I got a retroid pocket 3+ for Christmas. Loaded it up with JRPGs, but this list seems like some fun games to play when I finish one so I don't burn out on that genre. Thanks a lot!

That's just an excuse. WB choose when to activate the servers. They could have easily put them online for reviewers.

Surprised this hasn't been said more in this thread, to be honest. All it seems to be is Breath of the Wild and Soulslikes.

I've tried 3 different Monster Hunter games, I've really tried to see what people enjoy about them. But the controls are so awful, the loop is tedious, and I could never find anything good to say about them. This series truly confuses me.

Pretty sure they've stated Zelda games will lean closer to the two recent entries going forward, so those of us who think like this really can only cross our fingers that something resembling previous Zelda titles returns.

Not saying you can't play just one or the other, but they're both made better by the existence of the other.

It's really one game split into two. There's some new tracks in The Lost Age, but if you weren't a fan of the first OST, the second isn't any different.

The story continues in the sequel and rounds things out a bit more. If I had to pick between the two, The Lost Age is my favourite, but you can't have that without the first.

It's okay, don't worry. They "don't really think of [their] game as fitting with any particular label".

Tldr, the games director never referred to it as a live service game (even though it has all the elements of one and takes a lot from other live service games).

I'm actually playing FF7 for the first time on a handheld emulator. I've previously tried to play FF4 and FF6 (several times) but couldn't really get too far in before giving up. I'm nearly 8 hours into FF7 now and, while it's definitely a bit dated in terms of controls (and obviously graphics), I'm having a much better time with it and as it stands, can see finishing it if it keeps going like it is. I just made it to the open world.

Yea, I don't know. I disagree with the others. They're definitely not modern games, but I think they're both still quite good games individually.

I would recommend MGS3, personally.

Is this your first time playing it? Or, like many people, at least 10th playthrough.

Fortunately, all of those books seem to be in my local library ebook app, so I've got some new reading to do, thank you for the wonderful breakdown!

Audiobook unfortunately isn't much of an option for me due to attention issues. All I know is it's been impossible for me to find the Starlight & Shadows series.

If you have any recommendations for Evans' books I'd love to see if I can check those out, as well.

...I've already bought this game a bunch, but why not have another avenue in playing it? Truthfully I'll still probably play the SNES version.

They've been caring less about artists and the community in recent years.

At cons, they used to pay for artists hotels and give them free booths to set up, now artists get nothing and have to pay something like $750 for a booth.

If they wanted to fire the "bad performers" then they'd be firing the CEOs and higher ranked people, not those actually making the products work.

I've been searching all around for Cunningham books and I can't find any. Not any libraries around here, virtual or physical. Not any used book stores. No where!

Unfortunately because of poor time management (again), they weren't allowed to give a speech.

Any way you can play it is the best way.

I personally love the SNES version, many people say the DS version is the definitive, though I dislike the anime cutscenes from the PS1 it includes, the new translation, and the additions they made are awful.

I've heard the PC version has been fixed and is a great way to play it now, as well.

I'm wondering why WotC are so committed to making plans that are so anti-consumer?

You'd figure they'd want to build back good will after the last year, but every move they make seems to just dig deeper into the "fuck you, give us more money" pit.
