- 1: No spam or advertising. This basically means no linking to your own content on blogs, YouTube, Twitch, etc.
- 2: No bigotry or gatekeeping. This should be obvious, but neither of those things will be tolerated. This goes for linked content too; if the site has some heavy "anti-woke" energy, you probably shouldn't be posting it here.
- 3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.

Final Fantasy 7: Remake. I now understand what all the fuss was about and why it's probably the most famous out of them all (I might be wrong on that). I haven't played the original so this was a great introduction.
FF7 (original) is famous because it was a huge jump from 2d pixel to 3d models. The original iteration had tank controls, and the game was long. But largely empty and slowed down by random encounters.
The new one changed the story dramatically. The next game will further deviate from the original.
Huh, well I still like the remake nonetheless. I'm planning on playing it after the story is completed but thats going to be a while.
For sure. I loved the new one and I like what they're doing with the story. Feels appropriate.
