First, and foremost, I say I dislike Fan-service because it is a discredit to the integrity of games as a serious art-form. I say I do.
The trust is: I fucking love fan-service! Give me a scantly clad woman with cat-ears and a squeaky, and mildly sexual, voice and I'll roll on the floor and frolic like a pet getting its tummy scratched. I like all kinds of fan-service! The only reason I've not bought games such as X-blades and Bayonetta is because of the front covers. It makes it too obvious. Trust me though; the second I get my own place, I'm ordering all those kinds of games online for home deliver. I'm such a hypocrite. T_T
I've played these final fantasy games:
FF1, 3, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 10-2, 12 & 13
I've finished:
FF1, 6 & 13
I seem to have a problem finishing. . . (that's what she said)
Also, I loved Final Fantasy 13, even though I vowed to hate it. It didn't matter that I swore and spat at the story and characters to save face in front of my equally game obsessed twin. He knew. He knew. And while I'm at it. Vanille and Lighting... Hawt! (I feel dirty)
I've never finished Oblivion. I just get lost exploring and building up my character. I've never got past the quest that comes after bringing Martin back from Kvatch.
Oh. And I always play as a woman when I play games where you can chose gender. Bioware games being the exception.
I've not played the Metal Gear Solid series, apart from Sons of Libery with Raiden (which wasn't a conscious choice of game either; It was just there). I feel like I'm missing out.
I haven't played Minecraft yet, but I still know all these things about the right recipes for certain items, and how redstone works, or where to best find diamond.
I can finish Donkey Kong Country for the SNES in a bit more than an hour if I skip hidden levels and use shortcuts. It's not a perfect run, and I don't get a sense of gratification from doing it, but it passes time on days when I don't feel like masturbating.
I once screwed up a date with a girl that was actually interested in me in a 'not just a friend'-way. I spend the whole time thinking about the three games I was playing at the time. I blame it on insecurity. Not an unhealthy obsession.
There, just a few of my shames.
