524803It's just 40$, so it's not like you're throwing the house out the window if you buy that.If it released for the original 70$ it wouldn't have sold shit.
>>732524948FFTIC outsold rebirth btw
>>732524950Every positive review is from>a mexican>someone who never liked Final Fantasy>a sony moviegame shitter who clapped because cutscenesLiterally every single one.
>>732524653It's been like 4 years since we had an update. I sure hope so!
>>732524839XVI simply doesn't sell. It's the lowest-selling Final Fantasy of all time for a reason. Remember how Clive got into Tekken 8 instead of Tifa, becoming the worst selling DLC with the lowest player count, effectively killing Tekken 8 and leading to Harda getting fired less than a year later?
>>732525051>All those reviews are [rent free boogeyman]You are objectively incorrect kek
>>732525051So the average FF fan?
>>732525096Rebirth sold worse than XVI did, btw. We like to forget that, but it's true.
>>732524895Try harder, Barry.
>>732525096Most of XVs stock was sold at a similar discount btw
>among the bottom 5 ff games on steam and psn People hate XVI if they actually own the game.
>>732524895FFXVI outsold Rebirth 2x over and reviewed very positively btwYou are fake news
>>732524748Good morning Rajeesh
i reinstalled on a new pc and fuck, forgot how long it takes to lead the first time, not counting the fucking shader compilling
>>732502305I still can't believe they gender swapped Zidane for the FFIX remake.
In all my life, I've never seen a FF game as hated as this one. Even many high-profile gamers share the same disdain. I genuinely suspect it's because the game panders to homosexuals and trannies.
>>73252518516's biggest defender hasn't even played the game. He only latched on to it because ""Barry"" said it was shit.
>>732525021$40 is a fair price for a six year old game on a game-key card. The game would have been at least $50 otherwise.
It looks like we're dumping our folder now.
>>732524993I'm not moving anything. If anything it's you whose making the concessions, but your too stubborn to admit you've lost, have no arguments so you're now you're dipping out claiming you've won.
>>732524601He knew that his actions could only be atoned for in death, and he paid the price without flinching or cowering.
>>732525341Most people liked XVI. It's only a handful of terminally online autists who have made shitting on this game their entire personality. You can prove this is true by looking at its ratings literally anywhere. I'm sorry that you dislike the facts. It's okay if you personally didn't like the game. Most people did though.
>>732525226XVI was a literal who flop trash, while FF7 is the face of the franchise. FF7 Remake has sold around 8 million copies by now, and Rebirth is probably not far behind. Meanwhile, XVI doesn't even get a Switch port because it already bombed in every other port.
>>732525315i work for square enix and XVI sold better than any other FF in the last 20 years, not counting the MMOs
>>732525226VIIRgins don't like these factsThey even has to cancel Redditbirth dlc plans and rush Part 3 development because Rebirth flopped so hardSome say it was just too Ubisoft and anime...
>>732525427>FF7 Remake has sold around 8 million copies by now, and Rebirth is probably not far behind.>>>and Rebirth is probably not far behind.
>>732525418Now you're going in circles which means you're out of ammo. Thanks for playing, retard. 16's shit and no one but you likes it.
>>732525558Projection is not an argument
>>732525536>They even has to cancel Redditbirth dlc plans and rush Part 3 development because Rebirth flopped so hardThis is true. The obviously planned Vincent or Cid DLC was officially canceled the November after launch (i.e. 9 months later), and they are rolling the DLC into Part 3. No one bought Rebirth. They didn't even bother budgeting in Denuvo for it, that's how poorly it sold. The put Denuvo on EVERYTHING, even the 2DHD Remakes.
>>732525536CS3 just keeps winning. FFXVI is likely at 6M and still climbing. Very strong sales legs.
>>732525427>XV sold 10MThis was a six year sales milestone btw
Reminder that Octopath got a 5 -> 6 million sales update before Remake got 7 -> 8. Octopath was only 10% of Remakes budget.
>>732525558Most people liked it, anon. I'm sorry that your opinion is not the prevailing opinion here.
>>732525418Most FF fans who play XVI hate it. Even in circles like r/finalfantasy and on Twitter, most people think XVI is garbage. Normies don’t even care about this trash, lol. I mean, its price has already been slashed to bargain bin levels, while Rebirth remains healthy
>>732525763>Most FF fans who play XVI hate it.Nope. Again, this lie you keep purporting is proven false by literally any rating anywhere.
>>732502305Built for NPC.
>>732525715Rebirth has still never had an update, btw. No sales announcement ever.
