A 2.5 HD pixel Final Fantasy game, looks pretty damn cool. But, not sure about how it seems like your super moves are calling in past Final Fantasy heroes.
From what I understand this is a formal mobile game called "Brave Exvius" that has been remade into a single player game. The other FF heroes as summons was effeectively a "gacha" mechanic in the mobile version.

Whatever, just wash your hands.

Hmm, could still be good, just hope I can get a Freya summon.

OH HOLY FUCK! Murumasa is coming to Steam! Vanillaware has never put out their games on pc before...

I mean I wish it was Odins Sphere or Grim Grimoire or Dragons Crown, but I will take it.

Is the Ocarina of Time remake actually being done in-house by Nintendo, because that graphical style feels unlike them.

You know, I have always been wondering ever since the first Octopath Traveler came out.... why not remake the classic FF games (1-6, mainly), in this aesthetic?

I mean the pixel remaster series sort-of tries it, but it's not the full HD-2.5D artstyle. Maybe the resources it takes to make them is way more than I am guessing?

IDK, kinda feels like they will sell like hot cakes

Square catching some flak because the key art for the Switch Kingdom Hearts collection is genAI


They used Sora AI

Also, just quickly want to complain about IGNs recaps of announcement events, because their rundowns always have games missing.

Are Switch players finally getting a native version of Kingdom Hearts 3 then? Good on them.

Last time Kingdom Hearts 3 was just a cloud streamed game, pretty bad form.

Yeah hopefully they'll port more, haven't played there more recent games.

But yeah, why start with Murasama? Its one of their less interesting game...

I sure would want that much more than this mobile port... (maybe with some serious gameplay improvement for most of them)

They supposedly did a good job with Octopath 0 in the coversion from mobile game to full release. So this might be okay to.

Apparently Octopath Zero was a mobile port also but people are really liking it.

I wonder how big Godzilla could be to still walk around the streets of, say, Tokyo. These neighborhoods don't look cozy at all. Everywhere streets as wide as freeways.

The movement doesn't have the weight I would expect.

Valve is discontinuing physical Steam gift cards


Never used myself, but reducing options is rarely ever a good thing. Scammers ruining shit for the rest of us, as usual.

Hmmm. Quite sad for kids in cash-reliant countries. As a child my parents never let me use their credit cards to buy video games, those physical cards were the only way I could buy games from Steam and PSN.

Do those disposable pre-paid VISA cards work?
Yes, it's how I used to buy on Steam before I got a proper credit card. Steam requires valid billing info as a precaution against fraud, so you have to register the card with the issuer to link your billing info to the card. If not payment will be rejected.

I've used Steam cards a lot of the time, and never ran into any schemers. One of the cards didn't work properly, and Valve gave me the full money credit to use it within the next day. So their response time isn't slow.
