People are supposed to be much much better than they are now.

We are fighting the final boss and we havent even got Cura.

Final Fantasy Villains are all about salvation through extermination - to relieve a lifetime of suffering. It sounded mad at first but now it takes total and complete sense.

Games today take longer to make than ever before - so why are they all inferior to the ones churned out year after year in the 1990s?

And If you didn't know

"The name Esuna (エスナ) in Final Fantasy and related games derives from Japanese words for "Eternal Status Cure," combining Eikyū (Eternal), Sutētasu (Status), and Naoshi/Nao (Cure/Heal), essentially meaning "Eternal Status Cure,"

News is called News because it stands for North East West South.

So 'news' from all over, far and wide.

Garak was right about The Boy Who Cried Wolf. The lesson from it being that you should never tell the same lie twice.

I am not 'verifying' anything by handing over my personal data.

This is not happening. Goodbye Blue Sky as Pink Floyd sang.
December 16, 2025 at 3:27 PM
Yeah I won't ever be doing this, BlueSky

You are not welcoming, you are being intrusive

Now i can't remove a notification permanently?

@wearereach.bsky.social - I'm a really big fan of your YouTube channel but i just checked and i seem to be blocked from chat and I've been talking without knowing i was blocked. Please could you unblock my account as i have no idea what I'm supposed to have done. Nothing

I absolutely won't be giving you my data for the excuse of verifying my age. This whole thing is abusive.
December 16, 2025 at 2:54 PM
Why do I now have a notification I can't get rid of in the 'chat' section?

I am not 'verifying' anything ... I am an adult I dn't care about adult content. Just remove the damn notification.

"You must complete age assurance in order to access this screen.
Due to laws in your region, certain features on Bluesky are currently restricted until you're able to verify you're an adult."

No they are not laws. None of this is actually 'lawful' ....

In Final Fantasy 8 the moon was full of monsters, and formed a giant eye shape. Meanwhile, a crystal pillar on 'earth' drew the monsters towards it in a giant stream of monsters (called the lunar cry) which poured from the heavens...

Still more convincing than the moon landing.

The failure of 2001s FINAL FANTASY THE SPIRITS WITHIN in the West is because audiences weren't (and aren't) prepared to try something new. It was such a long time ago to be trying something so ambitious and it's never been attempted again. It was just too innovative for them.

Now I'm reminded of Final fantasy XIII when they achieve their 'Focus' and turn to crystal.

Final Fantasy's neoclassical city on the sea.

"The primary inspiration for the city on the sea called Altissia in Final Fantasy XV is widely understood to be Venice, Italy."

I knew it... but it's all plausible stuff that the ancient world could have built.

The world in Final Fantasy X was called 'Spira' - and it is all about the cycle of destruction and creation. It was about a papacy that outlawed technology but whom secretly worshipped it behind the scenes. It was a facet of reality, more profound than it has any right to be.

'Final Fantasy' told us about the airships more than any other title out there. In movie or game - nothing has featured airships more prominently. Nothing.

Sephirot - The main villain in Final Fantasy VII who summons a calamity to undo the world.

Cloudflare - sounds like something from FINAL FANTASY VII

Life is very much like a modern videogame where you have to unlock certain achievements, only you don't get a flashing 'achievement unlocked' sign appearing in real life. You and you alone have to recognise when you've achieved something.

Why is every fantasy videogame based on a true story?

FF7 a true story about corporate corruption/the hidden power of the ancients/ and a calamity from the sky ...

It's just earths history.

Videogame characters used to have girlfriends, then they gradually phased them out...
Bubble Bobble dragons have girlfriends. Superfrog rescued his blonde girl then kissed her and she turned into a frog - to his disappointment.
Chuck Rock had to fend off Gary Gritter, the pervert.

In the 'Breath of Fire' videogame universe by Camcom, 'chrysm' is the fossilized remains of living beings, filled with magical power and is sought as a prized energy source for daily life.

Basically a true story then.
