I completed WEWY ... while hanging out with the game's translator ... in Shibuya

I don't just play games, I live them

I love games that are really not too much more than spreadsheets with lots of fancy interface elements attached to them to both present calculated outputs and abstract the actual manner that inputs are run through formulae. Why can't MS let the Excel team make a video game? They'd rock at it.

Heh, not surprised this guy ain't an RPG fan... Most anti-RPG people tend to be from PAL regions I've noticed. Maybe it's b/c they're still bitter from getting fucked over by Square back in the SNES days?

"entirely misses the point"? I thought it was pretty spot on. not to mention pretty darn positive!

I'm growing this fundamental distaste for JRPGs even though I've never touched one and scared to do so. Might play FF13 for the nice looking girl.

Why would you be scared to play one? They don't bite.

Go play Etrian Odyssey, Tieno, that should scare you right off JRPGs for good

Only for men :flex
