The PS2 is still plugged to the TV because of two games:

Vaan isn’t the main character, he’s the audience surrogate like Tidus but diminished in overall importance. He’s someone this shit has to be explained to, and through whom other dimensions of the actual main characters can be highlighted (Ashe and Basch especially, but also his interactions with Balthier).

I won’t disagree that the story took a while to go anywhere interesting, but the world itself was amazing, and the sheer amount (and quality) of content and exploration were phenomenal. The game isn’t without faults, but there was a lot to love.

Different people have different deal-breakers, or judge the game by different standards. I don’t see how that’s hard to understand.

Is contractor and side labor work a new concept to this many people?

If you’re going to get paid pennies, don’t do the work. If you can’t get half or a decent portion up front, don’t do the work. Shit’s ridiculous.

1. As long as we have capitalism, we’ll have income disparity.

So basically, they decided they needed more Shark card sales.

Not anymore it’s not.

I was so certain I was gonna pick Litten.

How would anyone know about them if no one gave them attention? Sure, it’s a double-edge sword but I bet this guy would rather get popular for a few days and get a decent number of people downloading (and then distributing) his work than to never be shut down but to also toil in obscurity.

Do you seriously not understand the difference between those two things?

Eh, I just prefer the simplicity and convenience of PC emulation.

Welcome to Anime.

One of the worst offenders of this is Madoka Magica, which looks like anime shlock, but was one of the deepest and most rewarding movie trilogies I ‘ve seen.
