I just beat it yesterday. Took me about 115 hours but I enjoyed most of my time in that except for the last bits of side content which I thought weren’t balanced that well. I think it’s definitely a polarizing game but if you like it then it’s probably the best Final Fantasy game to come out in the past 20 years.

If you’re not enjoying it though then just drop it. It’s just a video game at the end of the day.

Gonna wait to play this till the definitive edition is out. Learned my lesson with Persona 5 and Royal.

I’m looking forward to and dreading this at the same time. I really enjoyed Elden Ring but eventually got burnt out playing it after Leyndell and just started googling what I’d missed and doing it before finishing the game.

I hope this dlc is more focused and not another 150 hours of content. I’d be more than happy with 20 - 30. Also show us Miquella!

Yeah, agree. That’s why I think just having a fun time expansion could be good. Although harder to make players care if the stakes are low I guess?

I personally won’t be playing this expansion for a while anyway. Maybe next year when I have more free time so I’ll get to see the general consensus before going in. Hope it’s good.

Love this trailer. It gives off a pretty chill vibe and will hopefully give the scions a much needed break after Endwalker.

Though personally I thought Endwalker was a good stopping point I get that this is an mmo so there can never really be an end. I’m pretty sure even FFXI is still getting new content!

Looking forward to this. I don’t think ragnarok is as good as 2018 but the gameplay in this is good and looking forward to any more story/lore updates in this universe. Especially anything related to Greek mythology!

Interesting seeing the upvote/downvote ratio? Anyone wanna enlighten me or is Joseph just polarizing?

Agreed, people on here can’t seem to understand how this product could be successful? Every post about it on here has the same upvoted comments about how people should get a Steam Deck instead. If someone comments about why they like it or are happy with it, it gets downvoted.

Personally I probably won’t ever buy one of these but to act like your opinion about something as unimportant as a this is better than everyone else’s screams of reddit to me. Why not just let people be happy with their purchase?

Yeah, I think that’s why I didn’t have an issue with it. I remember only doing maybe 1 or 2 of the barrels in the water in Skellige. I mostly used the question marks as small distractions as I went from one quest to another. I never focused on clearing them out.

You’re right that most of the items weren’t that rewarding to get. It’s mostly just busy work. Hopefully rebirth keeps that stuff to a minimum and just has a large map with cool locations and unique well written side quests. Maybe a few collectibles scattered around the map to reward exploration too.

I remember liking Witcher 3’s. It made the world feel large and lived in. Although I’m not the kind of person who needs to complete everything on a map. I have heard people complain about that

I tried Destiny 2 when it went free to play with some friends and none of us had a clue what was going on. Just go do these missions with minimal story reasons or explanation.

We got through the first area and to the main hub but it just seemed boring. Played a bit more after that but saw no improvements in the second area when it came to missions or story. I’m not sure why someone new would ever play this game?

Man, I want to get back into this game but just don’t have enough free time anymore… Glad I finished Endwalker though. At least that’s given me a bit of closure

I’m not really a fan of what’s being done with LOTR now. I think we’ll keep seeing more games set in this universe since Christopher Tolkien has passed away. I’m sure some will be good but based off Gollum we’re also going to get absolutely terrible things that are just a quick cash grab with the LOTR name attached.

I’d be interested in reading that. Do you have a link to the article?

I would say 99.9% of people are still on Reddit. I mainly use Lemmy to get the bigger news stuff and the gaming community is pretty active here too. Also I use Lemmy on mobile only really since the Reddit app is still terrible.

If I want to read about one of my other interests I’ll go to the specific subreddit on my desktop browser and use old Reddit but with no account since I deleted mine a few months ago. Sometimes I’ll post or comment on one of those smaller communities here but I don’t want to be someone who posts tons of things to a community. Too much work for me.

Hopefully the user base and engagement will grow over the next few years. Welcome to being an early adopter!

Man, I really need to play this game at some point
