    Okay no exclusivity

    This bodes well for ff7r2

      The exclusivity deals appear to have been good for no one involved: Epic, Square Enix, Sony, or customers, so I think we’ve seen the last of them outside of things Epic publishes themselves.

        Good! I refuse to participate in that shit, but it really sucks to have to wait an extra year so some other schmuck can make more money…

        How was it bad for epic? They would’ve made more from cuts on sales on steam than selling the full game at the lower rates on their own store? God I wonder how dismal their customer engagement rate is.

    I want to open a Final Fantasy-themed Vietnamese restaurant in south central Arizona. I’m going to call it “Pho Enix”.

    Not sure where to open up shop, but I’m thinking Scottsdale.

      If you don’t have Hrothgar themed servers I won’t even consider it

        If the budget is there then I’ll consider it, kupo!

      Expansion packs are a very old concept. That brand new game came out over a year ago.

        very old

        Agh, gawd.

      No, these are DLCs for a game that’s over a year old

      The DLCS aren’t cosmetic - they’re “additional” storylines.

      Why are you defending the practice of selling incomplete games with the option to pay to play the entire game ON DAY 1?

      What? Is it additional storylines or part of the main game? Who fucking cares, dont buy it if you dont want to. I only recently played the yuffy story on ff7r and it didnt add shit to my experience.

      Square wasn’t going to do DLC for this. The players demanded it.

    According to a friend who had the displeasure of looking at the file size, he claims it’s 170GB when all is said and done… Stupid Sony refusing to let steam preload…

    source
    • RolyRamen@lemmy.world ⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

      What’s Sony got to do with this? It’s entirely developed and published by Square.

      source
      • Asafum@feddit.nl ⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

        Yeah true, I had Sony on the brain from a previous comment in this thread lol

      170 GB is insane. Publishers should really get punished for making larger than average deliveries. Most of that size usage usually comes from poor optimization.

      source
      • ampersandrew@lemmy.world ⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

        They’re typically optimizing for fidelity and performance ahead of install size. Multiple LODs can balloon an install size quite quickly, but they’ll give you better bang for your buck in other areas, and storage space is a concern that dissipates more in time, as you upgrade to newer machines.

    There’s already a fan-made fix to add things such as FoV and ultrawide and framegen support.

    Could you edit the post and add the actual store links? Thanks!
