Vagrant Story takes place in Ivalice as well and is the only game I'd say I love as much as Tactics when it comes to sheer vibe/atmosphere. The opening gameplay sequence is amazing.

Yeah dude, Tactics was incredible. Art style, music, gameplay, story, just the vibe, man. My only beef is that it had the typical FF ending feeling of getting too sort of "out there". Went from a very human story to the typical third act of oh now there's some big weird big bad I have no emotional investment in to pose a more serious threat I guess.
Agrias remains one of my all time favorite characters.
Screw Algus.
Yeah man, you're speaking my language. Back when seeing someone as "online" generally meant they were deliberately there, not just that their phone was on
Honestly, I'm kind of excited for it to not just look like the live action films or well-known artwork got converted to animation. I love LOTR and I love the films and other interpretive works we have but I'm definitely interested in a fresh take. Hoping this is good.

Man, I miss the golden age of point-and-click adventure games. My brothers and I played through so many together. PC Speaker version of the MI1 soundtrack for maximum nostalgia: https://invidious.nerdvpn.de/watch?v=_cfPw3IL1sk
Was pong on the Telstar, along with Tennis and i think two more similar super basic games? That's what we had
Holy smokes, I forgot all about that thing! Seeing a picture of it brought out some ancient archived memories
I loved this game! I'd send swarms of armored cars against my brother.

Desert Solitaire by Edward Abbey. I only discovered it fairly recently and it has already become my go-to read whenever I'm looking for some peace and simple natural spirituality with a generous side of denouncing the absurdity of modern culture and overaggressive "progress" and development.
I loved 8! I got so into the characters and their stories. I was always excited to see more Laguna & Co. I remember downloading the Eyes On You song, probably off one of those sketchy P2P music sharing services.
