Despite ATLUS and SEGA saying the consoles don't support it, both the PS4 and PS5 version of Metaphor: ReFantazio have cross-save support.
Three months into 2025 is as good a time as any to celebrate the best games of 2024.
On March 15, 2025, a special program for the Famitsu Dengeki Game Awards 2024, sponsored by KADOKAWA Game Linkage, was broadcast. The Famitsu Dengeki Game Awards 2024 is Japan's largest user-voted game awards, where game fans vote to select the best game of 2024. The program selected the best works in 17 categories, including the grand prize "Game of the Year". The winner of the grand prize "Game of the Year" was Square Enix's "Final Fantasy VII Rebirth".
I have very mixed feelings about this game. It is not the GOTY i expected it to be for sure. It has too many mini games that break the rhythm..
No more than the original does really. A lot are completely optional too like the card game
costa del sol has a max of literally 3 mini games that u need to play. every other mini game is optional and doesnt need to be won for the rest of the game (except the choco racing one)
im sorry that your attention span is so fragile that u need action 24/7
Just ended chapter 13 & boy it has some emotional content. The game is very good & award deserving.
It was my GotY. Heck it’s one of the best games I’ve played in a while, period.
Sega published some interesting insight on how the company sees the success of its games including Metaphor: ReFantazio.
Look at sales from big western studios like EA and Ubisoft they are building their games for "modern audiences" who are not interested in actually paying for them. Then crying foul when sales inevitably don't meet expectations.
Sega builds games the way they want to look at rgg yeah we want to build a pirate Yakuza game. Sega board thumbs up.
I'm thrilled to see a Sega revival of late I think their leadership has the right attitude again
There have always been great Japanese games even if reviewers didn’t respond favorably to them. There was less investment in them for the west during the PS3 gen for whatever reasons but even then there was some great games.
Atlus is so godly, they make great things happen by accident
