I can't describe what this article has done to my head. Within this jumble of social observations, there are nuggets of sheer brilliance I can't begin to describe.

The one I'm focusing on is one answer that has eluded me for years. What made games fun for me when I was little. An element of fun I haven't found since I was ten years old. An explanation of "Casual" games, one that makes me realize why I and many others held disdain for them. I no longer.

I'm so confused right now, I can't succinctly put it into writing. You might find the article to be just a stupid rant, but this has seriously affected my thinking.

I completely agree. This rant is 100 percent concentrated excellence.

I'm still having trouble putting it into words, but that sums it up nicely!

I forgot to mention the part about FFVII. I did like VIII, but he brings up a great point in that game affecting, well, everything.

Only bad thing is that it was incredibly long to read, but I must say he did a completely thorough job of telling me the good and faults of the games.
