    So I’ve come back to DQXI and I find it hilarious how both it and FFXV, games I’m playing back to back, do the FFVI World og Ruin thing. Neither does it as effectively for a number of reasons, but it’s still funny. Like is this a trope that’s made a comeback recently or did these two games must happen to have that

    Well yeah, that’s why I said I trust you I do still find it funny though, how the internet be sometimes. I definitely do want to play it one day. I’ll just need to buy it and have the time

    While I do trust you, it’s still kind of weird that you’re the only person I’ve ever seen speak positively of it

    In unrelated news, I’ve decided Naoshi Mizuta is an underrated composer

    Yeah, another thing with the Witcher they could copy is quality over quantity. And while I largely agree with you, I think Xenoblade X makes much more sense in terms of giving more side content than main content, since in that game where the main plot is so decentralized the side quests kind of become the point

    I think the main gripe people have with XV’s world is tied directly to the car. Since they had a car that can travel far, the world had to be bigger, but also didn’t really have to be too filled out, so many criticized it as barren. Now, I personally didn’t mind that since it made it feel unique, but I feel that with XVI, since this is a very barebones medieval setting, I doubt they’d go the same route. So chances are it’ll still feel more compact. And tbh I still think XV’s was pretty well-made. It was just kinda dumb how the majority of the quests and exploration were pretty much made for the postgame instead of being more organically integrated into the main plot. The Witcher 3 was perfect at this since it was literally impossible to tell the main quest from the side quests sometimes instead of sheer importance to the world and characters. Going by how hard that game was to ignore and how desperate SE are to appeal to everyone with FF, I wouldn’t be surprised if they actually did look at it and try to implement some of that. Of course, could be wishful thinking

    It’s probably gonna be open world I imagine. But hey, if they’re aping the Witcher in other ways, maybe they’ll do quests like them too and it’ll actually be great

    So I take it you’ll join me in Eorzea once I get there

    Like aside from what you said, I heard the lead writer from Tactics was actually a writer on XIV up until Heavensward - so it’s quite likely they actually drafted him to XVI at that point. Here’s hoping.

    As for the combat, I guess we’ll cross that bridge when we get there. If the quests, workd and plot are engaging enough, I can even get through the game if I don’t like the battle system

    Yeah, your probably right. I’m most interested in how the story plays out, since we’re long overdue for more personal drama in a political story. XV was a beautiful story with strong themes and a very realistic main cast, but it really was more of a fairy tale than anything all things considered. Haven’t played much if XIV (hope to change that with my marathon) but considering it’s nature as an MMO I feel it can probably do a good job on the political side but not as much on the character side - at least with regards to the mute player made protagonist. For me to believe that XVI can do it though, I need to see something more about the protagonist. I’m not saying it can’t be done since that would be hypocritical of me - the Witcher’s Geralt of Rivia is, on the surface, a typical male power fantasy, but it very quickly comes out just how nuanced, dorky and likeable he is. So yeah, I’m hoping our MC has a wider range of emotions than sad mad. AKA smad.

    Also, I’m currently not expecting a party at all. From the looks of it, this is going to basically be just a character action game with some RPG elements. Kinda sucks for me since I’m not good at those and preferred the button holding from XV, plus if I do finally get it on PC it’ll probably run slow as molasses and I’ll be at a disadvantage lol. But I still wish there was a party. There might be, but I still doubt it’ll be a very fleshed out party in terms of gameplay. I was hoping they’d finally go back to gambits, but I don’t think it’d work here

Games tha are distracting me from playing other games...

by Wolf Kanno on 12-10-2023 at 06:09 AM
Since I'm doing a marathon, I thought it would be fun to list the games that are distracting me from actually finishing said marathon.

FFXV ~ MGS: Peace Walker and SaGa Scarlet Graces
FFXIII ~ Breath of Fire 1-3 and MechCommander Gold
XIII-2 ~ Romancing Saga Re:Universe and FF: Opera Omnia

Will update more in the future...

Projects!!!

by Wolf Kanno on 01-28-2021 at 07:40 AM
Oof, I've been a bit out of sorts with my mental health lately, and I think it's about time I do something about that. I've got a lot of balls in the air so to speak concerning projects I've been doing around the forum both past and present. So I'm thinking about tackling a few of them, but with how I've been feeling lately, I want some second opinions I guess. Of the projects I've abandoned, what should I work on next?

Here's where I'm at for the moment:

WK's Top 100 Lost but Not Forgotten : Tactics Ogre: Let Us Cling Together

by Wolf Kanno on 05-24-2020 at 11:43 PM

I'm always split on these articles. So many of these games are great and I have retroactively said a few of them made the list, but occasionally something comes along that I really want to love but the game just won't let me. Tactics Ogre is in a weird place for me because the remake and the original are pretty different in some meaningful ways, so much of this review pertains to the remake due to having only played a little bit of the original.

WK's Top 100's Lost but Not Forgotten List: Silent Hill 3

by Wolf Kanno on 05-03-2020 at 01:37 AM
Is this honestly the first non-RPG on this list?

Well I fell into the Silent Hill series rather late. By the time I had played the series, the "glory years" were over and fans were knee deep in Konami trying to take the series in a different direction without Team Silent. I was a huge fan of the first two entries of the series, being instantly sucked into the second entry and surprised how much I really enjoyed the first one. So it came as a bit

WK's Top 100 Lost But Not Forgotten: SaGa Frontier 2

by Wolf Kanno on 04-05-2020 at 02:32 AM
I was having a serious reservation about whether I was going to add this to my Top 100 list or place it here. I decided it would go here for now, but part of me feels it could be like Demon's Souls and make the jump to My Top 100.


SaGa is a weird franchise. A JRPG series made for enthusiast who feel they've seen it all. From the Gameboy entries where you built a ragtag group filled with robots and monster to climb a tower/tree to visit
