I should just accept that being 5 hours into persona 5 at present means I'm probably never going to play it again :(

What I dont get CharlieFoxTrot is that you'll completely ignore anyone that challenges your statements or corrects you or says anything negative about something you've enjoyed but someone posts about Knack and within the hour you are there playing up the meme? Every single time. C'mon mate.

Not really? They changed up starcraft 2 with the latest "expansion" and its a faster paced game now. The original starcraft has an HD remaster coming out this month but outside of that its a fairly stagnant genre.

I can't stand anime and I hadn't really liked a jrpg for 20 years but god drat Persona 5 is just so charming.

The only thing I'm unsure about is when you knock dowm all your enemies which option to go for? So far I've recruited every persona that's new otherwise I ask for money since I've already got a surplus of items. Is that the best way to do things?

This whole Hellfire nonsense is a joke, anyone else remember when they were a kid and your friends would tell you about cool things in a game like the blue whale in ecco or the tanooki suit in mario or when castlevania had a whole new map with the upside down castle or when Tomb Raider had a T-rex. Remember how fun it was to hear about these interesting moments in games rather than react with anger because the sanctity of your experience has been tainted?

Final Fantasy XV is on sale. Did it turn out good or bad?

Its ok, the world and the characters and the sub quests are excellent but the concert system is confusing and unintuitive and brings it all down for me personally.

I bounced off it after 12 hours and am yet to go back but my friend that loves FF battered 100 hour into it in 2 months.

Edit. I meant combat system but I'm leaving that there as an FF8 tribute.

I remember specifically wishing around 2009/2010 that I could have one game that held my attention and never got boring since I felt most games just didn't have a long term (3 nights in a row or more) appeal to me and then I started playing dota so be careful what you wish for.

Is League more popular than Dota? I feel like I've been completely insulated from it since I played Dota back in the day and all the games media types that I follow, if they mention a moba, it's going to be Dota. So when I see anything about League I feel like the Mandela Effect is happening

League has more players overall and a far higher twitch presence but far smaller prize money.

Legacy of the Void is class, each of the 3 Starcraft 2 campaigns are well presented although the story is convoluted at the best of times.

Even the multiplayer is quite fun until you get sick of invisible dark templars or photon cannon rushes or widow mines in every game.

God bless starcraft pros on Twitch filling that urge every time I get tempted.

The amount of excellent videogames covering all styles and genres has been fantastic this year.

Jesus christ this is the worst decision. Why? Do you have so little respect for yourself that you're going to throw away 100+ hours of your semi-precious life? I agree that there's almost always a better way to be spending your time instead of gaming but it's what we all love to do, but there's so many better games out there that going back to FFXIII and its siblings is like slamming your hand in a drawer out of boredom. At least play something that's interestingly bad and not something you needed to be Stockholm syndrome'd into enjoying 7 years ago.

I gave up getting mad at poo poo like this, I just sorta clench my teeth and think to myself at least its not my time being used. Its tough though, being stuck at work for 40 hours a week thinking of all the games I'm trying to squeeze into my limited free hours and there's a bunch o cunts out there playing final fantasy games multiple times.
