Initially was excited to see an HD-2D FF, but this seems kinda generic (?). I guess it's a new game built in the Brave Exvius world in HD-2D, from what I'm gathering? That's one of the paths the franchise took that I just never got into. I tried it, got ignorantly suckered in to the original OG "gacha" for a short time as a time waster on my phone and soured on it quick because that's not what I want out of FF (or ever- I do not play gachas, that was my one attempt at one). Also disliked all the "IP crossovers" that game, and games like it, do.
I suppose this sheds some of the overtly bad gacha parts and keeps the world and makes a new game out of it? Not sure how I feel. I guess there are plenty of BE fans but that just feels like a waste of HD-2D- these never feel like a fully fleshed-out "real" Final Fantasy to me
Yeah I see there are "packs" you can buy that give you in-game items and XP boosts. Gross. There are fan-service "Visions" where previous FF characters aid you in battle. Ew. If this was simply an actual FF RPG with a solid story (even as a spinoff), interesting characters, and something to say, I'd be all-in, because I'd love to see an mainline-FF-quality HD-2D game (something like Octopath but better)
$50 for this is unfathomable (but expected from Squeenix)
It already has a Steam page with a price and shitty Denuvo DRM on it. See you in 5 years at half price, suckers. O/
Yup, Denuvo = no sale. I'll support indie RPGs instead.
Denuvo is like the boogeyman at this point
Hey, the money is mine and if you even mildly annoy me, I won't buy your game. At the end of the day I just keep more of my money.
You would have absolutely hated PC gaming in the '00s, DRM was far more impactful of the actual user experience back then

Cool looking art style.
