I don’t know what support for the DualSense is like on PC but the game seems to rely on gyro and haptic triggers for some features. I’ve only played the first few levels but I image the rest of them being this way too. For the controls alone I’d say it makes it less likely to be on PC (but they managed it with Returnal so who knows).

That’s actually great to hear. I might have to check it in that case. Thanks.

There’s no doubt about this. My favourites in the franchise usually differ from other people and fans that I know. It really does make it a pleasure being a fan of Final Fantasy as it holds such a diverse fandom that conversations often hold interesting takes, views and more.

I’d recognise Limsa Lominsa anywhere. I’ve been playing since 1.0, with some breaks here and there. FFXIV is one of my favourite games ever, for story and gameplay.

I hope you enjoy it and have a great experience. Feel free to join us at !finalfantasyxiv@lemmy.world as well.

No worries. Easy mistake to make.

Thanks for sharing! There’s also a local instance for !finalfantasyxiv@lemmy.world that I’ve recently taken over moderating.

We have !finalfantasyxiv@lemmy.world if you’re wanting a local instance.

How are the controls for this? I found FFXIV controls are great, not perfect but great, and was wondering how they compare. Getting a solid control scheme for an MMO isn’t easy.

I was on the fence for ages over whether it was going to be worth it. Thought I was taking a risk when I ordered the OLED one at release on a whim. It wasn’t a risk, the machine is incredible. I love it.

at the very least remakes should include a copy of the original game playable on the same device, either as a port or via emulation.

I’d love to see developers and publishers start to do this. Though I am interested in Tomb Raider and how they handle the graphic toggling, which seems like a half-way point to what you’re describing.

I remember this well from my childhood, so it was nice to see that trailer. I love how they seem to have barely changed anything except higher res textures and models. I’ll be looking at getting this when its out.

I mean if someone is addicted to only playing one really specific MMO or MOBA and it’s not available on Linux

I don’t know about other MMOs but Final Fantasy XIV runs incredibly well on the Steam Deck under Steam OS. It’s my current addiction but for this, at the moment there is no reason for me to go through Windows, and I like it this way.

Hope you don’t mind but I’ve linked this thread from !squareenix@lemmy.world. Thanks for putting it together.

I don’t either but this is such a great discussion. I’ve come across quite a few interesting sounding games here. Thanks OP.

Ridge Racer - Namco have really done it dirty and would love to see it revived. Take it back to basics as a pure arcade racer without the Burnout nonsense.

Timesplitters - Just pleeeeaaase.

Alundra - It was a JRPG on PSX and nothing ever came after the second game. It had loads of potential.

SSX - I still love the stupidity of those early games. Would love to see a fun another snowboarding game that doesn’t take it self seriously.

It’s surprised me as well. There’s some scenes, areas and fights that aren’t in this demo that I imagine will just cause a deck to grind to a halt.

There’s going to be negative comments, and that can’t be changed. But I do agree that they’re often through rose tinted glasses.

I’d disagree. I think the changes they’ve made with Eddie look great. He looks sickly and tired, unhinged and empty as a result of the bullying, lifestyles he’s led and the personal hell he’s experiencing.

We had a similar case in the UK, and the teacher lost their case after taking it to an employment tribunal. Hopefully this one goes the same direction.
