All opinions about the rest of the game aside, what in the christ-fucking assfuck is this combat?
Seriously. What is this fucking combat?

It feels like an alpha. Like something slapped together in a week as a proof of concept, but needs expanding upon.

Like some extremely basic character action gameplay that wants to be avant garde, but there's just absolutely zero effort put into.

And what in the fuck was wrong with traditional turn based or Active Time Battle systems that literally made the franchise succesfull? When did the Final Fantasy fanbase stand up and say "We never want to see that again, please experiment haphazardly with retarded new combat systems."?

In-between FF13 and FF15, I just don't understand how Square Enix can be so allergic to creating a normal fucking video game with an actually playable combat system.

I have no fucking idea and I beat this game. and the only crap you get to make it better is the magic grenades and the royal arm limit break thing.

There are also skills you can spend AP to get but they are completely optional and your AP is better spent on other places.

Yeah, I didn't like it either. If you're used to the kind of gameplay and rules established in Platinum/DMC style action, XV just says fuck it to all of those.
There's no weight or rhythm to combat and enemies were designed with the mentality of being "realistic" rather than videogamey. I actually find the combat system to be kind of unresponsive. There are so many times where you swear you pressed, for example, the blink button, but it doesn't register. Fighting enemies in Duscae or the Vesperpool is also fucking nightmare, as vegetation will constantly block your view. Noctis can't crowd control at all; his combat is very specific enemy focused. That's why you have to rely on Tech Skills, like Gladio's to get you out of a stump--which brings me to my other complaint. This game constantly kills your flow. Tech Skills, link-strikes, and blindside-strikes all take control away from you, and given how many times the can occur in battle, it starts to feel very automated. Getting up after being hit is also so goddamn slow. Magic is overpowered, but I just didn't like wasting one weapon slot for something that works on a timer when I could be using another weapon. Also, when I did need to use Magic, pausing the game, navigating to the Elemancy menu and crafting/equipping magic, I found, is too cumbersome. I also hated how summoning is context based.

>>382080369

I'm going to assume you're not FFXV-kun or baiting and give you a real answer.

I played FFXV all the way through the post-game. I appreciate it's high points, but the combat is inexcusably lazy and bad.

The reason is this:

You can complete everything in the entire game, post-game included, more or less by holding circle and sometimes pressing square when prompted. Everything else is flair and completely unneeded.

If you 'step it up' on purpose and complicate it for yourself, you can add warp-strike as a "Good" skill. It's useful, breaks things, etc.

But there's so much that just isn't at all used or matters. Like magic. Consumables that require farming at camps and playing Atalier Noctis: Journey of the Hot Topic Boy Band.

The game has good parts, but the combat isn't one of them. It's incredibly simplistic, watered down "Press circle until everything is dead" for 90+% of the player base. This is indefensible.

Why do people need to shill completely one way or the other? A little honesty goes a long way

>>382081194
the air combat in FFXV is shit. All you can do is attack or warp strike. Plus some optional shit but only if you had a certain weapon equipped and wasted AP on an unnecessary skill
>>
>>382080912
>so ass blasted he didn't know only Noctis is capable of killing ardyn
Are you stating that as a fact?

>He thinks anyone tried arguing Noctis was the most powerful character
You directly stated so based on the fact he could kill Ardyn. You then said Noctis could kill 'any god'.
>>
>>382076424

The combats fine you just need to git gud.
>>
>>382081129
I actually enjoyed the combat the more I tried to be as efficient as possible instead of holding O.

The warp strikes command attacks positioning different weapon move sets and spells kept things very fresh. Even the size of the enemies needed to have different approaches. And the QTE was just how I wanted it. Nothing flashy just prompt to dodge which you can ignore to do rolls.

My only complaint is the inability to cancel attacks and sometimes I feel the buttons aren't responsive
>>

It isn't useful. In the time spent messing around doing nothing they could drop a single spell on its head and end the fight outright. It is a pointless waste of time.
>>
>>382081431
>Then don't do basic stuff and do more

but that would mean wasting AP on unneeded skills.

Plus my weapon loadout when I last touched FFXV (whcih was in like February) was:
Ultima Blade
a magic grenade or the ring
2 royal arms for stat boosts

>>382081527
It's not people. It's one guy (XV-kun) who thinks that this SBK91 person is the only guy shitting on XV
>>
>>382077661

All memes aside, DmC has better gameplay than FFXV. You can argue that FFXV has more depth, but those extra layers don't change the fact that the responsiveness of the controls took a backseat to how cinematic the comba is. DmC is an ok action game with a lot to live up to. FFXV was a bad action game that could never live up to a decade of hype.
>>
>>382081194
>Why would I need to do that
Are you saying you can't?

>when an enemy being stuck in a hitstun is neither required to be good
It is the literal definition of a combo. A series of attacks guaranteed to land once the first connects, provided the player doesn't fuck up, as the enemy is trapped in hitstun.

>nor is it even something anyone gives a shit about?
>who cares about good hitstun in an Action game
Are you fucking stupid.

>>
>>382082006
Cute hostility, but I'm telling you how it is. The average person who played FFXV held circle and pressed square once in awhile and that was the combat system of FFXV as far as they saw the entirety of their experience.

The complete lack of difficulty is probably more the culprit than anything else. If the game actually demanded you to be flexible, utilize warpstrikes consistently, use air combos, armiger, magic, etc... then people would've had to do so. It would've either propelled people into feeling better about the combat, or really served to highlight how bad the combat is when you engage it at at that level.

Either way, the combat falls terribly short because there's nothing in the game that can't be beat by holding down circle and square-ing when prompted on-screen like a QTE.

