I’ll admit, at first glance I thought the bats had “peed” themselves, as it’s very puddle-esque. The fact that it’s the placenta is a nice hint that they didn’t survive. Fascinating stuff, this nature.

Would you rather:

This was one of the many things that really soured me to the D3 experience. I excitedly got it for PC, then even console to play with some friends. Problems include:

I read this article to see how you’d rank my 2 favorite DC films: Flashpoint and Redhood.

I wish I could say my opinion was just for the sake of blasphemy, and DANG, I LOVED this series, watched it multiple times as a kid, I thought the frickin’ world of it...

What is this you speak of!? Lost script!??!?! I must know more!

Don’t do it, man! Keep those memories alive!

Oddly enough, this is a popular opinion among some of my college buds. I am the odd one out in my opinion that FF8 was the weakest amongst PS1/PS2 Final Fantasies. They feel so strongly about it, I began to even question my own feelings on the subject. I even replayed it again a few years back to see if my initial…

Oh, no...that’s Tiamat from the oooooold Dungeons and Dragons cartoon.

Aaaaaah, you so-beat me to the punch! The big ah-ha moment was that the CRAZY old guy in the beginning that rambled on about it being the plants was right. It was KILLER plants all aloooooooong!

I tried...so very hard to like them. But found my suspension of disbelief taxed to its limit, and that’s hard to do when we’re talking about a space opera with mythical mental (er, sorry, blood-borne-metachlor-UGH) powers.

Yeah, I guess I can see that explanation...It’s just, we start with him, always have him, and played several hours before getting to the “REAL” characters. Most Final Fantasies (VI excluded) seemed to start with the main character and maintained the story swirling around that main character. It was just odd and fairly…

Agreed. I still like to pronounce things in her cool accent just for fun. “Wood” is now forever “Wuut”.

Right!? Seriously, Vaan had such VERY little reason to be a part of this story. His only motivation was his brother was killed...and somehow Vaan “knew” it was Basch? Don’t get me started on Panelo...who’s own character description simply says “Vaan’s friend”.

YES! I appreciate the Uncharted reference...I coincidentally (and finally) beat Uncharted 4 last night. Sheesh, what a fantastic game made by a fantastic company...and ending it with some old school Crash Bandicoot was icing on the awesome-cake!

Another giant nerd like me?! I like the cut of your jib, Tygore!

I think Kingdom Hearts...or maybe it was Kingdom Hearts II already did so.

Oooooooh, man! Those are classics! You just made my day, Bertoli!

Shocking, right, how BORING heaven was. I was actually pretty pumped at that point to see something new and possibly impressive.

For me, D2 is still leagues better than D3, not just because of the cool locals and character-building, but the STORY! My god, D3's story is something I’d expect one of my 7th graders to produce. “I’m the Lord of Lies...you’ll NEVER guess I’d disguise myself as a boy king...” No, D3, I guessed that painfully RIGHT…
