yes finally an rpg fan that knows what they talking about.
SE have one last screw up left in place which is to balls up FF7, which only needed a better graphic engine, updated soundtrack & updated version of the TBS.
FF13 had so much potential to I'd love nothing more than have a kick ass female protagonist that dont need to stereotypical. Story sucked ass thats all. LR was just a culmination of rubbish. To boot Lightning Gucci range GTFO,
Personally this FF is a 50/50, great potential but easily screwed up. Noctis need a royal outfit & battle outfit because in my book he just wearing threads from a thrift shop

X 2 was terrible... |
and I agree with that, To me it was the start of the downfall of final fantasy

This segment was funny, but it was biting humor. FF lost the magic some time ago, and they haven't found it yet.

Geez. I saw the Digic trailer the other week and was starting to have hope for the game, but this segment just killed it for me. The game looks to be filled with a lot of bloated, uninteresting filler content, and seeing Noctis sitting on the bed with what looks like a schoolgirl (?), pretty much killed it for me, just seems like teenie-bopper crap. I'll be waiting for the reviews, but so far if that's what the first impressions are looking like, it just comes across like a mindless time sink.

That "schoolgirl" was Iris Amicitia, Gladiolus Amicitia's younger sister who is around the same age as Noctis(20). And in case you haven't been keeping up, Gladiolus is the larger guy in Noctis' party.

Story wise, maybe. In terms of gameplay and mechanics X-2 was solid. |
I remember pressing X constantly and winning that whole game =/

You are correct. The battle system was fantastic. But I couldn't make it past the abysmal story, the vapid, annoying Charlie's Angels rip-off charatcers and the TERRIBLE camera.

The amount of butthurt in hilarious. For those who don't watch Conon, that's his persona. He does this in his show, and he especially acts like these for the clueless gamer segments. He trash talks every game. This is still good publicity for FF XV

Such a generic character design, she looks like she could have walked right out of a run-of-the-mill high school magic academy anime.

I like X-2 myself but it wasn't that great of a game. Especially in comparison to it's predecessor. But it in turn wasn't a terrible game.

Trend started with 7......(if you ignore the character models) that's part of the reason people took issue with 9.

Conan! Good, old, funny coot as always.
I've been influenced into thinking that XV is a joke. Conan's power of commentary is just unbiased Rotten Tomatoes.

It is to be expected with Conan; he`s a funny dude but if something is just a bit off-putting for him, he`ll rip the shit out of it for 10 minutes straight, if he can.
I felt that there wasn`t even an ounce of appreciation for the title, many of the titles in the past of "Clueless Gamer" has at least made it look fun to play or funny in a positive sense.
It`s true what some has said, FF is still a JRPG and it doesn`t have simple direct elements like the common popular titles, which isn`t necessarily a bad thing, but it`s enough to confuse someone who doesn`t play those kind of titles and especially someone who doesn`t play games at all.

Sidenote: X-2 was... tedious to play and mediocre at best. That happily-ever-after conclusion is way too unnecessary.

I've been ignoring the hype around FFXV for some time now because I'm a bit tired of all those Fabulous Nova (whatever it's called) entries. The fact that XV is actually just a recycled spinoff turns me off further. We're closer to the release date and most reactions here seem lukewarm. I'll check some Youtube vids when I have time, but I doubt they'll change my opinion.

I realize that the segment was made mostly in jest by someone who is way outside the demographic that XV would appeal to but it makes me want to see Conan react to some other JRPGs (or better yet, weird Japanese games in general; can you imagine Katamari Damacy?)
