Fine. I’ll do it myself.
Oh, I think you mean final fantasy 6! Lol
I’m about to play the new retranslation once I finish with 7.
I’m just about done with 7 again. Hadn’t played it since the 90"s. Still pretty good.
Spoiler
I’m now fluffing my team up like mad so I can defeat Emerald amd Ruby. After that it’s just an easy endgame fight with sephiroth, so I’m really close to almost done.
I have actual never finished it. I’d get close to the end of disk 1 and then life would catch up.
You need a good amount of life not getting in the way for it. Thats for sure. How far are you this time?
Just past where disk 1 ends, 40 hours. I’m running a slightly modded PC version on Linux just for fixes.
I’ve been playing on my steam deck with several 7th heaven mods and it’s been great. Made the game look a lot nicer than the original. Been a great batch of nostalgia for me. I had no spoilers for myself when I first played it. What happened towards the end of disc one was probably the biggest gut punch in a game I’ve ever experienced.
My previous play was 7th heaven. This one is reunion. I prefer the 7th heaven mods.
End of disk 1 is a huge blow. The worst part was that it seems like you were fine at first.
stop trying to find someone who likes what you like and hates what you hate. try to find someone who you enjoy anyway and treats you well.
To a point yes but having nothing in common is tiring really.
Sometimes it’s better to have different tastes. My ex and I liked the opposite flavors of gummy bears. It was so convenient. lol
Your ex you said? #joking
Yeah, but the end wasn’t gummy bear related. lol
Sometimes the universe has other plans.
I say this as someone who never stopped looking until I found a gaming buddy in a partner. When every night is a date, lan party, and sleepover all at once… I certainly can’t tell you what’s important to you, just never settle.
You can’t really decide what others want in life.
I feel like gaming is something you both want to have in common if either of you really enjoy it. Otherwise it seems like it usually turns into a problem.
Me too
My brother and I split the SNES when it came out (presumably with money our parents gave us because we were just kids), but he got gifted Super Mario RPG. And he held that shit over my head, and we didn’t get a long, and he never let me play, and so it kinda solidified itself as my favorite game of all time, because it had this forbidden nature for me.
Putting all that aside, it was just a well made game, great pacing, great mechanics. I got the Switch version and I’m hoping to get my kids into it, but it’s hard to compete with the looks of modern games, especially since my kids are young.
My copy did something weird and wouldn’t let me get one particular hidden chest after the first playthrough. Heartbreaking.
Is it the one in the castle you have to ride on a Toad’s head to get? That one’s missable.
Yeah, that one’s tricky, but there’s also a later one that requires you to jump to reveal a hidden platform but the platform wouldn’t reveal itself when I jumped into it, even though I got it the first run and could see Mario bump into it in air so I knew I had the right spot.
I can only assume there was some weirdly specific glitch or damage 🤷♂️
That sounds like the entrance to the casino. That one’s tricky, but I doubt it’s messed up on your cartridge.
Its the second Land’s End one here:

For some reason the hidden platform just won’t activate anymore. It’s entirely possible I’m just missing some detail but like I said, worked fine the first time.
Both have great taste!
And are less filling!
Love seeing Terranigma here. Such a great hidden gem. If you’re a fan of Secret of Evermore or Illusion of Gaia, check it out.
Have I got this straight in my head:
Illusion of Gaia was the second in a trilogy: Soul Blazer, Illusion of Gaia and a third one that wasn’t released in North America. And was that third one Terranigma or a different game?
Followed by Granstream Saga.
Holy shit I played the fuck out of this game as a kid. Completely forgot it existed until just now. I wonder how badly it’s aged
I’ve never played it, but judging by videos of gameplay, pretty badly. Most 3D games from that era have.
Sounds right to me. Thanks for reminding me about my abandoned Soul Blazer playthrough 😬.
Edit: Shout out to Enix being awesome before the merger.
Soul Blazer is a melancholy game. You start it up and the world has been emptied of beings, throughout the game you restore beings to existence, and yet it doesn’t cheer up.
It was Terranigma.
So they meet in the middle at Actraiser?
Excellent game.
One of my favorites. I replay it every few years when I think about it again.
Too bad about the sequels…
Great fuckin OST too
I have not heard that name in a long time. … Long time.
I still whistle the music every so often.
No Plok? They both suck.
Holy shit I haven’t thought about that game in forever! It was hard AF as I recall.
Me too.
You fool! Those are just NES games!
Mega man X soundtrack lives rent free in my head, along with the first scene that crushed me as a child.
I don’t see a problem here, I’ve played all those games and every single one is a gem
They have awesome games to show each other!
ok but where’s super metroid?
No Earthbound?
I’m about to commit blasphemy:
Y’all can keep the Castlevania. I’ll take the rest.
Simon is on his way to your castle as we speak.
Sorry Simon, but the princess is in another castle.
Aria’s the best one, anyway
Suddenly surrounded by spears, pitchforks and one torch
I mean uh, um,… “What is a man!?”
spears lower
I don’t disagree with you. Symphony of the Night is exceptional but Aria and Dawn are so, so good.
Girl wins.
Soundtrack to Secret of Mana makes me cry evertim
