“They borrowed set pieces from every single game.” Yes, and that is a huge red flag and alarm bell. It’s a sign that they don’t give the slightest fuck about the story, and are just mashing stuff together. This is a trainwreck in the making. Gives me really strong “Resident Evil” movie fuck-up vibes...

I would say mine was XII. Moving away from turn-based combat was a deal breaker for me. I do give XI and XIV a pass because they’re MMOs.

Now I’ve still played XIII - XV, but I haven’t been jumping to buy them day one like I did before. I mainly got them long after the fact when they went on sale. By the same token,

I love how every comment section of an FF game is everyone ranking their favorites, just because the series is so disjointed and has such big leaps of style and structure.

And Bravel...uh I mean Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn is what resurrected it for me.

Having revisited FF XIII lately... er, it’s still a total mess of a game and one of the worst Final Fantasy titles I’ve ever experienced.

The love Final Fantasy XIII-2 deserves:

(I don’t think your article ventures into that territory at all, but it comes close enough to it that I figured this was excuse to try to put some vague thoughts

A slur is a slur no matter who it’s aimed at. The target being white people doesn’t make it somehow okay.

As someone who still has fond memories of QTEs thanks to Shenmue I’ll just say don’t threaten me with a good time.

Gremlins is sorely missing from the list.  It is mine and my friends go to Christmas movie, every year.

I wonder how high the tug of war and glass jumping game really were off the ground. Maybe 10 feet? 

A small device is affixed under each player’s shirt that “pops,” making a hole in the shirt and oozing out a brownish liquid.

I really enjoyed Silco’s role in the show, and I hope that he manages to make some sort of return for season 2. With that said, the writers are going to have to pull some serious tap dancing if they want to pull it off, short of having him just be a flashback / voice in Jinx’s head. Vander’s transformation into

And if you treated as a real live service game it would fail on every imaginable metric.

It Is 2021. Star Citizen Has Raised $400,000,000, And Is Still Not Out.

If any Star Citizen weirdos come in here saying iT Is OuT, and you’re talking about the empty/broken modules that are currently playable, I will turn to dust.
