I noticed you like RPGs. Soooo which one is your favorite, and why is it Persona 4?
Oh haha, well. . . this may come as a bit of blasphemy, but I haven't played Persona 4! In my defense, however, this was one of my favorite games to lay in bed and watch my partner play, so it's definitely on my top list. With a unique visual style, great soundtrack, memorable writing and characters (Kanji and Teddie were my favorites) and fun dungeons, it really has the whole package. As far as which one RPG I would say is my favorite, I'd have to go with FFX. It might be an anathema to purists of the genre, but growing up in a household where my parents felt that kind of thing was unhealthy for the growing mind, it was the first real JPRG I was able to experience so it will always hold a special place for me. I also spent a long time playing FFXI and more recently, FFXIV. There are some incredible psychologically immersive experiences that can come out of MMORPGs. I have to be honest, I also liked the Mass Effect series. It had its flaws, but the worlds and stories were just so detailed and the visual imagery was very satisfying for a sci-fi fan like myself. Outside of those, I love sandbox games; they are my true passion as far as video game genres go. I played every Sim City iteration for literally countless hours, starting at a very young age with the original, through 4, which I still play modded with some irregularity. I love Civilization V, and Minecraft is another game I play with frequency. I'm a moderator on a small whitelisted vanilla server which is fun as a creative outlet for my casual interest in architecture.
I've been playing dozens of hours of Torchlight II recently, and I've been replaying Fable for the first time since it came out. Loads of fun. eightbitsamurai and I both have Torchlight II, you should pick it up and join us for a game if you like dungeon crawlers!
I'll check it out and let you know what I think! Also have to mention to eightbit that I saw his opinions of Shadow of the Colossus, and Kleinbl00, you are so very wrong! Haha, I loved SotC and Ico. I think it's hard to judge and compare video games because they're such a diverse medium. It's like dumping youTube, TV and movies all together into one group and comparing them.
Hahahahahaha, no can of worms here, no sir! And by that I mean, Kb knows he's fucking wrong and to shut up about it or else. Being (slightly) more serious, my ideas of gaming have become very aligned with kleinbl00's as of late. Maybe it's because I'm jaded, or because I want people to take the medium more seriously, but eh. I'm in love with Dark Souls right now, though. You were wearing Soltaire's Armor, with a matching sword and shield. I was stuck in the Undead Parish's church, trying to find my way to the Blacksmith, with a conjurer pestering me and I, low on health, when you showed up. Like it was nothing, you cut the conjurer down and sped us on our way to the top of the tower. As the corpses of skeleton knights tumbled down the stairs while I followed behind you, I thought I was in love. But I wasn't. Not until you turned around, bowed, and gave me a +5 Lightning Longsword with a base damage of 200. We reached the roof, and defeated the two gargoyle statues in less than 15 seconds. And just like that, you disappeared.
I don't know who you were, ANGELOX24, but know that you will be in my heart forever. -Dark Souls Missed Connections But yes, let us do the Torchlight II.I was wearing a reinforced +2 Fang Boar Helm, a Kite Shield, and a Great Axe.
