Some people really need to figure out that you can dislike stuff without making it part of your personality. You don't have to go out of your way to remind everyone every time it comes up, and argue with anyone who does like it
>>493447302>>493447162HOLY FUCKING BASED
Name 1 (one) good Final Fantasy game.
What a horrible start
>>493447162kek
Friends.What changes would have saved FFXVI?
>>493447162>>493447302BASED
>>49344754912 of course
>>493447742A different development studio
Replaying FF I-IX and X after I come to realize that X and everything after is really only Final fantasy superficially. Something is missing.
>>493447742A different producer
>>493448042Nigga I know you did not need to replay them all to realize that.
>>493448360Bitch. Never respond to me in that fashion ever again. It will not be advantageous to your long term health. You must immediately cease posting.
>>493448042Nostalgia
>>493448454I will fuck you raw lil dude, toe curling eyes rolling anal intercourse is NEAR AND SOON for you
>>493448891Bitch how dare you talk to me like that you should get up and kneel to me and I'll spare you the night of the 28th.
>>493449137I finished jerking it, not playing with you anymore sorry
Yuna is a Hypello fucking whore
Final fantasy.
>>493450096Is the house meeting over already?
>>493447162>>493447302Where did this pasta come from? Why are people suddenly spamming this?
I liked FFX, but I liked FFX-2 even more.
>>493451202>Where did this pasta come from?https://arch.b4k.co/vg/thread/491516915/#q491664621>Why are people suddenly spamming this?Far as I can tell, it's a reply to the incessant anti-Yoshida shitposting that typically occurs here. The anti-Yoshida shitposters have recently adopted their own version of this as well, which they """spam""" occasionally.
>>493447162LMAO Are you the same anon that made this?
>>493447302>>493447162probably same autistic faggot phoneposting
>shit thread right from the OPGood job, retards
Why can't you guys just be normal
>>493453581XVI did irreparable damage to the series, unfortunately.
>>493447162>>493447302AAAIIIIEEEE NO YOU HAVE TO ADD THE PASSIVE AGGRESSIVE PART TO IT
>>493451602Dedicating one's life to obsessively shitposting certain Final Fantasy games seems to be sadly common here.
>>493454775It's very sad that most of the people in /ffg/ hate Final Fantasy while thinking themselves to be peak FF fans.
>>493455021I love Final Fantasy
One true love and kissu hugs!
>>493455460Where is your Mystic Quest and Chrono Trigger?
>>493451602>Far as I can tell, it's a reply to the incessant anti-Yoshida shitposting that typically occurs hereSo instead the retards just spam off topic butthurt shit?How pathetic, they should go back to Twitter
>>493447742Start with making it an actual rpg.
>>493455731Mystic Quest is not on Steam. Never played it
>>493456313
>>493456313>Mystic Quest is not on Steam. Never played it>meanwhile, Demon's Soulseh?
>>493456653I'd rather just throw a snes emulator shortcut into Steam>>493456921like I did with Demon's Souls

