On one hand, I have to wonder what the fuck Square is doing. On the other hand, I'd like to see several of those options implemented.

VOTE FOR LUNAFREYA

>>377880580
XV is so odd. It's like they're treating it not like a single game but a platform.

I thought it said playable character: Car for a second

>>377881065
Fuck no.
I'd rather get backstory/worldbuilding and gameplay updates.
>>377881132
It really is weird.

Game needs a playable slut.

>>377880580
Can we vote for more than 1? Because I have several things that I would like added.

if they add all of that it might actually be a good game

What the fuck is even the point of this survey? Are they stupid?
>Do you want to see further explorations of characters you hardly knew shit about in the game?
>Do you want further elaboration on concepts brushed over in the game?
>Do you want to the World of Ruin to be more than just a pit-stop?
>Do you want to play as all these characters?
>Do you want a Hard-Mode, as well as improved gameplay features

Just give them all you idiots. You're going to anyway so why even make a survey?

>>377880580

I'm so angry my angry metter went full circle and now I'm calm again.

>>377880580

And to think some people claim this game isn't an unfinished used, rushed mess.

>>377881864
I want Ardyn's past, Ifrit's Betryal, Line of Lucis, Hard Mode, Magic, Armiger.

Christ that's pathetic..

damn

>>377880580
How about an overhaul on pretty much every boss battle in the game. I wanted better fights, not press button to win super sanic mechanics. Seriously, there was more strategy and better set pieces in fucking KH. I cannot express how disappointed I was after warping towards Leviathan through he rubble ONE TIME and then after hitting him a bit, I turn Super Saiyan and the game completely breaks for 3/4ths of fight.
Ifrit was just repeating the same climb to fight mid air over and over, and you don't even get to fight Shiva.
The potential in those fights was there, but they didn't realize even an iota of it.
That was the worst thing about the game, and until thats resolved none of that other shit matters. Give us some dungeons that arent caves or factory hallways while you're at it, too, SE.

15 doesn't even feel like a Final Fantasy game to me. It's like an action game with a bunch of FF references thrown in. I got enough rants to fill up the whole board, but man was I pissed with Pitios Ruins. Not because of the lousy platforming, but if they put HALF as much effort into the other dungeons as they did with that...

>>377882530

It should've remained a spin-off

Square Enix to stop raping this rotten carcass of a franchise to hell and back with shitty games

>>377882663
My biggest regret involving this game was purchasing it. My second biggest regret involving this game was not buying the disk so that I could resell it (would have been the second game I've ever resold in my life). My third biggest regret involving this game is wasting 30 hours beating it.

>>377880580

Is there a let FF die with the only grain of dignity it has left option?
They should invest all their money into 14 and KH and end the series.

>>377881597
Because they're not made of money you butt fucking Jew. All of that takes money. So they're trying to find shit people want the most to make it more worth their while

>>377880580
Stop trying to save a ship that is already rusting at the bottom of the ocean, and instead invest it in other shit, like FF7 remake, or a new NieR title.

>>377882981
Well, to be fair, they should have included almost all of that in the base game. I could understand a hard mode being like a 5 dollar DLC. Nothing else.

>>377880580
Ok I haven't been paying fuck all attention to the game sense I beat it, is this a from loading the game survey or do I go to a website?

I'm going to pick playable Iris even though i know it won't get enough votes to be a thing

>>377883106
Thats true. But they already spent an assload of cash and had to get that shit out the door. It prob sucks having to be the guy who makes that decision

>>377883151
Its ingame

>>377880580
A better game.

>>377883217
I don't care. You shouldn't have to pay 60 bucks for the game, and then pay out the ass for DLC to make the game acceptable.

people have moved on already. what the fuck is the point of this shit?! they should finish their anounced projects instead.

>>377883285
Some of them will be updates, which have been free.

>>377882981
>implying those are worth anything to make
Each story content is going to be incredibly short for what it is, just like Gladio's DLC and Chapter XIII 2.0.
If they're anything like Chapter XIII 2.0, then they're going to reuse assets and areas and just tell a brief story with new cutscenes.

>>377883340
at this point I think they partly know the games a wash, but are taking the loss for the market information. they clearly know they need to pander to their fans but have no idea wtf they even want, they seem to mostly be trying to figure out what parts of 15 worked, which didn't with the people who actually bought the game.

