5 minutes ago, watching the good ending of Bioshock. I found it really touching.

Castlevania: Simphony of the Night, Valkyrie Profile, and a whole bunch of good ol' SNES games.

I'm assuming you're a girl. That would explain your fondness for what I like to call "Final Fantasy: Shoujo Edition". =]

That's why I love "missable items/quests" faqs. But the very fact that sometimes a guide is the only way [http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/GuideDangIt] to know about these things is a problem in itself.

Beyond Good and Evil made me believe being a freelance photographer is incredibly fun. As long as you have a laser-disc-shooting camera, but still...

Oh, you aren't alone in that one, Melaisis. Not by far... http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/ScrappyLevel

It varies a lot depending on the game. If it entices me enough, I'll rarely use a walkthrough, on the other hand, sometimes I just wanna get done with a game that wasn't as good as I expected and go play something else, but rather than abandoning it midway, I'd rather use a WT to speed things...

My thoughts exactly. As long as you have harder difficulty settings available, finding that a game gets too easy in multiplayer should be no problem at all.

<- The username says it all.

They've already announced the game won't have an M rating, so if it even has something that passes for fatalities, it's gonna be toned waaaay down.

I couldn't agree more. Another CRPG mechanic that really pisses me off these days is the tendency for very "original" but convoluted levelling up methods, especially those that make it very easy to permanently hamstring a character if you don't evolve him the "right" way.

Alundra 2 killed Alundra before it even had the chance to become a series. Apparently, Jade Cocoon 2 did the same, turning a pretty original RPG into a digimon tamers wannabe. But I couldn't say for sure, I never managed to play more than 20 minutes of it.
