>4 count them fucking 4 potions in the first 15 minute of real gameplay >didnt need to use even fucking one of themthis game fucking sucks its too fucking easy i want to feel like im threatened while playing not being force fed heath like a toddler whoever made this game is a FAILURE of a human being and should be OUTOF A JOB DO BETTER!!
>>740087259>die to boss>click retry>it sets you halfway through the boss's health bar and puts you at full HP with refilled potions
>>740087467then im VERY glad i dropped it cause that's horseshit
>>740087467I was a little disappointed. I got really far into the bird lady's boss fight and I died. I knew I could do it if I tried again, but it was like you said, started multiple phases in with full health.
all ffs are easy. literally 6 years beat the old ones
>>740087596the old ones didnt hold your hand and pamper you like a toddler and we ABSOULETY should not buy ANY game that does this we want games to be hard not baby tier
>>740087467>Dying in a boss fightI'm having fun and I'm almost done with it but mate how have you died at all
>>740088246The behemoth miniboss going up the bridge to the last crystal. I thought the Meteor AoE was covering the entire arena so I assumed it was a damage check and just tried to beat the clock and got one shot.
>>740088346Haven't gotten there yet, I just spent an hour dicking around to fetch things for Mid to build an airship but we're talking about breaking the last crystal so I'm probably getting close. The combat is fun, I hope new game+ makes it harder.
>>740087259are you using the autododge accessory?
>>740088584no what the fuck? why the fuck does someone need an "autododge" accessory jesus christ this game is ass
>>740088673You don't, but no one's making you use it either.
>>740088796it shouldnt exist what part of this are you not getting?
>>740088831There's nothing wrong with having an easy mode in a game for people who want to experience the world and the story and the combat but the default is too hard for them.
Trash game will forever stay trash
>>740088980there is an easy mode you can pick it at the start of the game i didn't cause im not a whiny little faggot
>>740087467I don't think I died once playing this game. Unbelievably easy and repetitive. I don't get how people call this a masterpiece.
>>740089069Ok but everyone isn't you. I agree an easy mode for this already toddler easy game is stupid but there are retards who want to play this game for the story. That's why it is there.
>>740087467>Dying in a boss fightis that even possible?
>>740087259It's an action game if course it's easy. Also let me guess you had the easy mode ring equipped too
>>740089219>for the story they can watch it on youtube jesus christ the games not even remotely hard the witcher 3 is harder and thats not that hard either
>>740089296I don't disagree with you. I'm just telling you the reason they put those items in.
>>740089241Is it possible to die in this game before new game plus? The Dodge window is built so a retard could hit it everytime.
The game loads you with potions because you can only hold a limited number.
>>740090270You can hold 5 that recharge you to 100%. Plus magic recharge and devil trigger recharge. It's just too easy.
It should be $10 by now if FF15 was by this point. Its insulting really.
Who dies in YoshitPiss 16 to a story boss?
>>740087259I want easy movie gamesI want to have funPlay the endgame content if you want difficulty
>>740090925since when was a bit of difficulty not fun? do you stop having fun the minute you lose?
>>740087259FFXVI has no party.FFXVI has no cities to explore.FFXVI has no dungeons to explore or find.FFXVI has no weapon system or weapon attributes.FFXVI has no elemental system.FFXVI has no magic system.FFXVI has practically no RPG systems.FFXVI has no optional areas to explore and has no actual sense of exploration.FFXVI has only one combo string the entire game.FFXVI has no minigames.FFXVI has no vehicles to pilot/control, which hurts the sense of scale of the world and the journey.FFXVI has nothing to find or do outside the main story, you just find 2 gil and buy nothing.FFXVI has no meaningful optional side content to delve into, no party camp quests, no optional dungeons, no weapon upgrading that matters, little meaningful gear progression, no new weapon types that expand the combat, no party techniques to unlock, no vehicle upgrades, and little reason to explore.Every single sidequest in XVI is terrible and is a generic MMO fetch quest.FFXVI has no final dungeon at all.FFXVI is also literally empty as fuck with nothing in its supposed "world."FFXVI has the majority of the story happen offscreen or between timeskips that are never explained in dialogue or cutscenes.The FFXVI DLC was literal cut content.There is no explanation for what Clive did in the timeskips, Joshua's actions and how he survived Phoenix Gate, and what happened to Jill, let alone the backstories of characters like Anabella, Hugo, Benedikta, or Barnabas being completely non-existent in any cutscene or dialogue.Ultima is the worst, most nothing villain we've ever had, an actual fucking void of any character or personality whatsoever.
>>740087259Game is actually hard I doubt you played it or Kairos and Ultimaniac, you just watched it on YouTube and came here to cry/v/ doesn't actually play video games
>>740090925I would if the game wasn't so fucking long and boring. Ever single side quest is just a fetch quest.
>>740091208>I actually have content to do in a video game I'm going insaaane
>>740091150It's not. The Dodge window is a mile long. >>740091246When it's the exact same thing over and over it's just filler.
>>740087259You have to beat the game first for it to make everything into hp sponges so you can die once in a while.
>>740087259Because you're still in the tutorial. FF16 has a bunch problems but lack of difficulty wasn't one. Both 16 and 7R are very well balanced and more challenging than most games.
