You are probably right. Just sucks feeling like I would need a PC to overcome this. Would just be better if they stopped buying up developers and having them make console exclusive titles.

That's Microsofts gameplan because Sony is killing them in console sales.

Oh I am well aware of that and it sucks for gamers. I could see people just using a PC before buying an XBox so the gain for Microsoft could be minimal.

It isn't so much that, it's that if Sony wants shit like COD or Bethesda games on the playstation Microsoft gets a cut.

I’m balls deep into it as well, feels like a lot of button mashing for a FF game but I’m really digging how they made it all flow so smoothly. It seems a little easyish compared to prior versions but not sure, I do like the ability to retry with the boss having decreased life compared to the starting point. Makes it easier for a story mode but less strategic than the old versions. Strategy seems pretty basic however I haven’t gotten too deep into customization except for weapons.

The game gave me some rings at the beginning of the game so I just equipped them immediately and moved on with the game without reading what they were. So then I got another item and when I went to see what it was I realized that the 3 rings were for basically super easy mode. One auto combos, another auto evades and another one auto heals. So I got rid of those and the battles added more difficulty. There's also a gameplay setting that changes from Story mode (easy mode) to action mode (more difficult) as well. There are so many settings.

I like that you can reset your abilities at any time. I pretty much have my build down now and I'm not changing that much.

Yeah, I’m in the harder mode and haven’t used those rings just because the intro talked about what they did. I’m happy with the current difficulty. Had some really good close boss/hunt battles so far.

Did you get to the S tier bounties yet? Those are tough.

Haven’t gotten a S one yet, did two As so far and definitely a fun fight. There’s a S on the list I haven’t tried yet

Yeah, those items/settings were in the demo. Gave me a good opportunity to mess around with different options.

Beat FF16 a while ago. Unfortunately the game peaks well before the credits roll. For quite a while it was at a 9.5 out of 10. Ended up about an 8 or so. Still a contender for game of the year I bet but not the runaway I thought it'd be.

It is kinda funny to see Sony complaining about Microsoft exclusives, since Sony is one of the worst at it.

That was the main one I was talking about. He's no joke. Took me 6 tries.