>>377880580
vote for who gets to buy Square-Enix.

>>377880580
They need to just pack it up and start working for FFXVI. I honestly think they believe history will remember FFXV as the complete game that's probably not going to be a reality until years down the line instead of the mess we have now.

JUST

>>377883403
All of them should be free. Not that it matters, anyways. I've already deleted the game off my hard drive.

That game was such an abortion that I'm unwilling to give it another chance. I just stopped playing and deleted it when I beat that Naflgar (or whatever its called) at level 90 while the game was in PIP on my TV, and I was watching Netflix on the bigger portion.

When your toughest optional boss in the base game can be beaten when I'm 90 levels beneath it on PIP mode, that's the final nail in the coffin.

>>377883583
>level 90
I mean level 30.

>>377883772
Many of those copies were sold via bait and switch. Pretty much all of my friends immediately lost interest when I told them that the game is done in 30 hours without even trying to speedrun the game.

>>377880580
Fucking all of it. Everything on this list.

>>377883285
Then get a fucking job you lazyass. Or one that doesn't consist of flipping burgers. You entitled little prick, this is where gaming is heading and going to stay. So either dish out the cash or just stop gaming you cry baby bitch.

>>377883772
>millions of copies sold
Yep. Ten years of deceptive marketing will do that.

>generally positive reviews
It's a FInal Fantasy game. And it's still pretty low with all those generous scores.

>>377883791
>Samurai dude way too high level for me down there
Samurai's are fucking easy. Hold dodge until a counter pops up. That's how I beat that level 110 samurai at level 20.

>>377883882
I make 46.50 an hour as a power plant operator. I just have no interest in supporting the practice of releasing a shit game and then paying more to make the game acceptable.

>>377884195
It's low for a series recognized by it's legendary status and has a history of getting high reviews just for being "Final Fantasy".

So we only have one option to vote? In reality they should add everything in this list to make this game servicable.

Don't try to Christian yourself up. You work minimum wage cleaning dishes fuckface.

There was nothing wrong with FFXV. It was a bit short and some characters didn't get explored. Boo hoo.

>>377883791
git gud, you can literally do this entire game without taking damage if you're good enough

so is this game playable yet? i heard the new dlc was going to fix the later chapter, but then i read like 5 game journalists pros group articles shitting all over it and saying people hated it

is it good enough to play now?

>>377884195
>NieR Automata: 88/100
>Persona 5: 93/100
>BotW: 97/100
>Horizon Zero Dawn: 89/100

I'm betting none of those games have been in development since before the PS3 launched, and all of them are higher (and most, if not all of them, had a lower budget).

>>377884828
No, not when they desperately needed to be longer to flesh things out. I can assure you that if XV was a good game at the length it is now, Tabata wouldn't have to respond to fan backlash, release shit like Chapter 13 Verse 2 and put up surveys, asking which aspects of the story would we like to have elaborated on.

>>377884945

I voted Ardyn story and then on my JP account I voted Armiger upgrade.

All the system mechanics including Armiger, hard mode and buff magic should be there by default.

>>377885013
Did you buy the game twice? If so, why?

Square wanted to turn FFXV into a multimedia series before the game was even a success. Hence why the released the movie and OVA series prior to the game's release, aswell as a few smartphone games. I can't help but feel that FFXV ended up feeling so unfinished because they decided to fuck with the game and started all these auxiliary projects before the main one was complete.

FFXIII was the same, they announced a whole franchise years before the game even released. Both Versus XIII and Agito were in development hell before they were rebranded.

>>377885307
Yes. When they announced a multiplayer add-on with customize-able hunters out of fucking nowhere.

Now watch the story content get ignored so that waifufags can get someone in the party that they can beat their filthy dicks to.

Yes exactly! Even with just Nier Automata they gavery Taro one year and 5 million to make it and he made a game that can do circles around XV in both storytelling and gameplay.

Main FF is dead. They just pander to the lowest common denominator fanbase now cuz they know they'll pay them no matter how shiny the turd is.

FFXV is one of my favorite games. Genuinely believe that years down the road, the immature hate born from unrealistic expectations will die down and people would see it as the masterpiece which it surely is. Many players like me are obviously enjoying the game as well fortunately due to this expanded DLC plan. But I can't choose between:-

>Ardyn's Past
>Ifrit's Betrayal,
>The World of Ruin
>Noctis's disappearance
>Hard difficulty
>Improved Armiger abilities

What do bros? Don't reply to this post if you don't love FFXV.

