Some artists can condense a variety of concepts into three or four minutes, while others can make a ninety minute song about smoking dope in the desert and it’s just as compelling.
Vagrant Story was ahead of its time and constrained by the PS1 hardware. If Square Enix had held on for a few years and developed it for the PS2 it would have started its own franchise.
When I was in school, way back in the 20th century, I used to argue with my mate Steve about which was the greatest heavy metal band ever. Steve insisted it was Led Zeppelin. I was adamant it was Deep Purple. With hindsight, clearly we were both wrong, because of course it was Black Sabbath!
Ford has a hard enough time keeping up with demand for their vehicles as-is, so I kinda understand their decision. The US is starved for good domestic hybrid trucks, though, and Ford is leaving money on the table here.
The very first English horror movie I remember is Evil dead and the absolute hype surrounding it. There were stories of people dying of heart attacks after watching that movie. We borrowed a deck player to watch the movie. I don’t remember much but I remember a girl pulled by the vines and someone’s feet with cracks on the...
It wasn’t a horror movie per se but E.T. scared the living shit out of me when I was 5 years old. Every time I got sick I was scared some G-Men were going to abduct me and do experiments.
My pet peeve is the Finnish name “Yrjö”. It comes from the Greek name “Geôrgios”, which means farmer, but nowadays the word “yrjö” means vomit. ‘Unique spellings’ like some “Everleigh” also drive me crazy.
Left feeling a bit empty after playing it for the first time a few months ago(why did I wait so long?) I am afraid no JRPG will be able to surpass it. Would love to have a discussion about similar games that reach the same quality level (Note: I have already played Final Fantasy VI ).
Suikoden II is generally considered one of the best JRPGs on the PS1, and while the English translation isn’t spotless the writing and setpieces have a similar quality to Chrono Trigger. It is a sequel to Suikoden and you’ll enjoy the second game a bit more for having played the first one, but it’s not a requirement. The original Suikoden wasn’t nearly as polished and I’d hate for you to give up on Suikoden II because you burned out on it.
I made the switch when RiF died. In all honesty I wish it wasn’t necessary, because the niche communities here are a shadow of what Reddit had before the blackouts. And while Reddit had trolls just like Lemmy, it was big enough that you didn’t have to share general spaces with them.
Crusade. The story was just starting to get interesting but JMS had used all of his pull just getting the fifth season of B5 on the air. I’m cautiously optimistic about the animated series that was hinted at by The Road Home but I’m also not holding my breath.
For example, I am terrible at Super Meat Boy, but just playing it has really improved how I play platformers and games that need faster imputs overall.
The original Driver on PS1 made me better at handling cars in general, both in video games and real life. It’s a shame GTA and Saints Row went with exaggerated vehicle physics and the Driver series never got the non-vehicular parts right.
