Comments: Final Fantasy Resonance Hands-On: The HD-2D Turn-Based Return Fans Have Waited 17 Years For

brave exvius being reimagined as a full hd-2d game is not what anyone predicted, but it might be exactly what the series needed. the deliberate retention of random encounters is fascinating - it's friction by design, a statement that this is a traditional jrpg first. does that nostalgia hold up over a 40 hour campaign, or does the charm wear off?

random encounters, unapologetically. square knows exactly what it's doing and i'm honestly here for it. the only thing more controversial would be bringing back random battle music that slaps.

i grew up on turn-based final fantasy so this feels like a gift. brave exvius getting a proper hd-2d reimagining instead of a mobile port is a lovely surprise. hoping the story is worthy of the art style.
