I’ve spent a disproportionate amount of time on this game in the last few months. I’ve stopped playing the actual game and just got stuck in the Gold Saucer playing QB! I won’t take credit for the method as it’s on a YouTube video (576 points on Queens Blood) but I really wanted to see how high...

Sat outside the store waiting for it to open to collect my pre-order. I can literally see it on the shelf and have a whole seven minutes to wait. Do I have a problem?

Have mine on pre-order from a local store which opens at 9am tomorrow morning. No confirmation from them as to whether it's there or not. Desperately trying to stay away from the download button...

Handy context, thanks. The post count on that thread is terrifying and makes you wonder what the hell is going on, but I’m staying way away from it. I’m not going to be able to plough through the game quickly because of new parent duties so while it’ll be hard to avoid spoilers I’ll have to do...

Not going anywhere near that thread myself. Environment artwork on its way out via the official channels too. I don’t mind being spoiled on these, but you all might. In any case they look gorgeous…

How can anyone play this demo and not buy the game immediately?

Gobsmacked. Interviews and still renders are great, don’t get me wrong, but seeing and feeling the game in your hands is a whole different ball game. Owing to time I’ve only taken in a fraction of the demo but to see this world living and breathing is just amazing to me. If that’s what...

I’m glad I’m not much of a betting man. Not long to wait until the 6th anyway…!!

PlayStation State of Play announced for tomorrow (31st). On the anniversary of the OG release. Now I’m not much of a betting man but come on, this has got to be a no brainer…

They are drip-feeding us this time around versus the avalanche (no pun intended) we got before Remake. I'd expect we'll get a few more trailers in the next six weeks but they are clearly holding back many of the more spoiler-y elements for Rebirth, instead focussing on the "unknown journey"...

Sorry just remembered how beautiful the Mining Town theme is that plays during that flashback. There’s no way I’ll be able to handle it.

One of my favourite parts of the entire trailer is Dyne's cameo. I have no idea on how motion capture/facial animation in gaming is done, but the expression on Barret's face when Dyne says "look at me, Barret" is amazing to me. That section of the game, alongside Red XIII in the Cave of the Gi...

That might be the Final Fantasy-est song I’ve ever heard. Pardon me while I pull myself from this emotional wreckage. This game is going to be something alright.

Come on lads, stick that new trailer in the oven and let us feast please and thank you.

I didn’t really want to watch the latest showcase stuff as not to be “gameplay spoiled” and to experience this for the first time when I’m actually playing it. However I’ve caved within what, 48 hours? It just looks so good. We’ve got a proper PS5 glow up graphically, particularly those in-game...

What I like about this as well is that as far as exploration is concerned, it fits very well with the OG. Remake was linear because Midgar was linear. They had to stretch out ~4 hours of linear gameplay, pad it with sidequests and do what they could with exploration within the boundaries of...

What a treat to wake up to. Of all the exciting elements of these previews so far, can someone explain why the most exciting part to me was the glimpses of the old Junon town? Either that or those smooth and slick menus? There just looks like there is going to be so much to do across this...

Obviously trying to piece this together five months before the game is out is a pointless exercise but at the moment I feel like I'm going to need a degree in astrophysics to work this story out when the time comes. The Shinra Resistance Committee? Who are they? Something to do with what we saw...

Blimey. The game looks amazing on the PS5. Looks like they might’ve fixed the texture issues!!! Very very exciting. I wonder why they went for Feb 29th…

Much the same thoughts as you @Wol having finished this evening. I’ve tried to be brief… FFXVI will firmly sit in the higher end of the FF games I have played. It hits some of the highest gaming highs I’ve ever experienced, and really pushes the benchmark of what video games can be. No it...