>>493455934Final Fantasy?
why was wakka so based?
>>493455514The best.
>>493457928>basedNot at all. He's a racist
>>493457928
>>493458679there was more to it than that.he was acting on past trauma. chappu died because he used al bhed machina, therefore the al bhed are evil.ff10 has a thing about moving on and not living in the past. wakka fits that as well.
>>493448042lolis
>>493458679so he is based
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Eb8Sf-n-wiIshould i go for it or just play normally?
>>493459085best ff joke
>>493459617if you already played 10 before, yes.first time? no, use beginner grid.first time? i recommend the international ps2 version
IS ff16 dlc good or is it just uneeded heres more slop for the piggies?
>>493447162Why is OO still in the op?Also I think it's time to delete BE and 16 from the op too
>>493461004By the end of the year all 3 should be removed.BE and OO EoS'd and there isn't any more XVI content coming.
if ff16 came out when got was still liked would people have liked it more?
>>493461004>>493461145You can still play BE, retard
I'm sad that Astro Bot took GOTY from Rebirth. They really would've deserved it.
How can there be any FF couple that gayer than these two?
My wife Eiko is very cute!
>>493460080It's really good. Interesting environments and excellent boss battles, more difficult than the main game. I personally had a blast with both DLCs.
I've played VII, loved it, VIII, rough but loved it, really different to VII, IX, loved it, I cannot for the life of me get into X.
>>493447162>>493447302>Looks like your fippy bippy has been taken, Cloud. What will you do about it, I wonder...
>>493454474PENELOOOOOO
>>493459694
>>493464568I fucking love particle effects
>>493450096Why isn't OG cloud in a purple uniform?
>>493464046>I cannot for the life of me get into X.Are you playing on PC? If so, download the cheat things from github. I say cheat things, but it's like an all-in-one that does everything. This allows you to switch the audio to Japanese. The JP voices are already included in your game, I think SE just didn't map them or something, so you can't select it from the default menu, but with the mod you can change to JP voices. This really, really, really helps a lot, because Tidus and Yuna have the worst VA performance in the game if you're playing the EN version, which is unfortunate because they are the main characters.
>>493465643Get that sissy man out of here
>>493466176You forgot to turn your monitor on
VII and IX are better than X anyway so you made the right choice.
>>493466361Xhe is so corny I see the appeal in theory but that's not cute
>>493465750Me too!
i can never finish 7 i always get relatively far into the game meanwhile i can finish 9 and 6 several times. I even managed to finish 10 with no real issue but i never want to play it again
>>493466414I'm glad that they're never making that X-3 vaporware since Rebirth's flop revealed that no one buys sequels.
>>493464568>>493465750>>493466847
>>493467239>Rebirth's flop revealed that no one buys sequels.I wonder what Rebirth could have been like if Nomura didn't decide to insert Whispers into the game. The biggest pain point of the Remake is the Whispers. There are people who say it should have been a turn-based game, but people generally enjoy the combat anyway, it's only really the Whispers that are a point of contention.
>>493468034>The biggest pain point of the Remake isthe fact that its 3 games instead of one
I just want a new Dissidia game.
One last dance
>>493468496i would argue the cringe ghosts have done far more damage to ff7 remake than the 3 part splitit shouldn't have been split of course but everytime the time trannies show up i genuinely feel embarrassed
>>493468496That is another one, but I don't think it's the primary one. I've even seen some comments that enjoy that it's 3 "full" games instead of just one. Plus, if they only made the one game, you wouldn't be able to play it at all until like 2027.
Aerisu!
I liked OO, but I liked BE even more.
>>493460608What did they mean by this?

>>493468034The decision to change the story was made by KitaseStop throwing shit at Nomura
>>493474569https://game8.co/games/Final-Fantasy-VII-Remake/archives/286914.>Nomura: When I first approached Nojima to write the scenario I told him I wanted to do it in this way. Going from there, the plan was to go beyond just a remake.It's all Nomura's ideas, being (time ghost) written by Nojima.https://www.frontlinejp.net/2024/04/17/final-fantasy-vii-rebirth-post-release-interview-part-1/>The interviewer begins with asking how the story was written, and Nojima says that he wrote the plot based on requests from the scenario team, which included creative director Nomura Tetsuya and Toriyama, and then made adjustments to it based on feedback.https://www.pushsquare.com/news/2020/05/interview_final_fantasy_vii_remake_producer_and_co-director_on_development_launch_and_being_grateful_for_the_fans>Kitase: I personally envisioned quite a dramatic change overall, but our director; Tetsuya Nomura and co-director; Naoki Hamaguchi, wanted to keep the beloved aspects in the original as much as possible. Eventually the development team decided to focus on respecting the original while adding in new elements, ensuring a delicate balance between the two.What this really says is that Kitase wanted an Evangelion Rebuild situation, while Nomura wanted time jannies to tease that an Evangelion Rebuild situation could have happened, but that nothing is actually different because it's just multiverse shit, which is exactly what happened. "Keeping the beloved aspects in the orignal" such as end of Midgar, Aerith's death, basically all the bigger stuff the game is known for, while everything else was allowed to change because those other things don't actually matter to the overall story. This does make me wonder if the Tifa/Scarlet eroge slapfight is going to be in it as a "beloved aspect in the orignal", because it doesn't make a difference to the overall story, but it is a beloved aspect.
>>493447742Honestly just more customization. Accessories actually enhance and change your eikonic abilities instead of just shit like slightly more damage or a slightly lower cooldown. The DLC started making accessories that somewhat do this but that’s only at endgame and is a bandaid fix at best.
>>493475065
OO is the Concord of Final Fantasy. The game was fine enough but its character designs were so atrocious that no one wanted to play it.
just played the ff16 demo on pc and woah Joshua dies but like hes pheniox. the whole thing is coming back to life so who is this game trying to fool?
>>493478187People played it for 7 years, and it got over 1,000 more average viewers than any other of SE's gacha streams, and also 1,000 more average viewers than even Rebirth's most recent Saudi stream.
Play Ever Crisis

