The best open worlds had little to no random encounters and the newer stuff can break the immersion more than helping it.

It isn’t fun when the npcs seriously can never wipe their fucking ass without you.

pistachio is a very underrated flavor of ice cream/pudding.

 

Pistachio flavored anything is so overrated right now, especially Dubai chocolate. Stupid ass tik tok bullshit.

Don’t take it from me because I’m a classless idiot, but maybe don’t have your big topical humor break be “Madea from the Madea movies NOT featured in the Epstein Files.”

Wow. Yeah. Retarded pop culture thing that has nothing to do with babies being raped and eaten.

I don't like waffles or pancakes that much anymore. It's too sweet for me in the morning. I think of it more as a dessert now, and I'd rather have something like pie or cake for dessert.

Even without syrup?

Kinda removes the point, no? I just prefer crepes with fruit and cream or dosas with chutneys.

I can't really say I agree or disagree with this statement. Both god-tier games.

Indeed.  My choice is very much nostalgia-tinged because it was the first RPG I really "got."  It's VERY simple, but it was the one that helped me understand JRPGs and the rest is history.  FF6 is still one of the all-time greats.

FFIV is the first RPG I ever played. :LithiumSmiley:

I’d played the first final fantasy, and the dragon warrior (quest) games, but they didn’t grab me like IV.

Sigh, since yall wont shut up, here's my long ass, no one asked me take. FF6 is indeed the better game on almost every front, but nothing will replace FF4 for core memories.

Having played the original and dragon warrior/quest, I knew i liked the whole RPG thing, but they were super generic....so i assumed all RPGs would be this way. I had also put my hands on hydelyde...which sucked the majorest of ass.

Then one day, after the advent of the SNES, i saw that bright red box at the video store. I saw the game in either NP, EGM or GP but didn't really expect our country little video store to get it... Assumed I'd have to get it from my friend Nicky like i did the others....but he dedicated himself to Sega in the 16 bit wars, so the rental gods smiled upon me.

The way the story unfolds, the fact that you are obviously the bad guy...but have regrets... the characters all having their own lives and personalities...the enemies having their own lives and personalities. The somber feeling of death...not just this dude lost all his hp and i need an inn....the finality of Tellah, his sacrifice....the fact you lose Yang just to find him living with fairies like 20 hours later, rydias growth, Cid being virtually unbreakable....Kain, betraying you so many times, going to the fkn moon...just everything about this made me think best game ever....FF6, while great... didn't do that.

That soundtrack....At the time, only Actraiser had blown me away the way the FF4 did. Every track seems so deliberate. I would just sit at a boss for 30 minutes listening to the track loop

It also comes with one of my shittiest memories. I got it on a Friday after school, so by Saturday i was locked in.  I was supposed to mow grass while my mom was at work....but dude, its "FF2"...i cant stop, i must make it to the end.... somehow.

My mom came in that night and said "you didnt mow the grass" and I somehow thought she'd understand "this is FF2, i have to finish this before Monday" and then she says "if you had just mowed the damn grass, i would have bought it for you" so now I'm like I'll do it tomorrow, but of course its too late now.

She's likely 100% full of shit....but I'll never know... I'll never know.

I finally got my own for like Christmas or my birthday or something but i kept that rental until like Wednesday before my mom realized i was quietly "forgetting" to put it next to her work stuff in the morning