>>732524442>Still using shipped copies>differentiates intergrade from remake meaning they probably also counted every upgraded PS4 copy sold with the yuffie dlc as individual sales
>>732525652Rebirth DLC were cancelled long before Rebirth released. Part 3 will be the game to have DLC. Most likely numerous DLC.
>>732525805Cry more, loser. XVI is the worst and most hated Final Fantasy ever, the investors themselves even said so!Or are you saying you know better than the investors??
>>732525897The verdict is still out on whether or not the free GamePass instances are included.
>>732525940>spam reviews on metacritic are "straight from the investors"
>>732525763Do you think if you just say things over and over again they will become true?
>>732525701Successful games tend to have sales updates at every milestone or so.
>>732525940Yes I think I know much better than a SEA investment firm
Barry thread?
>>732525940Those are cherry picked quotes from Metacritic reviews, used solely to push whatever narrative the "investors" were wanting to push. The reality is pic related. You might not want to look at this.
>>732526048So XV was only about as successful as the average 2DHD game, got it
>>732526048Will we ever get a Rebirth update?
>>732525897Well yeah, because Remake and Remake Intergrade are the same game. Remake Intergrade is the PS5/PC/Xbox/Switch 2 with updated graphics pack and the DLC. >>732524442
>>732525763>most FF fansThere aren't many left, that's why Squeen tried to cater to action game fans with FF16. Face it, you're a niche, and you die-hards alone can't keep this franchise alive.
>>732526024It does not need to be repeated to be true, because it already is
>>732526116>Will we ever get a Rebirth update?At this point, I genuinely believe that it never will. My guess is that Square Enix is hoping to be able to say something along the lines of:>"10 million copies shipped and sold physically and digitally of the Final Fantasy VII Remake Trilogy!"by the time Part 3 releases. This would, of course, include additional sales of Remake as well as the Switch 2 ports. I think that's why they're rushing those to Switch.
>>732526150Can confirm. I was a diehard who bought ps4 just for XV and that made me stop being a fan.
>>732525940We've already been through this. This investor was just trying to make the stock price dump, so that they can buy more stock for a cheaper price.
What are your thoughts on the worst Final Fantasy title of all time, bros?
>>732526150>Face it, you're a niche, and you die-hards alone can't keep this franchise alive.VII fans will continue to buy anything with the logo on it for as long as Square Enix keeps making it. If they can start churning those out yearly and with the same structure, sort of like Assassin's Creed, that combined with XIV and XI revenue (the most profitable FFs of all time) could definitely keep the Final Fantasy franchise alive for a long time to come. And Square Enix also has more than just Final Fantasy. And they also do more than just make video games.
I hate to admit it, but I think Barry is the undisputed winner. XVI was indeed a shit that flopped.
>>732526283>based investors want more sharesIt would be great if that were the case, as it could most definitely lead to Yoshida and his team being removed from Square Enix, and Final Fantasy to finally return to its roots.I hope its true
>>732524803I got my copy. I am keeping it is an unopened memento and collector's item, because I love Final Fantasy VII Remake that much.
>>732526467>as it could most definitely lead to Yoshida and his team being removed from Square EnixThat's literally never going to happen. XVI was profitable, hence the sales announcement. As much as you hate it, it was profitable, and the budget was less than half of Remake's or Rebirth's (they both had roughly the same budget). XIV is also by far the most profitable FF in the series. Like it or not, XIV and Yoshida are the true cash cows of Final Fantasy. Not VII.
>>732519665They just announced season 3 a few days ago. Let's see if they can fix the fuck ups from season 2, or if it is truly over now that Harada is gone.
>>732526464>half of XV's PC sales in 1.5 yearsI don't think this image says what you think it says
>>732526467They are a predatory SEA investment firm known for gutting companies and feasting on their corpse. This is not what you want for Final Fantasy.>>732526482jesus christ
>>732526467I have bad news for you. Even more so, since an investor only cares about profit. Profit that Fatlus can only dream of.
>>732526464I was told by /v/ that XV is the worst one so anything rated lower must be utter dog shit hated by the masses.
Jill is pretty cute but she's not as sexy as Luna was. >There's an alternate timeline where VSXIII got made and Laxyprocrastinator made tons of Stella pornTake me there...
>>732526104XVI was a complete financial disasteron every metric. Yoshida is a total failure as a producer. The only reason XVI even got big was because of Asmongold and the pandemic nostalgia bait, trying to cash in core FF fans stuck at home.Yoshida's entire approach is just copying and plagiarizing older FF titles. no originality, just rehashes. No surprise it doesn't last. Now, with XIV on the decline, Yoshida's relevance is fading fast
>>732526272Literally what happened to me. XIII and XV really shook my enthusiasm for the series.Luckily XIV and XVI restored it each time. The Team Asano games too. It's definitely a rollercoaster though. 7R and Redditbirth are alright but a little too anime for me.