>>493479760>oo simp brings up rebirth out of nowhere Not beating the allegations
>>493482073What "allegations"? Also, why is it only ever forbidden to bring up Rebirth, and yet it's never forbidden to bring up OO literally out of nowhere? I was talking about official Square Enix stream viewership, and Rebirth recently had a stream. (You) were shitting out of your mouth for now reason.
>>493479740ff16 was written for 5 year olds
>>493479740They actually thought that Joshua being alive wasn’t a plot twist no one would see coming.
>>493482238OO was a good game unlike Rebirth (a bad game)
>jecht says he hopes tidus puts on muscle when he gets older in one of his video spheres>when jecht meets tidus again, he sees that he unfortunately didn't put on muscle and says "you're all bones. have you been eating right?"was this kino?
>>493479740>>493483120>>493483340Anon, he's Phoenix. It's the Final Fantasy series. I don't think it was ever supposed to be an actual plot twist, more like a "he's alive right? I mean, he's Phoenix so he has to be" kind of deal. Are the /v/ threads dying? Why are you shitters back on /ffg/?
What if the next mainline FF title stops using Roman numerals?
>>493479740>>493483921Joshua and Clive's respective reveals aren't supposed to be a surprise to the player. It's about their personal journies and coming to terms with who they really are and who they are to each other.Much like in the critically acclaimed FFXIII when the party realizes that they are being manipulated by the Fal'cie but decide to tread down that path irregardless, bonding and growing together in the process.The 10/10 FFXVI's narrative is one of thought provoking self discovery and a deep introspective, similar to FFIX's, that touches not only on the self but our place in the grand scheme and the consequences of our choices to our present kin and for those that walk after us.
>>493483921its literally treated as not only a huge plot twist but clive "killing" joshua is his entire fucking character trait and the climax of his """""""arc"""""""" is him accepting that he killed joshuaexcept the audience already knows and is shown joshua is still alive BEFORE THAT EVEN HAPPENS
>>493454474You didn't answer his question, why can't you be normal? Also see >>493447162
>>493479654cute coyote hagnot even her can convince me watch a viii playthrough, game kinda sucks, I watched her other FF runs though
>>493486317You sound incredibly upset about nothing, anon.
>>493482238He's very defensive and has no argument.
>>493482073GOT HER
>>493485205Based and well said.XVI's story tends to filter those that watched it on youtube and/or easymode skimmers with only a surface level understanding of the compelling narrative it weaves.
>>493485205>deep introspective>self-discoveryThe protagonist does not even try to question his views on politics, bearers and so on, as a result his views do not change from the beginning to the end of the game. There is not even an attempt to re-evaluate or even analyse his beliefs about Valistaea.The arc of the protagonist's psychological growth ends in the first half of the game btw.The main antagonist's plan is not even theoretically capable of shaking the main character's views, as it obviously does not promise anything good for mankind.Very deep, very introspective, very "self-discovery". Press R3 + L3 to accept the truth lol.
Vaan is such a cool protagonist.
>>493486882what do you like about him?12 wasn't really my thing but i like reading others' takes on ff games so i'm all ears, buddy
>>493487154He's literally me.
Welp, seems like they are going to give the Masamune a backstory, we need to start to get angry
>>493486478Yes bad writing does annoy me, and ff16 has the worst writing in FF history
>>493487653>anon sees that Joshua is Phoenix, in a Final Fantasy game>he thinks "oh obviously he's not actually dead because he's Phoenix">the game acts as if Joshua is dead>it's revealed that Joshua, being Phoenix, is not actually dead, just as non thought>"OMGGGGG WTF WHAT A SHITTY PLOT TWIST EVERYONE KNEW HE WAS ALIVE ARE YOU KIDDING ME THIS IS SHITTY WRITING ITS A FINAL FANTASY GAME OF COURSE HE'S ALIVE AAIIIIIIIIIIEEEEEEEEEEEEEE I AM SHAKING AND SEETHING RIGHT NOW YOSHITPISSSSSS"Sound like a (You) problem, anon.
didn't read lol
