I hadn't seen any official word about length and plenty of "but it's just Midgar, 3 hours tops". I knew it was gonna be longer but no real idea.

It's definitely not 3 hours but I would also be surprised by 50 hours at least. I think it'll be a Crisis Core sized game (around 20 hours) if you don't grind sidequests.

Seen plenty of complaints about games being too long or too short recently.

Shopto changed my order from pre order to back order, sounds like they didn't get enough stock cause of COVID or something

Mine too, base.com, simplygames all sold out of day one stock also

They must have got their allocations and not enough

But did just get an email asking to make sure my details are correct and they will be shipping as soon as possible

Mr.Fantastic

Is there any way of going digital thats cheaper than the 70 quid on the Playstation store?

Had this pre-ordered with Smyths for collection for months but given everything that's happening that was cancelled. Subsequently pre-ordered again for delivery but I don't think that's going to be happening since they've closed up operations for the coming weeks (unless they ship from the UK?). Tweeted their customer service account since it's still being manned but haven't got a response from them. Coming to think that I'm just not meant to get this game on launch day!

Seeing in other threads that gamestop is delivering again. Let us know if you ordered FF there and if they are shipping early.

Got an email stating they're shipping from Friday in date order and all orders should be filled by release.

Is there any chance of the digital release date being brought forward of a lot of people are getting the physical copy early?

Doubtful. It might set a precedent.

You should have got a mail with the link to buy the deluxe edition today. Just check your spam if not as I got mail to order it.

Finally looked up a video showing classic mode and it looked.....****e. It's set to Easy and then it's like a mobile game where your guy just starts attacking enemies automatically and you issue commands every now and again, does not look fun.

I played the demo on normal and thought some enemies were a bit spongey but seeing easy, enemies were dying in 2 to 3 hits. I enjoy the new combat, real time attacking, dodging, healing, magic and battle tactics.

Anyone actually interested in the classic mode and going to play on that?

The idea of classic mode sounded interesting to me when they first revealed it, then i played it in the demo. You watch as your characters auto attack then you input commands when their ATB gauge fills up. Its really bad and i won't touch it. Normal mode is great. Lots of fun and interactivity especially with boss fights

Cheers, I did get it... about 15 minutes after Game UK processed my payment for the order I made last week. Shopto are posting my standard edition copy tomorrow too anyway. hopefully have one by next week.

Ya I played classic and went the whole way through going that was too easy. Missed the bit where it said it was easy mode. Went through then in Normal much better with more to do and got the Limit Breaks and used potions!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
