Community Playthrough [SUMMER of 2018 (and possibly winter?)]

[fancy]

YO!

You know what’s awesome?

When you realise the leg that’s been asleep has finally ‘woken up.’

Know what’s even more awesome?


COMMUNITY PLAYTHROUGHS (...IN THE SUMMER!!!)


The purpose of this post is to get nominations out there as well as discussing who may be interested in hosting the said playthrough. Hoping to keep this active for at least a fortnight.

I’m hoping to have everything decided by May, so that there’s sufficient time to plan and kick off the playthrough in June. Note that this timeframe is very flexible, ha, you lot know how I be!

• Final Fantasy V
• Final Fantasy VI

• Final Fantasy X
• Chrono Trigger
• Final Fantasy Tactics

What we might wanna do (but haven’t already).

• Theatrthythm Final Fantasy
• Tomb Raider (2013)
• X-COM: Enemy Unknown
• Xenosaga Episode 1: Der Wille Zur Macht

SO HOW’S ABOUT THIS.

I’m going to make a NEW list that we’ll vote on at some point based on everything that is said IN THIS THREAD. So…

• If you see a title already listed here that you’d like to see thrown into the ring, let me know.
• If you see a title here that you DO NOT want to be thrown into the ring DON’T FUCKING MENTION IT, YOU’LL ONLY CONFUSE ME.
• Otherwise, list any other (new) titles you’d like considered.
• ALSO!!!!!!!!!! LET ME IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN HOSTING A PLAYTHROUGH AND GIVE ME THE TITLES OF THE GAMES YOU’D BE INTERESTED IN HOSTING. And if someone names a title that you’d like to host, too, just let me know.

That’s cool Fancy, anything else I need to know?

• Also, I was thinking whatever game ends up coming second, we can host it for the Winter Playthrough, eh? Cool? Cool. Merci beaucoup!

[Lestat]

Nice listing!

I'd def vote for the likes of
FFXII
Dirge of derperus
Dragon age origins or da 2
Soul reaver or anything legacy of kain related
Mass effect (ALL OF THEM... EXCEPT ANDROMEDA WHICH CAN SUCK BALLS)
Last of us
Witcher 2&3
And womb raider

 

[Roger]

We should totally do Chrono Cross, that's my top pick!

 

[Geostigma]

Chrono Cross is a great idea.

I think Xenogears would be a good addition as well.

 

[ForceStealer]

I would happily host Xenosaga.

I would be down to play FFVI, Chrono Cross, Xenogears, Dirge, and I also have Suikoden II and have never played it, so that could be cool.

(Bolded text are ones not currently listed at the time of this post, for Fancy's convenience)



Oh, and if you guys select FFXII now?

 

[Ami]

I'd be down for these options.

• Dragon Age Origins
• Final Fantasy: Dirge of Cerberus
• Final Fantasy XII
• Final Fantasy XIII
• Final Fantasy XIII-2
• Final Fantasy XIV
• Final Fantasy XV
• Final Fantasy: Crisis Core
• Kingdom Hearts
• Kingdom Hearts 2
• Last of Us
• Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver
• Mass Effect
• Mass Effect 2
• Mass Effect 3
• Nier
• Tomb Raider (2013 release I'm assuming)

 

[Obsidian Fire]

Down for FFXII and 2013 Tomb Raider.

 

[CrashOuch]

I WANNA PLAY XII PLEASE

 

[Tennyo]

Oh, and if you guys select FFXII now?

Ya'll had your chance.

 

[CrashOuch]

I voted for XII last time too so I'm double voting this time!

 

[Mage]

I'd nominate Secret of Mana since the remake is ready to go but I probably won't have time to get into this.

 

[Obsidian Fire]

Forgot to add, FFXIV. I wouldn't mind replaying though the MSQ on an alt with people.

 

[ForceStealer]

I'd nominate Secret of Mana since the remake is ready to go but I probably won't have time to get into this.

I've never played this, so I would be okay with this too

 

[Channy]

One vote more for Xenosaga, but I also want to throw Tales of Xilia in the mix - Drakengard 3 (the newest one) is also a good game that warrents attention.

 

[Tennyo]

I voted for XII last time too so I'm double voting this time!

No, the point is that it's too laaaaaate D:

 

[The G'randiest' Daddy]

I'll copy Force's style (thanks for the idea dude) and say I like:

Chrono Cross
FF XII
FF Tactics Advance god I love this game so much I don't have a problem I swear...
Kingdom Heart 1, 2, Re:CoM (the PS version), Birth by Sleep
Mass Effect ALL
Star Wars KOTOR

There are other games on the list I want to play but do not currently own, so I'll leave them for now, and other games I own but if I started with that this list would be unending. So. That's me.

 

[Kionae]

I'm going to throw in my two cents for Dirge of Cerberus and Last of Us.

I'm also going to add Thief... because I've had it for like two years now and have yet to play it.

 

[Carlie]

Oh, and if you guys select FFXII now?

Ya'll had your chance.

Well certain people (you know who you are) started voting for X when XII was winning just to tie it up and make it interesting and then X won. We were robbed I tell you!

I would love to share my love of Dragon Age with everyone and on the off chance it wins I can happily host it.

I would love to nominate Persona 4 Golden and Persona 5 but you either need a Vita or an emulator for the former and a PS4 for the latter. That might be difficult for some people. Also considering how long Persona 5 is a community playthrough could take forever.

 

[ForceStealer]

One vote more for Xenosaga, but I also want to throw Tales of Xilia in the mix

I love you. I could run Xillia too

 

[CrashOuch]

No, the point is that it's too laaaaaate D:

Nope, nope. Never too late.

 

[Clement Rage]

Casting vote for Dirge, All Legacy of Kains, Resident Evil 2.

What do the crossed out titles mean?

 

[fancy]

^Crossed out titles are ones that have already been mentioned and thus have been added to &#8220;Keeping/Considering&#8221; ^^

 

[Channy]

One vote more for Xenosaga, but I also want to throw Tales of Xilia in the mix

I love you. I could run Xillia too

 

[Joker]

Chrono Cross - and I would intensely love to host it.

I'd also host Xenosaga if Force doesn't.

I'd also be cool with Super Mario RPG - I've never played it and always wanted to.

 

[ForceStealer]

A sequel to the Omega-run Chrono Trigger would be cool. I also didn't get too far in it on PS3.
