      Furthermore, when it lands on PC it will likely be an Epic exclusive. I’m not buying at that point either because I really disapprove of timed exclusivity. I would rather pirate at that point, TBH.

      This is where I’m at. I played remake on my steam deck and I won’t buy a console to play it our any other exclusives.

      I really appreciated that they started releasing games on PC too but waiting a couple years is annoying. I greatly enjoyed zero dawn, and am finally enjoying forbidden west but having to wait years was annoying (not enough to get a ps5 though, and if they choose to never release it on PC I would just never play it ever).

      Right now I’m also waiting for Ragnarok since God of war was great. But again I’m not buying a ps5 so I’ll be waiting until it comes to PC if it does at all.

    Well, get your sales numbers up by releasing it somewhere besides PS5. Gone are the days of holding a game or two hostage to create your walled garden for your shitty console.

    I just wanted a remake of the original game. Instead they split it into multiple games as a cash grab. I stopped caring after the first one.

    Maybe if they sold it as one game, instead of selling it in parts and charging $70 for each…

    I played the first one and while some of the filler was fun, I’d rather have had one single game than this piecemeal release.

    Hopefully they do a big all-in-one release down the road where you can play the full story seamlessly. I’ll pick it up then.

    So I will be playing an incomplete (and probably bloated) game on a console I may not have, a sequel to a first part I may have not liked (aren’t you glad multiverses exists in fiction?)

    It might be that due to so many games getting released, many confuse it for a rerelease or extra content rather than a full game.

      It’d be great if we could come back to reasonable naming conventions. Why is “Final Fantasy 7 Remake: Part 2” so unappealing? What even IS an intergrade? I should not have to research or be a… Biologist, apparently, to know what order I need to play your bloody game in.

      Edit: fuckin hell, intergrade isn’t even the 2nd game. I give up.