>>732526772XV, despite its flaws, is still an rpg.
>>732526914>XVI was a complete financial disasteron every metric.Completely false. Do you do anything other that lie?
>>732520705Common turnBASED W like expected
>>732526895It's funny that FF16 has almost zero fanart. It really shows the state of the game, considering that even a dedicated FF porn artist doesn't want anything to do with it.
>>732514486Rather them than me.
>>732526914>not pictured, forspoken, game that cost twice as much as XVI and sold less than 100k copies
>>732526979Barry always does this. He is completely mental and easily one of the most dedicated haters on the internet.
>>732526979You're coping, sis. SE admitted it flopped. You could at least be humble like the SoP fags and stop the cope.
i dont check ff threads very often now, how the fuck is barry still at it?
>>732502305I tried to like it but this game genuinely sucks, it feels like 90% of the budget went into the cutscenes and boss fights, everything outside that is so incredibly boring and unimaginative, the game also loves to show you places that you'll never get to interact with
>>73252727815 years strong.
>>732509745>They don't double down and try to rape them in their dominant formsGayest fucking faction ever. Not wanting to tame monster pussy like that.
>>732527103FFXVI has insane amounts of fan art. More so than for other games.
>>732526979>N-no, the investors are lying.>N-no, the sales are lying.>N-no, the player count is lying.>N-no, 4chan is lying.>N-no, Reddit is lying.>N-no, Metacritic is lying.Everything’s a lie to your delusional ass, lol. what's next, is the director of XVI lying too?
I just came back from a hiatus and checked why this thread is so fast. Are 16 cucks really samefagging about Barry still?
>>732526914>hd title sales dropping off a cliff with remake but staying in the same spot with XVII don't think you know what's in half these pictures do you?
>>732527491It's all they have and tbf I wouldn't want to talk about that wokeslop homo game either.
>>732527491>from hiatusis admitting that you're also one of the losers spamming the thread really helping make your point?
>>732527492Doctors should bisect your brain and publish its result to the public. I'm curious how your delusional mind works.
>>732520873>This has to be the worst take of all mankind>"Women should have rights" rears its ugly headHmm?
>>732527469Your greentext is fake and made up. I already showed you that everything you're saying is a lie. Once again, this is the reality: >>732526104It was a profitable game that the vast majority of people liked. Saying anything else is a lie.
>>732502305stop shilling your flopshit
>>732527442It's funny that you posted your own folders. It's very obvious that you tried hard collecting those "fanarts," lol, and even then, some of them are literally in-game screenshots, kek.FF16 has almost zero fanart. the only ones it gets are probably gay shits.
>>732527469Just wait until the Switch 2 port is announced. Barry will then claim that they are only porting the game, because it "flopped". kek
>>732527762(mostly) fake newsStocks go up and they go down
>>732527613>90 to 40 to 90 versus 65-68 constantI'm sorry you're blind anon, FFVIIR didn't come out in Q3 2021 either
>>732527360I honestly thought the new captchas would have stopped him or at least slowed him down. Wishful thinking I guess.
>>732527793Uh, ok. Whatever you say.
>>732527920Can you catbox or link to 1689348000956539.png?
>>732527675BG 3 poster method. V shitposters are paying for AI bots to spew shitposting threads huh
So many people just stopping by to check the if Barry is still winning after all these years. Even B-man has more cultural relevance that Faggot Floptasy Shitstain.
>>732527675Kek>>732527469>>732527613Kek, 16fag. Thanks for the laugh, I'm bored and I needed that. You prove to be as much of a lolcow as Barry. It's been a while since I last visited /ffg/. Hope to see you there.I genuinely enjoy interacting with schizoprenia like you.
>>732527915I'm surprised that an Indian knows how to solve those annoying star captchas, to be completely honest.
>>732527990
>>732528021Awesome. Tell us all about the MTG Barry collection, bro.
>>732527278I still remember the first time I ran into him during the KH3 ending leaks. I thought he for sure was some exaggerated caricature anons used to label doomers, but he really did exist, had discernible patterns and MO and even replied to some of my posts.
>>732515249Speaking for purely single player, yes. It was an alright title which is high praise for FF nowadays.
>>732528206Nice.
>>732528021>16 finally gets a thread to bump limit>40% of it is shitting on the game>40% talking about barry>10% talking about other games>5% is people returning for the first time in years to agree with the remaining 5% fighting for their lives kekaroo
>the same three posters who regularly keep ffg afloat are now spamming this thread to defend their patron saint barry
>>732528482They don't think it be like it is, but it do.
