Remember the game "Remember Me"?
Made by Dontnod, and initially advertised as a scifi dystopian game where you're able to change & remix the memories of people-
But in the actual game(10 hrs long), you only do it 4(!) times.
I guess, one of the several reasons why people DONT remember it after all.

Day 4:
Best FF protagonist is Zidane Tribal for me.
Dude showed off his personality minute one. Full of life and cheekiness, he is just so fun to watch, while also slowly unravely his very own inner journey over the course of Final Fantasy IX.

Tho the 2000s were an edgy period for pop culture,
I do defend the niche between cartoons for kids and actual adult content, teen edge.
Sometimes people have the thirst for this specific taste of edgy with a side of colorful mascots.

Oh, I am not defending the actual game, I can imagine it still dying down early on in a timeline where it didnt get that much hate and vitriol-
But hate and vitriol it got, so I do get the developers frustrations with gamers at least.

YES! This is a terrific, terrific independent game. Very excited to play the latest installment.

Day 3:
Worst Final Fantasy?
Probably FInal Fantasy XIII ?
FFXIII was a huge disappointment, with a fighting system I hate(+I also hate the generic fighting theme), and a frustrating story.
You can tell it was made while Square was a dumpster fire how unfinished and stitchted together it was.

Day 2:
Favourite Final Fantasy?
Couldnt really choose just one, bc I love FFX, FFIX and FFVIII so much-
X for its story and themes, IX for its narrative and personality, and VIII for its atmosphere and vibes.
They all have specific strengths which appeal to me in a very special way.

also the same for Storm
But that's more because Storm is a beautiful queen who deserves so much love!
I'm so gay for her.

The devs of #Highguard got fired. One of them started a thread about the mockery the game received after its reveal initially-
With gamers making fun of them as a reaction.

I'm on the developers' side here, 1st they got fired, which sucks, & 2nd, gamers really over overdid it with their attacks.

You know what's fucking hilarious?
Sony making Morbius, the movie flopped, but was meme'd so hard, that Sony released it AGAIN to ride on that popularity-
Only for the movie to FLOP AGAIN.
That is so goddamn funny!

because #Marvel doesn't know what to do with MJ she ended up with... Venom's symbiote and ran around as a big buff guy for a while?
But now she got a new form which makes her look more feminine.
With heels.
The fucking heels on her venom-costume are killing me, man...

Ubisoft workers are on strike: 'We are treated like children' The strike comes after the publisher revealed plans to cut up to 200 jobs and ordered remote workers back into the office

Over 1,000 Ubisoft workers around the world have walked off the job.

In response to a return-to-office mandate, layoffs, and the cancellation of several games, workers launched a three-day strike.

The workers walked out in response to five French unions issuing the strike call.

I actually have seen some people defend media illiteracy, calling media literacy propaganda/being brainwashed.
Seriously.

Day 1:
First FF I've ever played was FFVII as a kid, a neighbour owned the first CD and we played the bombing mission.
But the first FF I've ever owned was FFX later, and that after Kingdom Hearts, so I did recognize both Tidus and Wakka which was interesting.

There's something hilarious/fascinating how a nameless side character(just known as "Lana's mother") from Pokemon has caused so much porn. Especially because in the actual anime she got barely 4 minutes screentime.

Spoiler alert: When top officials have to start saying in an agencyโ€™s defense โ€œno, no, no, thatโ€™s a totally legitimate law enforcement agency,โ€ they have already lost and it is, in fact, no longer a legitimate law enforcement agency.

For the last week, the conversation about Minneapolis has moved on while we've been seeing as much ICE activity as ever.

I've had people from out of state say, "I thought things were getting better," and "I heard agents left."

We'll see. Don't stop listening to people on the ground here.

Remember, research is important, guys:

Once MatPat made a video for For Honor,
And declared that vikings had no good equipment bc they're from a frozen tundra-
Knights had no armor & horses bc they're too expensive
but Samurais got both armor & horse(& bow)

And called ppl salty when called out.

btw, do fans of Hiro Mashima's manga(like #FairyTail, #EdensZero & #DeadRock) still try to downplay all the fanservice and go all whataboutism-
Or do they finally accept how fanservicey Hiro's work is?

Like, there's nothing wrong about liking horny stuff.
I can respect that.

I wonder if Erza Scarlet from #FairyTail would be actually hated by whiny grifters for being one of the strongest characters in the manga, if she didn't end up naked like every 10 chapters with tits as big as melons.

I wonder if at #Marvel there are pins at the walls for the writers of #Spiderman, which emphasize that Peter cannot be happily married to MJ, an that his deal with the devil shouldn't be undone.

Because it feels like Marvel loves to torture both Spiderman and his fans in these regards.

I love how popular Lady Dimitrescu is with women-
To such a degree that most fanfics on Aoยณ involving her are not only f/f, but also about her and a female reader-insert.
Go lesbians!

Weird thing how both #TheSimpsons & #SouthPark started as those fresh and bold series pushing boundaries back in the day, pretty much became the new status quo over time.