Hey man, her ass mat have brought more players but at least her game had a well made story, gameplay, and was actually completed. XV looked good from a marketing stand point and characters ppl were drawn to but the game was clearly incomplete and with a shit story that anyone could have improved on.

Maybe they should say from the start that this game is early acces shit

I sincerely hoe thats someone samefagging, because FFXV is truly a lesson on how not to make a video game. Everything it does, it does averagely or just wrong, theres no vision, no integrity, it reeks of focus group shit, unnecessary crap thrown in. The worst part is that if they dialed it back and focused on what actually made Versus interesting, the combat and setting, it wouldn't have sold as much.

But i guess to keep interest for the future dlc they go for the easy shit no one even thought about or demanded ... never change SE never change i mean its nice freestuff and all but NO just fucking NO. Wasting time on timed one time only shit on character creation!?!?!?! on non story seperate multiplayer mode??! on vr crap which requires technical expertise in performance optimization...from SE..., its just all fucking stupid cheap nonsense throw everything at the wall maybe something will stick.. just dont throw the things fans want lol

>Combat based around attack combos, weapon switching, warping and defending in tandem with AI party just like it was set out to be?
Combat was reworked very late into development and shows a lack of confidence on part of the director and his team. Tabata's vision can be easily altered by fan input.

>Story getting cut and dumbed down to make their release mark.
ftfy

>Omen which shows an potential future that Regis wanted to prevent?
Omen which was tacked on later in XV as a dream, but literally has no meaning whatsoever in the frame of the gamemand just looks cool because muh flashy cg.

This survey alone is proof that Tabata is spineless, visionless hack. He stated that "the narrative direction was entirely intentional" and that he "didn't want to create a comprehensive and balanced story", which meant you weren't supposed to see crucial events unfold because you were meant to see them through Noctis' eyes. And now he shits on everything he said by offering additional story content to elaborate on those exact things we wanted to see but couldn't because of his retarded direction. A confident director would never do such a thing, but Tabata is no confident director.

>>377890914
Nomura talked about multiplayer in 2013 which was after Tabata was already part of the team.

Combat was tweaked to be a system they're satisfied with where you can do combos, aerial combat, weapon switching, magic, party techs, parry and counter and other abilities like armiger. Things Noctis did in the cg trailers was realized through combat they made, it fulfilled their vision for it.

Story focussing on essential is still not going against their vision since they told the story they wanted, now they're doing extra.

Omen trailer literally says it's a nightmare for Noctis.

Just got the Plat a couple of hours ago at 85hrs total playtime. I legitimately liked the game and enjoyed the post game content.

I wish they would give it a rest though. It's obviously not a massive success and never will be no matter how hard they patch it, this is a single player adventure, not a fucking MMO. And stop with all the fucking spin off tie ins that nobody wants. It enrages me that they wasted money and manpower on a full blown CGI movie nobody asked for when the game was released in a clearly unfinished state.

XV was marketed since it's inception as a single-player RPG. If multiplayer was part of the team's vision from the very beginning, they would have announced it and made sure to include it in the game at launch. At most, it was half-baked idea tossed around during road-map meetings, because the team has literally nothing better to do. So no it was not part of their vision.

It only became their vision after fan input. If it had been their vision from the start, we would've never seen that combat in Duscae and we would've seen something similar to the final game. So no, they had visions drastically constantly changing even late into development.

>now they're doing extra
Fans complained to Tabata about their lack of satisfaction regarding the story and Tabata's direction and Tabata, in attempt to appease fans, goes back on his vision of the game. If he was confident in his vision, there would be no need to do this.

>Omen trailer literally says it's a nightmare for Noctis.
And what does it suggest within the context of XV exactly? Noctis is fighting, he's losing clothes, Luna and Noctis are shown as reflections with Umbra and Pryna, even though nothing of that nature is suggested in the game. As a trailer on it's own, it makes sense, but not in the game. It makes even less sense when you realize it was Regis' vision for something completely different.


Keep being in denial that Tabata has no vision and this survey proves it.

It's not an abomination and has good moments, but for the most parts it feels like a disjointed mess full of wasted potential in all the areas - story, characters, combat, driving overworld, etc.

