I've never played apart from FF1 on NES, which, from what I can tell doesn't seem to count.fbmf wrote:I've never played any of the Final a Fantasy games.

Shouldn't this be in the Video Games forum?
I've played most of the original Legend of Zelda, all of A Link to the Past, Ocarina of Time, Majora's Mask, Wind Waker (technically, I watched my brother play the last third or so of the game because I gave up on it at that point because it got too dull for me), Twilight Princess, (one of the Oracle games, can't remember which), Link's Awakening, A Link Between Worlds, and am starting on Minish Cap.
The Zelda games definitely worth playing are:
A Link to the Past
Ocarina of Time
if you liked ALTTP, Link's Awakening and the Oracle games
and if you liked Ocarina, Majora's Mask.
The only FF I've played all of is 7.

I'm a hopeless fan of 90's shonen anime: Specifically YuYu Hakusho and Kenshin.
He jumps like a damned dragoon, and charges into battle fighting rather insane monsters with little more than his bare hands and rather nasty spell effects conjured up solely through knowledge and the local plantlife. He unerringly knows where his goal lies, he breathes underwater and is untroubled by space travel, seems to have no limits to his actual endurance and favors killing his enemies by driving both boots square into their skull. His agility is unmatched, and his strength legendary, able to fling about a turtle shell big enough to contain a man with enough force to barrel down a near endless path of unfortunates.

Zak S, Zak Smith, Dndwithpornstars, Zak Sabbath. He is a terrible person and a hack at writing and art. His cultural contributions are less than Justin Bieber's, and he's a shitmuffin. Go go gadget Googlebomb!

I've never actually finished a majority of hte video games I've played. I'll invest crazy amount of hours into the game and then just lose interest. I enjoy the exploration/messing-with-the-game aspect way too much to sometimes see the plot all the way to the end.

No one actually finishes the bigger old games though do they? Baldur's Gate had some sort of bug that killed your save near the end and no one noticed for years. The pixel-bitching games were all bugged. I spent ludicrous amounts of time on stuff like Diablo, UFO, Fallout, and a few others back in the day, and they all had some game-breaking bug or another later on, often trashing saves.
Doom (and everything ID made) worked, any game where the final print lets you level-warp and cheat up keys and such tends to be bug-free enough to be finished. But you can play them through in a couple days too, and there's no character dev or anything.
Most of the modern stuff is much quicker to finish, bar the odd racer in career mode, they're usually still patching stuff when the next one comes out, and then they stop and you're just stuck with them.

Heh. Awesome. I'm thinking people still don't really finish the big ones. It's not like you can hex-edit the saves to fix stuff on an XBone.random google 2014 wrote:I had to re-start Skyrim within the first 30 seconds because the horse leading the carriage bugged out.

Zelda games I recomend! Link's awakening: because it's trippy as shit, Ocrarina of Time: just because that's where modern Zelda games come from, Wind Waker: because it's a good game.
Final Fantasy Games I recomend! FFX: one of the best most fleshed out world of any video games I've played, FFXII well put together game with a lot of extra side content to keep you busy for a long long while, FFV; you could accuse this game of having a janky translation, or relying a lot on plot convenience, but overall a very heartfelt entry. I recomend you get the fan translation of the NES version, since the video and audio are slightly better.

If you like Lucky Star then I will explain in great detail why Lucky Star is the a shitty shitty anime for shitty shitty people, and how the characters have no interesting abilities at all, and everything is poorly designed especially the skill challenges.

Me neither, but my wife is a fan of both. She will sometimes recycle anime plots when she GMs for me because she knows I won't have a clue.Count Arioch the 28th wrote:I don't think Anime is all that great. Also, not a Dr. Who fan.
As opposed to chick flicks, she makes me watch the weeping angel episodes with her because they scare her.

Episodes of Doctor Who vary so wildly in their nature that it's easy to see why people aren't fans. If didn't know whether you'd get Thai or filet mignon or cat food or a cheeseburger with extra pickles if you ate at McDonalds, would people go?
It's not like Deadwood or something, where there's a consistent flavor.
Confession: I hate it when shows use gimmicks like cursing and sexy naked people to attract attention, it has such a strong mental 'flavor' that it ruins my immersion. Also when fanservice is used as an emotional reset button. That is not what arousal is for.
I enjoy watching small children play - they're like puppies or kittens, only with opposable thumbs - but I don't dare do it often because people start giving you The Eye. (I can't blame them.)

The first and last videogame console I owned was the Atari 2600. On a fateful Christmas I asked for a MSX instead a Master System or one of the NES clones that were being sold here by then. While my friends were playing Mario, Zillion or whatever, I was obsessively playing this. From there, I graduated to an Amiga 500 ("woot!", I thought), and finally went full PC master race by getting a Pentium II 166 back when those were cool.
I played FF1 on emulators a few years ago and finished it, and never had the patience to play any other. I never finished a Mario, Zelda or Sonic game.
I played the shit out of SNK and Capcom arcades, tho.

I've seen perhaps only half or maybe even less of an episode of DR. Who.
Keys to the Contract: A crossover between Puella Magi Madoka Magica and Kingdom Hearts.
