Super boring in practically every regard, especially when it comes to the cardboard cutout anime characters. Honestly, at this point, it might be time to retire the immortal corpse that is Final Fantasy.

Come on, it's in the title.

The game is fun for a singleplayer MMO, to the point I platinumed it, but as a Dragon Age game, I can't help but be disappointed with it. Dragon Age II, for all its faults, set up an interesting political conflict between the mages and the templars. I waited years to see it play out in III, and what I was given was absolute trash. It gets wrapped up by the end of the first act with a choice that amounts to little more than an altered finale to the act. Instead of an interrogation of one of the most interesting and complicated factional conflicts in RPGs, itself wonderfully built up over two games, we get a boring power-fantasy where the player becomes God and faces off against an antagonist with the charisma of a toilet paper rack. So, whenever I think of Inquisition, I think more about what it could have been, instead of the serviceable grindfest that we got. Truly tragic.
I played this a few years ago and fell through the floor of the bank elevator. I hadn't been spamming manual saves, so my most recent save that wasn't bugged was many hours behind. So, I abandoned this lackluster follow-up.
This was my first Metal Gear Solid, what made the franchise one of my favorites, and it's the one that's 50% fan service. Utterly confusing.

I so very much wanted to disagree with detractors when I finally got my hands on this, and, well, this game ain't good, chiefs. It's not awful or anything, and it's a competent game, but it cuts so much from the original while replacing it with mostly boring action set pieces as to make me sad knowing that this is the game today's gamers are going to remember. It's far too short, the Nemesis is a joke who can't pierce Jill's plot armor, and the third-person gameplay from RE 2 Remake doesn't translate all that well to the higher action focus. I beat this game twice, once normally and a second time as a speed run, and both times it angered me more than any other entry in the franchise. Without spoiling the game, I absolutely abhor the third fight Nemesis and consider it one of the, if not the worst, boss fight in any of the games. This game's still worth playing if you can get it for cheap, but don't go out of your way to play one of the weaker entries in the series.
I have beaten this game more times than a human being can feasibly count. Johnson Nash's every line of dialog is etched into my brain as if his words were that of God himself.
Ugh! All this did was make me want Elden Ring more! This is the most repetitive game ever and is only held up by the fact that I hate the rest of the franchise. I couldn't even bring myself to suffer through it all.
Still better than God Hand.

My first Mario Party. It's really fun with friends, but four boards is unacceptably few.

This was my first Pokemon game and I couldn't stop playing once I started. I now understand the series' popularity.

Oh my lord, I cannot adequately explain my hatred of this game's Twitch streaming antagonists.