>When did the Final Fantasy fanbase stand up and say "We never want to see that again, please experiment haphazardly with retarded new combat systems."?

Not anon but clearly all they did was have high level weapons like royal arms and just kept attacking, them being level 1 meant nothing. Levels as far as I can tell only increase HP and MP so clearly this person had very strong items equipped and possibly ate a meal which increased stats.

>The definition of a combo is "In video games, a combo (short for combination) is a term that designates a set of actions performed in sequence"
Why are you citing Wikipedia, and why did you leave out half the text and context.

>In video games, a combo (short for combination) is a term that designates a set of actions performed in sequence, usually with strict timing limitations, that yield a significant benefit or advantage. The term originates from fighting games where it is based upon the concept of a striking combination. "
>In fighting games, combo specifically indicates a timed sequence of moves which produce a cohesive series of hits, each of which leaves the opponent unable or almost unable to block or otherwise avoid the following hits in the sequence.
XV's do not have strict timing, do not yield a significant advantage nor benefit, and do not leave the enemy helpless. XV does not have combos.

Both KH and XV have little to no hitstuns. You're literally not allowed to punish enemies with combos in the traditional sense. It's why I fucking hate both. The only real "hitstun" in XV is "vulnerable" which is done after breaking an appendage or warping from long distances.

"While Noctis is in an animation of attacking, a player cannot cancel that attack and command him to do other things, including switching weapon, dodge, guard, and so on. So, be careful to only execute combos while an enemy is truly vulnerable."

It's strong when you get it and useful against larger enemies.

Bow is an RA what the fuck does that have to do with guns which have elemental properties and also exploits the shot resistence on enemies so you can break them easier like with cerberus

A teleport. Like Air Trick.

That is the definition you idiot, you cut off half of it and ignored its origin and what it most commonly references, a sequences of hits the enemy has to eat in its entirety. DMC has true combos. DmC has true combos. XV doesn't.
>>
>>382084158
Wow you're full of shit.

Go and do a regular combo against a sabertusk or imperial rifleman, you can cancel out by unlocking blink and dodging, you can switch weapons while attacking, your shield guard is even more responsive than dodge roll because it has less start up. Vulnerable itself is a state you send an enemy into. If I'm attacking a sabertusk or imperial rifleman or regular MT or goblin etc, they're not gonna break out of your combo, while only stronger higher level enemies can which is why you're encouraged to be more vigilant hence why blink exists to cancel out of attacks straight to dodge when you really need it.

>It's strong when you get it

It isn't any better against larger enemies than small ones, if anything its worse since its sustained DPS is garbage.

>Bow is an RA what the fuck does that have to do with guns
Its better than guns in every way.

But only Noctis can kill Ardyn. Who else in the game can kill Ardyn when Bahamut specifically states only Noctis can?

First of all SBK91, you're the only one who acts like SBK91 is just a boogeyman, yet you just confirm yourself every time.

You seriously tried to argue that Lightning could beat Ardyn because she had a goddesses power, yet ignore that Etro isn't any more powerful than the gods in XV who can't kill Ardyn and is specifically stated only Noctis can, because only the chosen king can kill Ardyn.

You then in all your butthurt brought up a non sequitur about abrahamic gods because you knew your argument was dead. Like holy fucking shit you are the most pathetic piece of shit I've ever seen.

Again you clearly have no idea what point warping is. Point warp is a TERRAIN based warp where Noctis warps to marked out places on the battlefield like high up towers or rocks or other structures on which he regains MP for doing so.

I didn't cut off anything, I posted the relevant part of what a combo means. You then posted additional text to do with fighting games while having no idea what you're even trying to say. XV has true combos and you can't prove otherwise.

It's useful when you get it and whenever you want to use it.

It is useful against larger enemies.

The sheer fact that 7r is already confirmed to be split into multiple games means it'll never be truly finished because the ending won't be in the game that has the beginning.

Literally no game in the past has done this before. We just had NieR let you play as 3 different perspectives, each with unique gameplay and it never detracted from being either character's story. Even TW3 let's you play as Ciri, to flesh out events, even though it was primarily Geralt's story

>>382092320
>Speaking with Game Informer, director Hajime Tabata says the narrative direction was entirely intentional – namely the important events that happened off-screen. “It was for the players to experience the story through Noctis’ eyes,” he told the magazine. “The world and the events that Noctis sees are merely things that are seen through his eyes. We didn’t want to create a comprehensive and perfectly balanced story in this game. Instead, we placed importance on the main characters and for the player and Noctis to share the same experience when we tell the story.”

>With this sort of narrative design philosophy in hand, Tabata said it was only natural to increase the proportion in which the main characters are depicted. “It’s not that we decreased the role of the side characters,” he explained. “Focusing on many characters in the game means that the allocation given to the main characters will decrease. Instead of creating a comprehensive and perfectly balanced story, we placed greater importance on the four main characters and strived to depict a world seen from their perspective.”

Tell that to Tabata.

It looks surprisingly decent with the side quests and plot looks as if it was directed better. How does it play? How is Aranea as a party member here too?

You are actually a retard. I just showed you an enemy not doing anything. Not winding up. Not attacking. Not doing anything. And it still doesn't even react to your attacks--like a hollow doll. A lot of enemies in the game are like this. You literally throw around the concept of "hyperarmor" when you don't even know what it is.

>>382092518
>Anything important in KG is learned in the game anyway
No it's not, you don't see any of the events that transpire in KG in the game at all. Someone who hasn't seen KG will have no idea how Luna got the ring, how Ravus got his arm wounded or who the fuck Nyx is for example. All which add to varying degrees of appreciating the overall narrative, the fact that the Niflheim invasion isn't in the game is a complete joke and not even you can defend it.

