By a sheer stroke of luck Daddy also had Legend of Zelda! This is where I started and this is the moment that I hold closest to my heart as a gamer, but is Zelda the title that molded me as the gamer I am today? No, that happened almost 10 years later, when a new friend in a new neighborhood introduced me to Final Fantasy VI. That game shaped me into the JRPG loving gaming enthusiast that I am today.
So, what game did that to you? What game sucked you in and caused such an incredible love for gaming that it still stuck with you for over 20 years?
Of course this mainly applies to us older people, but feel free to let me know what game(s) you hold closest to your heart. Don't be shy. |
We are similar, you and I... replace FF VI with FFX and the friend with a close videogame store, and we're pretty much even...
From there... my outlook on gaming changed, it went from high scores and 100% completion to trying to savor games as if they are books and experiences (and in my mind, some games succeeded in that... FFX being one of them).
GOOD THREAD!