>>493488070He doesn't survive because he's phoenix you retardhe survives because AN OFFSCREEN SECRET ORDER OF NINJAS FUCKING SAVES HIM OFFSCREEN AND HE'S SUDDENLY REVEALED TO BE ALIVE AFTER THE 13 YEAR TIMESKIPTHEN CLIVE HAS HIS MAJOR CHARACTER MOMENT WHERE HE ACCEPTS THAT HE KILLED JOSHUA EXCEPT THE FUCK PLAYER ALREADY KNOWS HE DIDN'T DIE SO THE ENTIRE SEQUENCE IS UTTERLY POINTLESS AND A WASTE OF TIMEAND CLIVE HAS ZERO (0) CHARACTER GROWTH OR ANYTHING EVEN PERTAINING TO HIS CHARACTER BEYOND THAT POINT ITS SO BADLY FUCKING WRITTEN ITS LIKE MAEHIRO TRIED TO WRITE ARDYN HIS CONSTANT REWRITES EXCEPT HE FORGOT TO MAKE IT MAKE SENSE OR MATTERJOSHUA BEING PHOENIX HAD LITERALLY NOTHING TO EVEN DO WITH HIM SECRETRLY BEING ALIVE WHICH MAKES IT EVEN FUCKING WORSE
I did read all of that
>>493488609>He doesn't survive because he's phoenix you retardIt's a Final Fantasy game, anon, and he's Phoenix. I thought we already agreed on this? Are you retarded?
One might assume that Clive's entire story could be seen as a test by hard times and terrible circumstances of his innocence and the purity of his good beliefs, but in reality his beliefs have never been seriously tested. It is partly (but only partly) for this reason that Ultima is cartoonishly evil and unwilling to let any humans into his new world. It's also the reason why Cid offers Clive everything on a platter at the beginning of the story. For the same reason we don't see the events of the first timeskip, the most difficult for Clive's personal destiny, when he is enslaved. This is to avoid creating a circumstance in which Clive begins to reflect and question, even a little, his views of the world, and the player begins to doubt Clive. XVI is characterised by utter psychological superficiality precisely because the protagonist never once seriously faces any real opposition to his wholesome views on the evils of bigotry and slavery throughout the story.That said, I still hang on to the last scene with the book as being thematically extremely significant to the story of XVI and noticeably deepening the meaning of Clive's entire journey. I hope the book really symbolizes a reinterpretation of what the place of fantasy/magical/mythical is in the secular world of the new Valisthea: Clive, as a chronicler of his own world, by collecting into his compendium the images (eikons) and stories of various great and ordinary people, ultimately leaves as a heritage this piece of “magic” in the form of a fantastic story to the new secular world, thus reinterpreting the very concept of “magic” from hypostasized one -- magic as fireballs, — to a more allegorical one — magic as a fantasy story, as something that exists in the domain of imagination. After Clive's feat, despite the absence of magic in the hypostasized sense, there is still room for magical ways of thinking, fantasy and imagination, hence the title of the book and the children playing eikons.
yoshitroons at it again
>>493488609XVI was kino thoughSound like you just wanted something to seethe about
In FFX Fayth summoned Tidus to relieve them of the imposed burden of dreaming Dream Zanarkand. It was thanks to him that their never-ending fantasy became their final one.In FFXIII, the Fal'Cie yearn to return to their father, but do not actually know if he is beyond the Etro's Gate. So their ill-founded dreams of the ‘gleaming light of Divinity beyond’ are quite literally their final fantasy.In XVI, magic is described as ‘the art of channeling aether to make one's imagination manifest’. Thus Ultimas' Raise meant to be their final act of imagination, their final fantasy.LOL :D XD
>>493486705How is the narrative any different when playing on easy mode?
I really like this Vanille-tiger.
>>493488609Correct. Same thing with Clive potentially being alive after the ending. It completely invalidates the weight of Gav finally accepting that he’s now Cid. XVI is just kinda poorly written.
>>493486874His views on politics, bearers and such do develop throughout the game and are influenced significantly by the people along his journey.He's ambivalent at best toward the plight of bearers and doesn't want anything to do with Cid's goals for saving the world. Clive's views shaped by his upbringing are challenged every step of the way even in the fight with Barnabus and Ultima where he finalizes his terms for a world on humanity's terms and makes the harsh decision that removes the blight in the end. He even becomes a fucking writer by the end of the game. To say he doesn't develop and grow as a person and expand his views throughout the entire game is disingenuous nonsense.You need to really take your time with a replay on hard mode before you resume shitposting, friend.
So people want FF to be successful in Japan without releasing in Japan?