It was lame as fuck. Honestly. Nevermind the fact that you already know what happens because the DLC are interesting chunks taken out of the game, but it's incredibly safe and predictable. Everything you think is going to happen happens, no surprises. And how they handled the Propmto-Verstael father-son dynamic was so one note. I was expecting Luke-Vader levels of family tragedy but Verstael didn't really give a shit about Prompto. It was really one sided. There were millions of MT babies and Verstael only cared about his project.

There was a fake leak a couple days ago that was more interesting than what we got. The leak said that Aranea was revealed to be a test-tube MT baby and essentially Prompto's sister, and I got hyped as fuck because that sounded like an interesting dynamic. But instead Aranea just randomly shows up, speaks a bunch of bravado, calls Prompto "kid" and fucks off.

The combat is surprisingly more fun to play than both Noctis and Gladio, but it's still easy as shit.The final boss is literally a turret section that overstays it's welcome

They also just completely forget to explain how Prompto was kidnapped and locked in jail cell in Gralea. But what's strange is that they show him heading to Gralea, and then all of a sudden he's locked up without even explaining what happens.

It's more story than ep Gladio.

Combat is different from both main game and ep Gladio but a bit more closer to main game than ep Gladio is.

Prompto has four slots on the Dpad, left is always the baton weapon for melee that does a basic three hit combo and a finisher to steal guns.
Up is always handgun which Ardyn gives to Prompto, it has unlimited bullets and works sort of like guns Noctis uses but faster and there's a finisher.
Right is the TPS weapon slot where you can use an SMG with 100 bullets, a sniper rifle with 5 or a bazooka with 3 on it, picking one of these 3 weapons up replaces it with the previous one you had on, unless you pick up the same weapon time it just restores ammo.
Standard TPS controls here with target reticle and manual aiming.
Bottom is grenades.
You also have a dodge roll, can stealth kill by crouching behind unsuspecting soldiers and there is a hit recovery where if you hit dodge right after being hit he'll cancel the fall and recover while restoring the HP just lost.

you also have tech command called bullet arts, one just takes a pic, the other does a flare to lower enemy stats. Aranea has dragoon dive and highwind and you get trigger happy after clearing it.
It starts off in a military base before out into an open snow area. Sidequests are done to gain CPU chips that upgrade the snowmonile and get items since they're sparse. The cutscenes in general look much better than the average cutscenes in the main game, and there are some really nice story moments.
Aranea as a party member has some new link attacks with prompto and it's much easier getting through the high level sidequests with her around. At the end you can fight her like you can Cor in ep Gladio. The boss fights are ok but while I liked the Gilgamesh and Cor boss fights in ep Gladio better, everything else in ep Prompto was better than ep Gladio

You learn the important stuff of KG in the game.

Ignis literally says Luna got the ring while in the crown city while on their way to Altissia, same with Ravus losing his arm while in the crown city, and Nyx was expendable hence why he's not even important to the overarching story, you learn that the invasion happened in the game, you learn that Regis was killed in the game, you learn that Luna has the ring in the game, you learn who the kings of Lucis are in the game, you learn about the peace treaty in the game. Pay attention. Anything important that happens in kg is learned in the game.

Yeah I still don't get it.

How is it irrelevant? I just proved to you that XV delivered the bare minimum and charged for things that are typically in games--leaving itself incredibly disjointed. Seeing the other events wouldn't have detracted at all from Noctis' story, while also filling needed gaps to alleviate The outcry from fans is also an indicator that it being exclusively told from Noctis' perspective and hiding certain events because of the fact was bad direction.

>Witcher 3 is Geralt's story and resolved within the game. Still shows you Ciri's perspective to flesh out gaps
>NieR is essentially 3 party's stories that intertwine and each one is resolved within the game. Seeing the story from different perspectives doesn't detract from each others. Hell, you could argue that it's primarily 9S's story and it's reinforced and amplified by the addition of the other perspectives

Tabata is a hack who relies entirely on external factors in his game direction. This is why XV is a failure. It has no character of its own. Just a cynical product of careful focus tests and online surveys. This is why Tabata is a drop of a turd compared to Taro, Miyazaki, Kojima etc etc. A SE board puppet dressed as an author.
>>
Yeah, combat system is trash. It appears to action oriented, but in fact it's a mmo style target lock. Example:
>fighting a bunch of crocodile monsters
>there is an croco ass right in front of you
>ripe for a blindside attack
>bros are near, so it will be a devastating link-attack
>Noctis is facing it, so you push stivk towards it and attack
>Noctis turns away and attack the air, because camera wasn't this enemy
>it was turned away to observe the rest of the battlefield, so soft lock switched to a distant enemy
I fucking hate this.
And neither of character DLC managed to fix it. Gladio will still automatically turn to targeted enemy, so all you need to do is tack enemies with camera, Prompto's revolver is the same shit as in base game, only disposable guns have a crosshair.
AI is also dumd as rock, bros would very often run right into enemy attack and die, wasting consumables. I'm sure this coud be avoided by simple orders, like aggressive/defensive/stay close/spread out/do whatever.
>>
>>382093968
Why do you keep showing clips of these giant bosses not getting staggered when Sora hits them? The entire point of why hitstun exists as a mechanic is to simulate the displacement of mass that comes from striking an object, and a creature like the Hydra or giant Ursula are just way too big to be pushed back by Sora's little key swings and it would look ridiculous otherwise. Look at any of the humanoid bosses and all of them, even the absolute most powerful ones in the game, can be properly staggered and juggled because KH2 actually uses a smartly designed physics system to determine that stuff.

Meanwhile, Noctis will frequently wail on enemies his own size or smaller than him with no visible effect whatsoever.

