The hipster opinion is just to think all final fantasy games are mediocre RPGs in general
And that Dirge of Cerberus is the best entry in the entire franchise, only matched by Chocobo Dungeon

Duh. HM is fucking killer.
Ok, the dumb girly shit in X-2 makes me think I'm gonna love it.
That sure is an opinion. I'm assuming you're counting all of the games and not just the 3D ones since you listed 6. You'd say 6, 13, and maybe 10? You'd leave 4, 7, and 9 off the table? Compared to 13, really?
Oh really? I had no idea, that is brand new information.
Good lord, technically the sun is still out when it's a cloudy day, but you don't correct people when they comment on the sun not being around because they fucking know it's still there, it goes without saying. So whether someone has a point or if they're right is completely irrelevant in that situation, they're just being shitty.

I actually like X-2. It has possibly the best Battle System of any of the Final Fantasy Games.

Tacitics is great fun, though the story and characters are pretty nothing.
Just play the FF7 motorcycle game and never play any other game in the series again.
I totally agree with that. The game has the best villain in the entire series. If you ignore the final final boss happened, then its a great game.
Unforuntately, I can't ignore it. I never finished the game because of it. I have 0 clue how it ends.

4 and 7 are boring. 9 has a terrible final final boss and I never beat it so I can't say if I should recommend it but people seem to like it enough.
13 is pretty ridiculous in its story and characters and seems to be a hate it or love it thing, but I enjoyed it fine and I love the battle system.

You can stop, but thank you, those are all really good.

It also helps that Rikku is best Final Fantasy Girl.
I know about Donkey Kong thanks to this show. I didn't even know that there was a video game back then. So this incarnation of the Dong is the most canon to me.

I thought it was most people thought that SMT was better than Persona, only the latter was more casual, thus making it more popular.

He dislikes the good ones and likes the bad ones. He has no remote claim to being right.
Yikes. I'd say it's 80% hate, 15% neutral, 5% like/love. I find it weird someone finds 4 and 7 boring, but not the hallways upon hallways of FF13s first 30-40 hours and then it's last 10 hours. I like the combat too, but I don't feel like it saves the game that much. FF7 Materia is cool, man.
This too. Except 6 and 10 aren't bad Aaron.

I'm of the opinion there are no bad Final Fantasies, the "worst" to me is just "decent with flaws"

FF6 is bad? This is news to me.
4 doesn't age well at all. Its very bare bones in all of its characteristics. Probably mind blowing for the time, but just a complete slog with good music now. 6 aged much better with its characters and story. 13's combat was really fun, but I agree that if you despise the characters and story, the first dozen hours are gonna be rough.
I don't like 7 at all, other than its soundtrack. Its a very ugly game now and Cloud is just aggravating to deal with.
You'd think that, but a good amount of persona fans haven't even touched an SMT game, let alone any persona game before 3.

When did I say they were? 6 is nearly my favorite of the series and 10 is near the top too.
Worst is 8 and then 13 I kinda like. All the others are great, except the first one, which I have not played.

Woke up 45 minutes before a dentist appointment at 10 AM, made it there on time, got my teeth cleaned, and then walked to campus and had lunch. Anything significant I missed in the last 12 hours?

Ok, I blame you. I'm addicted to the TWEWY OST again.

Man, One Piece pre-time skip was solid gold, through and through.
Also, I got around to watching Fast and Furious 5 &6!
Got damn these movies are good... I can't believe these sequels are so much better than their predecessors. I mean, Tokyo Drift is pretty damn good, but these movies are in another league.
Have to say, even with Rodriguez, I think 5 is better than 6, but they are both awesome action flicks and I'm super glad I got around to them.
Best moments,
5: The 'safe' sequence, the Rock/Deisel fight 6: The tank leap, All the fight sequences but Rodriguez's first one in particular

I honestly wouldn't rather know anyway. I still feel disgusted by the game for making that terrible design choice of having the worst final boss. Similar to NMH2, I never beat the final boss and I don't care how it ends.
Except 6. Which is the only FF game worth a damn.
This post if for my own reference of what I need to listen to.

Yeah yeah yeah! Best movies! 6 is better, though. You crazy.
Conglaturations. Everything. Jack did a thing, stories were told, we talked about food, we're in musicGaf/FinalFantasyGaf/LiamGaf, and a ton of other stuff.. oh, stuff got announced like dengeki bunko, so there's that.

I like Liam. I don't care about any of their arguments at all so his proclivity for semantics feels the same as any stance they have on anything.
Wish he'd talk about anime more, though.

Also just saw that Yakuza 4 is one of February's free PS+ games.
...and I've still not played through 2 and 3 yet. Plus I don't know if I can fit it on my PS4's harddrive without deleting all the games I got on it right now.

I had to uninstall W101 to fit it.
Why, Tidus, why?!
I got ishin, but I can't read japanese, so it might get rough.
I can understand, and sometimes speak it verbally, but that's all.
its probably cheaper than if Nintendo had put a big hard drive in the Wii U

You know I'm a huge Rodriguez fan, so I wouldn't say it lightly. I know 5 is a better movie. Fookin Diesel and Walker using a safe as a wrecking ball man!

He reminds me of when I was younger and had the same habit. He's just presenting opposite opinions to please a small number of viewers mainly.
Be careful with USBs. Ninty says not to use them since they can be corrupted moving data back and forth a lot.
I'd get an external drive.

God damn it, I want Second Chapter so badly.
I'm probably gonna wait for the final week, then buy 3 month subscription and go "mine, mine, mine, eww not mine" on the PS store
I'd agree it's a slog if you play the SNES version. It was pretty simple and easy. I played the DS version which made the game harder and I still found the characters and game mechanics really enjoyable many years later.
"He dislikes the good ones and likes the bad ones. He has no remote claim to being right."
You said bad ones so I just kind of assumed.
I'm also like Glass where I think all of them are at least fine. FF13 is fine, but still not very good. I can't dislike FF1 because I'm not insane and can place myself in the shoes of back then. I can still enjoy the kind of game it is. Walk places, level up, talk, get new gear and spells, and repeat. I enjoy the formula still.
The worst thing I've ever read in any of these threads so far.
Me too, buddy. Sort of. Maybe not the anime or not caring part though.
