So far I resisted playing the second part of the demo, but it's tempting.
Not worth it imo. I played it and I'd just wait for the full game. Playing around with 3 eikons available is fun but i feel like i wanna experience organically getting those skills because it was a little overwhelming trying to learn them all at once and i ended up just spamming abilities and not getting much out of it mechanically

The second part of the demo surprised me. I don't know why they included it. Show all abilities?

That's what I figured out, the main part of the demo work because it's the begging of the game.

Amazon is saying they'll deliver mine on June 22 so It's just a little more than a week to wait.

I’m in the nothing will beat Zelda at the GoTY awards, but I do hope FFXVI is as awesome as the demo is and snatches a couple of awards.

Only in ff I can be equally attracted to 15yo anime girl and "stomp me mommy"
They both genuinely look like cgi though. Amazing graphics.

Well based on the demo, I would say not much of a chance. Game is still cool, but I would strongly, strongly, doubt it.

Like really strongly.

This game could be a legit 93 on metacritic and zelda will still win the Keighly award.

The industry just has its set biases and narratives alreaddy carved in stone, it either needs to be a big win for nintendo this year or xbox

I'm waiting for them to release the prelude/crystal theme remix. The driving beat and the tone/key shift from the classic theme has been stuck in my head all day