You're the absolute worst kind of shitposter
>>
>>382095328

It indeed was; being a guy who has yet to play XV and is waiting for the complete version, I was surprised it was so cordial.

Just goes to show how counter productive XV-kun's efforts are. If he just let go and posted normally, XV wouldn't be nearly be shit on so much.
>>
>>382094667
You just told me what other games did in their stories which is irrelevant to XV.

If you play XV you get the main story of Noctis, his story concludes in the game. Ep Gladio, Prompto and Ignis are their own self contained sidestories.

You gave automata as an example, except in thst you need to get multiple endings to get the true ending, which is why you have automata fans crying at people who only did the A ending, like that reviewer who gave it a 6/10 because he only beat ending A.

If I play episode Gladio I'm not learning some massive insight into Noctis or his calling, I'm seeing Gladio and Cor fighting daemons and eating noodles at camp with a few minutes of story about Gilgamesh or Cor each time.
>>

I had Ff15 for a day, just traded it in for FFX/X-2 instead.

Rather play that again than this. The main characters are annoying. The game boils down to fetch quests and the combat is fucking awful.

Unless nobody has noticed already in the game play videos of FF7R is just FF15 with a FF7 skin on top of it.

Squaresoft can just fuck right off and I hope the company goes bankrupt.
>>
Is it just me or does next to nothing happen in this game? Before it came out it was very mysterious and there was all sorts of speculation and theories about the plot but it feels like almost all the big events occurred offscreen with different characters and there's barely enough information/lore to confirm or deny anything, like Noctis is playing a bit part in his own game or something.

They funded NieR and NieR Automata. That has to be worth something. That said, people keep asking when Taro gets to make his own FF, and I don't want him to, because he would be stuck working with SE devs, which means the game is going to suck.

Automata's combat isn't much better than XV's desu, it's just mashing Square and dodge so you can get a perfect dodge which is the only way to launch enemies in that game and consequently the only way to do anything cool and Automata also has the same problem as XV with healing items.

>Then why are there an enemy knockback when they hit 0HP?
Because at that point the enemy is dead so it would topple over regardless. Are you actually this retarded?

>XV has hyperarmor as well while KH doesn't
"Hyperarmor" means frames of an animation where the character will resist hitstun unless hit with an attack strong enough to break the armor.

In KH2, Marluxia for example, has hyperarmor on most of his scythe attacks; he can't be stunned by normal attacks during those moves, but if hit with a strong enough attack like a finisher or if he's hit when not doing those specific animations, he'll be stunned just like any other enemy of his size. That's hyperarmor.

XV has enemies like the Coeurls the other anon showed that will ignore even strong attacks from Noctis, even while they aren't even attacking or taking any action besides basic movement, and even though that same attack would inflict hitstun on other similarly sized enemies. That isn't hyperarmor, that's just a lack of proper combat physics.

People have been saying it for over a decade, why can't they just stick to what made the series great in the first place? It's crazy.

After playing 15 I've lost all faith in FF7R and I'm just going to play it for the ability to visit the world in a modern day setting, as a game I think it'll be a big let down though.

This will be the next and last purchase I made of a SE product.

I'm not even talking about the dlc, those episodes could have not existed and the plot would be largely unchanged. I'm more talking about the invasion of insomnia, the fall of niflheim, the death of shiva, whatever was going on with Luna, elaboration on the demons and starscourge, the importance of the crystal and the lucian kings/knights of the round and probably a whole lot of other things I'm forgetting. It just feels like they got too lazy to flesh these things out so they made them happen somewhere else to someone else and you could read about them later.

So you're saying it has knockback but onky after a string of attacks that didn't even make it flinch are dealt down to 0?

hyperarmor means enemies that can resist/tank your hits regardless which larger enemies in XV have.

Also Couerl do have knockback so you fuck off with your cherrypicked webms only showing their hyperarmor
>>
>>382096561
You're right, I physically owned the copy for 3 days, played it for no more than 2 hours in one sitting and then exchanged it in when I was next out shopping.

I bought Type O HD for the demo and was sorely disappointed by it then, but hoped it'd be a work in progress but the main game would have changed. It hadn't.

I found myself warping away from battles after an hour, realising this is how put off I was by the combat so early in the game, I cut my losses and uninstalled it from my PS4.

>>382095702
>You just told me what other games did in their stories which is irrelevant to XV.
I just demonstrated to you that multiple perspectives don't detract from the main character's story and can in fact serve to amplify it.

>You gave automata as an example, except in thst you need to get multiple endings to get the true ending, which is why you have automata fans crying at people who only did the A ending, like that reviewer who gave it a 6/10 because he only beat ending A.
I don't know why you're bringing up NieR's endings, and I don't really care about uninformed individuals. Missing the rest of the game is on them. Also, Ending A/B can't be considered as a real ending as route C picks up right after. Ending A is supposed to be understood as Ending to route A, same with B. Like, the end of an Act in a play, it actually follows a similar structure. You don't have to get multiple endings to get either one of the real endings (C/D/E). All the other 22 endings are just joke endings.

>If I play episode Gladio I'm not learning some massive insight into Noctis or his calling
No but you get massive insight into the group aspect of the game, which is arguably as important as Noctis' journey. Seeing Gladio's efforts to attain as much power to effectively protect the King on his journey is quite important for the "brother journey" aspect.

>>382096905
Yeah they aren't covered because anything not explicitly in Noctis' line of sight (even though this is broken several times throughout) isn't conveyed directly to the player since they tried to make it 'Noctis' story'.

I think that line from Tabata is more just PR and sugarcoating how rushed the game was towards the end and they fucked up big time in the story department.

