Been slowly picking away at the FF7 Rebirth platinum.

There are definitely a number of frustrating hard mode minigames, but I do ultimately like that you actually have a reason to get better and learn the nuances of each one.

I want them to iterate the minigames in part 3, not remove them.

A plea from myself after Anodyne got the 'old games were worse' treatment the other day.

Sitting here listening to Persona 3 music like a nostalgic fool. Alarmingly close to booting up the PS2 version of FES and playing The Answer for the first time.

Forget PSSR or any other PS5 Pro feature. If the PS6 lets you properly sort your trophy list my soul is yours Sony!

My dumbass is out here holding off on platinuming certain games until their sequel is out so they can all self order into a neat little list!

Revisiting Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth and it's utterly wild how much a different feel the open world has when you barely touch the towers.

So much of the appeal of the activities in the world is driven by discovery and the towers heavily reduce that. Hopefully reworked in Part 3.
