Hearing that Tron Ares is coming in $10-20M under what Tron: Legacy did is just proof that they shouldn't have made a movie without Bruce Boxleitner. Who the fuck wants Tron without Trong??? It's mfing his movie!

Maybe if we all beat our friends and relatives with pipe wrenches before they go see movies with Jared Leto they will finally stop putting him in movies.

I probably prefer the PS1 script. But I'm not particularly precious about FFT.

The writing is truly god awful.

The idea that we need a computer to churn out endless fantasy garbage for nerds is an insult to the human dignity of Brandon Sanderson and Michael Christopher Koji Fox.

"What if a computer could produce 500 hours of it though"

Homie, what do you think they pay Michael Christopher Koji Fox to do?

the truest narrative of a game is what you do in the game. some things you do in dark souls 1: rest at bonfires. level up at bonfires. refill estus at bonfires. burn humanity to kindle bonfires. from this you can see the utility of fire and the age of fire's function for humanity.

The real question is:

Which game's writing will drive Dia more insane...

Unicorn Overlord

or

Final Fantasy XIV: Stormblood

Let's play to find out!

The number of fights I've had over Stormblood...

I'm hoping there's a significant ramp up, because right now I'm on the hardest setting they allow you before beating it, and even the "this is a wall until you do another side quest" mission was a complete pushover.

Gamers: The writing is bad.

Me, someone who reads real books: Oh so it's like Final Fantasy 12. Okay.

Me, playing the bad writing game: Fuck me this is unimaginable.

Gamers: Final Fantasy 12 is good wtf
dialacina.com
It's truly unreal how bad this is.
dialacina.com
Which sucks because the game is really good to play...

But Jesus... This is why the gamers are so wild Final Fantasy Tactics' writing. It's bad out here!

"this uncorruptible person would never fall in with a being of pure evil! I have to go and see them and ask them why"

"Don't worry bro after the fight I'll wave my hand and they'll be fine, they just have EVIL AMNESIA"

Unicorn Overlord decided that it's big take on empire and liberation would be "what if the evil generals were actually magically corrupted but the one true king had a special magic ring for the divine right ruler thar could make them good and pure again?"
