Tactics is the best Final Fantasy, I'm thinking. Might be the best SRPG too, once you get passed the interface being a tad outdated. I'm really liking the writing too. The antagonists are very sympathetic thus far and yeah, Aristocracy should be torn the shreds.

Delita is a bro and Argath can go **** himself.

Something interesting about Tactics is that, its representation of Ivalice feels way different from what I remember playing XII. They both kind of have this... brown to them, but XII is more fantastical, with different races and somewhat futuristic elements. Tactics' Ivalice is more grounded in comparison. Very in the past, and no bunny people or anything of that nature. Just humans and monsters.

A very believable class conflict. No sexy bunny women to stomp on me.

Why is the aiming in Jet Force Gemini SO BAD on Rare Replay? Couldn't they have swapped the controls for aiming so you can continue moving with the left stick instead of switch it to right stick it every time you want to aim?....

Also got up to the part where you first play as...Veela, and...literally couldn't figure out how to get the 'green key'. I guess you CAN'T finish the level at this point, so you just...quit and switch to Juno in another level??? So baffled by this design decision, I didn't think it would feel this dated.

it will be a little bullshit if this is paid DLC, considering he was in the base NA/PAL versions of Nocturne. But I'm still gonna pogchamp at getting both Dante and Raidou.

edit: paid dlc. Can't have both Raidou and Dante in a single playthrough.
on the other hand

I played Final Fantasy XIV all afternoon to unwind and I think it worked.

Maybe I'm an MMO boy now.

I've been considering getting into XIV for a while now. First month is free, isn't it?

I believe the restrictions are that you're limited to one character. But level 60 is enough to get you through the original story and the first expansion.

Actually, the terms are the bullet points on this page. 8 characters, one per world. https://support.na.square-enix.com/r...&tag=freetrial

From my understanding, the first 60 levels are all about figuring out which jobs you like to play. Switching jobs is pretty easy, and it's not a huge commitment getting them to level 60. They become harder to level beyond that point, apparently.

Been going through Hitman (2016) and really enjoying just looking at all the detail packed into the environments. I also accidently purchased a Humble Bundle which came with Hitman 2, and now I'm excited to see how they play with the formula established in the first game, or at the very least have some more high-res dense areas to gawk at and vibe in.

....I just found the alternate control scheme for Jet Force Gemini in the menu in Rare Replay itself instead of in game.

I'm a fool. This is loads better. Still not sure where I'm supposed to be going next, because I seemingly got to a dead end as space boy now, and space girl also reached a dead end sooo.... I got the Sniper and Tr-Cannon so I guess I'll go back and run through the previous levels as boi again?

I had only played a level or two previously as a kid because I never had it, then got it used and didn't like the control scheme. Feels wrong to use a guide, but when levels just kinda....stop your progress because apparently you come back later with a powered up other character without any kind of heads up or warning or specific "You need X to go further, come back later" or something... feels bad, and wrong... badong.

I just remembered; A buddy of mine who is a huge gamer just got an Oculus setup with his gaming rig. This is my first experience with VR and holy shit is it a game changer fmpov. I'm really excited to see where it goes and what experiences can be developed with that as a platform. Mostly been enjoying SUPERHOT and Beat Sabre. Beat Sabre is probably the best rhythm game I've tried, simply because interacting with the music in such a fluid, flowy way is immensely satisfying. My only gripe is that a lot of my favorite music is more nichey electronic, which is much less likely to have any custom maps built.