Incorrect. Automata had better combat, a better setting, better VA, better music, and a better story. XV wins on graphics alone.

>So you're saying it has knockback but onky after a string of attacks that didn't even make it flinch are dealt down to 0?
I'm saying that a dead animal would fall over regardless of what killed it. That isn't hitstun or knockback, it's the creature dying and falling down.

>hyperarmor means enemies that can resist/tank your hits regardless which larger enemies in XV have.
No, hyperarmor is a term from fighting games that very specifically refers to points in an animation where the character resists hitstun from attacks up to a certain level of strength. You don't get to broaden the definition of established terms to fit your argument.

>Also Couerl do have knockback so you fuck off with your cherrypicked webms only showing their hyperarmor
And sometimes they don't, and whether they do or not isn't dependent on what move they're doing or what animation they're in, and it isn't consistent with how other enemies in the game behave. Which means it's not hyperarmor, it's just bad physics.
>>
>>382096976
I thought Automata was a bit disappointing but even I'm not this delusional. The soundtrack to that game was better than the entirety of XV and the first time you visited the amusement park was better than anything in XV as well.

>dodge so you can get a perfect dodge which is the only way to launch enemies

Have you even played the game? Probably not, because you'd know that that isn't the only way to launch enemies.

>it's just mashing Square
There's a lot more to it than that. You forget that the combat blends bullet hell and platinum style combat. This game actually requires precise movement and environmental awareness. There's also tons of ways the enemy can deter you from just "mashing X" like EMPs, Spiked Shields Etc. The game constantly forces you to change your play-style and the chips help accentuate that. It also rewards you with massive damage for playing stylishly, like previous Platinum games

No you told me games where the different perspectives is the main story, XV is not that. Main story is told in XV, the DLC are all side stories that are self contained.

You're the one that brought up Nier, yet you ignored that multiple endings is part of the main story in that. Hence why if someone stopped at ending A you have a swarm of fanboys trying to act like you didn't play the full game. You're argument is invalid.
>>
>>382097083
I completed the demo, hated it.

I played for about 2-3 hours and immediately hated it.

I then sold the game.

The fact that I hated it still remains true. The combat was fucking terrible. I looked at her development tree and it was unappealing, the characters made zero impact on me. The music was annoying. Though I like the Stand by me song, the fact that they've taken on a real life song in the game showed to me how unimaginative it is.

I've gone past the point of playing through a game for hours upon hours in the hope it grows on me.

I'll level with you and agree that perhaps the title of "Ending A/B" can be misunderstood as ending of the game, but it's not. It's not because Route C literally picks up after Route A/B making them not actual endings. Think of it like the ending of an Act. So you can't call A/B "multiple endings to get to the actual ending". It's just like intermission of a play. Honestly, in this day and age, being so uninformed as to stop at ending A is on the individual. There's also a message after Ending A that informs the player to keep playing the game.

"knockback" isn't a term used anywhere. There's hitstun, launches, juggles, and pushback, which all refer to specific things, but "knockback" is the exact sort of phrase that someone who doesn't actually play or understand games that use these mechanics would say.

The combat is XV is quite good.
The problem is items are unless. They need to put a timer on them so you can't just spam potions to stay alive and have to learn the combat.

Really though even if you do some honor code no item run, the main problem is the enemies design sucks. Attack patterns and the number of enemies gives no reason to look the deeper mechanics of the combat because you can brute force your way though. So even if someone ran into a hard fight in the game, they would assume they are under leveled/gear and just need to grind so they can brute force though it.

If there was a NG+ hard option of having the enemies scale to your level, as well as a timer on items. The combat would seem better. It would help if they added in some training dummys so you could actually practice the combat as well. Having to fight random dogs who interrupt your combos makes it almost impossible to learn the combat.

>>382098235

>>382098136
He's referring to an enemy dying and falling over after it's health reaches zero as "knockback". That's nonsense. We're talking about the presence of hyperarmor, which specifically refers to a character resisting hitstun during an animation. Hitstun is a character flinching upon being struck. An enemy's dying animation is not hitstun or knockback or anything of the sort, and it has nothing to do with hyperarmor. They're completely unrelated.

It's all a ridiculous strawman argument anyways, as he's only ever been able to show giant enemies in KH resisting knockback, which he admits giant enemies in XV do as well, and they also fall back and topple over when they die, so in that regards they're the same.

The difference is that KH has consistent physics when it comes to staggering, or "knockback", on smaller enemies, whereas XV doesn't, and that's been proven several times over, but he won't actually answer any of those arguments because he knows he's wrong.

To be fair, all video games are a waste of time. It's their purpose. But one should at least get enjoyment out of their wasted time. It's time that you will never get back. Once it's gone, it's gone forever.

Even though FFXV is short for a FF game, its not as short as say, MW2's story. It's still fairly long for a modern game. But it's a game that is also very shit.

When I legitimately got more enjoyment from Drakengard 2 than I did from XV, all while recognizing that Drakengard 2 is a huge piece of shit, that is a huge problem for XV.

>>382097692
I know they are more like acts, that's the point I'm getting at, those "endings" are an intentional part of the main story and my point is that you're not supposed to stop at A, hence why I mentioned how that one reviewer who did and gaave it a 6/10 got burned alive by the fandom because he didn't finish the game. While in XV the main story is already told within the main game and it resolves, and the DLC stuff is self contained side stories. Which is why I'm saying you're comparison of games liek automata or witcher where playing as other characters IS part of the main story doesn't have anything to do with anything, because in XV the main story has you play as Noctis from start to end and his story concludes, yes there is other stories now being told through other characters, that's besides the point.

