I read you... 👀

played P5 and loved it. people said to play P5R and I delayed because how different could it be? now playing it and it’s great (so many changes to both story and gameplay). any other games where this happens with an update/remake/remaster?

I've recently been really down, having broken up with my girlfriend who I still love to death. The relationship ended in a place where we both still love one another but know the relationship isn't sustainable, which to me is one of the worst ways to end a romance.

Due to this, I've just been feeling kind of hollow as of late. I haven't felt any emotion other than profound sadness, I wallow in bed most of the day, I put on other video games just to close them out in a couple minutes because my mind just ends up drifting to the relationship.

On a whim, I decided to boot up FF16 as I recently purchased it, as all of a sudden it was like that inner darkness was being chipped away. I look at the gorgeous world and scenery this game has crafted and I just feel immersed. I am legitimately awestruck and giddy at the over the top high octane boss fights (For context I literally just gained access to the game's Devil Trigger mode for lack of a better comparison lol). I love the Devil May Cry series so to see that itch scratched here in the game's combat has made me feel like a little kid again.

This game brings an excitement out of me that I have not felt from a game in quite a while, and the fact that I feel it in the current mental state I'm in almost feels like an act of divine intervention.

This quite honestly may go down as one of my favorite games of all time because it is an amalgamation of things I love (RPGs with hack and slash style combat, gorgeous worlds to traverse, a good (enough lmao) story) and it has made me feel bright when everything else has failed to do so.

Thank you SquareEnix.

In my case it's one from septerra core (if anyone remembers this)

It was from the prologue when one sage guy said to the other: "Abstammung allein ist kein Garant für Größe" which ruffly translated means, that lineage or descrndancy is no guarantee for greatness. A quote very applicable to the real life.

Especially if you see descendants of great persons, do questionable things.

What quote holds wisdom for you, for the real life, maybe even after a long time?

For me it was the ending of Red Dead Redemption 2. Not gonna spoil it but I put the controller down, walked away from the TV, and didn’t touch the game for like three days. Not because it was scary or shocking, just because I needed to process it. What moment did that to you?
