discolé monade Posted July 16, 2018 Author Posted July 16, 2018 sure 'nuff. but, seriously, it's a bit much on the gameplay us old fogies like the simpler times of FF. 1

RainyDayJizz#35 Posted July 17, 2018 Posted July 17, 2018 Lol. And I find modern games boring for certain types of hand-holding. I spent 10 minutes not being hit in a damage recovery tutorial to see if anything happened.

rpgamer Posted July 17, 2018 Posted July 17, 2018 I had a similar reaction when I tried to play Crisis Core. The game just throws you into a fight with no idea what you're actually doing, and by the end, you're even more confused about every mechanic they tried to explain or introduce. 1
discolé monade Posted July 17, 2018 Author Posted July 17, 2018 well, my only other options are until i get ac:odyssey: black ops 3 ~ which...eh, i mean, i guess. doom ~ i know this will piss me off. i was boss on the pc. loved it 1-3. (although 2 was a pain in the arse, and 3 was just, kind of weird) unravel ~ that i put on hold to play ac:origins, and will have to start over to remember the game play. there's a couple that i started and was not impressed: evil within, uncharted, the order, and bloodbourne. also wolfenstein, but i couldn't play that game because of the visuals.

I hear ya, I miss old school turn based FF combat I remember playing Eternal Darkness..... I was like 15 and playing it at 1 am and the "crazy" meter got too high so my character randomly just snapped in half mid torso and I was "WTF" 1

GunStarHero Posted July 17, 2018 Posted July 17, 2018 Can never bring myself to play that game for too long. I can fight well enough that most battles are trivial...either for me or the mob I pulled. The camera can be pretty irritating when you try and lock-on to an enemy, though. 1
