I'm tired.
I went through four 30 – 50 hours long games especially for Azure.
For each game except FC and The 3rd, a lot of stuff triggered me as hell and I was coping about Azure fixing them but it did not happen.
Why are the games paddled with useless stuff story-wisely?
Why do the games abuse of the «someone controls somebody who are themselves manipulated by another person»?
Why do I have to go through a lot of dungeons that have NO reasons whatsoever to exist except grinding?
Why is the narrative outline so repetitive (Even though Azure made it a bit better)?
Why are all the villains just random evil RPG characters (Except for Richard)?
Why do the games always ruin everything they builded up particularly the political stuff just for the sake of throwing plotwists at you and be like «Haahahaha lol I was the villain all along had a plan to gain an immense power to do/for [Insert random stupid motivation(s)]»
The only good thing at the end are the main characters that mostly are rather well written as well as the very fun and dynamic gameplay.
I'm pausing the game for now and will come back some time for the sake of finishing it, but right now I'm angry and saddened by the wasted potential that Trails is.

Final Fantasy VII

Pretty fun 3D platformer! I've been excited for this ever since it was announced and I'm happy to say it met expectations well! Movement and level design is very fun and it feels good to master each stage to the best of your ability while maintaining a high combo count. I feel like this game starts to lose its stride by the end though. Worlds get really short suddenly with no real fanfare to completing one. I feel like this game needed more time in the oven but I'm overall still happy with what the end product ended up being.
I'm going to say a little to avoid saying a lot... What a beautiful send up to an entire era of the series.
At first I was overwhelmed at the sheer amount of things you could do but taking it all at my own pace was worth it. Not since Metal Gear Solid 4's last cutscenes have I felt such emotion from a videogame.

I don't need screenshots. I don't need demos. I don't need footage. I don't need a release date. I don't need a summary. I don't need any kind of information. I already know this game is the rawest game to ever drop this decade from the trailer alone.