>>493495076Illusion of Gaia is one of the best games on SNES. It is a much better character driven narrative than VI is, and it came out before VI and also has better graphics than VI.
>>493495076>>493495759Not a Final Fantasy game
>>493495895I really wish we still had Squaresoft and Enix competing for the RPG market. Instead of games like Illusion of Gaia or 7th Saga, we have things like Various Daylife and Dungeon Encounters.
>>493496105Why do you always try to derail my thread with off-topic games?
>>493496483Proof?
>my thread
>>493496105Well, SE is competing with Sega right now. That's why their games are full of action slop.
>>493497360I don't think you understand what the word "competing" means, and you are probably a zoomer who wasn't around for the good old days to even know what the Squaresoft/Enix market was like.
>>493495895Some final fantasy games aren't labeled as final fantasy. The most obvious of which is Chrono Trigger which was released as part of the Final Fantasy Anthology for PS.

It's not normal for grown-ass adults to have this much of a vendetta against something because it wasn't what they wanted. It's been years already. Not moving on at this point indicates a problem. This kind of behavior is for people who are mentally-stunted and aren't mentally-well.
>>493530659Did someone disagree with it?
>>493531026Worse. They agreed with it.

>>493525139Yes. But it's also more of an action RPG than traditional jrpg
>>493535110It's amazing how much anger it causes. Shitposters can't enter the thread anymore without knowing naysayers won't be tolerated. I wonder if any other generals do the same.
>>493533928How could you know it's not going to happen? Unless...>>493538224Maybe other generals aren't as insecure
>>493538456Real insecurity comes from being butthurt over the post, as stated earlier.

>>493540981Yes we are all Final Fantasy brand ambassadors here and influencers.Negativity is not allowed in the Final Fantasy general. unironically

Is it over for Rebirth?
>>493542250>Spamming the same shit is what is mocked.Don't say that, it sounds like you're criticizing the based pasta.I personally love how much it riles up anti-FF posters before they start their tired old routines. My one concern is that someone might start reposting it ironically to make us look thin-skinned.
>>493530894Nobody was even posting about IV Meds. NOW.
>>493544691boomer-san really really likes IVplease understand
>>493544691But it felt like they were obsessively hating it. They're the ones who have mental problems.
>>493544484It seems so.Underperformed other Final Fantasy titles and reviewed poorly compared to its betters.Very sad.
>>493545025So many times I posted about how the exclusivity deals were a genius move from SE, securing them huge sums of money. I mocked anyone who said multiplat would be a better option.The hardest thing for me is admitting I was wrong. But I was.I was wrong.I was wrong.
>>493546003It was pure hubrisClassic out of touch SE and SnoyStill pretending it's the 90s yet pushing DEI slop every chance they get.I hope it was a wake up call for them but I feel like I've said that with every major FF release since XIII lol
>>493544484>>493545025Is it really over for Final Fantasy?
>>493549254It's only getting started. FFXVII 95 metacritic with hamagodchi in charge

You mean Itsuno.

Wow, some of you guys REALLY need to read the pasta
>>493549765Thank fuck he got fired. Asshole ruined DD2 and still won’t apologize for DMC2
>>493550596shit bait, hamagodchi is just getting started
XVI was as confused about its genre as most of its fans are confused about their gender.
The only people I've ever seen be confused about XVI are people who spend 18 hours of every single day of their life shitposting about Yoshida.
>>493549254As long as Nomura never gets promoted there is still hope for FF to survive.

