I put effort into shopping for things that are that serious. This, as I plainly mentioned above, is not that serious. I never complained about not being able to get a PS5 or Xbox, I just said I’m not putting in the effort detailed in the article to do it. They are low priority to me, and that was a basic priority…

Yeah I’m not doing all that. It’s not that serious, and I already have a job. Hell, part of me is grateful that I haven’t just added to my backlog haha.

I love that, thanks for the link, SOLD!

I have a similar complicated relationship with completionism as well haha. I actually avoid going through entire series at times just because I can’t always turn off my completionist tendencies and I end up spending too much time on any one entry before I just decide to play other stuff.

Oh wow I forgot ab0out Marty because I haven’t followed ROH in a while; what a shame. Even if the allegations are exaggerated, just what he admitted to is creepy.

Guess I’ll drop an obligatory “I remember most of these” comment. I really remember them all pretty well except Inversion, which either completely got past me or I legit just thought it was Gears of War haha. From what I see, aside from the gravity manipulations, it’s literally “We got Gears at home.”

Nice haha. I always liked the different Bullet Club shirts, but I always flipped flopped over whose shirts to get that I never ended up getting any of them haha. Probably should’ve copped a Villain Club one. But still covet my King of Strong Style shirt that I managed to get just in time before NJPW to stop producing…

Oh man, that’s a tall task but an awesome endeavor. God speed! 

Hogan will actually have another umpire standing behind him at all times to make sure he doesn’t get rolled up for the visual pinfall mid-game. 

Wow you just became one of my favorite people haha. Ohtani should start doing Naito’s “open eye” gesture aimed specifically at SAS.

With that said, I’m looking forward to heel Ohtani’s anti-American faction 

I can’t disagree with you there haha 

This is actually a pretty common and well-established take, and one that I also share.

Exactly, it’s the best Star Wars. How is this a bad thing? =P

“Single-player MMO” was pretty much the phrase I always used to describe it to friends who hadn’t played it. I really enjoyed that feel as someone who couldn’t fully get into MMOs at the time and wanted something different from traditional turn-based single player RPGs. It took a lot of what worked with both.

Yeah I basically used summons just for fun and because they looked cool. When I wanted to do some real wrecking, Quickening chains were the way to go.

Yup, Vaan ended up just being an avatar, and honestly I thought it was the best way to go. I loved that they pulled a fake-out with the by-the-numbers andro dude you’d expect to be the main protagonist, only to have him essentially be a background character that allows you access to the much more interesting ones. 

Totally agreed. The narrative and world building I really fell in love with. It was familiar but still such a breath of fresh air for a FF game. And I really enjoyed that even though things did inevitably go “Let’s go kill a god” at the end, for much of the game we got an intimate, well-constructed political drama…

I approve, but these fools need to show FFXII some love

“Odd Infinitum” is a pretty apt description for that very glitch haha
