If you had to spend 24 hours with an exact copy of yourself, what would you do?

Oh my god I think I finally understand Scrawler now.

Wasps are sturdy motherfuckers, man. They have really resilient carapaces — I've tried crushing them on various occasions and they keep getting back up.

Whispers looks kinda like Santa Claus. I hope this is not a coincidence.

On your first point, I have been reflecting that, had that first trailer for Versus XIII not caused such a stir, Squenix would probably have been comfortable letting the game die on the vine, and FFXV would be a wholly different game with different characters and settings that, maybe, would have felt more coherent. I

Well, technically, the "Gladio charge interference" animation was there to stop the charging Dualhorn at the very beginning of the game, but that was really just a cutscene with camera control, not an actual technique.
I think the combat is generally better than what we had in Episode Duscae, but getting rid of Noct's

I really like how all-American hero Joel Kinnaman is just 100% okay with his C.O. blowing away all her subordinates in front of her, right after having his 156th conversation with Will Smith about how he's a good guy and Smith is a bad guy.

I mean, the first trailer for the game as Final Fantasy XV showed a city-destroying battle against Leviathan in Altissia, but was absolutely not made with in-game footage, so the actual fight seems like it's more or less forced into being this big epic-seeming city-flooding fights extravaganza to reflect that first

Final Fantasy IX came out in 2000 and there was no voice acting or motion capture. The main character had a monkey tail for no reason and the villain was a twink.

So my final thoughts on this game:
—The villain stood to be one of the absolute best in the series — if only he was written better. I'm not entirely sure as to who his "true identity" was supposed to be or what powered him and, as far as I understand it, the only reason he helped you through half of the game was

God, yes, the original movie gives this vibe that anyone can become a Jedi if they do the space equivalent of training at the temple on top of the mountain for years. I don't know how you can go from such an obvious Eastern martial arts archetype to just being a bunch of stuffy clergymen directly involved in the

Man, remember when Luke mentioned the Clone Wars and your imagination ran wild, like "is that a war where they cloned Jedi, or maybe like a servile caste of cloned labor started a revolt or maybe something cool like that?" but then it turned out they just cloned a bunch of Boba Fetts?

Also dies. Parallel universes, dude! All bets are off! Darth Vader is killed in the first act!

That can't be the factor causing it. Everyone knows Sean only ever drinks whiskey.

That's just a scene from Temple of Doom and you know it, Gosling.

Not only that, but it would have been the titular line, too.

I think there was a deleted scene in the original where a minor character mentioned how sick he was of all these star wars. It got cut.

As another guy who more or less liked XIII, the villain only wanted to start a panic so he could make the good guys destroy the world as a sacrifice to bring the old gods back. If you didn't figure that out I guess that means you didn't feel like reading pages and pages of ancillary datalog entries and paying

It was…middling. They did a thing where they'd have us believe that red-hot adamantium has more cutting power than ordinary adamantium instead of obviously just being softer, so I hope someone got fired for that blunder.

Even if that statement wasn't pitting FFXV against crappy FFXIII sequels and god knows how many spin-offs and smartphone games, haven't pretty much all the FFXIV expansions been well-received?