After years of hype we got an empty shell of what we were advertised to get.

What's sad is that you don't realize I sage every one of my posts

>>377892193
Nomura in 2013 said he wanted to add multiplayer, that was after Tabata had joined the game, this was something always in the books because of the multiple party characters with you while you travel and it being a real time game. The reason they're doing it now is because it's addition stuff they wanted to do but focussed on the main game first, doing it now doesn't go against their vision of it being something they had wanted to do years ago. It was something always in the books and now they finally have more of an opportunity to do it. Not everything is black or white you dipshit.

Sorry but where is Tabata going back on his vision? He's adding additional story stuff for the side characters which are parts of the game that are already written, just weren't shown in the main game.

What do you think it suggests? Are you dumb? Him losing his clothes is a metaphor for him being stripped of his essence, he loses his powers as the trailer goes on, hey guess what there is a part of the game where Noctis is stripped of his powers. Noctis and Luna are both parallels like Umbra and Pryna are too, not sure why you think they somehow aren't. Pryna died when Luna died, while Umbra stuck with Noctis's side when you come out of the crystal.

The trailer description says it is an omen Regis is seeing and is a nightmare for Noctis, it is both and it touches on elements of the game too, it shows a different future where if Noctis went on his own.

I don't hate any game. I wouldn't let a shitty game have that kind of control over my emotions.

That said, I do think it's a bad game, and that anyone who tries to negate my personal experience with a post is attached to the game in a way that's pathetic.

>>377892490
Yes they are, they confirmed it and showed it multiple times. they said recently they already have a date decided for it.

>>377892508
Only people who havnt play that shitpost that, it's easily among the best FFs yet.

So overall, the biggest problem is that we were sold a game with less consistency than a 10 dollar steam greenlight indie title, but it costs not only 60 dollars, but more than triples its price with expensive DLC thats supposed to be basic features that should be in the game.

>>377893104
>summons trivialize combat even more, as they're an instant win against every non-boss
It's a auto-win against most optional bosses, too. That snake lady in the sewers gets recked by a single summon.

>FFXV-Kun is a new forced meme, made on 4chan and /v/ in 2016. Created by die hard fanfaggots who praise Western devs and Witcher III, it is essentially the Tin Foil Hat wearing loony made conspiracy theory and boogieman espoused by many a /v/idiot who enjoys showing that 4chan has now died from Eternal Newfag Cancer due to an ignored strain of leukemia born by forum elitist faggots from Reddit, Something Awful, and whatever offhand cocksmear of a self funded self made AVGN wannabe video game fansite who are too afraid of posting how they really feel about the world on their website made to "show off the world and stick it to the unwashed masses unlike myself" with their cultureless and eurocentric jingoistic socially vindictive dispositions.

>FFXV-Kun is essentially a user whom /v/ claims to have discovered his powerword and being the only person who cares about the release of Final Fantasy XV that posts on /v/, while mocking him like the consumerist shit flinging territorial neanderthal orgy tribe they are. In other words, the pedants believe they have properly doxxed a person on a site whose function is to be a purely anonymous chatterbox without mod intervention and legitimate evidence, including IP addresses and keylogs.

>PROTIP: Stalking around for speech habits and "relevant traits" does not ensure accurate pinpointing. Doing this on 4chan, unless there's pictures involved, is the equivalent of searching for a needle in a 12 foot pile of stable droppings and hay, after having broken the needle into several pieces and fed the needle to an animal for it to shit out. Even a script kiddie could have told you cancerfaggots this. The only way someone knows about the user, is well, a /v/idiot being apart of that community themselves.

>>377893308
It's XV-kun. What do you think?

Look at the dude's ED article (which I'm positive he made): >>377893237

>>377893237
AHAHAAHAHAHAHAHA

>>377893237
XV-kun is pretty amazing in some ways. Imagine if he used this for something other than video games.

