CarrionCrow: Note to self - don't read user scores on Metacritic. Hell, avoid reading most if not all of the "established journalists"' opinions as well.
That will only lead to yet another bout of wanting to scream at the monitor....

Stupid godsdamned people. It's Final Fantasy 3. It's an 8-bit Nintendo game. It's also quite probably the hardest Final Fantasy game ever made.
It's going to hurt you. That's a given. So stop whining about how unfair and mean it is, already.
The term "Nintendo hard" exists for a reason.

adaliabooks: Lol. I have to say, while I found FF3 hard I didn't find it that hard. Not like most NES games.. admittedly it was the 3d DS remake I played, but I don't think they changed much for it.
I don't think so either. To me it just sounds challenging, which is a GOOD thing in this world of "let's hold the player's hand and treat them like imbeciles"-style game design.
Also, in about 10 minutes I'll be able to see just how hard it truly is.

j0ekerr: Two words: Silver Surfer.

It will make you rage. And if you are a fan of Silver Surfer (like moi), you will only RAGE HARDER!

He's supposed to be as powerful as Thor, if not more, he can take a direct hit from a star destroyer's turbo-laser batteries as if it were a loud slap. And you're telling me that he DIES if he so much as BRUSHES against the CEILING?!
Oh gods, I think I actually played that once....

adaliabooks: Well, I think they are usually wild wood pigeons. But yeah, not city pigeons. Wouldn't eat one of them if you paid me (well... depends how much you paid me... <_< >_>)

j0ekerr: You'd be risking a metric ton of diseases. The only point at whic a city pigeon would be considered safe would be, when it's been reduced to a blackened lump of charcoal.

I remember eating a bunch of fried little birds... They were... crunchy would be the best description, calling them not tasty would be an understatement. But it's considered a delicacy. To eat a whole fried bird, small enough to swallow in one bite.

Just one of the many reasons I hate people.

+++++++++++++++++++++++++
I find myself at an existential crisis.

I don't know wether to play a game or watch porn.

What should I do fellow GOGers?
Controller or joystick, that's a tough one. ;)

AgentBirdnest: Couldn't agree more. I never disliked a game (except for Lester the Unlikely) until I started reading reviews and looking at scores. Once I did, I started disliking games. A game would get good reviews, so I'd try it, and I'd be massively disappointed.

I swore to stop reading reviews and scores at the beginning of this year, and I haven't disliked a game since.

(However, I do like to browse the Games Finished in 2014 thread. I've found that it generally has more level-headed opinions than any other place I've seen.)
Holy shit....Lester the Unlikely....I hadn't thought about that game in roughly 20 years....

Additional - If you want an example of massive incongruity, I present to you what I can see out my window - a godsdamned sandstorm. No snow, no rain, no clouds, just grit for your face, eyes, nose and mouth.

I remember being quite surprised that modern reviewers complained about getting lost in Duke Nukem 3D. :/

Right, like Dark Souls 2.

Seriously, the ironclad soldiers are cheap.

Although I think I have it now, stay close to them and to the side, DON'T get behind them though.

The problem is when there's more than one of ANYTHING.

Those four hollow soldiers with longswords in the ballista room are so goddamn annoying.

Still looking at Dark Souls 1 here. Had a person tell me they bought it, played it for 10 minutes, then drove back to the store and returned it.
I'm going to kick the shit out of that game if for no other reason than to laugh about the person who did that.

Watching it from behind a thick insulated glass.

It's particulary frustrating as well as humbling for me.

I was on my fifth run of DS1 and I was strolling around like a black knight armoured GOD. With my huge greatsword +15 and my ring of favour. Kicking the shit out of everyone, except the titanite demons, those are scary man.

Now that I'm forced to start from zero and with NO prior knowledge of what to do or how to, I'm getting my ass handed to me practically by the minute. I've actually spent at least 2 hours wandering about, not knowing what to do after finishind the forest of giants, because I didn't see the bloody lever to Heide's flame tower.

Hey... I'm poor, if someone was going to pay me a lot of money to do it, I'd do it... I'm not proud :P

I'd much rather eat the proper thing though...

Just think. In another 20 years, all the "professional" reviewers will have to worry about brain hemorrhages if they deal with anything more complex than Final Fantasy 13-style utter linearity.

Pretty bored at the moment... family has a WiiU and we wanted to play a new party game my mum bought... but now there needs to be a system update and then a software update before we can play. It is Christmas why can't it just work ;-P
