So FF7. Thats the topic here. Growing up as a young adult when it came out I was like woah from Bill & Ted, blown away by what was presented to me. However, I never really played that much. Like many others out there I had "stepped" out of the video game world for a while (although would be sucked back in later by the likes of FF8 and CSOTN) but I watched my roommate and girlfriends brother play through it within weeks of each other. Its a great game. Riddled with bugs, flaws, twists, turns, and most importantly something pressingly urgent to attend too. Here's the deal. FF7 is a should play. Not the greatest ever, BUT the one that made the greatest splash. Its the game that shattered the US RPG barrier. So many games before made with the purpose of schooling westerners on RPGs (not in the PC world though) Dragon Warrior a la Nintendo Power, Mystic Quest, and all those before FF7 failed to reach the broad audience of today. |

This post was better, it was easier to read. @eaglelord9814 might be a new poster I know when I first started posting 10 years ago on the internet. My own posts were vary similar. The more a person blogs the more experience they have. And they then learn and get better with time. |

The last post you made was also equally as difficult to read, and came across as non-nonsensical. You need spaces and proper formatting to make it easier for others to view. Perhaps it might be easier to write a single sentence at a time, carefully look it over and then type another. Also, look closely at how other people here are typing. If it helps, check out some review sites and look at how they are posting. --- End quote --- Your exaggerating a bit in my humble opinion. --- End quote --- That's cool. Everyone's got an opinion and they're entitled to it. Moving on, it requires extra effort to decipher and read what was posted here, including a topic posted in a previous thread. Yes, it is difficult to understand what he is talking about. If I personally took "your exaggerating" as you believed I have ownership of a representation of something large instead of a contraction, would you tell me that I didn't? If I don't necessarily care for the taste of green eggs and ham, are you going to tell me that no, I do instead? Silly me! Can you also tell me that I DO know the material for the N1 Japanese Language Proficiency Test, and I should pass with flying colors? --- End quote --- relax I personally have a pretty rough time seeking parts of his review that are actually hard to understand. I really can't find anything if i'm honest. His grammar ain't perfect and it's a bit messy. Sure on an actual review site or an exam it's not going work obviously, But at the very end of the day his points are pretty clear even if it's not written perfectly. But again that's just my opinion doesn't apply to everyone. --- End quote --- I'm good dude. But sure, let's relax. Take a seat and tell me again what I understand and don't. --- Quote from: shadowzero on July 15, 2020, 06:22:07 pm ---So FF7. Thats the topic here.

It's the type of game that isn't the best ever, but it did obviously catch on. I think the timing and platform of release also had a lot to do with it. Final Fantasy was synonymous with Nintendo for a long time, but swapping to CDs on the shiny new Playstation and away from pixel graphics must have caught a lot of attention as well. |

But hey, I digress... |