>>377892508
I'm going to explain as much as I can, this game deserves a Matthew/Plinkett style level of dissection as to why it sucks.
>Story
All over the fucking place, plot details are in outside media that is REQUIRE VIEWING if you want to know whats going on. Characters other than the main four get criminally little screen time and are outright gone later in the game. We're supposed to buy that Noctis and Luna love each other despite the fact that not only are they barely even seen together, we barely see Luna AT ALL. Don't forget the fact that Prompto is a Nif test tube baby and this revelation causes a pitiful crisis of confidence to him, which is then hand waved away, I mean who gives a fuck right? Oh he's also Verstael's son, don't know who Verstael is? I don't blame you.
>Combat
Holy fuck the fucking combat, its a total clusterfuck. They attempt to give it some nuance with pause and directional combos, which is a good idea, as is the break system leading to free hits on a downed enemy (can you say Xenoblade X?) But its piss poor honestly, directional attacks only work half the time and are inconsistent, rather than attack where he's standing Noctis will sprint towards an enemy and attack them, even if theres one closer to you, this makes crowd control virtually nonexistent unless you use magic. Speaking of magic, it sucks, the Lucis bloodline are fucking wizards and what do we get? Grenades with different flavors of elemental magic,which you have to craft by the way, and a ring with a few spells on it, that they had to buff MONTHS after it came out. Then theres air comabt which Noct should excel at, I mean that mother fucker can warp right? Nope, target an enemy while jumping or warping will cause him to spaz out and struggle to hit the enemy, wasting mp if its flying about since nothing suffers hitstun in this game except you.

It would be a genuine surprise to me if some random guy decided to make an article on XV-kun and still managed to make it so one-sided. ED is about humor, and this article is pure cringe. What kind of autist would take the time to write up this article simply to defend someone's who consistently posts in a similar fashion ever single thread.

You will see this post at least once every single time XV-kun is in the thread. He makes huge claims, provides no evidence, and then accuses people of "not an argument" whenever someone responds in kind.

>>377893451

I still don't get this complaint, i didn't watch Kingsglaive or Brotherhood and i understood the plot just fine. Are you sure you paid attention to the game? Its all there.

Would you say that the game was well made, story-wise? Like in the slightest?

>>377893750

Did I give you permission to respond to me?

>>377893729
Oh? You can explain why Noctis got over his dad's death in about 30 seconds (seriously, Gladio was torn up longer), but bitched and moaned over Luna for weeks on end?

I assumed it would be explained in the movies that he didn't overly care for his father, and there was enough history between him and Luna to where he could actually love her. Are you saying he's just a fucking mongoloid who thinks with his dick?

>>377893451
You're already wrong on your first point because kg and bh are not required viewing, bh has nothing to do with the main story and kg happens during ch1 of the game and anything important that happens in that you learn in the game.

Does this game even have a story? Everyting story related literally happens after Noctis got struck in the crystal in ch.13. Which is like 90% of the game.

>>377892835
>Nomura in 2013 said he wanted to add multiplayer
He said Online Elements, shit like leaderboards for minigames, not full-blown multiplayer with customizeable avatars.

>where is Tabata going back on his vision?
"He stated that "the narrative direction was entirely intentional" and that he "didn't want to create a comprehensive and balanced story", which meant you weren't supposed to see crucial events unfold because you were meant to see them through Noctis' eyes. And now he shits on everything he said by offering additional story content to elaborate on those exact things we wanted to see but couldn't because of his retarded direction. A confident director would never do such a thing, but Tabata is no confident director."

>>377893887
There's story before that. You (like normal people) could just never bring yourself to care. Remember that old guy getting killed because the kid couldn't keep his mouth shut? Technically story.

>>377890331
>Multiplayer you mean like Nomura said he wanted to do?
>Combat based around attack combos, weapon switching, warping and defending in tandem with AI party just like it was set out to be?
>Story going through changes to nail down the essence of what it's about?
>Omen which shows an potential future that Regis wanted to prevent?
>Really?

Yes swallow this shit even thought you know for a fact its bullshit. They promised shit in every trailer that was never ever EVER in the game and still isnt this was the main thing people asked ever since tenebrae, finsishing the second half all the shit you mentioned only ever came afterwards after fans gave up and realiced SE basically shits on what the fans want.
Now they take at least the free shit cause what else can you do? Its still has cut content from beginning to end, still has more combat issues than the first kh to the point KH becomes the best action game of all time by comparison. None of that shit was fixed ever. And now they give out other feestuff and you have SE drones pretending this is what all fans wanted in the first place lol yeah i am sure the character creator or vr shit or timed quests and chocobo carnival was what fans wanted when they didnt even knew it existed right? Give me a fucking break.

