Are there other people out there, or other instances, where you like to talk a lot about JRPGs, stuff like Shin Megami Tensei, FF, BoF, DQ, Star Ocean, Xeno, stuff like that?

Or classic Spyro, Crash Bandicoot, Sly Cooper, Jak and Daxter, Kingdom Hearts, Ratchet and Clank...

Or even just games from that era that you like, like 90s - mid 00s

Souls stuff? Bloodborne? Elden Ring? Other ARPGs like Ys?

Fanart, rare media, mods, speedruns, talking about your favorite moments, discoveries, characters, playthroughs and challenges, stuff like that...

I just need to not only see AI doom stuff and politics for a while. I want to talk about fun things I like. With other people who like those things. #gaming #jrpgs #ps1 #ps2 #gbc #gba #nds #3ds

They keep calling them #JRPGs these days, games like #Chronotrigger, but back when I was a kid, they were just #RPGs

I played four #ComputerGames yesterday, and, funnily enough, one of them wasn't with 4 Guys Co-op, which got canceled due to illness, injury, and travel. I got sucked into Hideo Kojima‘s Death Stranding over the weekend. It recently came to Xbox Game Pass—an odd #cRPG, whose main mechanic is trying to stay upright while carrying a lot of stuff. I also played Eternal Strands, Metamorph ReFantazio (sic), and Octopath Traveler, all fun #JRPGs. Damn that #Xbox rewards gamifying system!

Video Game Review: Final Fantasy VII: Rebirth

Final Fantasy VII: Remake, in my opinion, ended on a very strong point in the game. It covered a core early part of the game, setting up that this was a series that wasn't just reiterating the story, but was also in dialogue with the concept of remakes and reimaginings, and the expectations that come with that. It set up a sequel in Final Fantasy VII: Rebirth that was more wide open, and which I was eagerly looking forward to. I was not disappointed. […]
