Let me tell you about a little thing called game reviews.
Jason is anime-tier.

So you're saying Jason is the best fighting game of the year tier.

22 hours into FFXV, only just now finished chapter 3. The slowest of burns.

Now if you want to talk about low tier.
Abigail is right there.

Rock eating is a fine hobby. I'm sure Brad will read emails on it at some point.
I'm almost certain it is a real thing.
Pica is a serious problem.

Welp nevermind. That is horrifying.
Abigail I want to help you. But I also want to raise your friendship level, so here's this rock.

Escape From NY is so good and LA is incredibly and laughably cheesy. I'm wearing this shirt today at work.
That's a sweet ass shirt.
It's cool because it kept building on the moment and it never overstayed it's welcome.
It is pretty amazing, indeed.

I am going to make it through this year if it kills me
haha. Drew is awesome.
Drew goes Band of Brothers on Brad
I never got into cosmetic items. Even in the last dying days of TF2, I went just with stuff I crafted, or random drops.

Worst thing is that this is a super old article. They really need to start mentioning that.
I'm telling you...Brad. Dota 2 7.00. 24h.
He's supposed to say "... was never good" all the time? What.

I could totally see Rez Infinite (in VR) being on Jeff's or Brad's personal lists.
I Platinumed it over the weekend. Take your time.

That's alright, I'm like 27 hours in and haven't been to Lestallum yet. Level 34 or so.
25h and I just finished chapter 13. Since one can continue after the story wraps up I'm ok with doing story quests mainly. I also hope they'll streamline the side quests down the road.

if you could go to an area and just say "give me all the hunts up to my current level" or literally any option other than 1 at a time, it becomes 10x better
How the fuck does this happen? I feel like I did everything that was doable and I just hit chapter 4 about six hours in (unless I imagined a chapter change where one wasn't).

Why? Like, what do you do? I made it 10 hours into it before I just was so bored I had to stop. Going back and forth between quest givers and the meaningless fetch quests or mundane hunts wore very thin, very quick.
I'm just kind of amazed that GAF loves to shit on DA:I but FFXV is like that but worse. I'm glad people like the game they got I guess. Maybe the backlash will start later.

There's a backlash in places. JJ from 8-4 has a good aul rant about the game on last weeks show.
I think the difference might be largely based off the fact FF fans are fairly desperate for a good game, especially one that has been in development for so long.
And the knowledge, from demos etc, of what the game was really going to be (having not played it, it, or at least the open world bit, is exactly what I expected it to be, going by the chatter).

Nah the FFXV honeymoon only lasted a few days before the backlash started.
Woah now, FFXV is pretty bad about the quests, but it sure as hell ain't worse than Inquisition.
Unless I'm mistaken, Inquisition DOES allow you to take all available quests at once, and do a circuitous route to complete them all.

Maybe not on paper, but I think the actual combat and world-building in DA:I are miles above FFXV's. If the combat was good I could overlook those things, but I really don't like it at all. I think it's bad.

Uh... That's the point in the game that I couldn't wait to end. I honestly think it's the worst part of the game for me.

Almost 40 side quests done with no fast travelling. The game is so damn relaxing with its world, characters, music, etc that I enjoy just talking to different characters for their quests, then relaxing with the drive, listening to the FF1+4 soundtracks while seeing the different environments I go by. Also helps with using the perks for gaining AP and EXP for long drives.
Also recently unlocked the portable MP3 player. Just wandering around the open world in places I haven't thoroughly explored yet with the FF1 or FF4 overworld music playing is connecting with me in a weirdly cool way.