>>377893451
Enemies are utter damage sponges and take FOREVER to kill, this is made worse by the fact that Noct and friends are as tough as a paper bag, and your teammates can and will die, in which case you'll have to waste time reviving them only for them to stand in another devastating attack and die again. This also means heavy menu management, get used to drinking a thousand fucking potions and phoenix downs, yeah thats right, you spend half your time in battle navigating a menu IN A FUCKING ACTION GAME. Titan is a fucking joke of a boss, Aranea and Ravus are total clusterfucks Aranaea with a half-baked aerial combat set piece, and Ravus with entirely too much hp. However the Zone of the Enders style aerial combat used to fight Leviathan is cool idea and makes sense given Noct's power of the armiger, too bad it sucks shit as well, also Ardyn is a qte. I feel I could go on, but that would require playing the game more which have no intention of doing.
>Music
Phoned in, its obvious Shimomura did the minimum here and the best tracks are the ones composed when it was still Versus. Not to mention Nomura works closely with her on the music, part of the reason why the music in Kingdom Hearts is amazing, legendary even.
>Graphics
Again all over the fucking place, character models and lighting are quite good of course, playing to the strengths of the Luminous engine. While distant and not so distant environments look like ass, it's weakness. I reckon using UE4 like they were going to fucking fo for FFVII and KH anyway, would have shaved off a good deal of time off wrestling with the Luminous engine.
>Bonus
Side quests are horrible, just horrible. They are all fetch quests LITERALLY every single one of them, its pathetic. The product placement is fucking abysmal and Gladio's cup noodle commercial alone is enough to damn this game. Kingsglaive, Brotherhood, Florence, Uncovered, all that shit was utterly unnecessary.

So because it calls XV-kun a fucking meme, which it is, regardless of me responding to people who call me XV-kun, the name "XV-kun" is still spouted at literally fucking anyone who defends the game, fuck just before I even entered the thread people were doing it so how the fuck can you seriously tell me that it isn't? Second of all why do you think I made that again? Because it's not subscribing to the shitposting mentality of /v/ and is calling it out for what it is? Take a step back and stop being a biased piece of shit already. You can even check the user who typed up that article and it sure as fuck isn't me, so again eat shit.

And here's another thing, all you fucking do is lie and shitpost against the game, then when someone lists reasons why it's good all you do is "durr it's bait" then "durr no evidence" and other complete fucking shitposts because you can't fucking deal with someone elses opinion, you think you aren't shitposting and you think anyone defending the game is just baiting. You fucking people are complete fucking cancer, you are the utmost worst cunts on /v/, you are absolute scum.

But he was pissed over Regis death all through the end of ch1 and all of ch2, only by ch3 he moved past it and walked tall like Regis wanted him too, did you just miss all the scenes in ch2 with Cor and Cid? Also by the time Luna died that's now two people he cared about who died only weeks apart, why the fuck wouldn't that put him or anyone into a funk? You really didn't pay attention at all, did you?

>Phoned in, its obvious Shimomura did the minimum here and the best tracks are the ones composed when it was still Versus.
No, all best tracks are not Versus related.
Hellfire, Prayer De Luna, Apocalypsis Noctis, Dawn

>>377894169
The Omen trailer is fucking false advertising and might as well be for a different game. Even now there is more I can think of but I'm done for tonight, I hope that helps explain why this game is such a monumental fuck up. Tabata had the game virtually laid out for him but lacked any vision or direction and instead opted to "put everyone on a level playing field" resulting in the half-baked amalgamation of shit you see in the game. But hey, it was a success right? Thats the power of advertising I suppose.

>>377894251

Not him, but it's better than reusing the exact same insult that someone else used.

Also, of course XV-kun is a meme. Anything that lasts longer than a thread or two is a meme. But that doesn't mean that it is automatically forced, or automatically bad. That being said, the article is atrociously unfunny. It just reeks of butthurt faggot, as it doesn't even bother taking shots at both sides.

I mean, this is on most people who are singled out, even if their names or faces aren't revealed. But that ED article is so one-sided, it's obvious that someone completely autistic and buttflustered with the meme wanted to take the time out of their day to write up this article.

Don't bully XV-kun, he legitimately has autism over this game.
He stays up 24/7 to search for any thread about it just to argue with anons