>>493549621>sell poorly>/v/ says they're waiting for pc>eta 10 days>no hypeWtf. Where did all the pc-when-bros go?
>>493552503I'm hoping that he gets let go after Part 3. Or at least put back into this character designer corner, where he just keeps making Sora and Tifa over and over again.
>>493553063In the corner crying about reality calling their rig trash.
>>493553063>pc-when-bros>sLol. Blaming exclusivity was just a stalling tactic to give them some room to breathe. Next cope will be that not releasing it simultaneously is what caused it to flop on Steam.

>>493554198Is barry a VIIRgin?
Was this Final Fantasy game any good?
>>493553063There's no hype because we already know the exact type of game it is. Similar to there being no hype for the PS5 version of Starfield when that eventually comes out. Everyone already knows the game is painfully mediocre.
>>493554374LOL no>>493556113better than XVI for sure
>>493556307stay losing
>>493556539Starfield outsold XVI btw
>>493553063Most people filtered the lgbt tag on steam so they don't even know it's coming out.

>>493556027>Is barry a VIIRgin?Rebirth is literally XV, but good.
>>493557112true, it's really a shame that it couldn't outsell FFXVI

>>493574169>>493573297So nobody cares about your opinion? Got it
>>493447302Why this post makes people so upset?
>>493575152Because it tells them we don't tolerate negativity here, and that's all they want to bring.
>>493575152Spamming the same shit is what is mocked
>>493571920I hope her and everyone she got hired on through diversity get fired and cry about it on Twitter for years. They have done irreparable damage to XIV.
>>493574169>But everyone cares about what PSX Brasil have to sayNot even this. Also who?
>>493574975gottem>>493575534They won't be fired. We had a good run with XIV but now the rot has set in and they won't be able to root it out. Yoshida has already moved CS3 on to other games.
XVI is 7/10 ishThe moments that are 9/10 in the story cutscenes and in the fun bosses are almost always deeply undercut by the lack of roleplaying, lack of any decision making in combat, the lack of party members, and a complete failure to build a word the player is interested in exploring inbetween setpieces.This is the perfect way to encapsulate XVI as a product:The Malboro is called Morbol (yet another thing they have taken from FFXI and XIV wholecloth) but it doesn't even actually have the Bad Breath. Because theres no RPG mechanics, no status effects in the game. Sure, it does an attack that looks like Bad Breath. Just like the game is constantly doing things that "look" like Final Fantasy. But it's not really Bad Breath. Morbol is one of the first enemies in the game unlike the Malboro that is often encountered late into your journey. Instead of being a dangerous threat who can afflict nasty status effects and kill your whole party quickly, he's literally a chump and a tutorial boss pushover in the worst way imaginable. Boring fight, boring boss arena.In XVI, they take beloved and historic FF elements, and they deface them. Strip them down of their essence, and shove them all in together because "they just have to".Just like they "had to" shove the Moogle into the game even though they didn't design the game around Moogles even existing. They thought their setting was "too dark" and "grim". They were forced to put the Moogle from XIV into the game because a woman forced them to.There's another Morbol as a hunt later in the game, but he functions almost exactly the same. There is no Bad Breath, his mechanics are nothing but visual fluff.Creatively bankrupt vision, complete lack of care for the series gameplay mechanics that have been developed decades, and an overworld that is less fulfilling to explore than XIII.
>>493527536No, but the person who hates getting called out by it would most likely do w/e they can to destroy it. It honestly needs to be put and kept in the OP.
>>493577302it will be put in as soon as OO is permanently removed.
>>493549621you really set them off with this one king
XVI is a fun game with a lot of stupid decisions that kept it held back massively from it's true potential to connect to players. Forgotten faster than perhaps any mainline FF game in history.
>>493577302I'm going to make sure it's always at the top of each thread. Haters don't stand a chance. Can we make it a part of the OP permanently?
>>493577302>>493577935This is a great idea
>>493572270Sounds like an MMO. Who asked for this?
Do any other generals start with a warning to dislikers, or are we the first ones to think of it?
>>493576898See >>493477417
>>493578209We're the first general brave enough to stand up to the dislikers and to call them out
>>493578179>Who asked for this?XIVfags, or at least that's what SE believes.
>>493577557In your dreams kid
>>493577302You just know they're screaming and crying with rage every time they see it kekIt honestly needs to be put and kept in the OP.
>>493578209/khg/ has had a warning message to report and ignore a shitposting faggot for the last 4 years.
>>49355698610 more days until the narrative shifts again.
>>493579479We need to do the same but for anyone criticizing FF. Especially XVI or Rebirth. Anyone doing that is only here to shitpost so we're better off without them.
>>493573859Why reply to your own post? You already have it saved...
>>493579734Imagine this place with all the dislikers gone... Heaven.
>>493579803I get very few (you)s hereI'm convinced you're all just samefagging arguing with your schizo selves>>493579875this but unironically
>>493579803But I didn't reply to my own post.
>>493579875No thanks, I don't want another /xivg/.
>>493580265this tbհ
>>493579875It would be just like /lozg/.
Look at them. They're already terrified of >>493447302 being added to the OP.Total Disliker Death imminent
>>493578209The following generals have a message in the OP to ignore shitposters /exeg//drg//khg//gsg/And these generals have a spam filter list in the OP pasta/lolg//owg//smtg/pg/I think it's time for /ffg/ to add a message in the OP pasta
>>493580265so much this honestly
>XVI flops>suddenly /ffg/ adds filtersyoshicultbros...are we thinskinned?
>>493580827>I think it's time for /ffg/ to add a message in the OP pastaExcellent idea. We should summarize this post tho >>493447302
>>493580827Who or what should we warn people about?Criticism of XVI and 7R obviously needs to go, but what else?
>>493581007>>493581050I think all negativity unless it's aimed towards XV or OO should be considered shitposting, honestly
>>493580502A single person dumping his fanart folder while talking to himself until he calls asleep and the thread dies?

