    Watched this opening night, got a bunch of stuff to say about it that I probably should have written right away because now I can't remember a lot of it. I'll probably say more about it later on once I mull over it again. I'm glad they brought back Stephen Lang in a new, deadlier form. That...

    Final Fantasy VII Remake

    Don't think anyone posted this. I'm really looking forward to getting some Before Crisis content in this remake. FF7's prequel that not only did we not get, but not many seem to know exists, because it was trapped being a Japan-only phone game in the time of flip phones.

    FF6's final dungeon has you using 12 party members and yeah this can be a problem for people who only used the same 4 for the most part. Cause you want at least 6 strong characters by that point. If you have all 14 characters, you end up having to leave two of them behind. What two did other...

    Death Stranding

    Played the first hour or two. Daaaaamn. This game is awesome. It's very Hideo Kojima. So much weird-assedness, horrifying bosses, a generally esoteric and ethereal story that doesn't quite fit in our world. I had trouble turning it off. Stunning. Good for depressed people. I can't wait to see...

    Well, given that their definition of "white supremacy" is constantly shifting around, next week it might just mean "white people" again. What is Valve doing to fight white people? Hopefully Valve tells Maggie "read our TOS" and "fuck off"

    Wait, @Seananigans is the guy who kept saying I had more game time than him and played all the time or something! But seriously, if I can get one of these Playstation reports, I bet it'll come out to like 2 hours a day averaged out which is about what I predicted I do. Elden Ring might have...

    Yeah, it amazes me to this day that WoB and WoR are like two totally different games and yet both come off as fully epic stories. But I'd have liked to see more with Kefka in WoR as well. He wins in WoB, then just sods off until the final battle. Pretty incredible game altogether. And yeah, on...

    She is getting the money she thinks she deserves. It's a LOT Not sure what's going on with her and Kairi. I think she's gonna be in AEW starting in January, and she's going to make bank (hyuck) between that contract and her overinflated NJPW contract. The AEW Women's Title scene is pretty...

    Death Stranding

    Been there, done that. So basically, don't play it with online features? Not having to spend as much time building infrastructure sounds good, but at the same time "conquering the wild" sounds even better. Good to hear Kojima is still good at boss fights. The boss fights might be my favorite...

    Death Stranding

    Thinking about playing this next / over the holidays because I'm kind of between games and have a lot of free time. I need something to keep me distracted/occupied so I don't think about recent real-life tragedies. I also don't want to ruin any particularly amazing games for myself by playing...

    Final Fantasy VII Remake

    Yes, but it's the same on a TV. And this particular game is only 720 on both. The issue isn't the portable Switch screen (which is fine, especially the OLED one), it's the docked TV console performance. I don't know why people fuss about the FFX laughing scene so much. In-context it was...

    I heard good things about GI and I think it has a couple of actually good-looking characters, like an archer chick or something. But yeah, looking at it now it looks like it's full of pedo-bait. Fuckin' hell.

    This is why New Japan is great. I wish they weren't so attached to January 4 because I too would like to see this on a Saturday. What an awesome promotion. You're selling AEW a bit short, the shows lately have been fine* and Jeff Jarrett is just like, one guy. * - Fine, though missing their...

    Are you the same Warr I played with in EQ? Can't remember which server, either Phinny or Vaniki probably. I checked that site out, no search button and I can't find her thread, not gonna rifle through all the simping looking for her image leaks because it sounds like it wasn't even that big of...

    Okay, I never played Genshin Impact, so I had to look up a few of those characters. They look like fucking children. Mona is the most-searched GI character in pr0n and she looks like a 10 year old. The fuck. Time for me to get off the internet for today.

    I didn't even know you could do that. Forgot Playstation had a web browser. Wow, it really is impossible to keep kids away from the pr0n isn't it? Even if they can't get it on the computer, they have phones and even Playstation. Watching pr0n on a console seems pretty gross. There's a ton of...

    Pretty much. I'd love to see Square make an effort to make FF17 iconic like these old ones were. Meaning an iconic cast and story. Characters as interesting/memorable as FF7's. I don't know if something like that is possible for them now though. I think FF9 was the last one with a really...

    Alright, obviously use spoiler tags and don't post any actual images... Anyone know where I can find this "racy Mandy Rose content" that is sweeping the internet? Doing a search for it just turns up 500 articles about how WWE released her over it, but not the actual thing she was fired over...

