LOGOS: The World of Final Fantasy XVI

SynopsisUncover the secrets of Valisthea and its inhabitants in this expansive compilation of Final Fantasy XVI lore!

　 Final Fantasy XVI introduced the world to Valisthea, a wondrous realm of sword and sorcery. Players learned details about its characters and kingdoms through the game, but what of its history, its geography, its people? For those who seek knowledge of the land blessed in the light of the Mothercrystals, look no further than LOGOS: The World of Final Fantasy XVI!

　 Written from the perspective of Valisthean scholar and hideaway loresman Harpocrates II Hyperboreos, this compendium will take readers on an exclusive deep dive into Final Fantasy XVI’s rich lore. It explores a wide variety of topics, from music to literature to religion—even cooking!—through numerous entries transcribed from journals, diaries, letters, and character conversations. LOGOS is more than just an encyclopedia: it’s a window into the realm of Valisthea and the lives of its inhabitants, as told by those inhabitants themselves.

　 What makes this book truly special are contributions from three of Final Fantasy XVI’s English-language voice cast. Ben Starr (Clive), Stewart Clarke (Dion), and Christopher York (Gav) all lend their talents as writers to bring their characters back to life within the pages of this tome.

　 Featuring hundreds of richly illustrated full-color pages, LOGOS: The World of Final Fantasy XVI is a must-have book for all fans of Final Fantasy XVI!

My thoughts were not too dissimilar. Definitely with you, fellow internet stranger, on the boring, but I found it to be a mixed bag of fun so never finished the game. Though it's been some time since I played, I may revisit to see if that has changed over the years.

    Is there a space on your shelf for one of these cubes?

    Honestly, no. Square Enix in recent years have introduced so much acrylic crap for fans and collectors, and it mostly looks like cheap tat. To me this is just another set of junk to add to the pile.

    It has been a long time since I've played SH1. I believe amount you save only affects the star ranking. Endings are dependant on tasks you do in the game. You should be alright if you're saving a lot.

    Christopher Dring: Astro Bot's UK sales (physical-only so far) aren't huge. Opening week is about a third lower than 2021's Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart, but I expect a longer sales tail for Astro... in c/games@sh.itjust.works

    You’re not wrong, I’d add some Crash Bandicoot inspired level designs as well as some Sackboy Big Adventures in there. It’s a wonderful game, hopefully they’ll bring it to PC for you to enjoy it (I’m assuming you’re gaming on PC).

    • The new Flappy Bird game has a hidden secret; crypto in c/games@sh.itjust.works
    [–] 7 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

    Court documents reveal that Gametech Holdings had pinched the trademark from Nguyen after the original developer missed refiling for it. The Flappy Bird Foundation, spearheaded by game designer Michael Roberts, then purchased it from Gametech.

    I didn’t know about the trademark take over. But, thats a great start to the reputation of this thing. Unfortunately most people won’t even realise what is going on here, so what are the chances some will mistake this as Nguyen’s doing?

    The whole plan and background for this game sounds abhorrent.

    Anecdotal but of all my IRL friends and colleagues, I’m the only person who has the game right now. Despite how much I tell them how good it is, and how much fun I’m having, a few don’t want to pay full price due to how short they’ve read the game is.