You know that when you make claims like that, that unless its true (it isn't even close), that it just makes people knee-jerk into the exact opposite of what you're claiming. Someone thinking it was acceptable suddenly thinks that it was below average.

But Jack from NieR (not Automata) blows the Ifrit fight out of the water. So does Xemnas from Kingdom Hearts 2Ifrit, while being one of the better fights in XV, is pretty underwhelming when compared to boss fights outside of XV.

I deleted the game after the Carnival. The fact that Square Enix couldn't make a game good enough for me to keep around (despite being a digital purchase) and is the 2nd game I've ever gotten rid of isn't my fault. That's theirs.

You may also note that I never said anything good or bad about the DLC shit. That doesn't stop the main game from being an irredeemable mess.

Definitely, I should say that I really enjoyed Automata and the ending is one of the most memorable experiences. 2017 has been a pretty good year for video games and I'm still looking forward to Xenoblade and Odyssey.

>He's referring to an enemy dying and falling over after it's health reaches zero as "knockback".
Maybe if you actually played KH2 you'd know that it is still a part of the enemy knockback, KH2 has no hyperarmor while XV does which is another thing you don't get, you also keep ignoring the fact that XV does have knockback on enemies as well as hitstop on every hit regardless, while KH2 has little to no hitstop at all including on enemies without hitstun, and I'm not talking about a dynamic animation, I'm talking about the final hit you land on the enemy.

In KH2 when fighting those hydra heads none of them react at all to any hits you do until the very last hit before they're dead.

Not to mention all you keep fucking doing is reposting the same coeerl and giant enemies in XV, while also ignoring that human enemies in XV are counted as boss type which gives them their hyperarmor too which is why the bros have it at camp and why aranea, ardyn and ravus have it too.

Again why the fuck are you ignoring goblins, sabertusks, imperial troops, imps etc? You've been proven wrong countless times and you still can't fucking deal with it.

Wendy was great, but Jack was probably one of the most exciting and exhausting fights I've ever experienced. I literally felt tired after the Emil looked at Kaine. It was such a long fight, filled with a ton of plot being dropped throughout.

If the goal was to make you feel like you had given your all, yet still feel like shit, they succeeded. Which is very impressive to do in a video game.
>>
>>382099620
>Knockback is part of hitstun, as in the enemy physically reacting to a hit and recoiling from it
Which has absolutely nothing to do with the enemy toppling over once it's health reaches zero. The Hydra in KH2 doesn't get stunned normally because it's the size of a building, and Sora's strikes don't have enough weight behind them to move it. When it's HP reaches zero, then it dies and falls back. That isn't hitstun or knockback. It's just the enemy's dying animation.

>i simply just means enemies that can resist/tank your hits regardless, which larger enemies in XV have.
And so do larger enemies in KH. The difference is that smaller enemies stagger consistently in KH and they don't stagger consistently in XV. When smaller enemies in KH do resist your hits, they do it via a clearly telegraphed animation. That's what "hyperarmor" has always meant; a specific animation or period of an animation where the character will resist getting stunned by incoming attacks. When smaller enemies resist your hits in XV, there's no animation or anything to signify that the enemy will resist your attacks.

>in a way to convenietly excludes it from applying to XV
So are you admitting then that enemies in XV don't have what I defined earlier as "hyperarmor"? As in, they'll resist hitstun from attacks regardless of what they're actually doing? If so, then I'd challenge you to actually explain what determines the hyperarmor that the enemies in XV have. What makes a Magitek soldier flinch back when getting hit with some light dagger cuts but allows a similarly-sized Coeurl that's doing absolutely nothing to take a long distance warp strike and not even react?

If so I agree that's a great sequence as well, same with the Shadowlord. I would love if Nier got an actual remake, it would probably be one of my favorite games of all time. The reason I found Automata a bit disappointing was mostly I found the characters and their dynamics nowhere near as good as the ones in Nier.

>>382100532
>Which has absolutely nothing to do with the enemy toppling over once it's health r
Yes it does because the final hit on an enemy is what knocks them down, ergo knockback.

>Hydra in KH2 doesn't get stunned normally
What does this have to do with anything? Why does only the last hit do something but it can't do anthing on the hits leading up to that? At least XV still has hitstop and rumble to give you feedback on your hits, KH2 doesn't do shit on those regular hits against it and there is no visible hitstop at all, sora just looks like he's slicing air and the enemy doesn't care yet it's HP is going down just because.

The final hit against the enemy is the only one that even acts as a normal hit you'd do againt regular enemies.

>And so do larger enemies in KH.
No they don't, they don't even have hitstop to indicate any sort of impact, while in XV all hits do, including the ones where an enemies hyperarmor is in play, and the smaller enemies in XV stagger constnatly, not to mention every enemy staggers from shield blocks with blockstun in XV.

Where is the clearly telegraphed attacks that hydra is doing just flailing it's head around doing fuck all? Meanwhile how is the Iron Giants swirds in XV not clearly telegraphed? How is the Hobgobbling doing a windup punch right before he punches not a clearly telegraphed attack? How is the Coerul sitting down charging it's electricity then getting up to attack not a clearly telegraphed attack? You have absolutely no clue what hyperarmor is nor do you even know what knockback is.

Seriously you sound like you havn't played XV at all because no one who has actually played it could be this fucking clueless about how it works.

And your definition of hyperarmor is some shit you pulled out of your ass, all hyperarmor is is when the enemy tanks through your hits, in XV enemies have this and still have hits with knockback on them, in KH they don't have hyperarmor, in KH they just didn't give some enemies hitstun.
>>
>>382100383
>Maybe if you actually played KH2
Should I post my platinum in that game too? It's on the same PSN profile I showed earlier.

