(in the family group chat): that wont matter. without radical change all of this is meaningless in fifteen years. we have no idea how dire things are

(in the communist group chat): they should make a turn based final fantasy again with the two minute summon animations

I love when game devs champion older design styles that were vilified by aggressive standardization of "best design practices" in the 2000s.

It feels we spent the past decade rewriting burned books.

reading a Final Fantasy Resonance developer interview and pumping my fist like "YES YES YES" at this whole part

– Why did you decide to opt for random encounters instead of symbol (non-random) encounters?

Nakashima:

Symbol encounters allow players to engage in battle whenever they want. In that sense, symbol encounters are there to accommodate the players’ freedom of playstyle. On the other hand, they could also end up resulting in less battles that are truly memorable. This is my personal experience playing some of the recent RPGs that feature symbol encounters. I do think that random encounters can feel like a hassle at times, but they also allow you to make memories, like remembering the time you struggled against a really tough enemy or felt the joy of getting lucky with battle rewards. I think those are the kind of moments that actually stick with you. So, with that “memorability” being one of the big advantages of the random encounter system, we decided to adopt it for Final Fantasy Resonance.

To let players fully enjoy the best parts of random encounters, we’ve removed all of the elements that could cause frustration. For example, we’ve made sure that encounter rates for enemies are lower in dungeons that feature a lot of puzzles. This is because we concluded that having fewer mob battles while solving puzzles allows for a less frustrating gaming experience. Of course, while it is a random encounter system, the minimap will change colors to alert players of approaching enemies. When the minimap turns yellow, that means the mobs are getting closer, and when it becomes red, players will know that a battle is right around the corner.

Furuya:

The idea of conquering the dungeon itself is also tied to the fact that we chose to have random encounters. It’s more about taking down all the enemies you come across as you progress through the dungeon, rather than choosing whom to battle against. So, we steered the game in the direction of making battles fun, while sticking to the random encounter system. In our pursuit of the classic Final Fantasy experience, this is the decision we ultimately arrived at.

In Final Fantasy XIII, all of your HP recovers after each battle. In that sense, I believe FFXIII was designed so that each individual battle is entertaining. In contrast, Final Fantasy Resonance tasks you with the problem of how to conquer each dungeon. We came up with an experience where you will have to decide how to allocate MP and other resources, or make sure there are recovery points nearby as you progress through the dungeon. So, we thought that the best way to revive those fan aspects of RPGs for the modern era is to add random encounters.

To bring a smile to your face

A 2,000 year-old figurine of two ‘Dancing Dogs’ 🐾❤️

#Archaeology

This Princeton University Art Museum photo shows a blackware ceramic figurine of two stylised dogs which look as if they are dancing. They are standing upright on their hind legs, front legs raised, with paws resting against each other as if holding hands. The dog on the left has its face turned to front, with snout slightly raised and seeming to smile. The dog on the right, rests its raised snout against the cheek of its partner. The figures are rounded and smooth with short legs, pointed snouts, pointed ears, and short curved tails. They have oval-shaped incised eyes and their bodies and faces are decorated with incised lines, which according to the museum, represent folds of skin, indicating that these canines are Mexican hairless dogs.

Museum info:
“Comala, Late Formative Period, 200 BC –200 AD, Colima, West Mexico, Mexico, Mesoamerica, Dancing dogs. Blackware ceramic; 12.6 x 13.5 x 7.5 cm. Museum purchase (Object Number y1985-49)