>>732528021You struck a nerve
Neutral observer here but it looks like XVI Chads won this one bigly
>>732528441Every Final Fantasy thread that hits the bump limit always equates to at least ten new sales. Never forget that. :)
>>732527920>>732527892Kek, you're so dumb, this is funny.In Japan, FY2021 runs from April 1, 2020, to March 31, 2021.FF7 Remake was released on April 10, 2020, right in the middle of that fiscal year.In Japan, FY2024 runs from April 1, 2023, to March 31, 2024.FF16 was released on June 22, 2023, also during that fiscal year.You see how the sales spike sharply after the FF7 Remake release but barely move after FF16?And how profits shot up exponentially with Remake but are plummeting with XVI? lol
>>732528441That's a lot better than bump limit threads that are just porn dumps or r=u schizo replying to himself
>>732528576As per usual. :)))
>>732528441These threads are just an excuse to talk about Barry. It was supposed to be a waifu thread but there isn't enough fanart.
>>732523125It's really hit or miss. Rebirth was a shit port that didn't even properly implemented ultrawide but XVI ran pretty flawlessly on all accords. I don't see what problem you could have with it. The game bombed due to 1 year exclusivity where the mixed reception already wiped it off a lot of peoples radar.
>>732528657So VIIR didn't change anything compared to 2019 then?
Are there any worthwhile mods for XVI or is just nude slop?
>>732528775The zero cooldown mods are fun
>>732528721It's funny that 16fag tried to spam the thread with fan arts, but it barely has any. I'm browsing Pixiv right now, and I checked, and yep, most of the (little) art it did get was homosexual content.
>>732528657You are misquoting, Barry. Maybe you should take a nap to regain your strength.
>>732528576Another victory for Final Fantasy fans.
>>732528831that seems unethical though
>>732528441That's been every thread since the game launched and they stopped paying india to shill it.
>>732520825I enjoyed 2 a lot actually but the speedup features help the cumbersome stat pushing a lot so that probably elevated it a bit. If I would have to play it as a slow burn like originally released I'd probably hate it too. Storywise it was alright. Kinda basic but not as basic as 1 and the emperor just casually taking over hell after you send him to his maker was honestly kino.
>>732528576FLAWLESS VICTORY
>>732527103You haven't looked hard enough.
>>732527442I'm always fascinated by how many women like this pairing. I guess it's because Clive is a handsome hunk and they self insert into Jill?
>>732517476>five whole fucking years of absolutely nothing plot-relevant happening except the new hideaway getting establishedKind of insane they did that, kind of like how they glossed over a decade of Clive's life from his time as a soldier of Sanbreque. Insanely poorly thought out, dogshit game.
>>732529856Probably. Just like how dudes self-insert into Clive.
>>732517643Its carried by a few good tracks. The soundtrack otherwise is extremely generic and forgettable.
>>732519969>13 resultsNice.
Clive won.
>>732528206O hate one thing about xviThe lewds are tame romance kissu kissu happy ending bullshit instead of shit like benedikta and shiva girl getting their cunts drilled open by rape monsters and tentacles and shit
>>732525096A lot of people who might have been interested in playing the game didn't have a PS5 when the game came out, so instead watched a streamer play the game or watched the cutscenes on Youtube.Once you've seen the game through all the way once there is zero reason to play it. It has no replay value.
>>732526186Yoship turned out to be such a soft skinned gay faggot.
>>732527278>i dont check ff threads very often now
>>732530950XVI outsold Rebirth 2x over with half the budget btw
>>732531190>Square Enix Holdings announces third-quarter financial results for the fiscal year ending March 2026. MMO business, including "FF14," sees year-on-year decline in revenue and profits.It did so well that it made no dent at all in Square Enix's profit structure.
I wish this game didn't run like shit
>>732531190This is true. Still strange how that happened. The FF game that a few autists on /v/ hate the most just so happened to outsell and out earn Rebirth.
LOOOLhttps://gamebiz.jp/news/420423
>>732531476Look like >>732526283 was right.
>>732527278He has been doing this for years, so I doubt he will ever stop at this point. It is just his thing, I guess.
>>732531596It worked, they're going to buy out Square Enix or buy enough stock to have a controlling stack over the rest of the shareholders. Then they'll dictate SE strategy, either that or force them to sell ips and parts of the company. Why do I say that? Because that's their MO and they've done it before with previous companies they've bought controlling stacks of.
Barry already won. You can stop this pitiful samefagging now.