>>740087739>the old ones didnt hold your hand and pamper you like a toddlerThey absolutely fucking did, retard
>>740087259Please seriously BE LOUDER about the easy difficulty issue, the devs at SE need to hear itIt's not just that the game is braindead easy by default (despite it being the most "mature" FF), they didn't include even a simple difficulty increase option, literally only gave you options to make the game even more easy. They genuinely had no fucking idea in the slightest that challenge is an important part of game design, or at least that many people require some challenge in their games and won't enjoy brainless buttonmashing.I can already see SE "learning their mistake" from 16's underperformance, and just going back to turn based or futuristic setting in FF17, but still making the game braindead easy and then being surprised when it underperforms again
>>740091442That's poor design.>>740091512The game gets easier as you play.
>>740091512They never bought it, they've played the demo at most and whine about it
Forspoken is better
>>740091595They should go back to that or pick one type of game and stick to that. This game feels like a shitty mix of both action and RPG and does neither right.
>>740087259I cancelled my pre order when I heard it got banned on a bunch of countries for gay sex. You could infer it would be piss easy based off that alone. Dick suckers hate a challenge.
>>740091557there are battles in ff6 where if you dont do them right its instant death
>>740091720Stop replying to yourself
>>740091145All true.
>>740087259this "game" was made by old non gamers for non gamers
>>740091512the tutorial is where yuu beat the shit out of that one dude in red
>>740087467I hope it was the Leviathan. Every other boss in this game is a fucking joke.
>>740091246MMO style sidequests are pure filler
>we want new audience because boomers aren't buying anymore>let's make it an action game>also it will be so easy that geriatrics only need to mash 1 button>wtf why did it flop and become lower rated that even ff15
>>740087259I'm currently exploring the goblin swamp and I'm so fucking bored. Should I quit out and play Tales Of Symphonia instead?
>>740092650You could quit and watch paint dry and you'd probably be less bored.
>>740091838>This game feels like a shitty mix of both action and RPGno, it's literally just a shitty action gameClosest comparison to it would be the new God of Wars: games with light rpg elements, light "open world", lot's of story stuff, but gameplaywise it's just a single character hack n slash, except GoW actually has decent challenge in it's combat and bunch of difficulty options to tune it to your liking. Casual storyfags can literally just pick easy difficulty and play it like that, there is no fucking excuse to not only pandering to them by the default difficulty but not even including harder difficulties
>>740092271yes you were filtered by the 10/10 FFXVI it seems
>>740087259If you're on PC I think there is a mod to unlock the hard difficulties for first play through.
>>740087259Man, I'm so glad I chose stranger Paradise over this shit. Everything I hear about it just makes it sound so terrible.
>>740087467Stop avatarfagging redditfrog posting nigger
>>740089256>It's an action game if course it's easyIt's literally inspired by DMC's combat, a series well known to be challenging, and where the whole appeal is beating challenging levels of a bunch of difficulties
>>740090812this game mogs 15 and I like 15.
>>740092940True.
>>740092650It's not an exaggeration when everyone is saying that the prologue is the best part. It only gets worse from there.
>>740091882And how difficult it is to "do them right" you stupid fucking retard?FF is a completely braindead series for retards and always has been
>>740091145BUT FFXVI has good twinks.
>>740093103Really wish they poured this game's budget into SoP instead. We could have had a full blown remake of FF1 with a big world and a good party based action combat, instead of SoP being just a humbl spinoff and 16 being a game I couldn't recommend to anyone
>>740091145Most of these complaints aren't real complaints, they're just things you didn't like.
>>740093103All my gripes about SoP are because it's too much of an rpg in the loot department. Way too many stats too manage too. If it was toned down to some basic stats and affinities for equips it would be the perfect FF game for me.
its such a shame square enix dropped the game like a rock. I get it no more dlc but no more bug fixes, performance updates, or even ps5 pro patch? come the fuck on.
>>740088831Why does it affect you personally?
>>740091145Sounds like 16 is a FF game in name only. Shy didn't they just make it a low budget spinoff instead?
>>740093642They're valid complaints because they're staples of the series. This game sucks.
>>740087259It was made by a retard mmo dev who gutted all the rpg elements that weren't just leveling and linear stat growth from his mmo and reduced every job to mashing the same buttons over and over while spamming things off cool down.
What's with the constant threads for this game recently is a schizo active again or something.
>>740094021Final fantasy has to much baggage even though most of the games suck. You need to check of 50 boxes like naming a character cid and having an airship and having a spell called Curaga or retards riot.
If the game was called Final Fantasy: Clive's Quest nobody would have anything bad to say about it.
>>740094324Ok but gameplay wise all it had to do was not be babys first action RPG. You could give this game to someone who has never touched a controller and they'd learn it easily. I'd be genuinely surprised if anyone who played this game even died during their first playthrough.
>>740094558Sure but that's not what the complaints in the post in reference were. This game would be WAY better if each eikon had its own basic combo and magic, and if the enemies were threatening.
>>740094671Sure but it didn't so it's not. I don't get what you're getting at the list is complaints which are things he didn't and a lot of other people didn't like. That's what complaints are.
it's time to kill the mainline and just make a 2D fighting game instead
>>740093103>Niohslop enjoyer running his mouthSo you didn't play it but shittalk it anywayThe absolute state of Final Fantasy "fans"
>>740090925This. Gaming should be just interactive movies. I press a button and something funny and cool happens. And if I somehow lose, I should been able to press a button and still win. This is not negotiable if you want my money.
>>740087467>dyingThis game is too easy to die.
