FFX will always be my favorite, I still think it’s the best story of the franchise. Other ones I like are Golden Sun, FFIV, Super Mario RPG, Crono Trigger was good too (just played that for the first time). Lufia I and II are worth mentioning while I never beat them start to finish I was often at a friends house who had them and watched a good deal of it. I’m gonna try to play those soon, I recall liking the story but I can’t remember too much of it anymore.

that would be much more practical and useful

Word, same playing Chrono Trigger for the first time. I now get the hype.

Smoked second hand for about 20 years.

Well I look at the national debt, once that implodes people might start organizing. I don’t think we are gonna manage our way out of it

Yoshi’s Island for the SNES was great I still hum some of those

Three Kingdoms Total War, harder to time to game but I tend to be able to buy at a discount as I might play a game years after release.

I love complaining about the national debt, we have overspent for years, seems its finally becoming an issue, doubt this would offset any future debt ceiling caps.

Sit back and hope a financial crisis will break it. I’m not sure what it will take for the national debt to become a focus vs a background problem. I can non-comply on a personal level, but maybe easier said than done. I feel like most people are not happy so that gives me some hope.

I think its a liability thing, people get hooked on painkillers, they don’t want to be held responsible for prescribing it. Not sure how regulated certain drugs are, but probably a mix. Not sure why they would hold for certain ops they deem not bad enough. No great answer for this one, could be the system just sucks or there is no really great fix for it.

Word, playing octopath traveler on the switch, chapter 4 so getting there

Word, same, I like owning the physical format. Though it feels more of a collectors thing to do now but I like listening to albums. Sort of a lost art but you can stumble on less played songs and keep growing that playlist.

Johnny Winter had a great live version of Mean Town Blues I forget which version though. He also had a good live cover of jumping jack flash.
