Same; I've probably spent countless $$ between WoW, SWTOR, and other MMOs too lol

Honestly, I should probably get back into playing MMOs again, but I haven't found much that isn't a) total trash or b) something I'm interested in. Like, I've tried Final Fantasy, but the game never clicked with me during my stint of playing it. Though, that could also be because I was/is never a huge Final Fantasy fan. After all, other than the MMO, the only FF game I've played is Tactics.

@Kuro

The weird thing about FF14 is how this is a perfectly reasonable opinion because the game absolutely takes a stupid long time to click (god help you if you play a lancer with your two buttons for like 40 levels) but everyone in the community has to always be like "No dude trust me stick with it it gets so good I promise just stick with it honest it's great" and it's like you don't have to be so desperate, not everyone's gonna like it, relax, it's fine.

I'm curious about New World but not curious enough to buy it because that game kind of fascinates me on the level of 'they literally tried making a PvP/Crafting focused MMO then had to go back and add PvE shit because PvE is the biggest appeal for the genre' and I can't imagine the end result worked out super great

(If only partly because, no single game is worth hundreds of dollars.)

@SleepingSilence

Meanwhile I've spent hundreds of dollars over time on FF14 and other MMOs

Wheeee

I think the only actual backlash is on the Fire Emblem characters specifically. (That just so happen to play far more similarly to each other, than most.)

@SleepingSilence

I mean sure in the way that Ryu and Ken play similarly but there's a reason people play, say, Lucina or Roy more than they do, like, Ike.

I never understood the sword character hate considering that apart from the obvious mirror characters, the sword characters are all pretty unique in how they play - as unique as a game with a smaller input list can be anyway. Like yeah, they have counters but it's not like Robin plays like Sephiroth plays like Hero plays like Corrin plays like Link plays like Shulk, etc.

Far Cry is a series where I wind up buying the game for like 15 bucks six months later in a sale, playing it for like 5 hours and then never touching it again which is also the story I have with Watch Dogs Legion except I keep telling myself I'll play that and even bought the expansion for it.

I make bad decisions a lot.

Thanks, Sakurai, very cool

Star Wars: Shattered Galaxy

I might re-tool one of my old republic era RP characters for this.

She was an iridonian zabrak mechanic/engineer who fixed swoop bikes and speeders for gangs but remained neutral in their constant gang wars. Spoke like a really bad cockney git, carried a broken blaster just for intimidation and a false sense of security, and was Force sensitive because why not.

Final Fantasy: The New Colonies of Eorzea

I am...tempted

BAYONETTA 3 IS FINALLY REAL I CAN FINALLY BE HAPPY

Deathloop fucks and proves that Arkane don't miss. I just wish that the game didn't handhold you through the perfect route once you figure it out, though I'm curious to see if it's possible to do the full kill run earlier if you know everything on a second save. Also, the invasion aspect is weighed super heavily in Colt's favor but it's fun all the same and really encourages you to think creatively instead of just being lame and snipe camping.
