My problems with the profile are:

A. I was waiting to see if you'd ever post again.
B. It doesn't make sense to hire a client that is known to occasionally kill his employer.

And if they don't know it is him, they will know that his completion rate for his jobs is a bit sketchy.

I was thinking along the lines of his first betrayal being in the beginning of the RP and exploring the many effects it has on his character as the mystical item he stole drags him through a convoluted plot against his sibling and that dude.

But after playing this game to refresh my memory, WTF throwing snowballs and being handed a red card for using a sword and sent to jail, X-2 was better.

This isn't Tactics Advance.

Unfortunately. It was so much better.

I like the part where it was a ripoff of The Neverending Story.

I liked the part where... OH WAIT I didn't like anything about it, at all.

I like how Final Fantasy Tactics is just The War of the Roses with demons.

Actually, FFT bears only a passing resemblance with the War of the Roses.

I like the part where I appreciate things on their merits, and not by what they use as inspiration.

Then you've come to the wrong thread.

Obviously.

Except there is a point in saying that something is a cheap knockoff of something else. It's like teenage vampire literature. Arguably, at some point, it might have had some merit, but by the time you reach Twilight, it's just a bunch of Mary Sues in a pile of shitty cliches.

But you have a point. That something was launched by something else doesn't necessarily mean they have the same quality. Prime example, Tactics is incredible, Ivalice Alliance is shit.

But since Tactics is part of the Ivalice Alliance, it's shit by association.

No.

"Fuck yeah, this game is awesome!"
"Did you know there are other games set in the same world?"
"Really? Sweet!"
*Plays.*
"...These games suck."
"Since they're all set in the same world, I guess that first game sucks, herp derp."
"But...they can't be set in the same world. All of the subsequent games contradict the first. Plus, they decided to do this like 10 years after that first game was made. They clearly did not plan it this way."
"U R STOOPID SE SAY IT SAME SO IS!"
"Fine. Whatever. This game was good. The so-called 'series' sucks."
"But it's part of the series, so it sucks, checkmate, atheists durr!"

Snicker. He says he played the other games in the series.

I played XII.

I'm sick of hearing people complain that I didn't play the TAs, they start with a snowball fight & end with a giant hand, there's no deep kernel of gold I'm missing.

The only one I'm interested in is Vagrant Story, & that's because that one was before all of the shoehorning.

But they do not, in fact contradict, but we've been over this before and I'd rather not talk about it again as it gets your panties in a bunch.

Bases everything about one game on a tutorial.

Bases everything about another game on one boss that doesn't even appear at the end of the game it appears in.

I got Vagrant Story the other day. It's sitting here waiting for me to start it.

It's not just on the tutorial, the story is shallow & the gameplay is ridiculous.

Was this conversation where you allegedly proved a lack of contradiction before or after I discovered that the unused Lucavi had identies that were switched out for references to old FF bosses?

That had nothing to do with it.

I rest my case.

What case? You were just getting buttmad because no one cares about your favorite game.

You've yet to make one though...
