I really want to play a Final Fantasy game at some point, but always seem to find something else play. Same thing goes for Dragon Quest games. I could ask everyone here which game from each series you recommend, but would I actually play it? Probably not. 😔
As for a single game I own, I will probably never play Disgaea 5. It's been so long since I bought it.
When I finish Fire Emblem Engage, I'll play FF7.
I feel like you need to just part it out, when i watched king of the hill in its entirety, i just did it one episode a day. I don't really like to watch tv shows and this is how I was able to get through it.
That's a good idea. I'm assuming I should just play the original and not follow the remakes?
I really love Final Fantasy 7. What I think is play the original first, try to keep in mind the year that they made the game, then play the remake.
The remake is half fan-service and half commentary and it doesn't make total sense without having played the original in my opinion. I'm not sure if it is even a good game, I liked it, but it's strange as it has merit on a different dimension outside good and bad video game. Much like how the last two episodes of Evangelion are bad anime but are great within context/meta.
Ignore Crisis Core and Dirge of Cerberus, they provide no meaningful insight or lore to the game in my opinion. At worse they destroy the good world building set up by the original game.
The movie Advent Children is harmless in my opinion, it's stupid but sometimes realistically depicts what the characters may be feeling after the events of the game.
Sounds good! I'll post about it when I eventually play it. Older games don't bother me.
Hows engage? it looks like slop
I like it a lot so far (10 hours in). They removed weapon durability which is I don't like, but everything else feels good.
Weapon durability kind of made the games intimidating to me, felt arbitrary, why do you like it?
It was an interesting resource to consider and manage. It made it so I had be smart about repairs and upgrades (especially late game). Also stopped me from just spamming special weapons all game.
