Shout out to yall for this week’s episode. Heavily enjoyed. If you not on the Patreon you missing out. Killer Mike freestyle while I disagree with what he said it definitely woke up hip hop conversations in the media. And the moment was cool to see Mike rap with ti and his son and have good verses. I don’t see people arguing but people on both sides whether they agree or disagree having good spirited conversations and debates about Conservatism. Killer Mike is in his 50s he knows it’s better to talk it out rather than beef with someone he disagrees with. I hope someone on his team trys to link him with FD and others in that space. I’ve seen him give advice to young thug and gunna and that’s a wayyyyyyyy deeper issue than what he has with dr ball and FD. I don’t think he’s going to change his mind on conservatism though. Mike is a head strong individual. He recently started to get his flowers in the mainstream so I can understand a man that had to struggle and push thru to get to the heights he has is a dream come true but at the same time he can’t start looking down at others because they disagree with others. That’s corny. If you can sit with Candace Owen’s and kemp you can sit with a down with a Doctor and Former teacher that cares about the same things you do.

Should I upgrade to the Pro 2 or am I fine with what I have? I like my luma Pros. Only issues I have is the blurry corners. And the fact that the screen follow my head turns. Oh and it gets very hot on the right side after 30-1h hour.

I’ve enjoyed Remake and Rebirth multiple times. Currently on a Switch 2 play through of Rebirth on the Switch 2 (Great Port honestly). I believe that Square Enix learned a lot thoughout this 3 part experience but I have to ask. Do you think they will stick the landing after Revelation drops. I’m not speaking from the perspective of the person enjoying the game cause I do believe Revelations will be a better experience especially if they listen to the fair criticisms of remake and rebirth. I’m more so talking about the expectations they set from the beginning. I think it’s fair to say Rebirth did not sell as much as remake which is a shame because of how much better rebirth is from a gameplay perspective. But that has to worry the folks as Square because part 3 is right around the corner.

If I was a betting man I would chalk this up to people saying “you know what I’ll wait til they release everything and then I’ll play. I somewhat get that sentiment because I watch tv series after the show concludes. Having to wait years to finish a story suck and with it being a video game where you’re actually playing the story I can get that mindset.

What I hope doesn’t happen is people just didn’t like the remake experience and they don’t give this series a chance. I love OG but I also appreciate what Square has done with the remake somewhat. Obviously I’m not going to like everything. Chadley and Mai interrupting and talking over the battle music annoys me every single time and Square not adding a setting to turn off NPC voice so I can just hear my party, the enemies and the music sucks. Also square needs to go back to having the player press a button to have npcs talk. My favorite thing about Final Fantasy is the music first. I don’t need to hear npcs talking over the instrumentation. Or not being able to walk around as the other party members. Or them making queens blood which is a phenomenal side games apart of the story rather than a side game to get away from the story and collect a thon with the card (maybe implement a mechanic where you can trade cards for materials for the transmuter like triple triad did in ff8).
I’m fair with the criticism but I still do enjoy these games for what they are. Even in 10/10 games everything can’t be perfect.

But what do yall think? Do you think square will take a multi part release strategy when making more remakes? There has been heavy talks of Final Fantasy X getting a remake/prequel up next. And I’m half excited and half terrified of that news.