>KH2 has no hyperarmor
Marluxia has hyperarmor on his scythe swings. Lexaeus gains hyper armor when he's powered up. Large Bodies and Fat Bandits will resist anything less than a finisher attack.

>hitstop
Who cares? That's purely visual flair.

>In KH2 when fighting those hydra heads none of them react at all to any hits you do until the very last hit before they're dead.
Because they're the size of small buildings. Of course a meter long key isn't going to knock them around. But guess what, bash something in the head enough, it'll die and fall over.

>ignoring that human enemies in XV are counted as boss type which gives them their hyperarmor too
I haven't even once mentioned the humanoid bosses in XV. I have though, talked about the humanoid bosses in KH2, and how they have consistent hitstun physics with other similarly sized enemies, while also having hyperarmor on certain attacks.

>why the fuck are you ignoring goblins, sabertusks, imperial troops, imps
The entire point I'm making is that the enemies aren't consistent with one another. Sometimes they're not even consistent with themselves, and the Coeurls are a perfect example because they should stagger just as easily as any other small enemy, yet they mysteriously don't.

>>382100862
I'm not saying they should react the exact same way. I'm pointing out how inconsistent it is that a light attack will stagger one enemy, yet a strong attack will go completely ignored by a different enemy that's doing nothing to show that it should be able to resist an attack like that. If the enemy actually has hyperarmor on certain moves or if it's too large or heavy to be staggered normally, that's fine. The problem comes when the game is completely inconsistent about what will stun an enemy and what won't.

>>
>>382080906
Not only that, but the mix of overdesigned ennemies, large groups of opponents and and barely telegraphed attacks turns every battle into a chaotic mess made even worse by the fact that you have 3 companions. At some point you're just spamming the evade when you feel like the ennemy is going to attack soon.

Hellfire was done by both Shimomura and Suzuki, Hellfire uses teh compositions Shimomura did for Apocolypsis Noctis and Cosmogony with some added arrangement flair from Suzuki, Same with Ravus Aeterna which uses Shimomura's composition for Theme of the Empire/The Aggressors and Shimomura's composition for Song of the stars with Suzuki putting more arrangement flair to them.

Shimomura didn't compose the lestallum town music, nor did suzuki.

We're talking about actual game mechanics here. If you really wanna get into that, KH2 has visual and audio feedback when you hit an enemy that isn't there when you're "slicing through air."

>No they don't
So what do you call it when Sora hits the Hydra and he doesn't react? Explain the difference between Sora hitting a big enemy and it doesn't react, versus Noctis hitting a big enemy and it doesn't react.

>Where is the clearly telegraphed attacks that hydra is doing
The Hydra weighs a gazillion tons, it doesn't need an animation to show that a dinky key smack isn't going to affect it much. Just like I'm not criticizing big enemies in XV that don't recoil when you hit them, because that actually makes sense and is consistent.

>How is the Coerul sitting down charging it's electricity then getting up to attack not a clearly telegraphed attack
Did you miss the webm of the Coeurl standing perfectly still and tanking a long distance warp strike?

>And your definition of hyperarmor is some shit you pulled out of your ass
It's literally the definition that's been being used in fighting games for decades.

>in KH they don't have hyperarmor
So what do you call it when Marluxia and Lexaeus will resist hitstun during certain animations, but not others? What do you call it when a Large Body heartless resists hitstun from a normal attack, but not a finisher?

You can barely even call that autobattle shit combat because you never feel in control of anything, and tehre was nothing memorable about it, meanwhile XV has one of the most memorable OSTs to date with some of the best tracks in JRPG ever with Hellfire, Somnus, Veilved in Black, Valse Di Fantastica just to name a few.

I can't even remember how a single XCX track goes other than instantly thinking of shitty techno rap

>Should I post my platinum in that game too? It's on the same PSN profile I showed earlier.
I don't worry I believe you have autism.

>B-BUT HIS SCYHTH
Literally not an argument is your entire example is ONE fucking thing in the entire game, which isn't even hyperarmor to begin with, and large bodies resisting you is not hyperarmor either.

>Who cares? That's purely visual flair.
Who doesn't care? It's purely an effect for visual feedback which XV does far better than any and all KH games.

>Because they're the size of small buildings.
Literally not an argument when they have knockback on the very last hit. Hitting something for 20 hits without it reacting then on the 21st hit it suddenly reacts means it did have knockback, just a shitty one because they don't know how to make KH good, and they don't know how important hitstop is to make impacts on hits that don't have hitstun are.

>The entire point I'm making is that the enemies aren't consistent with one another.
Except the point is they are consistent in what type of enemy they are based on their size and classification, and the coeruls are actually bigger than Noctis, just because they are on all 4s doesn't mean they are smaller just because they're crouching.

>I'm pointing out how inconsistent
No you're ignoring how KH is actually inconsistent in it while in XV it is consistent because it's based on actual enemy scale, things like goblins, hobgoblins, sabertusks, imperial riflemen all have knockback at every hit, stuff like Coeurl, Mandrake, Magitek Assasins, wyverns have them occasionally because they are bigger than Noctis but can also break out and have their hyperarmor kick in, much bigger enemies like Behemoth, Garula, Iron Giant tank your hits yet they all still have hitstop and feel impactful, and you have blockstun when using shield blocks against any of them when you deflect their attack at the last second.

You should be asking the same group of fags that try shitting up XV threads every time that.

>>382101535
More like you invested too much time shitting on it prerelease and it's too late for you to admit it's good.
>>
>>382102456
>it's too late for you to admit it's good.
I was taught from a young age that lying is bad and saying XV is good is one of the biggest and worst lies I could tell.

Friendly reminder Breath of the Wild's open world is objectively better.

