Tim Rogers on FFXIII
I'm not even done reading it, but I had to share. This guy makes me so fucking jealous. Damn is he a good writer. Maybe the best writing about games.
I'm not done reading it either. All that personal stuff up front about him and his relatives medicine cabinets is not empathy inducing and in the way. Let me know if he ties it back in somehow and maybe I will forge ahead later.
ugh. i gave up on the FF games about 5 years ago. (i think it was FFMDCCLVXXXIII--i lost count.) the game looked nice, but that was overcome by the mind numbing repetition of the fights and the fight mechanics.

He ties it really well. And I think I love the non-game stuff in there.
ReplyDeleteMy problem with the non-game stuff probably stems from the real Tim Rogers not lining up with the Tim Rogers in my head.
ReplyDeleteI'll have to work through that.
People keep trying to tell me about the real Tim Rogers, but all I need is the one that writes good game stuff.

ReplyDeletethe article was a fun read though.
The list of people I am no longer talking to keeps on growing.
