I've played about 12 hours so far and I can comfortably say this is one of the best games of the generation so far. The world design is stunning, the story is intriguing, the characters and voice acting is top tier and the writing is fantastic. Even the music is stunningly beautiful. The combat is great fun as it combines what you'd normally see in a JRPG, but with interactive QTE moments enabling you to dodge, parry and counterattack, rather than let the computer and RNG determine it for you. You have to learn enemy move-sets like you would typically in the likes of Sekiro and this can be a challenge in itself along with timing the inputs perfectly within the small window available. The game is pretty linear at its core but this is good as it cuts out all the open world crap that plagues modern games. There's no filler here - everything flows incredibly well and you are constantly engaged especially with the characters and the remarkable story. To think just 30 people made this using Unreal 5 and it's only just over 50gb is absolutely crazy! Expedition 33 is just so far ahead of what any other AAA developer can churn out now, it is quite frankly embarrassing for the likes of Ubisoft and BioWare. It'll be a huge wake-up call for Final Fantasy too. It's games like this that make actually save the industry. The fact it's only £30-40 when AAA games are to be pushing £75-80 makes this an essential purchase. I'm also glad the shadow-release of Oblivion Remastered hasn't hampered its success - 2m copies sold in 12 days and it's the fastest selling game of its kind even ahead of Final Fantasy, Persona and Yakuza.

You are only allowed to play that class if you roleplay as such and create videos for all of FG to watch

Definately a cash grab on people who have never bought into the Xbox ecosystem, can't see any other reason for it. The current remaster play's fairly well so I don't understand why you would pick this up unless you had just solely stayed on playstation. I do wonder if we may see this released on the Switch 2 as well?

Fantastic game, both legs in fact 👏

Still end up being cheaper than the latest Assassin's Creed Deluxe Edition or the new FIFA Ultimate Edition🤣

Those 8 months are to help people save up to pay £100 or whatever it's going to cost 🫠

Exactly. The 4th is also available for PC but it’s shite and only available on the Windows Store. The Ultimate Edition of the original was also a terrible port. This looks a really pathetically weak effort without the first 3 games. If they then released 4 on Steam then people could access the collection at least. The original will be finished in 10 hours, the MP will be played for a week and then it’ll be gone and forgotten about.
