It can be at first if you go underleveled and unprepared.

I seriously need to play X again, its been 15+ years since I last played it.

It's still likely going to be a while before I beat X. But I have X-2, XV, and VIII in my sights.

I also want to get back to IV at some point and play VI.

I have played some of the games in the series but don't think I'll ever play or beat all the main games. 

I know grinding isn't fun, but there are a few spots where doing it makes the game substantially easier. I think it's worth it, as it generally makes the annoying bosses trivial. 

I just recently finished Final Fantasy VI Mobile remake on Steam late last year and Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade on Steam 3 months ago. Prior to that I beat Final Fantasy I-VI Pixel Remasters on Switch 1 and Final Fantasy VII OG on Switch 1 as well.

In terms of my backlog of what Final Fantasy games I own that I havent played or finished.....

Played through Hollow Knight. I don't think I have the skill/interest to do the 112%, but I finished the main story and had an awesome time. 

I also have been playing the Uncharted 1 Remaster. 

I always had mixed feelings on Uncharted 1, the couple of times I had played through it. I enjoyed the genre, but it generally felt like a 7-8/10 game for me. 

I kind of feel like the remaster must be a little less polished than the original. I was having some issues, a couple of ledges that Nate didn't want to grab the first time. But I felt like I had a much better time than I ever did before. It was very solidly a 9/10 game this round. Not sure if it's because of improvements to the remaster, or if I was just in more of an Uncharted mood than usual. 

Also tried Oblivion. Having some performance issues. Big frame rate drops every like 15 seconds in the open world. Going to wait on some patches. 

Also tried Fallout 4 for a few hours. And I feel like it's not quite what I want it to be. I plan on playing it, but I don't feel captured by it, right now. I don't know if this comparison will make any sense, but I feel like I was hoping for something more like Skyrim while happening to have guns, and it almost feels closer to something like BioShock. 

On the Final Fantasy topic, I have been wanting to get back into trying to play the mainline games. But I'm not sure where I want to go atm. 

Which ones have you played and do you prefer action or turn based more

Do you mind 2D or 3D more - or it doesnt matter?

Does anybody know which models are vulnerable to the liquid metal leak problem when PS5 is placed vertically (in terms of date of production)?

Friend's PS5 is shutting down after 30-40 minute sessions. At first I though its just overheating but in identical conditions, mine does not shut down. The only difference is that I place my console horizontally so I'm thinking it might be related to that known issue.

It's more just me overthinking. I have basically all the mainline games (except for XIII and the multiplayer ones), and I intend to play all of them.  

I was playing through Final Fantasy III and life got busy. And I don't really like coming into a game partway, so I'm not sure if I want to restart III but I also kind of feel like a change of pace might be good too. 

Kind of in the mood to replay X, kind of want to start playing XII, also kind of feel like I should keep up on III. 

Too many good options. 

Supposedly the launch PS5, but it doesn't sound very common. 

May be worth opening up the PS5 and checking the vents/fan for dust. 

Destiny Rising has over 5 Million registered players.

It could honestly be a huge hit for Sony in the mobile space.
