I was actually spoiled in this very thread on review day. Mods deleted the comment but not before the entire ending of the game was spoiled for me

Did the mods thread ban them?

I agree, so as long it's not the new implemented content that's being spoiled.

Imagine what. I just watched all 8 movies before game released this year.... AND I DIDN'T KNEW THAT !!!!!!!!!!
Imagine never being spoiled something.
Imo it' fine for people to talk about deep spoilers and all but not throwing them out everywhere to the point you can't avoid spoilers when you are not looking for them

I'm not sure, I didn't catch their name. I just happened to pop on and read the most recent comment and then noticed it was gone a couple minutes later. Just sucks but thankful mods did their part. I just so happened to be on here at the wrong time during that 2 minute window.

Figured I needed a quick refresher on everything.
Really well done. I forgot how insane (and confusing) the original story gets and it just makes me more excited for whatever batshit changes they made.

Nah. I was about to order one when it was under the first wave shortage. But none of the retailers in Greece were selling for anything less than 1,200 euro.
After that, I said I'll wait.
Then I began telling myself that the second I buy it, next week Demon's Souls will be announced for Steam.
If I buy a PS5, it'll be for the vanillaware games now - FF7 and Demon's Souls will come to Steam, eventually.

You're not kidding, they're annoying as shite. But about Square, you've gotta love that they've succumb to the western knife.

ROFL, I commented on this video, this guy is a rage bait clown who seems to have a vendetta against Square, particularly with Tifa.

Did Square not change anything then?

They added a black undershirt to her leather vest in the Nibelheim flashback. The one that happened 5 years before the start of the title. It's also only changed from Remake, it was the design going forward from Rebirth. It's a change for continuity consistency.
If you want to bitch about the decision at a Trilogy level to decide to add the black shirt when they initially hadn't, but I want to emphasize the point that in the offending "edited," game, you see Tifa in this outfit in exactly one scene, a flashback, with Cloud's schizo filter overlaid in a dark mako reactor.
If you're hung up about this, it's fucking weird. But also, if you're hung up about this, watch Bleach or something. Many animes. You'll find kawaii no desu waifus at the tender age of 16-17 eyefucking the camera for fanservice.
Tl;dr: Yeah, they changed everything. That's why it's not a PS1 game.
Edit: That's the Royal You I was using, not pushing shit onto you,

After listening to some video reviews (audio only), I'm still setting expectations even though I'm excited. I know many reviewers gave this game a flawless score, but things like performance mode / fidelity issues and the ending of the game being a mess imo keeps it from achieving masterpiece status. At the end of the day my thoughts will be the definitive review.
Now if only Best Buy can update their status to shipped!

I feel like a lot of the same caveats plagued most Remake reviews, too.

The Remake could change things. There are rumors/guesses a particular character's death may be switched with someone else's.
So, yeah - things can get spoiled in the remake by those who play early.

If anyone is truly bothered by this, wouldn't the original unpatched game still be on the disc?They added a black undershirt to her leather vest in the Nibelheim flashback. The one that happened 5 years before the start of the title. It's also only changed from Remake, it was the design going forward from Rebirth. It's a change for continuity consistency.

I've also been reading over on Steam that a mod already exists to mod it back
Gaming these days is so utterly crazy.

It's amazing how stupid people are to default to their "Muh Censorship!" mode without contemplating the context or the potential consequences of whining about no longer being able to see a 14 year old girl's cleavage.

I think the whole things bat shit crazy.
This whole drama seems like just another thing in gaming to drum up drama, again.

Agreed. This is why metacritic/review outlets especially are only to be taken with a few grains of salt.

I dont blame you. Definitely one of those games where you wanna be in that release zeitgeist.
FOMO is a motherfucker

Why? Buy what you like and don’t buy why you don’t like.
i don’t really get that, I remember people going crazy over BG3 but never got hyped for it because I wasn’t just in to it……so called ”FOMO” had zero effect on me.

Eh.... that's kinda more recent....I already know about that but I doubt that everyone does as they do Star Wars Vader thing, I'd count your post as a spoiler honestly.
As for Aerith,I knew about it before I played the game but I still had an emotional reaction to it when it happened but I imagine it was absolutely devastating for people who played it in 97'.

We discussed this many times, 10/10 score is not about game being “flawless“ or not, it about how much reviewer enjoy the game….reviews all about subjective opinions, the things about the game that might bother you but not bother the reviewer and vice versa.
For me graphic imperfection never bothered me in any game unless its broken like CP2077. Elden Ring doesn’t have “perfect” tech but for me still 10/10 game because how much I enjoyed that game regardless of graphical imperfections.

Thats because BG3 isnt your type of game. You like your waifus and anime out the ass. BG has none of that.
I tried it too and it wasnt for me. I need my Vanillaware chicks, big eyes and juicy tatas.

That’s my point if the game doesn’t excite you then why would you be effected by ”FOMO”?
Also Elden Ring and Armored Core VI has none of either but I still LOVED those games.

Some consoomers just feel the need to have the "new popular thing" just to be part of that kind of release excitement. I dunno, its weird. Ive got coworkers like that. There was a 50 year old dude in my office that went and bought Elden Ring on release day because we all were. And he didnt even own a fucking console
Elden Ring and AC 6. Ok two exceptions lol (also I was kidding around. I know your taste is all over the place....but you sure love your anime chicks)
I mean, who doesnt

Half Blood Prince came out in 05. Close to 20 years to read. It was a cultural phenomenon the likes of Halo 3. Identities were formed by what school of magic you dreamed of being in Hogwarts. If you didnt know by now you didnt care either way.
Its not like someone spoiled Dune. Now theres a book series somewhat obscure by mainstream that only recently gained traction.

I love my anime waifus but I'm waiting till it comes to Steam and is 20 to 30 bucks
Also mods
