Final Fantasy always felt like the most overrated game series out there to me, I suppose I can’t call it generic when it set the standard for early RPG’s but each one feels no different than the last.My kid is playing final fantasy XIV and I am watching. First, I'd like to give a massive shoutout to the creators for the detail and creativity. It is just amazing work. The time and teamwork this took is massive.
Second, there is too much damn information on the screen, bars and charts and maps, and grids, and words and compasses. I don't know how the f we are supposed to see all that beautiful work.
Third, I absolutely love the other people running around playing this game. We got to some room in the story and I swear, there were like 733 people all standing around with little nametags over their heads. It was crowded as hell and nobody was doing a thing. I asked my kid, what are all these people doing?
Apparently they are socializing.
When we watch other gamers play games, I am a huge critic of their gameplay. Grumbling at their idiotic choices. I sit all arrogant on my couch. But, I do not critique my child as he will get up and leave. And then I'm all by myself wondering what the hell happened to my life.
I will not lie, if I was playing, I would not make it 5 minutes into ANY game without using up my death quota. I would never see the game because I couldn't
get past the opening run down the street.
Well deserved free time. Enjoy!!Got Jedi Fallen Order and Red Dead Redemption II for Christmas. I actually have free time now that the MBA has been obtained!
I'm watching a gamer named Dodger play MAIZE.
