I played DE and never got past the diner because I didn’t feel like reading. After they updated it with voice acting, I still never left the diner because everyone was speaking so slow. I legitimately fell asleep multiple times lol. I don’t think it’s a bad game, but man do I hate video games
Oh wow in i think 2020 i did the same thing. Finally played FF7 and the Metal Gear Solid Series. They all hold up. I was really blown away by all of them
It might be because I've never played a Final Fantasy game before but I like the combat. I find the Materia system to be surprisingly compelling. My only complaint is that when facing an enemy that requires more care than just repeatedly Thunder => All on, I feel like an idiot, but that's probably just a skill issue.
I’m still pissed off about them updating their character creator in CK3. Had so many attractive characters’ DNA saved for future use, only for them to completely revamp the way character features are stored, so nothing from before is valid
You’re not behind on video games, you just have abundant choices. While having too much choice can be stressful in itself, it doesn’t have to be. If you have games that you like playing then you’re winning, and if you never run out of games you like playing then you’re always winning.
I do sometimes wish I had the time to dig into those really intensive strategy or simulation games that require like 100+ hours to fully experience, but that’s a choice I’m making because there are other games to play and other things to do.
That's the one good thing I still like about reddit - crowd sourcing decisions. If I'm looking for new music, TV, games etc. to play, I just search the forums and look for the most often mentioned bands/shows/games in the genre I'm interested in. 90% of the time it works all the time
I’ve wasted so much money on trendy multiplayer games because everyone was playing it, only to realize I have no friends or no one wants to play with me lol
I used to have that drive, and then at some point I realized I either never "keep up" or wouldn't have a life. So now I just spend too much time with Suica Game and Peggle. And eventually I'll start Disco Elysium but a full JRPG would take me a year to finish at this point...
