Hey guys. From a well-known and respected someone who's reviewing the game and wants to clear the air, but needs non-attribution.

1: The game is excellent. No one needs to panic.

2: Verendus's description of chapters 3-5 is what's off here.

Mods, feel free to PM me for proof.

I'm curious as to what your proof for #1 is
 
I didn't actually expect to get a PM about my pizza. Bless ponpo.

Can verify that proof of purchase was sent. Pizza (2 toppings won't spoil) was in fact ordered.

Proof sent. This part in particular is what's off: "Instead, I prefer the game from chapter five onwards. It's not the half way point of the game, but at that stage, I was invested in the title and its characters. The first three to five chapters did a great job of drawing me in, and immersing me in the world, but it was after that I really appreciated the journey. " There is no real distinction of "chapter five onwards", though. Chapters 0-8 are one chunk of the game. So for him to make that distinction means he hasn't played it, and is just assuming based on the preview build.

I believe you / mods that he hasn't played it, but "devils advocating" - since he admitting that 5 wasn't the midway point, is there really NOTHING that changes after 5 where you could see what he's talking about, or is it really no different than 4 / 6?
 
Pineapple and ham?

Not a big Pineapple guy.

Interesting. Really hope Verendus responds.
 
I just got caught up from page 28, and holy moly this thread has gone places I never imagined. So happy to be a part of this absurd ride!

My hype remains off the charts through it all, though. I really, really hope we get a review copy... but I know time's running out on that front. Still, I balee!

Did I use that properly?

There's no proof anybody could give me that the game is excellent until I play it myself.

Make a JP account. Or do you mean the entire game in totality? Cause thats my biggest concern as well.

I like the mechanics and systems they have in place. Just wondering how they fit together now in the whole.
 
Man I've been following this thread all day and it's been a real treat. If nothing else, I guess we can thank Verendus for providing us some nice entertainment for the weekend.
 
Ok. We need to ask ourselves : if Altissia is at Chapter 5, and that the bros went over there by boat to continue the journey, where is the car? If the events continues from Altissia to some other regions, then it's possible the bros needs another way of locomotion, hence the train, hence the change in design, hence the second part as Verendous seems to be alluding, hence choo chop hype train mutherfuckers.

Not according to this

I think we can assume that Regalia will stay at least until chapter 8.
 
Also shrimp pizza is like good pizza being ported to game.com.

It says my IP is blocked from this site. I don't know if it's me or SE just ninja'd 4chan.

It's a "review" that popped up on gamefaqs today. It's been deleted for trolling. Came from a no name account called something like finished_xv.
 
As someone who used to be a fan of the series, especially 6 - 9 where I considered this to be my favorite franchise at the time, I have kept an optimistic approach to 15. 10 onward I felt became less and less intriguing, but really hopeful for this game but have zero intention on picking it up soon due to other games and taking care of a toddler

But this thread, lol. I went back about 10 pages and it's been a wild ride
 
Oh man now I want to! Is there a specific kind of shrimp or just the small ones?

Should I move this to a PM?
Pizza spoilers
Alright alright not to derail last time I'm bringing it up lol. Idk where you're located so wherever you get shrimp I usually go for the medium sized ones with the shells still intact,cook the shrimp with the shell on dont peel first,than towards the end when the pizza is almost done put the shrimp on top with alil more cheese on top of that to get it integrated into the pizza Boom

Alright back on topic whoooooo ffxv!!!
