Like the kid who plays the PSP - He notes how easy it is to just insert a game and play it, and how addicting it is. That's not merely nostalgia speaking; that's the actual technology itself being cool in the same way pulling out a Gameboy for Millennials and playing a game on it was.

... I can at least conceptually understand why there's a Dualsense included with the Apple TV, given that the two are compatible and Apple Stores sell the Dualsense.

I don't know why you'd write on the controller with a sharpie tho. Have some respect for your stuff, for crying out loud.

I would love to just sit down with Yoshida and his team and tell him that I WANT to keep playing. But this game is no longer safe for me to do so. The entire game needs an extensive pass from trained in accessibility with regards to photosensitivity before it'd ever be fully playable for me again.

This is genuinely a serious problem with #FFXIV as a whole and is a big reason why a game I used to love so much I can no longer play. These flashing mechanics are everywhere, and there's nothing you can do about them save a handful of third party mods. Mods that compromise gameplay in other ways.

The actual game seems like it's fine itself, and I feel like Nintendo and Retro Studios could fix any flaws they wanted. But you can definitely tell there's a few flaws here and it's reflected in the review scores and user impressions. Makes me a bit hesitant to pick it up immediately.
