@HazeRedux @corpsegrlash "Harlan Ellison's I have no games and I must larp" lol I'm dead

"you need to play the game to be a fan" is classist propaganda

@aitaikimochi So... has anyone asked him yet about under the highwind??

I'm listening to more of Hamaguchi's Q&A for FF7 Revelation Day 2 in Shanghai, and at one point he's like "is it just me, or are there bolder questions today?" LMAO 😅 Someone asked him "What would Sephiroth think if he saw Cloud's crossdressing?" Hamaguchi says that's a difficult question lol. However, given that Sephiroth is present throughout the entire Remake series, he thinks sure, perhaps he did indeed see Cloud's crossdressing. However, he asks the audience what Cloud would think knowing Sephiroth could see him, and the crowd says he probably felt embarrassed. Hamaguchi himself thinks Cloud would feel embarassed regardless if it's Sephiroth watching or anyone else lol.

@yoracrab @Varrosguy What? It's not nostalgia, it's really, really good. Having more freedom in movement in recent games doesn't negate the older ones. RE5's gameplay was perfectly designed around its control system. It wasn't a limitation (Quake and UT existed a decade before) it was a design choice

@Varrosguy funny what nostalgia does because to me RE5 is the most fun in the series controls wise, it just clicks for me

i love how in RE5 your crosshair turns red when you aim at the umbrella it’s because umbrella is the enemy haha get it

@nierholic "FIFA, Fortnite, GTA Online player stumbles upon a real game for the first time" (Being a DOA5 player completely redeems you of those crimes though)

person playing peak for the first time

@TheeMissGlaze So newer DLC characters won't be added to World Tour mode with their own missions and such? And we don't to have give them gifts to obtain their Outfit 2? That's what he means by that?

Nakayama-san confirmed there will be no further updates to World Tour mode, but would like to do more with the story: “There won’t be any further updates to World Tour, but I’d like to keep the content maintained and perhaps convey some other narrative elements." 🧵

@FireShadow64 @GamesCage_ @DeputyARUUU That scream deserves a Maximilian award

"That's awesome, could you imagine Kingdom Hearts 4 showin up ahaha..." @GamesCage_ @DeputyARUUU

@aitaikimochi @maximilian_ this is the exact way you're always talking about. One unified, huge and impactful ending that's the creators vision, while player choices are also reflected in some way through subplots to respect their agency and make the playthrough their own.

FF7 Revelation Director Hamaguchi talks more about the game’s branching storylines in a new Famitsu interview. He says that rather than having multiple endings, they want to tell a story that says “this is the right path of the story" with one ending. However, they have incorporated user choices in the side elements of the game. Based on the user’s choice, the storytelling, gameplay, even the characters themselves and how they are portrayed, may drastically change. Famitsu notes it’s kind of like how in the previous games you need to choose between Aerith or Tifa, to which Hamaguchi says that is correct. At key points in the game, the user is given choices, and those elements are incorporated throughout the game that will change the storytelling and gaming experience.

@geoffkeighley Geoff, I'm not exaggerating when I say this, this was the best show in the history of SGF, and maybe even top 3 in the history of video game showcases. Each and every announcement could carry an entire showcase on their own. Kudos to you and your team.

Thank you for watching #SummerGameFest in record numbers yesterday! And thank you for all the nice posts and feedback. These shows wouldn’t be possible without our amazing team and all the incredible game developers who trust us to share their news with you!

@GenePark The story trailer also included the likeness of "Bunta Sugawara", super famous yakuza film actor from the 70s who's been dead for a while, Capcom is using Toshiro Mifune's face as the main protagonist of the new Onimusha, but we're suddenly not ok with Pac?

everyone keeps saying "his family is OK with it!" lol

@NotRealJC He said in his Wired auto complete interview that's his natural hair. As someone who does bleaches their hair, let me tell you that the roots start showing before the day is over, and to look how Gunn does, you've got to like bleach the roots every few days.

This what James Gunn do every month

@GenePark Baggy pants and skater shirts are very much in these days though, you should go back. (and style a PSP on the pants too while you're there)

ty it all comes from women styling me. my girlfriends always dressed me, and anytime i go shopping i ask a woman to come with. before that it was all baggy pants and skater shirts

@FranDarkstar SGF is tomorrow dude, and they want to do a complete multiplatform announcement there, as Sony doesn't allow anything other than PlayStation logos on the trailers. Hamaguchi just said that they're eying a simultaneous multiplatform release for Part 3 and they want to signal that

this is relevant again

@the_winkler @geoffkeighley I'm actually with the Keyleighs here dude, as the IMAX aspect is the best thing about The Odyssey right now. The film itself is not looking good one bit. We're about to have another Dunkirk here; technically good film made to be experienced in theaters and be forgotten.

@BabalonM15 @geoffkeighley put some respect on the Keighleys m8

The Odyssey popcorn bucket is an IMAX Keighley camera.

@tifabro You're on PC. The PS5 version has been updated to look like yours.

I've seen people say they made Tifa's eyes more vibrant in the latest Rebirth update so here's a few shots for comparison. v1.0.0.4 (left) vs v1.0.0.5 (right), I see no change and the texture is the same

@Genki_JPN No one on this site is gonna be ready for the discourse if the game is faithful to the original. A new low for Twitter will be born.

@GenePark Oh, I can see the drawing of Kojima and NWR back there, and with Hunter being the face of Prada, it's very obviously the new Prada thing they're doing. Gene, please, please tell them we didn't like that AI thing one bit. It disrespected both Kojima and Nicolas' works.

with Hunter Schafer. story coming soon

@ZhugeEX Even though that's obviously pretty lazy, I'd call that a good "Original Mode" toggle for nostalgia's sake.

I was wondering what they meant about having an option for retro costumes for the characters in Dynasty Warriors 3 Remastered, when the costumes are already the retro ones (but in HD). Turns out it's literally just the PS2 models from 2001.

@Genki_JPN Are you telling me if I change the outfits after doing hard mode, the outfit changes are also reflected in the cutscenes?? My 200 hours playtime just doubled (or even tripled because I'm gonna photo mode that thing forever)

The lighting improvements in FF7 Rebirth on PS5 are very impressive! 🔥

@HIDEO_KOJIMA_EN wait, that's Sophia Lillis?? she's absolutely unrecognizable with that hair!

With Wyatt Oleff, Maya Hawke, Sophia Lillis, and Hunter Schafer.
