I've seen a lot of people recently give it praise. I think 4, 9, and 12 all seem to be looked back at far better than their original reception.

Mine was final fantasy 12. I played that game so hard, really enjoyed it and if was released in the time of trophies I would have platinumed it. Even did the grinding for Gilgamesh to spawn for a sword or something. But I was hated at the time.

Now everyone is saying it was one of the best and I was proved right all along.

Sure the story was star wars and the main character wasn't, but the combat system was really fun, way better than 13.

Both are great, but the drastically changed a lot in the 2nd. In UK they even called the sequel 'Dark Chronicle' rather than 'Dark Cloud 2'.

At least the 2nd one removed the system where you could permanently lose your best weapons if you forgot to repair in time, they just become unusable.

Yes it's miserable, and I'm not sure if I'm doing anything at all, but turning away seems worse.

That's just a list of games that used to be good and now suck.

ADHD and cigarettes pair so nicely. 3 mins of turning off the world every hour is why I'm not sure I'll ever be able to quit. Being a single unit item is why things like vaping never worked for me either. I had a small amount of luck with cans of fizzy drinks, but I'd need an insane amount and 2 weeks off work with none of my usual triggers for a chance.

It's definitely pricey, a couple of reasons:

I believe the kits are still entirely made in the UK rather than Asia like so many things.

The quality and designs are arguably the best in the world with techniques far more advanced than most rivals can compete with.

This doesn't mean they don't get greedy and stick on a huge profit, I believe they heavily rely on staff who love the hobby to run their stores too and pay very poorly.

Can't wait to play it...in 2035 summer sale. Maybe I'll even get bored in under 2 hours and get the instant refund.

It's to help reduce smurfing in f2p games like the ones mentioned below. (Dota and cs)

It's good to have a constant in the current world, steam seems okay, I love what they're doing for Linux gamers, I think they should reduce their share by at least 5%,but they do a good service and seem competent.

Every issue I've had has been easily fixable with searching and following instructions. There's not been many issues, and I can do it anyone can.
