Xbob42 Posted March 18 Share Posted March 18 Oh, much of it is speculation, but the base facts are pretty obviously telegraphed! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarSolo Posted March 18 Share Posted March 18 Now I’ve gotten the hang of Synergy abilities and the quick moves. My ONLY complaint is the notches that tell you how many ATB moves you need from each character are a little hard to see at times so I struggle to tell if I need four or five sometimes.

best3444 Posted March 18 Share Posted March 18 @Xbob42 @BloodyHell I'm on chapter 10. If I play 8 more hours just focusing on the main quest, would I beat it by then? It reads I'm 20 hours in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xbob42 Posted March 18 Share Posted March 18 If you're not at the very beginning of chapter 10, and focus exclusively on just railroading that story, I think you can do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice. I'm at least halfway through chapter 10. Right now the plot completely dropped. Nothing is going on so I'm a bit bored right now.

best3444 Posted March 19 Share Posted March 19 Fuck I'm bored to tears in chapter 10. It's like they completely dropped everything about the game to explore nonsense in XII homeland. This better pickup fast or this is another FF16. Jesus I'm tired of games starting out amazing then slowly getting boring and uneventful.

You blew through the previous game right before this one which is a lot of FF. Chapter 10 is not slow and all of its pretty relevant. I think rather than just forcing yourself to finish through it, you should take a break for a little while and come back to later when you can enjoy it more.

I'm really bored when I'm playing it and it has to be FF fatigue. I'm forcing myself to play it so that it's beat before Friday. I know this game is good but I think I'm burnt out. Maybe I'll take a break from this until after DD2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I find that feeling like you have to finish a game before you start another game will immediately drop my enjoyment of the game I'm playing (and trying to finish). I was pretty close to the end of Persona 3 Reload when Rebirth came out, but I didn't want to ruin the ending by forcing myself to rush through, so I just put it on hold and started Rebirth. Feels much better. The game will be there when you feel ready, and I know I'll enjoy finishing P3R much more after I'm done with Rebirth and can give it proper breathing room. So yeah, I think coupling that with just a lot of FF you've been playing lately probably means you need a break! The game will wait for you 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
legend Posted March 19 Share Posted March 19 I hit the point of no return. My understanding is it's another 4-7 hours or so from there. But I imagine it's going to be a roller coaster which means I'd prefer to play it all in one go. Unfortunately, it's hard to dedicate that much time during the weekdays. So I may have to put this pause until the weekend when I can really enjoy it 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SaysWho? Posted March 19 Share Posted March 19 I got three hours under my belt yesterday after coming back from vacation. Haven't hit Junon, but I did a bunch of side stuff to get the really good materia you can develop in the region. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
best3444 Posted March 19 Share Posted March 19 I'm officially putting this game on hold. I'm going to finish FF16 and then dive deep into DD2. In fact when I do go back to Rebirth ill most likely start over fresh. So it won't be anytime soon. This saddens me lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

best3444 Posted March 19 Share Posted March 19 1 minute ago, legend said: Because I have a mental condition that makes me forget almost everything within days/weeks. Especially stories from movies and games. It happened when my twin brother died in 2017 and slowly after I developed a condition in my brain to block out almost everything in its entirety. There is nothing that can be done as I'm just dead weight at this point. That situation traumatized me more than anything ever in my life or anything that could ever happen in my life if he never died. Most people do not understand the amount of pain and devastation there is when you lose not just a brother but an IDENTICAL twin brother who you were attached to for 35 years. Our souls were connected and the amount of love that is involved with twins is beyond comprehension. For instance if I just lost my biological sister in 2017, I'd be completely fine now and over everything. With an identical twin who is basically you in another form, it's life shattering. That's why I am beyond screwed up and have many issues that current therapy is trying to help but it's suicidal type pain daily. So yea, I start over games all the time because of this. I litteraly cannot remember last week at all and I'm not even remotely exaggerating. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
best3444 Posted March 19 Share Posted March 19 I can safely say I'm enjoying FF16 more than I am currently Rebirth. I'll have this beat by Friday. The music is absolutely incredible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You’d also be missing out on fantastic side stories. 8 hours of just story won’t get you there though, I think. Every chaper is pretty damn long.

I'm postponing my time with this game because of DD2 on Friday. Rebirth is a great game and I need to be sure I'm ready to give it my full attention and time.

SaysWho? Posted March 20 Share Posted March 20 I'd still be careful on posting even mild spoilers for now. The Rude thing isn't a huge deal, but I'm trying to avoid anything story-related. I'm finished with the side stuff in the Junon area. One thing I thought was interesting was Spoiler I thought I recognized the "King" in the Condor side quests, but I couldn't put my finger on it. Once that final cutscene plays with the Clash on the Big Bridge, it hit me. I never played 5 front to back or his boss battle in 12, so I only modestly know about Gilgamesh. Also, the piano side thing is actually kind of fun! And it provides a really beautiful version of classic tunes, as well. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
