That sounds really horrible. Damn. Development hell up in this mofo.
Really horrible? I mean, it's a bit worrying, but 'really horrible'?
That's one hell of a stentorian declaration, friend.
lol

I actually LOVE this... I usually get bored by open world before I can finish whatever game it is... but if this game switches to linear at some point, this is absolutely PERFECT.
My heart can't take this temptation against my media blackout policy.
So much silly hyperbole in here.
I believe other previews mentioned the shift in tone and pacing between the first and second half's of the game. All in all we will have to wait and see when the game comes out whether the shift is done well or not. I personally see nothing wrong with it if it is executed properly.
So much silly hyperbole in here.
And with that, I'm in doubt again. I don't like this type of stuff. Just yesterday after watching videos talking about big epic boss fights that may be in the game, the likes of FFXII end game hunts, I was nearly at "go ahead and preorder this." With this info, it feels like there's no point in those fights if I have do what the spoiler says. Reminds me of FF13 with it's taste of freedom then back to the normal (I haven't played it, but I have watched the transition and back).
Really horrible? I mean, it's a bit worrying, but 'really horrible'?
I just hope the ratio of 1st vs 2nd half is like 90:10 or something; but it's probably 50:50 huh
So much silly hyperbole in here.
Maybe I got that wrong but there was a dev interview not too long ago that mentions something along the lines as to what happens in the second half pacing and gameplay wise.Pretty sure this has been the only preview to get to the "Second half"
My thoughts exactly. Doesn't mean it'll be handled well (hopefully it is!) but at the very least it'll change things up a little toward the end. I doubt I'll see it much differently from your typical focused narrative climaxes; the last few hours of any game and not just RPG's are usually very straightforward and "linear." The Witcher 3? Huge open world game, but even that gets on a tight forward motion in the last few hours. Same for Blood and Wine.
It doesn't really reveal too much. It may give you an idea of the game's structure toward the end, but there's no plot spoilers.
This and The Last Guardian will be under far more scrutiny than most games due to their development histories.

If you choose to focus only on the negative, sure, but there's plenty of positive notes in there.Really, really bad

Full of hope, ambition and no shortage of things to see and do... Like a folly extended by successive architects, it's a peculiar artefact that can't escape it's past.

smh edge 😔
I'm ok with this. Some of my favorite RPGs, final fantasy VI and Xenogears had a very linear second half. Still a flaw, but I'll live with it.
The fact that you can travel back in time is sweet though.
Yep I feel the same. I'm still pretty invested in the series and want to see it succeed, even though my enjoyment of this game is looking like a sure thing now.I'm sure this game will be good and I'll like it, but it's going to be another Final Fantasy game that doesn't live up to its name. I get disappointed because I want a return to form for Final Fantasy.
Did people not expect massive problems for a game that took so long to make?

It says "late game." Doesn't sound 50/50.
It kind of sounds like the game starts to become more and more linear during the second half, but not entirely, and not until much later does it get really condensed.
I am about 500 times more concerned that the in-game economy never gives you enough money than I am about what is written there about the second half of the game.
So basically they metalgearsolidfoured it.

I'm starting to get a distinct MGS4 feeling from this game. All the one-off gameplay segments, the weird structure of the game and all those deviations from series standards, wrapped up in a hugely ambitious, hugely entertaining clusterfuck of a game.
So with that in mind, I'm expecting to love the shit out of it.
I hope so. I don't mind some kind of linearity really, as I think it's good to have more focused play towards the end. Just hoping it's not corridors after corridors linear haha
Thank you, you saved me from an aneurysm.It doesn't really reveal too much. It may give you an idea of the game's structure toward the end, but there's no plot spoilers.
