It's time for people to admit that #FinalFantasyVIII is a good game (although it is fundamentally broken down to a conceptual level).

WARREN: If 700,000 Americans lose their jobs because of these tariffs, will the Trump administration suspend these tariffs? GREER: That's not going to happen WARREN: I take that as a no

If you're rightfully pissed about tariffs raising prices and impacting the game industry (and soooo much more), here's a reminder that there's national peaceful protests happening this Saturday. Look up details in your area. 👍

Finally got around to pointing my domain to my portfolio page. It's not much. I need to work on it more, and I also need to make it more responsive for mobile than it currently is.

Happy 10th anniversary to the best game of all time (Bloodborne). I remember when that first 'Project Beast' trailer leaked online. On launch night, I stayed over at a friend's place since we were all playing the game up late. I slept on the couch, but didn't sleep well at all. (1/2...)

Sometime around 2 PM, after a long Bloodborne/coffee sesh, I felt so horrible that I tried to go to sleep on my friends bed. Well, I couldn't. At this rate, I had to call my Mom to pick me up and take my home. I even called into work (for the next day), saying I had the flu (lol). (5/6...)

I ended up missing a couple of days of work. And that's how my Bloodborne launch went. The 8-10 cups of coffee was absolutely worth it. Happy 10th anniversary, #Bloodborne! And happy 10th anniversary to 21 year old me dying off of coffee and severe sleep deprivation!

So, like the dumb 21 year old I was, I decided that I would get up to play Bloodborne (rather than trying to get more sleep). I had a horrible headache, my eyes were burning, and I didn't feel rested. So, I began drinking coffee. And I didn't stop. I had somewhere to 8-10 cups of coffee. (3/4...)

I had never felt so sick in my life. As I was playing Bloodborne and refilling my coffee, my friend and I were laughing and sort of mind blown at how much coffee I was drinking. Usually, I'd only drink 1 or 2 cups a day. 4/5...)

At most, I probably got three or four hours of sleep. Suddenly, my friend gets up around 7 AM, and he excitedly starts playing Bloodborne. So thus, I get up and start playing it on my ps4 as well. I can't express how beyond exhausted I felt. But, I needed to play Bloodborne. (2/3...)

The more I think of Final Fantasy VI, the more I realize why people consider it the best entry. However, if VI reduced it's cast from 14 to 8, it would have room for deeper character interaction. That is something that VII does better. I loved VI, but I do consider that a minor flaw. Top 5 FF.