>>493581684>don't censor me! just let me spam the same shit and making my whole personality disliking stuff!!
>>493582000Once he starts seeing that pasta at the top of every thread he's going to be so pissed lolWe should have done this years ago
>"nobody cares about the opinion of some literallywho">THIS IS CENSORSHIP!! WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA *shitting pants noises*
>>493581684>the twins
>>493581684The twins felt called out by this post.
>>493582198The age of dislikers is coming to an end on /ffg/.Can we workshop a way to include >>493447302 in the OP from now on as a warning to dislikers?
The rule of 2 keeps happening and I feel like I'm closing in on the reason why.
>>493584345>shitposter knows his days are numbered
>>493581007>We should summarize this post thoNah just add the whole sentence at the top of the pastaIn the worst case scenario then add to this:Remember that you can dislike stuff without making it part of your personality. Report and ignore shitposters that only spam and argue with others.
>>493585919>that only spam and argue with others.how would you know who's discussing FF and a post that makes you upset?
>>493585919This
>>493585919Perfect. The days of anons shittalking XVI are coming to an end.
>>493585919Probably going to need to remove a few games from the OP to make room for it.
>>493585919Is there a way to make clear that those posts didn't make us mad? We just want to get rid of them because they're interrupting the FF discussions we're here to have.
>>493585919If you put that specifically in the OP, wouldn't that make it liable to get deleted for announcing report?
>>493586291It's easy to tell the difference. If they dunk on XV it's discussion. If it's XVI or VIIR then you can tell hating stuff is their whole personality and action needs to be taken.
>>493572270Kek you're in for it now buddy. You really stirred the hornet's nest. There is still time to retract your criticisms and apologize, but you're still getting deported.
>>493587250this but unironically
>>493587250What about XIII?
Final Fantasy??
>>493586291There's a clear difference between >I don't really like ff16 because storywise it can be described as "Lots of telling, little showing". Everything we know about the characters and their motivations are told to us by the characters themselves in monologues instead of showing it to us with actions which would it have been more impactful. Gameplay wise is a great action game but I dislike that each new entry is distancing themselves from its trunk base rpg roots vs>FF16 Looks like a PS3 game! FF16 is not a REAL final fantasy! FF16 Combat is just mash X To Win! FF16 Has too many boring cutscenes! FF16 flopped! FF16 killed the series!
>>493588767I don't see where a single lie was said.
>>493585919Alright it has been decided that the next thread will have a warning message
>>493586904OO and BE will stay in the OP
>>493588767sounds like you're just soft.
>>493587041>wouldn't that make it liable to get deleted for announcing report?No? If that was true then why are these generals still alive and not deleted?>>493580827
>>493588767Can we agree posts like that are okay if they're about XV though?
>>493589315Also about Demakes. Those games are ass.
>>493588834Thanks to let us know that you're a shitposter that pollutes these threads with low quality shitposts
>>493589424>Thanks to let us knowGMS!
>>493588960From now on if criticisms aren't longwinded enough to be considered real posts there's going to be trouble.
>>493588834>I don't see where a single lie was said.Right here:>Gameplay wise is a great action game
If >>493447302 gets added to the OP it will be a major victory and a huge blow to the anons whose whole personality is hating stuff. Threads are about to become so much better.
>>493589617kek gottem again
