It depends on the burger. Up here in Canada we have a brand called Sunrise which are essentially Mcdonalds patties, and they are fine with nothing on them. But most of the time I go Ketchup, Mustard, Daves Sweet n' Spicy Pickle Chips, Cheese slices, Spicy Cheese powder. I might mix in a little Greek Yogurt with the Ketchup/Mustard just to make it more filling, but not always.

Luna didnt grow on me till it was too late.

I just wish square would realize not every ff game needs romance. Think 12 is about the only one close to modern day that didn't. 7 8 9 10 13 and 15 did.

No, we don't need romance, but we do need character development. Ergo why one of my favourite characters from 12 was Reddas. In what small amount of time he was shown on screen he had more character in him than half the main party.

Also on a side note, its kind of sad that Octopath is becoming the new Final Fantasy. I love the games, I just wish the main FF games had as much passion.

I have mixed feelings about Sun and Moon. The Pokemon in the games themselves are fantastic, but the story leaves much to be desired, and the amount of literal blockades the game puts in front of you is asanine. As you know each game takes place on 3-4 islands. Imagine Cerulean City, but multiplied by every single town you visit. It's infuriating.

I will suggest that after you get through the main series, that you start playing some of the fan roms. Pokemon Clover, Opalo (This one is frustrating to find an English version for as most are in Spanish), Uranium and there are a couple others that just blow me away. There are a couple that are buggy and will outright break at some points so you have to do save states for them, but the detail is far better than anything the Pokemon Company/Game Freak have put out the past few years.

Since you could give cold emotionless responses to Lunafreya it's my head canon he had no real love for her and it was an arranged marriage for political reasons.

it's also my headcanon he only gets upset when she dies because it made him feel worthless. That he couldn't even protect one person let alone a whole country and I guess her being a childhood friend kinds stings too

Natural leader maybe interesting? No

Only thing that made squall interesting is we got to see a lot of his inner thoughts compared to other protagonists.

I liked Lunafreya, I just wish we had seen more of her. It's my same problem with Ashe from FF12. We have these important female characters, but for the most part they really aren't explored properly prior to being introduced to the main party. Flush out the story, give me more of these characters, let me feel something for these characters. Show Ashe taking steps to regain her kingdom. Show Lunafreya caring about Noctis and vice versa.

It's a lot of the reason people flock to Tifa outside her other 2 reasons. Story = Power. If anyone wonders why I wanted Iris to end up with Noctis despite the obvious age difference (which could be corrected by making her 17, or him 18), that's why. Iris was given the story opportunities that Lunafreya should have gotten.

I think there's only 1 that I've ranked a perfect 10/10, and that was Full Metal Panic Fumoffu. It's a comedy anime, and you'll have to have watched the first Full Metal Panic to know the characters, but every episode is gold. The only other one that even came close was Kenichi, but that was kind of ruined by the manga continuing the story. I feel if they had cut the story right after the animes ending, it would have been an 11/10 for me.

Shouldn't have been any. I feel the game woulda been better off without with the poor attempt at a romance angle they tried.

The scene with leviathan was the only time it made me feel anything.

exactly. And what's worse about that, is that outside Altissia, the rest of Accordo was unexplorable. I kind of feel that if they weren't going to use that area, they should have just made it part of the other continent and make it dueling kingdoms. I digress.

They did not. Iris had a crush on him, but she's his bro's little sister. He's college age and she's a middle schooler.

Plus, he loved Luna.

"Loved Luna". At least in the base launch game their love was barely explored. They met a single time during the entire game, and most of the game he didn't even mention her. At least with Stella, the character she was based off of, there was at least interaction, even if it wasn't going to be love. We didn't even get that.

It's not a bad game. My only gripe is they shoehorned a romance in when it woulda been perfectly fine and simply a bromine

Hell they even gave you dilagoue options to make it seem like noct didn't give a shit about the romance but he suddenly greatly cares at a specific story point.

*not spoilers per say but you may be able to piece things together from this*

Not gonna go into details but I feel it was an arranged marriage and that's why you where given options to act indifferent about it. As for why he acted like he cared all of a sudden despite if you chose to act indifferent I just chose to feel like it was because the situation made him feel powerless to protect a single individual let alone his country.

The biggest problem I had with the game, at least with the romance story, is they hinted towards Noctis and Iris being something, and then poof... gone. I didn't play the game after the first couple months so I don't know if they brought her back in some sort of DLC, but her disappearing after the time gap just felt weird.

I've never seen the Karate Kid, but according to wikipedia, "Daniel LaRusso is a fictional character and the protagonist of The Karate Kid media franchise portrayed by Ralph Macchio."

And an argument can be made that he's the main antagonist. A boy works his ass off, trains for years only to get eliminated by a child prodigy in the last round who hits him with a lucky kick. How I Met Your Mother explained that fairly cleanly.

Binding of Isaac Repentance: Dogma and it doesn't help that you've to fight 5 other bosses after it. Good luck beating it as The Lost.

Dogma is the only difficult fight of those 5. Every other boss is fairly easy. Now, if you want to talk difficult, I've recently started playing the Fiend Folio mod for it, and some of the bosses in that mod shit all over the final bosses of the original game. There's a fight you can encounter in the first 2 floors where you fight three ghosts, they are brutally difficult. They spin in a circle and move across the room eventually spinning around you all while shooting bullets at the same time. It's ridiculously difficult for a floor 2 fight.

I think it was an awful game. THAT SAID, there are some things I really like about the game. I love the idea that if your going into an area your not supposed to be in, the game makes it feel like your running through mud and amps the difficulty of that area. I like Sories alternate costume with the black and red. It's the color scheme that should have been used for his 1st costume.

I even like some of the elemental dungeons. But everything else was terrible.
