“I realize that some people who “play to have fun”...”

I’ll be honest here: I HOPE they mess up quickly and survive in order to say “that was a bad idea” publicly.

“It’s Square Enix, after all, so they’ll mess this up.”

Well done on that choice of header image -- absolutely perfection for this article :D

Funny how the company that made a game about how corporativism drained the energy of a planet it’s now recreating the same. Fuckin’ NFT, it’s like a plague.

Squall, after dreaming he wrote that letter:

“Play to Have Fun”

It’s amazing how this guy seems to have so much contempt for people who care about the game world his company has created.

“In Final Fantasy VII: reUN7ON Part Deux, enterprising players will be able to more fully immerse themselves in the world by collecting unique beads of character sweat as NFTs!

as Square Enix would cast newcomer Cody Christian to play Cloud in 2020’s Final Fantasy VII Remake.

I’ve loved this man’s voice to my fave character for damn near 20 years and he does THIS shit? At the same time I believe Newburn (Sephy’s former ENG VA) is telling people to get the fucking shot/booster.

Now waiting for a bunch of facebook posts claiming the vaccines are loaded with Jenova cells.
