@Darc, why play a game you don't like twice? That just seems silly. And I hope you don't play MMOs if your a questor (person obsessed with, or at least aiming at, doing every quest) @Aragod, curious to what put you off about FFVII. It's not my favorite FF, but I thought it was well done, and had an interesting story (especially for the time). |
Well I think that was the problem, I've played it after all those years downloaded from PSN, because all the talk that about how it changed RPGs at its time (which probably did).
I didn't like the setting, I thought it would be fantasy (final fantasy... you know association :), and I really can't stand FF combat system, maybe deeper in the game there are more things to it, but after 6 hours it was the same old and boring. I've played other FF games on NDS (well tried), but it's really not my cup of tea. Maybe I'm getting fed up with the japanese story telling, with all those incredibly naive characters and all the patos... The only JRPGs that have ever appealed to me were Fire Emblem (but that's mainly because of the gameplay, strategic rpg is my mana) and Dragon Quest remakes on NDS. Which is weired, since DQ and FF have a lot in common.
MY HYPE LIST: 1) Gran Turismo 5; 2) Civilization V; 3) Starcraft II; 4) The Last Guardian; 5) Metal Gear Solid: Rising