Final Fantasy XVI, regrettably, appears to be reminiscent of the graphical and technical standards typically associated with the PlayStation 3 era, rather than embodying the cutting-edge innovation one would expect from a contemporary iteration of the franchise. This latest installment, unfortunately, does not embody the quintessential essence of what has historically defined a true Final Fantasy experience. The combat mechanics, lamentably, seem to reduce the gameplay to a simplistic affair of incessantly mashing the X button to achieve victory, thus undermining the complexity and strategic depth traditionally associated with the series. Additionally, the narrative structure is marred by an overabundance of protracted and tedious cutscenes that detract from the overall engagement and immersion. The reception of Final Fantasy XVI has been notably underwhelming, and it is not an exaggeration to suggest that its shortcomings have severely impacted the series, potentially signaling a critical juncture in its storied legacy.
It's a sad state of affairs when great games like Rebirth, XVI and XIV generate so much seething after SE fumbling so hard prior to these. Their execs must be so confused right now and I don't blame them at all.It would take a master baiter to sort out all the shitposting from genuine criticism and praise for these titles.
>>493590635BOOOM GOTTEM AGAINput that in the op lmao
>>493590803I see it happening for other franchises too. Was surprised to see there was a dedicated smear campaign for the space marine 2 game
>>493589617lol
>>493591059>put that in the op lmaoBrilliant idea. We should summarize though. Maybe this part:>Final Fantasy XVI has been notably underwhelming, and it is not an exaggeration to suggest that its shortcomings have severely impacted the series, potentially signaling a critical juncture in its storied legacy.and include a pastebin link for the rest.
>>493591524Probably going to need to remove a few games from the OP to make room for it.
>the shitposters are now training chatgpt to hate FFXVIso very sad
>>493590635>>493591524>NOOOOOOOO I WAS SUPPOSED TO BE CONTROLLING THE NARRATIVE>XVI IS A GOTY 10/10 MASTERPIECE
This is so sad to watch.This post >>493447302 and the possibility that a warning message could be added to the OP has mindbroken the underage shitposter
>>493592054its just yoshida troons being yoshida troons
>>493590635Too many words and the vibes are toxic. Can we put a part in the op about keeping criticisms to 280 characters and they have to be constructive.
>most on topic ffg thread
>>493591967True it is. Thank you for agreeing.
>spamming low effort hatred on XVI makes the thread red flag you as a shitposter>thinking writing out short essays (copypasta'd from the various reviews a bunch of people (alt accounts) thinking it will bypass thisHave you tried fixating on something else?
>>493590635This + LGBTQ tag = Filtered game.
Okay I know we said we're going to ignore shitposters, but he's really pissing me off so can we just keep talking about them until next thread and maybe include something in the op allowing us to complain for 10-15 posts before getting reported?
>>493589786>>493592054A *lot* of posts seem to be getting filtered on my end, but these ones didn't get filtered. If /ffg/ is actually melting down about being told that hating things is not a personality, then I can't really say that I'm surprised, just a bit disappointed in humanity.
>>493580827>>493580717AAAIIIEEE NO NO NO STOP THIS AT ONCE
I like XVI
>>493580827Hmm... you know, you can call me a schizo if you want, but I simply must wonder if there is even a remote possibility that the reason these generals (and /ffg/) need a disclaimer about shitposters might all be the same person or person(s). I am inclined to believe that /khg/, /smtg/, and even /lolg/ might have some overlap in posters.
I hate XVI
>>493598256MODDDDS HE DIDNT USE ENOUGH WORDS AND HE DIDNT SAY A NICE THING ABOUT XVI TO BALANCE THE BAD THING
