Im half gaymer,lol.
I'm Bi, so I'm a gaymer. If any of you 360 players want to add me, feel free to do so, I currently have a few slots open in my friends list.
Aloha to all the new folk who have posted in the last 3 pages or so. XD
So few Gaymers on PS3 for me to play with. (That came out wrong...) You make me sad Defiance community, you make me sad. :<
And to the newcomers, welcome to the thread. Luckily for you we don't bite unless asked. :>
Ah Versus XIII, the only Final Fantasy with a XIII in the title that I find remotely appealing. <3
Pretty much a guarantee at this stage that it'll get pushed onto next-gen hardware rather than being released on current gen, which is unfortunate because I'm after the experience, not an extra two or three layers of photo-realism. The obsession with visuals over value this generation has astounded me. Not just from players but from developers as well...
But this isn't the right place for that little rant, so I'll just shut up now. :P
I'm on PS3. User name is Fuzzy_Skinner.
Not to start a "fanboy" debate, but I love my PS3. I'm part of the old school (first system was a NES) so I naturally prefer Sony consoles. The controller is a throw back to SNES/NES and not all bulky and awkward like Xbox. I've never owned a Microsoft console and doubt I ever will. I'll admit Halo and Left4Dead series is fun, but now that bungie is spreading their wings and Valve is doing their own thing I don't see a reason to get an Xbox unless you're one of those graphic obsessed types. Gameplay is everything to me.
Not mention I don't want to get nickled and dimed just to play online games.
I thankfully have never played any of the XIII games. I heard enough to know I'd absolutely detest the first one with a passion. :/
A shame that this generation has probably lost Versus. I don't doubt it'll be a good game, what little gameplay footage has been shown looked absolutely fantastic.
I was so disappointed by FF13. Been playing the series since the original and the only installment worse than 13 was 8. I wish they would have built upon FF12 which I thought was one of the best in the series (of course 6/3 is the best).
I'd try FF13-2 if I didn't have such a terrible time playing FF13. I don't get why SquareEnix is milking 13 so much, it's such a weak title in the first place.
I'm just waiting for FF15. I'd give FF14 a shot when it ports to consoles, but I've heard it's pretty crappy MMO and even FF11 is better.
One here!!
Xbox 360 here GT- Mosdefinite1 I'm on whenever I can be, friend me i have been looking for others to play defiance with!!
Add me Mosdefinite1
Just a little thought.
I think the FF games need to come into the next generation while keeping the traditional charm of the series. Perhaps a free choice/free roam type FF game would be quite good if done right. Maybe make it a spin-off the main series, but I think it's something they should consider.
FF 15 is supposed to be...like...hackn slash I think or free move...it's hard to explain. BUT The Witcher 3 is going to be (I think they said) twice the size of Skyrim, kill load time and have it flow fluidly with no pauses and such...could be wrong maybe xD;
Edit: Akataras advent children...wasn't that bad. Have you seen Advent Children Complete? They added what they cut from the original...it made it better but didnt change much.
Games need to start copying each other again, but in a good way, not like they do at the moment. :P Oh, that shooter has regenerating health and a bland grey and brown filter over everything, we need to do the same. Everything is supposed to be gritty now, lets grime it up a bit... bleh.
Dragon's Dogma did a lot of things right when it came to RPGs for me, as far as combat goes, it was how I hoped the dragon fights in Skyrim would be. I shouldn't be dithering about on the ground waiting for it to hover long enough to shoot it down, I should be clinging onto it for dear life as it flies around and I slash my way across its body till it crashes into the dirt. If a monster is huge and I can run, jump and attack freely, let me climb it and stab it in the eye if I want to. I'm supposed to be a grand hero or an adventurer half the time, not a moldy boot that can't hold on to anything.
Yes, Airships and open map would be nice again. As I said bring back some of these classic features and themes FF fans loved, while at the same time bring the series into the modern era. It would be cool to have free choice, even if it was binary. Could you imagine having the choice to help the resistance OR help the empire in a FF game? Even such a little thing would add serious replay value. They need to worry about gameplay again, not how many FMV sequences they can jam into the game.
I never bothered watching Advent children because I just didn't care. I find Final Fantasy VII overrated and most it's popularity (IMO) is because it was the first FF title most gamers played and possibly the first RPG many gamers played. It's not a bad game, I just think when stacked up against it's FF peers it's not that impressive.
I plan to check out Witcher 3.
Dragons Dogma is one of the best games Capcom has done in a long...long time. Ill be rebuying DD: Dark Arisan. It's the same game but they edited a lot of it to make it simpler and they added the huge expansion.
Already have the expansion pre-ordered here. :P
Been playing the original recently, making a few tweaks to my main Arisen and pawn. It's a pity Capcom had to be all shifty with the DLC, but I can't just let DD fade away. It did so many things right that I want other RPGs to copy it. Could you imagine how much more awesome Skyrim would've been with a similar battle system? :3
Either way I can't wait to throw myself into the depths of Bitterblack Isle, after I've finished off my currently playthrough, I'll restart for Dark Arisen. I loved Dragon's Dogma to bits and it's one of the very few games that I bothered to get a Platinum trophy for. (Because how little I care about trophies and gamerscore can't be measured in words. I don't think there's a better way of saying '**** all' in the entire dictionary. :P )
You don't have to restart that's the good thing! And you get a...stone thing that you can pick up and reuse 100k ...forgot the pawn money thing...sadness.
I haven't trusted Capcom in a while so maybe I'm missing out on the title you guys are discussing. Just so many of their games over the last decade have been crappy (not to mention they hate Megaman now).
Rift Crystals. :P Which will apparently have a lot more uses in Dark Arisen, along with infinite Ferry Stones for fast travel... even though I already have over fifty of them in storage...
There are supposed to be a few other bonuses for returning players that I can't remember right now.
I also thought you had to restart the story, but you got to keep your level and gear like a regular restart after clearing it. :P
They may well be slimy gits and make awful marketing decisions and yes, they tend to be greedy idiots rather frequently, but Dragon's Dogma is one game I constantly encourage people to support. If only so that a better company can make a better game with the same style of combat, but I couldn't stand to see the idea of climbing gigantic enemies to take them down along with an active combat system for an RPG simply vanish into the mists of videogame history. :<
The combat was everything I'd hoped Skyrim's would be but wasn't.
DD won't disappear they know it has potential...DMC reboot had potential but it was just eh. In DD I can remember getting the gold idol or egg...from chasing the little girl near the beginning...I remember it bc I had to restart it 3+times...
Hi ya'll. If anyone would like to add me my gamer tag for XBL is InboundsStorm60. I guess I should give my stats also. I am "bi" or as someone posted earlier "greedy". Lol. It is cool to see a thread like this. Good to meet all of you.
