Russian war has little to do with it. For example Germany had already decided to scrap nuclear for gas, which actually bit them in the ass when the war started.

Yeah I’d say skip it and check one of the other recommendations in this thread instead.

Doesn’t sound like much rain… Has it ever rained at Burning Man before?

I only logged about 3-4 hours in that game and only encountered 2 battles. The story up to that point put me off too before it even picked up stream, like a classic “prince ascending to throne and hey here’s your betrothed future queen who you don’t quite get along with, oh hey bandits” Maybe my expectations were too high with the hype the story was getting. The dialog is so drab, it’s a chore to click through.

I just wanted to play a modernized FF Tactics, but I couldn’t even find the game within triangle strat.

I had also got FF7 crisis core reunion shortly before that. I put too many hours into that expecting it to evolve but the gameplay is nothing more than a grind in featureless terrain that you only have the option of fast-traveling to.

Then I realized this was my first time to play squeenix. I was expecting squaresoft.

I won’t get another squeenix game.
