This will obviously devastate so many people in the business but I really hope Erick Rowan/Redbeard has some good people near him. I don't know how close he was to Bray in comparison to Brodie, but losing two people that he spent some much time with has be one of the worst feelings in the world. Amanda Huber, too. Her husband, one of the people he was greatly attached to and helped a lot after he passed…Christ. Oh, damn. I didn’t even think about that.

Got FF15 for around $23 this morning. Noticed, the game's on sale at a 50% discount for the next couple of weeks, so I figured I'd pick it up. Meant to get it earlier, but opted to go with Ghost of Tsushima instead. Gotta love it when things pan out this way. Hope you enjoy it. I liked that one a lot. It's a very flawed game, but I still enjoyed my time with it.

I'm fairly certain I'm near the end of the game. {Spoiler}{Spoiler}{SPOILER: CLICK TO SHOW}That fight with Barnabas was downright brutal. And I kinda wish they developed his character more up until that point, but the Odin skills are great and I may have found my ideal Eikonic abilities setup now. {Spoiler}It's like they over compensated the fact you get Odin's abilities so late in the game by making them busted as hell. If you haven't yet, get Arm Of Darkness mastered as soon as you can. That increases the Zantetsuken max from level 3 to level 5.
Zantetsuken Level 5 = Everything Dies

My Persona 5 Royal playthrough: "117 hours? That's cute." I just checked, and I have 198 hours in P5R. But I also didn't Platinum that in the what two weeks-ish that it's been out.

I have crafted the Ultima Weapon and will obtain the Platinum trophy upon beating my Final Fantasy Mode play through.

The Bearers is treated like CHEEKS in this game lol The scene where a mother revealed she got rid of her newborn because he was one angered me Damn near every side quest along the first trip toward Moore angered me SO MUCH, I was like, “wipe this place off the map, it will not be missed”

Finished the game.
I’m going to need some time to think about how I feel about the ending.

Guess who just crafted the strongest weapon in the game!
It’s me.
I did.

Spoilers for a late-ish(?) game side quest. {Spoiler}When it was was mentioned Theo lured a dragon away from the village and towards an area with an Aether flood, I was expecting him to become an Akashic.
What I didn’t expect was for him to regain consciousness long enough to say good-bye to Elouise and then kill himself so she or Clive wouldn’t have to.
Nor did I expect to become so emotional over the death of a character I only interacted with a handful of times, particularly in the cutscene that followed.

I absolutely love this game. I’ve not yet finished it, but I have come awfully close to being able to utter the sentence “When did the sun come up?” Some of the side quests are really horrible. Not horrible as in they're badly structured or have bad graphics or anything like that, but horrible in subject matter and really, really dark. I didn't expect a FF game to get quite as heavy and dark as some parts of this one does. I was not prepared for the ending of the The Playthings side quest. Even Clive was shook!

I started The Legacy storyline. One thing The Lock had over this so far is a dedicated name others call the character regardless of what the player chooses.
Even the LJ nickname characters backstage call her would work for commentary. I will say I have encountered more paths to choose in this than I remember in The Lock, so this seems to have a bit more replay ability, at least early on.

I finished The Lock storyline.
I have opinions about a few things at the very end, and the story feels like it stops rather than ends.

I’m enjoying the hell out of The Lock storyline mode. Totally not the G1 portion was a personal favorite of mine.

One thing I see often pondered on the interwebs is that you never see ads for Microwave ovens. Now I’m old enough to remember when they really started to catch on in the 80s, and I vaguely remember seeing ads, particularly when they started to add new features. But yeah, not seen any ads for microwaves recently. I saw a post on Facebook about the lack of ads for Microwaves, and then it hit me that I have no memory of ever seeing one.

Was not expecting the cat suit.
Neat.

I think that segment needed to be as long as it was. Why? For years, the fans have been holding up the 1’s and acting like they were part of the act. That the Bloodline were the good guys. We needed something as painful and as uncomfortable as that to realize that these guys are the bad guys. Sami and Jey weren’t just the ones gaslit. The fans were gaslit too. And for those wondering why Sami didn’t come out on top in that segment, his character isn’t just instantly going to become Stone Cold Steve Austin. He’ll get his, but last night wasn’t the night. This entire post is spot on. Amusingly, Grammarly deemed my post as assertive, which is symbolized by a finger pointing up.
