Hope it lives up to your expectations and you love it.
Always sucks to not be with happy for a game you were excited about.

@phreak - that I understand. Rabid defenders are rarely better than those that hate on a game. If you like a game or series, it makes sense you want to discuss what it could have done better or where it might go in the future.

Think people have become to comfortable with giving simplistic aggressive responses, attaching a strong emotion to it as justification, then calling it a day.

I will never deny that the FF7 remake games have good graphics, runs well and a great combat system.
Those parts are really well done. It's other things I don't like

As I said, I hope everyone excited for it enjoys it.
Won't deny you that ever. Hope you love it.
I'm just tired of being insulted for not liking changes I feel are disrespectful to the original. Changes I won't talk about here due to spoilers.

@phreak @IcariX - Everyone is entitled to their opinions but personally I am excited for Revelations. I never played the OG FFVII until 2006ish.

Loved it, but the remakes are even better. The combat, graphics and party interactions are great.

Played Remake and while it does have its slow parts i.e walking simulator. It's still a great game. Played Rebirth last month only and it was even better, much more exploration, and yes while there is a ton of side content - most of it is optional.

It was a joy to see Zack again and play as him. and I think in the remakes Aerith's characterisation is miles better than Tifa.

I am hyped for Revelations and cant wait for more.

I am not a purist so do not care much with the story changes, by the end of the trilogy I doubt there will be any crazy differences to the actual ending of FFVII.

Resonance will be my GOTY though, I can see it already.

Elitism is fine except when people lose sense of the context in which games (or any other media) are made.

We're shifting into a bipolar market - maybe exacerbated by social media - where things are near perfect and therefore worth money/time, or people fixate on flaws without considering things like the developers cultural setting, size, budget, development time, and publisher influence.

Increasingly problematic when a few flaws lead to small teams (and sometimes bigger ones) collectively trashed for one or two elements with no regard given for everything else the games/series/movie does well.

Does not bode well as that ultimately means more safe bets and more homogenisation (especially in the console market where creative indie titles don't sell nearly as many copies as on PC).

@Phreak

I can't wait for Resonance. But the more I hear Square Enix talk about Revelations, the less I'm interested in playing it.

I've been called an elitist as well. But the whole Remake trilogy so far feels like poorly written fanfiction. I hope Square Enix stays far far far away from Final Fantasy VIII

If you're excited for FF7 revalations. I hope you love it.
But currently I'm not interested...

Excited for FF Resonance!
And I HATE that I have zero excitement for FF7 Revalations
Being called an "elitist" because I don't like the changes from the original isn't fair. I LOVE FF, it's my fav game series, but am I not allowed to voice my displeasure things in about it I don't like?

SoulCalibur VI Gameplay Reveal

by Paul Delargy on 11 December, 2017

     

     

We've got our first look at SoulCaliber VI when it was announced at the Video Game Awards, and now at the PlayStation Experience 2017 we get to see the gameplay trailer.

Sadly outside of the reveal for a new SoulCalibur the trailer isn’t doing much for me, the stage they showed off in the gameplay trailer looked quite uninspired and the characters they chose, Mitsurugi and Sophitia are kind of boring. It would have been great to see this on a different stage and maybe showing us that new twinblade wielding character we got a glimpse of in the reveal trailer. We also see that Super moves are going to make a return as well as armor breaks.

It has been revealed that SoulCalibur VI will revisit the events of the original SoulCalibur to uncover hidden truths with a diverse lineup of new and returning characters, which is why both these character look so young in the trailer compared to previous titles.

It still very much looks like SoulCalibur and I am excited to see what new mechanics the game will have and to see which characters make the cut. The SoulCalibur games have always had a healthy selection of characters as well as guest characters, here is hoping the same is true for SoulCalibur VI. Personally I am hoping that Natsu returns as she was one of my favorite new characters from SoulCalibur V, as for guest characters I am holding thumbs that 2B from Nier Automata makes an appearance.

Let us know what you think of SoulCalibur VI and if there are any characters you hope make the cut:
