Some family stuff kept me busy this week, and I didn't really play anything. Hopefully things will get sorted this week, will get back to normal routine then.

Just played some Remnant: From the Ashes, I am near the end. Will probably finish it this week. It's not a perfect game, but I am loving it.

What about all of you? What have you been playing

VI is wonderful. One really good note I heard from an analysis video was the presentation of VI feels and looks more like a play. A diorama playing out in front of you. So the dialogue and reactions is all based around this idea and setting. Because modern ff or most games in fact are told through a more cinematic lens and linear storytelling. This note might help you enjoy the story more I hope.

Yeah! By "finally," I mean that it's living up to the 30 years of hype haha. I'm playing the pixel remaster on Switch so it has actual vocals and HD-2D art style for the Opera scene. Definitely helps promote the stage play presentation and I enjoyed both versions when I watched the original SNES scene afterward.

FWIW I "liked" IV but was overall disappointed with it when I played it back in 2020 (my first FFs were 7 & 10 when I got my PS2 in 2001). Having a much different experience now with VI.
