    Feedback XenForo 2 Skin Poll

    Apparently I'm missing something, which isn't surprising in the least, lol. But they all look more or less the same to me. With that in mind, and the fact that they're apparently NOT the same, the most I can say is that I like the color scheme of Apex.

    SPOILERS The chocobo chick and Chocolina... What do you think of it?

    Lol, likewise, I'm completely indifferent to it. I'm sure if I thought about it for just a few minutes that I'd remember dozens of equally nonsensical and ridiculous choices with minor characters in the other games (Zorn and Thorn come to mind, as does Cait Sith). I'm sure it just comes down to...

    Did you / do you ever play video games with your relatives?

    My uncle lived really far away when I was young. So when he would come over, we loved to spend hours playing Driver 1 with codes on. We would do infinite health and 'stilts', which raised the car way off of the wheels, giving it a super springy suspension. There's a glitch where if cars run into...

    Main Series Games from Worst to Best

    Yeah, I reread your list after posting mine, and realized that some of my statements could be misconstrued as direct responses to things you said. Want to make clear that this wasn't the intention. It was all meant as an explanation of my choices, and not intended to ever directly counter your...

    Main Series Games from Worst to Best

    NOTE: Not sure why, but it refuses to not add a bunch of extra spoiler tags for every entry, even if I delete the paragraphs and consolidate them into one for each entry. So, umm, deal with it I guess? Lol. NOTE 2: I think I fixed it. Hopefully it's not broken for anyone else anymore :) Since...

    FFXV's new DLC chapters, 'Dawn of the Future' announced, roadmap for 2018-9 revealed

    ... This game confuses me more and more with every new announcement... On the one hand, I like many of the choices they're making. On the other hand, hearing about mod tools makes it difficult to shake the idea out of my head that they're going the Bethesda route, and trying to convince others...

    Who was the superior protagonist?

    Yeah, I think Zack's purpose is much better served as a side character. His 'good guy' attitude is the core influence that kept Cloud -who otherwise is supposed to be a parallel to Sephiroth, since both are superhuman experiments who were then abandoned like trash- from learning to loath...

    Who was the superior protagonist?

    I agree completely. Cloud is much more nuanced and grows a lot more. He's more human, despite his flaws being rather... crazy... Zack could've been fine, and I wouldn't say he's awful. But the terrible plot and characters around him in Crisis Core really drag him down. CC was honestly more...

    What content was added post-release (+rant)

    A looooooot was added to the game, though very little of it besides the DLC chapters and some realistically minor scenes were story related. They altered some items, added the ability to play as the characters besides Noctis, added the monster truck, other items like the Nixperience Band, the...

    Is the ATB battle system really that innovative?

    That type of talk is so refreshing to hear, because nearly everyone I meet outside this forum believes it's sacrilege to have an FF that isn't either pure turn based or using ATB.

    Fan Art Showcased Your Fan Art

    I wasn't going to share, because I thought the only recent fanart I'd done was the Tifa piece that went into the 2017 Photobook. But then I remembered that I also made this last year:

    What is your favorite get away spot?

    Window shopping at the local strip mall is my get away spot/activity. There's something really freeing about just walking around in different stores, particularly stores related to games, books, or general electronics.

    Zodiac Age What Features do you like most about this Version?

    Probably the speed, because it makes the time wasting end-game superbosses more fair to beat. They're significantly less of a boring war of attrition. The updated music is also fantastic.

    FFVII Encounters/No Encounters Run Differences (Video Series)

    Figured I'd post this here for anyone interested. As many of you may know, I'm of the mind that most games in the FF series, as well as most games in the J-RPG genre waste a lot of their strategic potential by being too easy. Because of a host of ancient design choices that have become ingrained...

    Worst Kingdom Hearts Game?

    Objectively worst, I'd say probably 358, because it's just so... dang... repetitive. It's slow, abysmally paced, furthered the decline in story coherence, and wastes tons of the player's time. The one I hate the most though is BBS, because it had all the makings of a great game, and squandered...

    Best Kingdom Hearts Game?

    I pretty much echo Example here. 1 is the only one with competent writing. And while 1 is mostly a solid game mechanically, 2 is an absolute masterpiece of design as long as you pick Critical Mode. Even level 1 runs are wonderfully designed. THe other modes are.. less well designed, but Critical...

    Cannot start the game (PC, Windows Edition)

    No, they're talking about making a new Windows account I believe, and setting it as the administrator on the PC. It's in the FFXV category :P That being said, I personally don't have much of an answer. The best I can say is that the game needs your account to be an administrator account in...

    KHII Level 1 Run?

    Yeah, his stuff is super rad, and he makes some pretty informative videos on occasion too. I'm watching through his third KHII Randomizer run right now. I'm increasingly surprised at how well harder challenges work on KHII. KHI kinda sucks in that regard. I was impressed with Proud Mode's...

    KHII Level 1 Run?

    Anyone else tried it? I've already 100%'ed the game on Critical twice. So I decided to try, and it's really fun! A bit of a difficult start, but it works extremely well. Figured we could share experiences.

    Square Enix Favorite Square-Enix Franchise?

    My favorite is FF. My second is probably Kingdom Hearts, despite so much of it being so poorly made. Those few moments where it does work, are moments you can uniquely get only from Kingdom Hearts. Then is probably Dragon Quest or the Chrono series. Though it's not a franchise, special mention...
