I've been guilty of mentioning uncalled for negativity from other sites and board on this forum but for these next few days before the game comes out how about we don't post the toxic shit or mention any of that stuff coming from other places other than here?
I know it can be frustrating sometimes but just ignore it. Avoid the site altogether for now.
I agree with this message.
I am staying away from most FF XV related stuff, other than discussions and topics that are spoiler free. I already know too much about the game at this point. Even if I tried my best to stay away from anything that's story related. I want to get into the game as blind as is possible for someone who followed the production for all these 10 years (-___-).
There's always going to be negativity towards games we like. But I don't want the negativity some people have towards the game influence my judgment. I've played all the demos released so far, including Judgment Disc, and so far, I am confident in the game's ability to deliver. If it ends up good or not, will be based on my analysis alone.
In the end, not everyone looks for the same things in a FF game. The story and gameplay could resonate well for some, and fall flat for others. FF VIII is one of the good examples of that. Many people didn't like the Junction system and the melodramatic and convoluted story. I personally liked it a lot, and think FF XV will be met with the same kind of divisiveness.