    Final Fantasy VII Remake

    Yeah, Switch's 720p/30 just doesn't cut it when we have 2160p/60 on PS5. Switch is still my favorite system because it's portable. They aren't even really comparable at this point though. PS5 is the far-superior home console and Switch is the portable of the moment. Nintendo should probably...

    Watching the FFT trailer that someone posted way earlier, you can see this map in action for a moment. That trailer also has a bunch of other stuff that didn't make it into the game, like a map with a high bridge way above the terrain. The maps also look considerably bigger than in the final...

    Oh man, I just watched that for the first time back in October or so. It was SO BORING that I don't remember anything about it and don't even know what it was about. I was like actively paying attention to other things after a while and then the movie was over. Similar thing happened with the...

    So...they're gonna recast Kratos and his son as a strong female character and her strong female daughter? I'm already amazed enough to have a high-profile story about a father and son at this moment in time without any women being shoehorned in as co-protagonist. It's just a dad/son and their...

    Not trying to like one-up you or anything like that, but I think you're wrong on a couple things here. Zaland Fort City versus the cover screenshot. The different colors aren't the only thing that separates these. Zaland doesn't have battlements on the wall. However, they do have similar...

    I forgot that it got a Japan-only sequel too. I played all the way through Lennus 2 back in the 2000's somewhere on emulator and it's worth its salt. Takes a lot of PQ's good aspects and refines them.

    I think enjoyment of 7th Saga is dependent on which character you pick. Some of the characters are really bad. One friend of mine swears by Lejes (the necromancer guy) but I've seen him at the bottom of a few rankings online. Kamil is the averaged-out well-rounded character but he's so damn...

    How do you deal with someone's suicide?

    I need to correct something. I thought she went over to her parents house to do it. Turns out, they were actually LIVING with her parents because they got evicted. And it was a miserable situation for everyone involved. She kept trying to end the relationship but couldn't because this guy was...

    Oh yeah, Will being able to turn into Freedan in dungeons was awesome (and then at the end, Shadow was alright). My mom loved Illusion of Gaia in particular on the SNES and got it for me after a rental. I emulated Soul Blazer and Terranigma later to complete that trilogy. I think my favorite...

    Oh yeah, I never really got into the esper powerup bonuses back in the day. I'd focus on learning all the spells for everyone and just cycle all the espers around doing that. I remember hearing that they'd totally break the game if you focused on them. One time I did the Lete River level-up...

    Not gonna change your mind, but you're wrong. He's just a quintessential "RPG hero". If FF7 were a normal RPG, Zack (or someone with his personality) would be the protagonist. Cloud is standing in for the traditional protagonist. A poser, if you will. Cloud is more interesting, yes. He's more...

    Anyone remember Secret of Evermore? I played that game to death in the 90's and I've run it roughly every five years since then. My last one was about 6 years ago but I haven't felt the need to play it again. It got a rebalancing patch in like 2016 that might be worth checking out for people...

    They what?? I agree. There are so many ways to break the game and none of them are remotely necessary. The only time it makes sense to min/max in FF6 is if playing the Advance version, since it has an actual postgame with an uberboss. And even then I wouldn't do it. That uberboss isn't too...

    Yeah I also felt things at that last part. For me it was more about groups of friends hanging out and then the era comes to an end, whether it's school friends all graduating, or grown-up friends all getting families and kids one by one and sort of sodding off. I've had a few groups like that...

    That's gonna be a tough call. On Switch I could play them on the go, on PS4 they'd have trophies. I think I'll go with PS4. If I wanted to play them on the go I could have done that already and gotten the phone versions. Trophy support for these is really appealing, because I've always wanted...

    Glad you mentioned this, my PS Plus sub ran out the day Elden Ring got the multiplayer DLC (lawl) so I couldn't play it. I was gonna re-up that whenever I got around to it and had time to play. Glad I didn't do it last week when it would have cost twice as much.

    After looking into this more... It's looking to me like all of the "sky is falling" DCU talk around the internet was jumping the gun (no pun intended).

    You're right. There's a good chance that if we were in touch, I could have helped, since I was the only friend (then boyfriend) who was ever successful at helping her.
