OMFG

watching arrested development GIF
 
I'm pretty geeked for this, can't wait to continue the adventure with these characters and hear the music.

Preordered it yesterday. Wife dominates the 4k Bravia so I'm gonna have to do some troubleshooting to see if I can get a nice crisp image on the virtual screen for PSVR2. Can't remember if it enables VRR, HDR, 4k for flat games. I love my plasma but this game deserves the best that I can give it.

Thankfully 😂

Tits are gross. Why do they even exist.

Vii Remake was piss easy I was legit mad I cant choose hard from the get go.
Expect the same here. Square wants as many people to finish the game.




Same they/them/it poster. imagine having a panic attacks playing something as whimsical as final fantasy vii.

I don't remember a single user from my days on Era...except this person.

My god, all posts were / are about something being wrong, keeps flooding PS studios topics just to say Sony's output sucks now, but never manages to buy another platform, there's literally something wrong with everything. Seems like nothing has changed.

Made a crappy phPBB forum once ... once.
I unironically think half of these posters have to be AI or bots prompted with "find offense and misogyny in literally anything brought up in conversation, no matter how blatant the mental gymnastics to work it in are,"

Like that Google image generator AI that actively will find any loophole it can to fuck off itself out of generating Caucasian people.
I think if you have an opinion that is slightly different to the mod line, you're banned so everyone has to tow the line, be seen to be 'offended' while secretly fapping themselves silly. They'll claim not to buy it and then do their very best to hide their online play history from all the other needy twats on that cult of website. It's not even a forum its some kind of cult.

Let’s be real if Sony purchased Square and had their way then well… See the “beautiful” ladies of Horizon, Spider-Man 2, and of course Last of Us 2.

So do your part everyone and buy this game so they can keep their freedom for as long as possible. Before anyone responds with Stellar Blade, no they aren’t a PlayStation studio and it’s just published by them.
 
I went to the special screening of FF7 Advent Children that Square teased on their Twitter with “special surprises for Rebirth fans”.

Here is the video my unbelievable night:

You can blame Sweet Baby Inc.

Agreed, Sony aren't saints either. They uglify and censor just as much. Any studio that hires Sweet Baby Inc can fuck off. I didn't buy any of the projects they were involved in including SM2, GoW R and AW2.

Never even heard of them before. Then again I also skipped the games you listed so maybe that’s why.

What gets annoying is when LGBT people try to re-imagine established straight characters.

It is like how Doctor Who is suddenly gay.

I heard there was some combat simulator before starting the game so you can refamilarize yourself with the combat.

Is this true? Because I was struggling in the demo.

In the second part of the demo, the Junon portion, Chadley has like 8 combat tutorials in VR in the form of several round battles.

119 reviews on metacritic and not a single mixed review. Universal acclaim across the board. I'm sure some will creep in, Edge and a handful down the line, but there hasn't been a single other PS5 game which has had that volume of reviews with every single one positive.
Edge scored a 7 for the first game, so this one should be 7 or 8 I reckon (they can't stand overbloated open worlds, and I'd tend to agree)

It is kind of annoying that they release the game right at the end of the month.

Still, you get the demo.

A Japanese dev that routinely proudly names AAA products meant to make money with titles like "358/2 Days," and "Birth By Sleep - 0.2: A Fragmentary Passage," is being discussed here. Do you honestly think they'd pass up the opportunity to release a game on the leap day of a leap year? I imagine the endorphins felt in the studio were akin to solving seven rubix cubes blindfolded waist deep in jelly or whatever the fuck pornhub told me their game shows were like.

It's like the sunrise. It's like the tide.

Here's the same clip but with EN subs.


Why is that most Japanese devs design most characters with the most flawless hair and skin routine ever? It doesn't even look like skin anymore. Like surely there's a middle ground we can reach between making the characters ugly and making them perfect. I think CDPR are ones with the best balance where characters can be hot, but not too perfect if you look close enough, so I can see small scars or at least some skin pores.

I'm loving the completely serious reemergal of the argument that women in videogames shouldn't dress sexy because they can't consent to it and they are thralls of the pervy dick beating Japanese devs.

Like...bitch, take your meds. They can't consent to being in the game period. They can't consent to being thrust into a journey fraught with danger and loss. This is like is Biblical Egypt shit. They can't consent to having that materia in their armor. What if you give Tifa a Fire Materia but she's like Rydia and is balls-inside-out butthole clenching afraid of fire because a member of Malice Mizer turned her house and father into a "magic at 3 AM, gone WRONG," ?

Purple people eating slave drivers and blatant denial of the trauma of these poor, dressed in rags women saddled by large breasts and shouldering all the trauma of pyrotechnics gone wrong thanks to Gackt's best friend.

Be better.

Or fuck off into oblivion.

That is the rule of modern internet.

Is a female character sexy? Its because of pervy men and making eye candy for men. Lesbian/Bisexual women don't exist in their world. They don't matter, its only trying to appease men.

Is a male character sexy? Well that is just because of male empowerment. Straight/Bisexual women don't exist and aren't the target audience. Neither are gay/bisexual men. Its only to empower men and live out their power fantasies.

It is always the men that are at fault in these mental rejects' minds.

Sony dont have a saying in character design, all these ugly female characters are coming from western studios all over the place, be studios from Sony or not. Naughty Dog have made pretty hot characters like Chloe From Uncharted and they are publishing Stellar Blade. If they had a problem with beautifull and sexy female characters they would not pick Stellar Blade as an exclusive.

It's a setup meant to benefit absolutely no one but self hating non customers, absolutely. When the only tool you've ever seen is a knife, you're gonna stab everything.

They hate straigh males so much that anything a straigh male might find arousing, is automatic problematic for them.

Women dont need to be lesbian or bi to enjoy sexy and beautifull characters. Alot of female youtubers i saw reacting to Stellar Blade are straight and just want to kill shit while wearing sexy outfits with a beautifull character.

Most reviews are basically:
"If you ignore the bad parts, it's ok. It's not great, but it isn't bad either. The story is convoluted and ruins the original. Combat is clunky. Oh, btw 10/10 GOTY"
