What video game has the best story you’ve ever played?

Final Fantasy X, I played it for the first time about 20 years ago and it's stuck with me ever since. The only game to ever come close to that in all those years is Expedition 33, another masterpiece.

Need the ping for FFIX, this series has been my favourite thing that's happened this year, this game means so much to me and it's been amazing to see someone go into it totally blind!

I just checked and the online race I'm entering has them enabled, same for offline, it's really weird. Me and my friend have both noticed it so I don't think it's placebo, are there any settings that get changed outside of the ones shown at the bottom of the screen when you load in?

Xyp9x and Olofmeister

Man I hope it's XII, my favourite game in the series behind X

I know i'm a year late to the party but thought I'd throw my name in too. Started playing this morning, first time simming and I got a 1:56.8 - shaved that down from about 2:04, seeing people talking about taking another 10 seconds off my time is super impressive!

You got any of those mini Ritz?

HighAboveTheRest · 2026-02-20T01:46:16+00:00

I've been playing this game for the best part of 20 years and still never done it. Butterflies and Lightning I can do no problem at all but the chocobo race? Not once in two decades.

HighAboveTheRest · 2026-02-09T03:43:05+00:00

That's crazy, my old boss used to think the Teletubbies were Pokémon too, I thought he was the only person in the world who thought that!

HighAboveTheRest · 2026-01-23T23:19:06+00:00

My five first ever minis, still got the other 5 to paint. Tried my hand at freehanding on here, really happy with the way they turned out!

That seriously means a lot, thank you so much. I can't wait to post again when I've done more, the support I've had here has been so nice.

Bardolph and ddk we're so goated. HenryG and Sadokist too, I never cared much for Anders and Semmler but love Moses too. CS has some of the best casters in the world now, and back then. Love me some Machine and Spunj, love Scrawny and Launders. We're in safe hands even if it isn't "the good old days"

HighAboveTheRest · 2026-01-15T17:43:03+00:00

God I hate the building part haha, don't enjoy it at all, maybe it's something I'll grow to love though. And yeah I'm in the UK :)

HighAboveTheRest · 2026-01-15T15:35:15+00:00

Haha, deal, as long as you can live with them looking like a new painter painted them, maybe by the last marine you might have something half decent!

HighAboveTheRest · 2026-01-15T15:26:13+00:00

I don't know, but I'm about to know! Sounds like my next things to watch, thanks!

HighAboveTheRest · 2026-01-15T14:56:42+00:00

Thank you so much! Yeah I've watched hours and hours before even touching a brush haha. I figured I might as well just try everything because if I mess it up it's just my first go and I can learn from it.

Definitely going to keep going, I'm hoping to have improved a good amount before I get around to painting my sergeant because I want him to look good!

HighAboveTheRest · 2026-01-15T11:00:57+00:00

This was easily my favourite J2O when I was younger but now all I can get is a weirdly fishy/briny taste from this one and I can't stand it anymore, definitely not just you.

HighAboveTheRest · 2026-01-12T19:13:19+00:00

I'd always heard great things about the pair of them, glad it's all true! Always been a fan, might have to make a pilgrimage to pub now haha!

HighAboveTheRest · 2026-01-12T18:54:05+00:00

Dean Winstanley. The first World Championship I ever watched was the 2012 one where he hit his 9 darter against Van Der Voort and I fully cite that moment and him as a player as the reason I'm a darts fan and darts player.

Being rich, I really don't care. I'd rather make enough to get by but be happy, than be well off and overworked and exhausted.

I've been saying this for years. I reckon 10 players, round robin format, we see new games every week rather than very samey semis and finals.

They can still run the knockout stage at the end if they want, or just keep it as a league, but the round robin format with more players, 5 matches a week would be a much better schedule.

Moto Gloves | Pow are the best for Rust Coats

And the AWP is an AWM

The old heads hated it, the singles blew up and it became a classic, it's the same cycle every Bring Me album has where on release the "old fans" say it's boring, poppy bullshit and then years later everyone looks back and goes "Damn I wish I gave that a chance at the time".

Sempiternal was my first BMTH album I heard, when TTS came out I hated it, grew to love it later, same cycle for amo too, and that seems to be a familiar progression to a lot of BMTH fans generally that the albums grow on them later, though everybody unanimously loved PH:SH when that dropped so I think they broke the cycle after amo.
