my favs or: how loving things is pretty cool, sometimes
i used to have another favies list, but kinda couldn't help myself from fucking it with a lot, so this time i'll only let myself update it when like, idk something fruity like i can only update it on solstices or something. honestly the only one i'm really sure about in terms of ranking is ff7 being my de facto #1, with everything else kinda gravitating around it like an aberrant planetarium within my mind palace
all this is somewhat intended to be read in order, but seeing as how i'll eventually add more games later, i don't really care which order you read them in (if you read any at all), especially since the ff7 one ended up being longer and way more masturbatory than i expected. either way, just wanted to get this out of my stupid lil head 💕
4/16/24 - added super metroid
5/24/24 - deleted twilight princess, vampire savior, and super metroid. changed my mind!!! i'm allowed to, i am god here. going to add a couple more soon when i got the bones to do it, been kinda rough lately! prolly pentiment and something else

tbh i probably could've made some of these into actual reviews but i'm sparing the rest of the website from having to read these
Can't believe you would call Fire Emblem niche. I mean you're totally correct, it is niche. But that doesn't mean you should just say it!
Finished reading through these this morning, the ff7 one is really touching to me <3
also chrono cross lovers unite

@Rowan1312 they're def raking in that gacha money from FEH tho, even if the main series is selling metroid dread and pikmin 4 level numbers lol
probly why they've gotten away with queerbaiting for years even if NoA localization tried to catch most of it back in the 00s, and tbh even as recently as fates from what i remember
@moschidae omg that actually means so much to me that somebody read all that, i spent an embarrassing amount of my weekend writing a lot of these, thank you so much, really!!
also, fuck yeah. chrono cross haters the type of people to see a beautiful sunset crashing against the horizon irl and think to themselves "eh, kinda mid" or something

Everyone SHOULD give it a read, it's a really good list and i love to hear about things people care about
I remember first starting chrono cross and being very worried it was going to be unbeatable for me cause its a ps1 rpg and i hate grinding for 30 hours at a time, but it honestly has one of my favorite combat systems of all time. (Spoilers) and that part where you become that lynx dude was amazing, thats my favorite part of the game by far. Everything after that and the shoehorned in chrono trigger lore was uhh.... but at least that ending theme was absolutely beautiful. Gotta replay it sometime 0-:

@moschidae well thank you! honestly it might be partly thanks to people like you who have that more personal review style that i felt confident enough to do something like this, like, your bg3 reviews are really good, love to see passion on this website!!
i remember being a little put off by the combat when i first played it years ago, but nowadays it's like, so clearly cleverly handled (especially after slogging through chrono trigger's combat a few months ago, a combat system that is only saved by fact that it lets me suplex every enemy in the game with ayla) and genuinely the most fun i have with RPG gameplay on the ps1 next to ff7 (even if og ff7 combat is like, kinda bad admittedly, it activates my syndromes and that's all that matters)

i feel like that whole ending would legit just be better without dialogue cuz it's so beautiful aesthetically in visuals and theme and sound design and music, it's all so good. that said i think i like the chrono trigger integration more than most just cuz i love the idea of there being some sort of consequences to crono and gang fucking with time travel. could've been more evenhanded tho, they literally just dump like 15 wikipedia articles on the player. personally the aesthetic experience of the last couple levels and endgame bosses is just so good that i don't even care that much that it's a mess