Uematsu is credited on a few of the tracks like the chocobo theme, prelude and main theme even though they were arranged by Shimomura so yes.

Hellfire is the best boss track in any FF or JRPG.

Just no. Skyrim fucking wishes it was as good as Hellfire.

> is your entire example is ONE fucking thing in the entire game,
I've listed several things, actually.

>which isn't even hyperarmor to begin with
> large bodies resisting you is not hyperarmor either.

>>382099620
>i simply just means enemies that can resist/tank your hits regardless, which larger enemies in XV have.
So which is it?

> they have knockback on the very last hit.
Again
>knockback
>dying animation
Choose one. The "knockback" that you see on the last hit is the enemy dying and falling over. It isn't the enemy recoiling from the weight of Sora's attack, which is what knockback and hitstun are.

>KH is actually inconsistent
Small enemies can be easily staggered and juggled, unless they're doing a specific action that gives them hyperarmor. This goes for Shadows, Soldiers, Dusks, the Organization members, and Terra's LW. All the way from the weakest to the strongest, that's consistent.

Medium sized enemies like Large Bodies and Fat Bandits take stronger hits like a finisher to knockback. That's consistent.

Giant enemies like Hydra and Jafar won't react at all unless it's something special like a Reaction Command. That's also consistent.

>Just no. Skyrim fucking wishes it was as good as Hellfire.
You've got to be kidding. That entire song just screams of "how do we make a song as good as Skyrim?"

The final hit you do on an enemy before they die is still a regular hit, and how they react is still a regular reaction, dying animation happens AFTER the knockback.

>We're talking about actual game mechanics here.
Yeah and i'm talking about feedback from hits which hitstop is, which rumble is. KH doesn't do any sort of hitstop and it looks like shit as a result.

>Explain the difference between Sora hitting a big enemy and it doesn't react, versus Noctis hitting a big enemy and it doesn't react.
Except there is hitstop alongside the effect of the hit sparks from the weapson when Noctis hits it so it implies it was a strong hit with impact but only not strong enough to deter the enemy from stopping it's current action, while in KH Sora just hits an enemy and it looks like he's slicing air when they have no hitstun, and because there is no hitstop it just looks shit because there's no impact at all or any visual feedback letting you know you hit it other than the shitty sparks/stars coming out of the keyblade when you whack something.

>The Hydra weighs a gazillion tons,
LITERALLY NOT A FUCKING ARGUMENT

> it doesn't need an animation to show that a dinky key smack isn't going to affect it much.
Yet it needs one on the final hit of the individual heads to know you just knocked it down?

>Did you miss the webm of the Coeurl standing perfectly still and tanking a long distance warp strike?
Did you miss the part where it was charging it's attack and the warpstrike hit while it's hyperarmor was active? And no that isn't, you have no idea what hyperarmor is.

I call that shitty animation which KH has throughout
>>
>>382102815
To be fair, I've never said you hold attack to win.

I said you hold dodge until a counter appears on the screen, and then tap attack once, and then go back to holding dodge in order to win.
>>
>>382103082
You actually wouldn't believe how viable of a method this is. Parrying deals way more damage than regular attacks.
>>
>>382102002
Somnus, Dawn, hell even recentlly Prompto's theme is so fucking beyond that. There is far more emotion behind these tracks than Automata has. Like holy fuck

I'm aware. I beat some level 110 samurai at level 30 doing that.

>>382102124
XV has a better OST than all of those.

Xenoblade and XCX both have the same offline MMO feel as FF12.
>>382102547
So you're in denial.

>>382103037
>dying animation happens AFTER the knockback
What you're calling "knockback" is the dying animation, you clod.

>hitstop
>hit sparks
>rumble
Stop embarrassing yourself.

>there's no impact at all or any visual feedback letting you know you hit it other than the shitty sparks/stars coming out of the keyblade when you whack something
>there's no visual feedback except for all this visual feedback

>LITERALLY NOT A FUCKING ARGUMENT
So why is it ok for big enemies in XV to not get stunned when Noctis hits them, but it's not ok for big enemies in KH2 to not get stunned when Sora hits them?

>Yet it needs one on the final hit of the individual heads to know you just knocked it down?
Yes, it does in fact need to fall down to show you that it fell down. Are you even reading what you type?

> it was charging it's attack
It most definitely was not. It was walking around when the warp strike hit it.

>And no that isn't
So again, what is it then? What's the difference when Sora hits an enemy and they tank the hit versus Noct hitting an enemy and they tank the hit?
>>
>>382103286
>XV is among the best FFs to date
Why do you keep flip flopping? I recall you calling it THE best FF not too long ago. Is it the best FF or not?

Any game that lets you beat a boss that is 90 levels ahead of you just by cheesing the counter function is not a good game.

>Xenoblade and XCX both have the same offline MMO feel as FF12.
Not if you actually bother to learn how to play (and if you don't one of the first bosses in the game will casual filter you hard).
>>
>>382102696
Shimomura was his boss and they both have compositional credits while he arranged it, she composed Apocolypsis Noctis and Cosmogony which Hellfire uses as it's melodic core and he arranged it into hellfire.

Which weren't hyperarmor.

>So which is it?
You're ignoring the part that it is hyperarmor in XV while it isn't in KH, in XV the enemies all still have hitstop even on attacks without hitstun, while in KH they don't even on attacks without hitstun, meaning KH does not have hyperarmor because nothing is being hyperarmored.

>Choose one
Knockback on the final hit happens before the death you stupid fucking retard. You just showed more how inconsistenet KH is.

What's the level 120 boss? The one that gives you a weapon for beating? I beat him at level 30.

Shimomura, nooooo! This really tarnishes her career.
