Square Enix

Anyone got/getting The DioField Chronicle? It's been getting pretty great reviews. Out of all these SE coming in September-December it's not quite at the top of my list, but I definitely intend to play it eventually.
I want to play it! I've been waiting to see if Square will put the collectors edition up for PC on their store, or will release the board game from it separately before I take the plunge though. I need to try out the demo in the meantime.
 
The DioField Chronicle looks pretty bland IMO. There's so little style to the visuals (which is important to me because video games are a visual medium) and it seems pretty repetitive; the voice acting is also a bit cringe. I think I will opt for Triangle Strategy instead when I'm in the mood for an SPRG.
 
In better news, as part of the game's ten year anniversary event, the Bravely Default producer pretty much indirectly confirmed a remaster is coming sooner or later

Over the past 10 years, our team has grown larger, and our capacity has increased. Looking at the opening movie of [Bravely Default:] Flying Fairy, I feel like announcing a remaster of [Bravely Default:] Flying Fairy would be the best possible thing and something fans would desire. But for now I’m unfortunately unable to announce anything like that. ‘For now,’ let’s just say.”

I'd buy a Bravely Default + Bravely Second Switch remaster in a heartbeat, I hope that's what they do rather than paying the second game dust.
 
Too bad about The First Soldier. It was actually fun when I played it and it had good reviews when it launched. It was definitely not in the league of other failed SE action games.

I would play a version for consoles, but right now I'm not in the target audience for a mobile battle royale.
 
Yeah I feel like they should’ve pushed a console version as it was quite an enjoyable game, but then I also haven’t played it in a couple of months.

The main issue I had with the game is that you were lucky to be facing off against one other player person/team in a match so it became quite repetitive.

Because they haven't made a console version is the reason why I haven't played it, not even sure if my phone could handle it. I get why they want mobile versions but its a shame they don't make a console version a few months or a year later. I hope they will at least do that with Ever Crisis but who knows.

I have genuinely have never even heard of The First Soldier.
Me neither, delighted with remakes and remasters but the VII spin-offs need to chill out. Begging/pleading/praying for them to focus on VI with the Octopath engine instead thanks!
