Well, I mean, it sucks, so it's pretty easy.

True that. I'm just glad to be seeing someone hating on a title other than FFVII, lol.

It's weird and trendy to hate VII, most people don't even know why they're doing it, I think. :/

Re: Drive-by comment:

[identity profile] degreve.livejournal.com 2008-07-02 02:18 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, really. :| Most often I think it's because FFVII's popularity tends to overshadow the other titles a bit. Which, can be true in some cases but haters usually forget that most people were introduced to the franchise because of it. Despite it's imperfections, it holds a special place in my heart. <3 :D;;

It does, and some of the compilation was pretty icky but that doesn't mean the game was bad. I think a lot of it was the OLD SCHOOL HARDCORES being like "omgz FFVII sucks they're selling out!!" or something, which then got picked up by a lot of gaming websites and then became a mini-phenomenon in the whole gaming community. Which is dumb. Because that has nothing to do with the actual game, which did bring the genre to a lot of people and had to have been good at something to do that.

Anyone who likes FFX probably hasn't played it since 2002, for srs.

YESSSSS. We're clearly on the same page of the BOOK OF AWESOME.

CHRESTOMANCI REPRESENT. Conrad's Fate is the best of them too, in my opinion.
ext_55206: (Psy - Read a fucking book)

[identity profile] jill-calico.livejournal.com 2008-07-02 09:10 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm extremely fond of The Lives of Christopher Chant, but Conrad's Fate takes a very, very close second place. :D

Yes, that one is also very very good. Dammit! Why must shopping in the book section for little kids be so appealing!!

[identity profile] abrogate-nadir.livejournal.com 2008-07-02 09:40 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh snap, may I add? I'm a big RPG and fantasy dork, myself. I may be a young un, but I've played the classics like Chrono Trigger, the early FF games, Valkyrie Profile 1 and Wild Arms 1, etc.
