Exercising my right to be a fanboy
fearian | 2:32 PM on 12.16.2007 25 comments



They really need to nerf protect in this game. and haste too.

I know that theres a wierd kind of devision between hardcore anime fans who are pissed off at idiot naruto fans who think their japanese who cry about holier than thou cocks who think that if you like anime your some kind of gaywad.

so in the same way that its cool to laugh at idiot emo kids, theres a strong trend in the gaming world to look cool bashing the next generic final fantasty game.

well fuck them. I dont know shit about anime past that I like ghost in the shell. I dont think anime is for kids... but god damnit I love final fantasy games.

Final fantasy VII was the the game that made me a gamer. I had played many games from the NES up, but it was Final Fantasy VII that defined me as a gamer. Ive gone back and played I through VI, I love advent children, IX is my close favorie. I love this stuff.


How can you not admire an epic scene of beauty like this? ...wtf is that anyway...

and YES. I know that the lead characters an effeminate guy with a sword thats clearly compensating for something. I know that pre rendered FMVs do not make a game. I know that the story will be the cheesiest love story/save the world saga you could imagine. but will still buy and love this game.

trying to convince me otherwise is like trying to dissuade someone from their religion. dont try it. I dont care if you dont like it, just dont bother me about it.

and thats my convoluted bash at people that bash final fantasy games or something. Some times its just fun to be a fanboy. even if you look like an idiot. :)

So... this is a defense for FF on the grounds you will buy it regardless?
Clockwork's Destructoid Blog
So what your saying is that final fantasy games are good? That's...completely understandable and you should settle down a little bit.

I think he is trying to say that you shouldn't bash people cause you'll all get bashed?

A modern-day warrior
Mean mean stride,
Todays tom sawyer
Mean mean pride.

Though his mind is not for rent,
Dont put him down as arrogant.
His reserve, a quiet defense,
Riding out the days events.
The river

And what you say about his company
Is what you say about society.
Catch the mist, catch the myth
Catch the mystery, catch the drift.

The world is, the world is,
Love and life are deep,
Maybe as his eyes are wide.

Todays tom sawyer,
He gets high on you,
And the space he invades
He gets by on you.

No, his mind is not for rent
To any God or government.
Always hopeful, yet discontent,
He knows changes arent permanent,
But change is.

And what you say about his company
Is what you say about society.
Catch the witness, catch the wit,
Catch the spirit, catch the spit.

The world is, the world is,
Love and life are deep,
Maybe as his skies are wide.

Exit the warrior,
Todays tom sawyer,
He gets high on you,
And the energy you trade,
He gets right on to the friction of the day.




Also you are a fucking moron and go die in a fire. Why did I post these lyrics? Because at least the Dtoiders can get SOME enjoyment out of this blog. No one cares if you like Final Fantasy but obviously you care that others notice you like Final Fantasy. How pathetic. Also grammar is awesome.

I've nevr seen anybody ever bash FF. I'm not into them, but I'm not going cal them bad just because they're not my thing. Liking FF does not mkae you a fanboy, just a fan of FF. People are entitled to their opinions. Yeah, people often bash things to look cool, but those people are typically douchebags and I dont know why you're listening to them in the first place.

Also, learn the actual definition of a fanboy.

I can't agree with you more. I was a casual gamer my whole childhood Atari to PSX.It was FF VIII (Yeah motherfuckers, i liked 8 - more than 7) as a teenager that made me a hardcore gamer.

No one has tried to make you not buy the game.

Also, you do not have a right to be a fanboy. It is a privilege. Remember that.
