When the Insert Credit Panel chose Final Fantasy XVI as their Game of the Year 2023, the game industry couldn’t help but rise up and wholeheartedly, sincerely agree. Hosted by Alex Jaffe, with Frank Cifaldi, Tim Rogers, and Brandon Sheffield. Edited by Esper Quinn, original music by Kurt Feldman.
I would never say Mighty No. 9 is “actually good” or “underrated” or “a 7/10” (at its best it’s a 4) but I had fun with it lol.
If you ever see it on sale for one dollar and you feel like coming to grips with one of the worst, most overdesigned, unintuitive core mechanics in any videogame this side of a discarded Unity project, give it a try!! It‘s an odd sensation mastering a game that raw. It feels personal. It feels like archaeology. Kind of like listening to a full album by Hoobastank or 3 Doors Down. Makes you wonder how many people on earth have had that experience.
@“◉◉maru”#p155895 I haven’t played FF16 yet beyond 5 minutes of the very graphically impressive demo (because I’m kind of through with the whole “character action” genre, and because another Square Enix game with a narrative trying to evoke Yasumi Matsuno without employing Yasumi Matsuno offends me) so I have no clue whether to read this as “Gears of War is game of the year and I’m serious” or “Kingdom Hearts III is game of the year lol”
Either way I feel like at this point, in March 2024, I’m better off getting my glittery PS5 Final Fantasy fix from the one that just came out that lets you play Super Triple Triad
Gita is the best, the perfect capstone for that segment
One of these days (years?) I'm gonna finally get all my thoughts in order about corridor simulators and the differing receptions of XIII, VII-R, and XVI, but at the very least I've got to finish Rebirth first (which is incredible so far)...
I played all the way through Final Fantasy XVI and I think the game would basically be uncontroversial if they didn't put so many of the side quests at the end. I had a great time with the game and only wanted to gouge my eyes out when there were like 80 of them out of nowhere and they seemed to somehow be breeding with each other and propagating.
