I definitely did all the stuff you mentioned, hunting down Knights of the Nine and beating the weapons and everything. It was 100-percenting a game kind of before that was a thing. I played the absolute HELL out of FFVII. So obviously I was into it at least to some degree. Read more

I’d play that game. Read more

Fair, but I didn’t really have time to talk about them all. Read more

Yannick made exactly that point on Thursday, actually. http://kotaku.com/league-of-lege… Read more

Ooo, I was looking for exactly that image but struggled to find it. I’ll slap it in the post where it belongs. Read more

I don’t think either of you are wrong, definitely. I’m having trouble reconciling Pokemon — I’m not sure that audience really bleeds into the rest of the RPG audience too much.

I neglected to mention the PC version of FFVII that was released in 2013, which I think also counts in favor of the point I was making. We have the option to play the game as it was originally made, so I’m in favor of Nomura and his team trying something new. Read more

Also thank you for calling him Dr. Bashir. Not long ago I was watching GoT with some pals and made that joke and they were all too young to have seen DS9. It was so, so sad. Read more

Show up, stab a main character, fade away. Read more

We can dream. Read more

I’m going to have to go look it up because it sounds pretty mind-bottling. :D Read more

Yeah, I kinda realize that Portal speedruns aren’t, like, the new thing or anything. But somehow I never watched many, and just seeing NoirCat decimate things that I remember taking me SO LONG to figure out....

No problem, right? Read more
