I just cannot buy any of them after the blatant false advertising of the first one.

:D
The medievals were only too right in taking nolo episcopari as the best reason a man could give to others for making him a bishop. Give me a king whose chief interest in life is stamps, railways, or race-horses; and who has the power to sack his Vizier (or whatever you care to call him) if he does not like the cut of his trousers.

Government is an abstract noun meaning the art and process of governing and it should be an offence to write it with a capital G or so as to refer to people.

-J. R. R. Tolkien

I assume it's a joke that it's not a "final" fantasy since there are many more of them in the series.

My dad made the same joke, back when I bought Final Fantasy II (IV) in the early - mid 90s.

Dad jokes never go out of style.

Being a dad it was a required joke.

But seriously I actually have never played any of them since the first one. Just coincidentally.

I think I only ever completed FF7, which is considered a classic.  I bought FF8 but didn't get very far.  I also played FF13 up to around mid-way I think.  Like most Japanese RPGs, these games have excellent characters, graphics, stories, and music, but the game mechanics are repetitive and boring.  There is very limited freedom compared with western RPGs.  They are the opposite of go anywhere, do anything.

Sir Dinadan the Humorist made the same joke back in the 6th century after being told about FFI by a time traveller.

Beat 7,8,9,10 back in the 1990s when I had enough time to beat games. It's the only JRPG I've been thoroughly addicted to.

I had a nostalgia bout a few years ago and tried to beat 12, but got bored quickly.

Heh, I didn't intend as a dis at Valmy. Just a happy memory from yesteryear.  :)

Latest official photograph of Kim.  It shows the date as 1 May 2020.



She appeared in what appears to be a fresh look, with head bands and eye shadow?

Sorry to burst everyone's fantasies, but once the clapping analysis is done, the two to Kim's right are so going to be executed.  :(.

Why? Is eating toast a crime? :(

Nice of Trump to note he's still happy he's alive.
