  • It honestly depends (imo) what you expect a Final Fantasy game to be, maybe you could elaborate?

    If you want an Old school rpg? Go for the pixel remasters on pc, or emulate. 1 and 2 are fairly open and unguided for example, but do establish some tropes and recurring themes.

    Once you hit 3D era games the gameplay also changes with it. Some are more action based, others are more traditional.

    The story however will always be a big part, with interesting takes on how to save a world. Some people find it convoluted however.


  • I adore Disgaea. I played it on a hacked psp back in the day, and just fell in love with its style and charm. I got it on pc legitimately some years ago, and then got the ps4 hd version to play on the sofa. While the grind is not for everyone, it’s an amazing journey for those who enjoy tactical games (that don’t take themselves too seriously).

    I haven’t started its sequels, but I want to finish this hd version first. Until then, they’ll be looking at me from the ps plus catalogue.



  • Yes, but also no. I’ve also seen it compared to dragon age inquisition too. You’re the chosen one, but you suck.

    There is no ‘git gud’ of reading boss animations, for example. The sword and sorcery theming does fit the dark souls theme, and exploration is rewarded. It’s on sale on Playstation at the moment, I got it for 5 euros.






  • The primary thing with r/pics and its users is that they are creating/posting SFW quality content for free. They are an established platform with an audience, and the tradeoff is that the platform can be used for ads by its owner. This is all fair.

    The main outrage against the blackout is now coming from people who usually scroll, upvote, and consume content. Not content creators. They cannot fathom that their source of entertainment is inaccessible and just want people to stop ‘overreacting’ and get back to scrolling.

    What happens when the platform is no longer reliable, because the owner decided to upset the people making sure the quality remains as established? Sure, someone else will fill the gap, but with these actions I’m sure a lot content creators have flocked to other places. Which leaves the bots, and the lurkers. No content is worse than low quality content.

    I’m curious for what the future brings for Reddit. It feels like it will have a different trajectory compared to Twitter, where anything is content and quality doesn’t matter as much.
