My brothers and I used to play the hell out of Sword of Vermilion. It’s a damn good game. Personally, I’ve always put it (and Shining in the Darkness) just a tier below the Phantasy Star series. Sega definitely knew how to make an RPG.

I think it’s a matter of personal perspective. I used to have a friend that was Pan, but they absolutely LOATHED anyone that self-identified as Bi. They would randomly go off on social media rants about how Bi people were cowards and traitors and hatemongers, and were (somehow?) responsible for causing more damage to…

Fallout 4:  Far Harbor 

That ‘70s Show. Make it along the same lines as Dark Souls, except this time you’re using trial and error in order to keep Red’s foot out of your ass.

Same. I’ve been playing it on PS4, and outside of a few game crashes, I haven’t had any issues. Whenever I see someone else’s footage of a buggy/glitched-out game on a last-gen system, I’m confused as to how I’ve apparently gotten so lucky.

I’m hoping we get a current-gen release of the Mass Effect remastered series (not to knock the previously announced last-gen version).  Also, do we have any idea when the next Fable game will be dropping?

For 2021, I will stop expecting to hear anything about an actual release date for the next Dragon Age game. That one’s been burning me for years now. Sure, BioWare will give us some more cinematic teasers, but nothing actually newsworthy. At this point I fully expect it will come out on the next-gen systems (aka PS6…

But Shepard has to die for synthesis to occur...

Agreed. I’ve put more hours into replaying DA:I (and Origins and II) the last few years than any other game/series in my library. It’s a damn good game, but people have a bad tendency to equate ‘not liking a game’ to it ‘being a bad game’. And it’s not even exclusive to gamers (music definitely comes to mind). I don’t…

Not sure if it counts as its own system, but the Sega 32X. There wasn’t anything inherently wrong with it. But seeing as the Saturn came out like 6 months later, it just felt like a complete waste of time and money afterwards.

Grunt. 

Wrex. 

Wonderful news, exactly what I wanted out of N7 Day. I’m assuming the Remaster will include all the DLCs, as well? I’m also curious what the additional differences will be in the PS5/Series X versions (i.e. should I hold off on buying the last Gen formats in the Spring or not).

Going to wait for now. Until something I care about comes out on a next gen (a new Fable, Elder Scrolls [probably not until the NEXT next-gen], the rumored Mass Effect remaster, etc) there’s zero reason for me to bother getting one.

As a Sega fan-boy back in the ‘80s and ‘90s, I still hold a grudge against Nintendo (even after all these years). I think Nintendo might be the only company I wouldn’t be okay with buying them (outside of EA, of course). 

I’d heard somewhere that Sega itself might be the next big bidding war between Microsoft and Sony (seeing as apparently most everything has to owned by one or the other now). Has anyone else seen or heard anything along those lines, or is this just another one of those “if it’s on the internet, it must be true” things?

Through the 80’s and 90’s I was all about JRPGs (Phantasy Star, Shining Force, Final Fantasy, etc). But since around the turn of the century, or whenever it was that KOTOR and Fable dropped, I’ve greatly preferred WRPGs. I’ll replay those old classics from time to time, but I still go through Mass Effect/Dragon…

A couple gens back I got both the PS3 and XBox360. Last time around I just went with the PS4. For this next gen I’ll almost certainly stick with just owning a Playstation.

Phantasy Star IV. I should probably clarify that it was a good game. But given how long the first three took to beat, and how difficult they were, I was utterly disappointed with how easy and short IV was. Again, still a good game, but a disappointment all the same.
