Video Game General 7.0: Day Juan Ys: MoC June 9th & Wonderful 101 June 30th!

Seriously. I don’t know how a company puts out so many good fighting games but manages to make their lobby system worse EVERY TIME.

The Blazblue/Persona Ultimax system is still the best one they’ve had so far. Walk into a giant arcade room with easily distinguishable characters, sit down at an arcade booth, play.

I don’t understand their refusal to just implement an invite function. It’s beyond asinine. It almost seems petty at this point.

But at the same time, these are also the same dudes who up until Strive, refused to implement rollback netcode despite fans constantly asking for it game after game. ArcSys handles matchmaking functionality like Nintendo handles internet functionality.

Almost certain that’s what they are. You know who shows up at Shinra in the last section and pretty much kills Barrett but it wasn’t his time to die so the whispers save him. Then the whispers surround Shinra I’m assuming to prevent Rufus and co from pursuing Cloud

My FFVII/FFVIII cartridge finally arrived for Switch. It only took a month. I was gonna force myself through FFVII before the Remake but eff that. I’d rather grind in the Remake since I actually like that game. Only snagged it for the shits and giggles anyway. One cartridge, the size of my thumb above the knuckle, has six CDs worth of video games. Gotta love technology.

I do too, but shit I already double dipped into this game.
I got it on my Switch, the Neo Geo MVS cart, and I got the rom on my MiSTer.
Do I really need this on my Steam List? But I would be supporting more Psikyo stuff being released.

No, No Lube for Lube is Love.
Bite the pillow for The Ninjas are going in dry.

That’s cute, they think they’ll actually be able to reopen and not go out of business.

Set to release on World Oceans day…

Was at Wal Mart getting some essentials, swung by electronics an both of these where on sale so I scooped em up.

That reverse cover for FFXII lawd. I borrowed this on PS4 from a friend but wanted my own copy and this game portable seemed too good to be true. For once it’s not.

Hat in Time looks adorable, I hear good things, and have been craving a platformer for a while now.

I bought a BIG BOI swArd in Path of Exile from a Korean player. I asked him about Tekken and his response was :rofl:

Captain Ron AKA Kurt Russell pic that gives me joy beyond words. The smirk+hair is :rofl:

Do you guys have tips for mitigating damage in FF7? I understand you should usually block over roll, but I still feel like my party is taking tons of damage all the time. Seems like I’m having to use Curaga/Hi Potions way more often than neccesary.

I’m at the tail end of chapter 8, I’m assuming.

Block, really. Use Parry Materia so you can cancel attacks into blocking frames. Use Barrier when you get it. Until you have that stuff be less greedy with attacking since you can’t cancel attacks into iframes or guarding. Dodging attacks that can be dodged. Do side content so you can unlock materia like Parry and get extra skill points and such

There isn’t really a special answer honestly. It’s mostly just learning the fights and the systems and not being greedy since you can’t cancel to iframes.
