The Rest / General Discussions / Why do people suck at grammar?

I remember my first post on these forums, the first thing I did was apologize for my grammar and spelling. And you know what? I shouldn't have apologized, I'm doing rather well compared to half of the internet population :P
I can't understand people mix up "their", "there" and "they're", I always thought those were very easy to keep apart.

Yep, fan-service is very powerful. But they do need to back it up with a story. It's either reincarnation or something like time-travel. Okay, VP did both, but I think reincarnation is more logical.

Media / Single-Player RPGs / Favorite game that reviews/people hated

I finished all the Saga Frontier quests, I completed SaGa Frontier II twice and I am seriously considering replaying both games. What does that say about me? Final Fantasy V and VIII are my favorite Final Fantasies. Also, Rhapsody is one of my favorite games, ever. I played through Secret of Evermore five times. Oh, and I replay Final Fantasy Mystic Quest almost every year.
And you know what? For some reason there are people who worship my opinion on RPGs. Idiots.

Fire Emblem games were great on snes. I have to second that. I absolutely love Fire Emblem: Seisen no Keifu. Played three times, in Japanese and I don't understand Japanese... I want to play the fifth Fire Emblem too, but they say it's quite a challenge, lot's of options and stuff. I really hope I'll be able to play a (legal) English version one day.

Also, when you start playing Secret of Evermore, don't expect another Secret of Mana game. Though is does borrow the engine, the setting and story are very different. If you don't expect Secret of Mana 2, you'll find plenty of things to like. I loved the bosses (they are huge!) and the locations. Oh, and the dog of course, who doesn't love the doggie?

And we still like to bring it up whenever someone mentions any RPG that wasn't released in Europe, it's like an ultimate weapon. Game was called Tenchi Souzou in Japan. I think that means something like Creation of Heaven and Earth.
Secret of Evermore was also released in Europe. Also a pretty big release, Nintendo even put screensshots on their SNES boxes. French version came with free strategy guide. French RPGs always came with a strategy guide, does that say something about the intelligence of your average French player?
Eh, anyway. I'dd start with Terranigma. It's not too long (my first playthrough took me 18 hours), but IMO it's one of the best Action RPGs ever. Beginning is somewhat slow, but everything past the five towers is pure awesome.

As if the industry doesn't have any cons. IIRC there is an outbreak of a desease threatening lifestock every year in Europe. Fun.
I don't think everyone should turn vegetarian or vegan, but it wouldn't hurt if people ate less meat and actually paid some attention to where the meat came from.

The Rest / General Discussions / Soledad Cross ordered removed.

So it has to be removed afterall? It's shame they have to remove it, I can't really see how it could offend anyone. Why does it matter it is one city property? Seperation of church and state, okay, but that is a bit extreme. It is not like that cross is propaganda or has voting rights. Unless it topples over and crushes several tourists, that thing is harmless.

The Rest / General Discussions / Prices of Game Rentals.

I never rented a game, it has always been to expensive over here. You pay 5 euro for several days and they charge 4 euro for a 'recent' movie for one day. No thank you, I'll wait a few months and buy the movie for 5 euro.
I have bought several ex-rentals though, it's nice when companies decide there is no money in it anymore. When the local MegaVideo dumped their videogames I bought a PS2, three games (including Grandia II), a good laptopbag, extra controller, memorycard and vertical stand for 60 euro.

Wait, first you say God is dead, then you say God should die. Is God, like, a cat or something, does (s)he have 9 lifes? Or is God more like an undead, he died but should be killed again, because he won't be really dead until we drive a stake through his undead godly heart?
