Also, new OS boost PC sales, like Windows 7, but the disaster that is Win 8 made people hesitate and stick with good old 7, no need to upgrade. Not to mention competition from tablets and smart phones the size of tablets. LOL!
I can't defend the narratives in these new games. They are getting crazier and crazier. Looks like a fun hack n slash though. Final Fantasy based on reality is pretty interesting.
The game resembles Kingdom Hearts more than any FF game really, in terms of game play mechanics. The connection to 13 is very limited. I think it's just the goddess Etro really that is the connection and that's about it. The 13 series sort of distanced itself away from crystals and were more about mythology and gods really, and that seems to be the case here. Very loose connections. It seems more likely that A Realm Reborn MMO is closer to classic FF than console games now, aside from remakes of course.
While the Shakespeare and modern Tokyo themes are interesting influences for FF series, I like the fact that the connection to the "Fabulous New Crystal" or "Fabula Crystallis" mythology isn't completely thrown away here. I like that this game is still somewhat connected to the 13 games through the goddess Etro and the parallels between Lightnings "Call of Duty" in 13 being similar to Caius in 13-2 and Noctis in 15.
a week is plenty of time to see the game, or even one weekend. Open beta, which follows this closed beta will carry over to launch servers, like Nicoleb1989 said.
I save you a bit of time on searching other sites.
I didn't get an email, but I posted an update on here about the weeklong beta starting tonite until monday. I'm sure Phase 4 is upon us soon. Enjoy the week with the game.
I suggest signing up for the beta because it's free. If you decide later on that you want to play it, you will have to pay for the game and also subscribe.
I want the Yakuza 1 HD remake on WiiU. I want to start the series from game one.
I played a bit of Type-0. Too bad there's no news about release on PSVITA. I was really sure about that.
