My wife and I both played My Life as a King a lot and we both loved it. It gets really grindy and RNG-based in the late game and it just kinda stopped being fun for me. Then there's the building position optimization which just isn't worth the time and effort after a while. I recommend playing it until you get sick of it. It's a really good time.

So breaking FF8 is hilarious so far. I only fight bosses and they do no damage and I slurp 100 of everything out of them and then flatten them. The story, uh, exists, I guess. It's nice to be able to just coast through everything and see the story without huge gaps in between filled with grinding and poo poo.

This is the first major RPG I've intentionally broken on the first playthrough. 99% of the time I play them straight as intended but I've heard so many bad things about FF8 that I wanted to give breaking it a try and yeah it's good times. Sue me.

Speaking of characters, I knew very little about the FF8 characters before starting it and Rinoa being a Manic Pixie Dream Girl was kinda jarring and dumb but also funny just because of the surprise factor. And of course she is because Squall is a shithead who "probably just needs inspiration" and someone to look past/ignore his awful bullshit. The way Quistis puts up with his poo poo and does NOT tell him to gently caress right off after the "I don't want to carry others' burdens" line was lovely writing. Selphie is the only character I don't hate so far.

Barudak posted:Selphie is the games actual Manic Pixie Dream Girl though? She doesn't fawn all over Squall so she really isn't in the traditional sense. MPDG is always the magical inspiration the dark brooding man needs to get past his issues. It's bad. Selphie is just cute and fun and relatively care free.

FactsAreUseless posted:I really like Balthier and Fran's relationship. It's all backstory but they genuinely seem like a couple who love each other and have been together a long time and are comfortable together. It's the most adult and mature relationship in the series. I unironically agree. Barudak posted:I mean, my point is Rhinoa isnt that either and the MPDG is not for a brooding man, its for an authors self insert aka a dull, professional man. Uhhhhh... quote:Squall is also not brooding so much as a child soldier who lacks healthy emotional coping mechanisms due to being, you know, a child soldier. I get what they were trying to do with him and it's my understanding that English localization changed his character somewhat but ... whatever. He's insufferable.

I like the idea of FF2 but I stopped playing after I insta-killed one of the overpowered guards in the Empire occupied city and, unlike every other RPG ever, my entire party did not level up like crazy.
