Made it to gold saucer

The haunted hotel is some Disneyland type stuff. So well done.

Feel bad for anyone not gaming on OLED srs. These colors are insane

Play intermission first then go on Rebirth.

Will do.

[Coal Man]

Will do.

Def. The combat in intermission was quite different and fun. Short and sweet story, also you need to have a save file in intermission to get intermission's exclusive summon in Rebirth. So that's important.

Last thing to mention, after intermission if you want a tough combat challenge, revisit remake on hard mode chapter 17. At the beginning chadley meets you for a new combat sim challenge where you unlock some difficult battles along with the "real" boss battle in Intermission.

[Deathstroke]

Hmmm I never did the intermittent. I ignored it effectively skipping it.

Nice. I didnt finish last night (thought i was going to but it drug out a little). For the intermission, since i have a PS5 it should just be there right?

Ammm. Chit son when did you buy remake? The DLC came out after, it's a paid DLC. In the main menu you gotta press R2 I think to switch to intermission.

There was a special deal to get it for free if you pre-ordered Rebirth but that's gone now.

Word. Was just curious. I thought if you bought the PS5 version of remake you auto got it now. But will find out. I just got it a couple weeks ago. May need to look at rebirth purchase to see if it comes with it.

It doesn't. Only if you pre-ordered Rebirth there was an option for a twin pack containing both games (plus DLC) for just the price of Rebirth. After launch the price of the twin pack went up. I didn't have intermission before and I used that opportunity to finally get it.

If you wanna play the DLC I think the only option is to buy it separately. Also it's not really a requirement btw. It's a fun short story that takes place in Tifa's area when Cloud was separated with Aerith. You can always play Intermission later when it's on sale but the biggest regret would not be getting the Intermission summon for Rebirth because it's thunder based which is my most used element. And it's a pretty fuking badass summon too.

Word. Ill just get it lol. More time to "waste" before getting into rebirth.

[twovalvekid]

Saweeeet. What i thought was right. Intermission came with my purchase of Remake on PS5.

Here. We. Go.

Dassitmane. Enjoy the titties

[ohiostate124]

Just lol if you didn’t

Spoiler!

make out with Tifa

at the gold saucer

[Coal Man]

Oh right so I have some gr8 news. I'm playing Control right now but last night I hooked up my PS5 to a monitor, I think it's just 1080p or some chit and Rebirth didn't look horrible in performance mode there. Sad I won't get to see this beautiful game on an OLED TV anytime soon but at least the chitty image quality isn't exposed on a small screen.

Will be playing Rebirth after Control.

[twovalvekid]

Who's? Flat chested AF Yuffie (who'd i'd still smash) or the one Avalanche chick who from the get go is stacked? lolz.

I got immediately sidetracked by the Fort Condor minigame. Once i read there is AP up materia at the end of it, im in. I *hated* the minigame in the original, but im kinda digging this. Got all the way to the match with Wedge and it was bed time. Plus i lost like 3 times to him so i wanted to throw the controller.

@titties, keep playing.

Yeah I never beat wedge Lmfao. Tried like 10x then quit. I thought I'd get a chance to play him later on but keep in mind there's a mission once u accept ull not be able to go back to the slums after. Pissed me off cuz it was the last thing I had to do.

Ok so it wasnt just me. ha.

It was late enough i didnt want to just go to youtube.

Surprised so many are going for Intermission before Rebirth. Its a good DLC but its definitely not necessary. I played it when it came out cause there was nothing else.

Part of me just thinks...the more time i take on remake/intermission...the less ill be waiting for the final installment.

However...i know that will be years lol.

So tell me genius, if you know you're gonna play Intermission, when is the best time to play it?

My point is you dont have to play it. If you're determined to do so, ok but ive not usually seen people opt for DLC that isnt really necessary when the full sequel is already out.

I played it for an hour and kind of let it fall into the backlog

What are these titties I'm reading about? I wanna see them chits.

DLC has nothing to do with the sequel other than adding in a special summon... Which is a very important summon imo. Other than that it takes place during the events of the original game and adds content to the lore of the events taking place at the time. It also doesn't diminish your playthrough of Rebirth in any way, Rebirth is still readily available to you after beating Intermission.

[swolefnatic]

Anyone go through hard mode yet? Is it even worth it? Don’t feel like maxing out all my material just to get through brutal challenges. Sounds like a chore. Might play my backlog of God of War 2023 or FFXVI

....I know this, Im just saying you can skip it and it wont matter much, its not like you'll be lost when rebirth starts or anything.

Nobody said it was essential for Rebirth, but it's still part of the overall story and if you love the series enough you'd want to play all the content it has to offer. Intermission takes place before Rebirth so that's the natural order to play it in.

....I understand this. I was just saying that Im surprised cause I dont usually see optional DLC be that popular. Usually that only happens when people think they'll miss something important.

I also never suggested anyone play Intermission after rebirth, dont know why it seems like you're implying I am.
