Nice. FFXV is second but honestly I’m anticipating XV more than P5.

Genei Ibun Roku #FE is at #30 with 54 votes

Shin Megami Tensei IV: Final is at #31 with 51 votes

I’d say Final is like my third or fourth most anticipated game this year along with Star Ocean 5.

SashaBraus

My Top 5 would be.

1. Persona 5

2. Star Ocean

3. NieR Automata

4. Final Fantasy XV

5. Dark souls III

I can not be entirely sure if everything is will be released in the West by 2016 and of course some are out already, but of course if Zero Escape 3 is coming out this year that skyrockets up my top 10 list, apparently we get more info on that in March.

Did you play ZE2?

SashaBraus

Did you play ZE2?

No, but I plan to before 3 gets here, if not, since it’s a visual novel, I may just do a watch through on Youtube.

RionAgrias

I’ll probably get ZE3, but my brain goes kaput on puzzles for some reason. I might get SO5, but we’ll see. Other than that, maybe FFXV when it goes on sale? I didn’t mention P5 because… duh.

Shiiiro

Alright, its a lot harder than 999 for sure.

RionAgrias

Alright, its a lot harder than 999 for sure.

999 was the easiest due to graphical limitations on the puzzles. Hehe….

Shiiiro

999 was the easiest due to graphical limitations on the puzzles. Hehe….

That’s true.

I still preferred 999’s story and characters overall. Hopefully ZE3 concludes the story well.

RionAgrias

Indeed… Hopefully I won’t get confused like in the second one.

Shiiiro

It was a lot to take in and with all the jumping back and forth between the timelines it did get confusing.

SashaBraus

I would hope so, most of 999 and it’s puzzles were easy for me, it was figuring out the damn combonations for endings that made pissed me off and me use a walk through…so…many coffin endings.

Shiiiro

Yeah that was annoying. In VLR you can check which direction you’re going via the timeline thing they provide you in the game.

RionAgrias

I kept getting bad endings, myself.

SashaBraus

I kept getting bad endings, myself.

I kept getting coffin, cause I thought I was doing certain things wrong, so I’d make tiny adjustments…nope, got a few other endings, tried again, still coffin, then said screw it, went to go look up endings, turned out I had to get a whole different ending out of the ones I got , then I could finally get past coffin. >.> I woulda been there forever tryna figure that out.

Yeah that was annoying. In VLR you can check which direction you’re going via the timeline thing they provide you in the game.

Well that’s nice to know, but isn’t there like 20+ in VLR?

Shiiiro

Well that’s nice to know, but isn’t there like 20+ in VLR?

Yeah just imagine if they didn’t allow you to check or jump to events you’ve seen already…

SashaBraus

Guide on my 2nd play through that’d be for sure. hah

RionAgrias

Guide on my 2nd play through that’d be for sure. hah

I practically needed a guide for VLR for the puzzles in the blank room.

SashaBraus

I practically needed a guide for VLR for the puzzles in the blank room.

Practically, so you did it without eventually…or literally, as in you eventually needed it, because you never figured it out

Shiiiro

Blank room was the white room right? Shit was damn annoying. I had to use a guide too.

RionAgrias

How about switching to easy mode? *wink*

SashaBraus

Sounds like ZE3 is gonna be a brain tease, yo

SashaBraus

Pssh… well… not like I’d ever do that to a Persona game.

It was a joke, just couldn’t pass up an opportunity to pass up that perfect set up.
[SIZE=1]or would you?[/SIZE]
[SIZE=4]I actually have I beat 3FES, P3P and P4G on every [/SIZE]Difficulty[SIZE=4] only beat PQ once though….have yet to beat it on the P3 side yet, but this is getting off topic of the poll. Since it’s Square+ [/SIZE]Platinum[SIZE=4] I have faith NieR will be a good game, I hope it will be.[/SIZE]

SashaBraus

I don’t know much about NieR except it’s Square-ish.

The 1st game was alright , if you have a 360 or PS3 you could pick it up or just watch Youtube videos of it and if you have not yet seen the trailer for the 2nd one.

I’ve seen the trailer, but you know the apprehensions about delving into new series. It’s harder now than ever.
