Because more people are getting the game and playing it. It might not be too active but it'll make finding impressions far easier than it is in here.

The base PS4 version iirc had the least frame pacing issues.

I will post impressions once i have finished atleast 5 chapters. I am just at the begginng of chapter 2 with around 3 hours and half on clock.
Oh you can take the car off road like in MGSV then? Awesome.
Seriously though FFXV looks pretty bad from all angles, the opening, the starting area that's devoid of anything interesting, the shockingly bad voice acting.
Maybe later areas will save it but right now I'm expecting reviews and impressions to be very very mixed

If you do the same combo and use the same weapon in an action game like Bayonetta, Devil May Cry, Rising or others, will you enjoy the game as much as someone who do crazy combos and use different weapons?
Trying new strategies and exploring the game's system isn't a bad game design.
Those games ask you to mix it up with new enemies constantly, though. It demands experimentation or else you won't necessarily succeed. A lot of games don't do that.
Adding body armor typically doesn't count because t doesn't actually change things too much.
I felt MGSV could've done more to encourage different play-styles and approaches, though.

I mean Bayonetta, DMC or Rising has some encounters or enemies that push you to use other weapons/moves to take advantage on their weakness, some even required to use like DmC Angel/Demon weapons based on enemies. MGSV has lots of weapons/tools that I see no need to use them because the basic ones are enough to finish the objectives. But it's just my opinion, you don't have to agree with me and I don't want to derail the thread too much. Thanks for replying me anyway
Don't google it. You have been warned
EDIT: It's funny seeing this kind of point being made about MGS V, that it's just as boring and repetitive as you allow it to be. I don't think it's completely wrong at all, but I've been at this for a long time already. This is one of the main things people say to defend Crysis, and I love that game. But I don't think just one of the arguments is the right one. It's both.
If you have this super well designed mission that allows you to approach it from many different perspectives and playstyles, that's incentive for replayability by itself. You don't need other missions to be basically the same thing and with little environmental variety. Don't worry, I'll replay the mission many times because I enjoy it, no need to actually have that same design repeating itself.
I replay character action games many many times, and I still think Dante's part of the game in DMC4 was half-assed. You'd think it doesn't make a difference, since I'll replay those levels many times anyway, but it definitely does.
Sit down, boy, let me tell you about the greatest thing ever created. It's called futanari.
Don't google that at work.

Have to agree that MGSV was very bland. It sure had a lot of creative ways and freedom to tackle scenarios but there was no incentive to use them unless you were one of the die hard fans that prefered S-ranking each mission. Even then, it was more about cheating the system to get an S-rank then occasional skills.
Those games encourage different combos and reward you for it
Im sure his colleagues and bosses would love to also learn about futas.

But you can dodge and button mash the same combo every time, I saw people do it and finish the game like this.

it lets you ride a chocobo tho.
imho mgs5 and ff15 gameplay wise is really the pique of their respective franchises.

MGS V encourages speed, efficiency and creative thinking.
Sweet.

Ehh silencer OP tho if you just wanna cheese
Hmmm, you're not wrong.
All of the impressions I've read on here so far remind me of XII. Funny since they both had long production and swapped directors (though Tabata got to do almost all of his own game other than the basic scenario and designs). If the gameplay is as full and fun as XII, then sign me up.

Please add me to the pm chain on this. I will be checking a few spots in NYC myself during my lunch break.

Chocos are for off-road.
The opening does seem weak, I'll grant you.
But I don't agree that the starting area is devoid of interest. Just in Judgement, which is apparently stripped of quite a bit, I found a lot of interesting stuff just poking around. Interesting ruins, environmental story telling, odd natural features, beautiful scenery while driving, interesting and challenging monsters.
It's definitely a barren environment, but quite beautiful, particularly with the dynamic day/night system. As I've said previously though, I suspect it would be better received as a second or third area after something a little more lush.
But what happens if... you google them together 0_0
Add me to the chain as well. I don't think it'll come out today... but i'm ready to pounce if it does! Going to start calling in a bit to see. I think Friday is more likely, if it's early.
Too bad it doesn't have a good story to go with that.

True. But to be fair a lot of games do have multiple clothing options, be it in DLC form. I usually don't give a shit but Gladiolusslsuusus or whatever the fuck his name is looks so BAD. Distractingly so for me. So I just want him to wear a fucking shirt ASAP.
Ever see Scanners?
I'd much rather play FFX's turn based gameplay.
And from the many videos i've seen of FFXV, it doesn't nail the immediate satisfying 1 to 1 fun of the later Kingdom Hearts real time gameplay, it just looks like a mess when enemies show up.

lol *head explodes
I'm with you here. I enjoyed the last demo, but FFX battle system is way more satisfying to me.
Damn it, I need to know where.

I pre-ordered mine from Simply Games a few months back (£32) so I hope it arrives early!!
How are you comparing the two ?
So drastically,entirely different games that its not even possible to compare.
One thing that can br compared is graphical & cinematic polish.
MGSV clearly had the upper hand there ,byt then again few games if any could compare to MGSV in this regard.

Did you find out what it was? I would have Googled it myself but I'm in the library at college...
