On Computer Games Monthly #1
The #magazine is complete!
This #zine is digital nostalgia; a collective of writers from the #fediverse striving to capture the subjective quality of #videogames with stories about life-and-stuff.
Currently playing #Nier: Replicant, #FinalFantasy IV, and #ShadowComplex. Enjoying Nier: Replicant so far. FFIV was the FF game of my childhood but never got around to finishing it so here we go. And Shadow Complex is a fun metroidvania.
This is yet another insanely packed issue.
From the 132 pages in total, I have over 60 of them that I'd like to post! 😅
So I'll try to pick some great stuff and save the rest for another day.
First up is the preview for Final Fantasy 8 on PSone from GamesMaster 80 - April 1999 (UK)
Oh hey! Arcadian Atlas, a turn based #strategy game in the vein of Final Fantasy Tactics, just released on Steam an hour ago.
I've been following the development of this one for a while now; the character art really caught my eye. It's changed a lot. I can't wait to see how it turned out!
Hi all! I’m Bea, based in the U.K. PS5 and Switch gamer and long time final fantasy lover 🥰 Hope to make some new gamer friends here, especially ones who are currently also playing FFXVI 👀 #FinalFantasy#PS5#Switch#girlswhogame#ffxvi
I don't play #MagicTheGathering, I only dabble in #MTGArena, but I'm a big #DoctorWho fan and I really like the card art. Convince me otherwise to not get the cards. (Oh, and this argument will be repeated in 2025 when the MTG #FinalFantasy cards are out.) #MTGxWHO
At first, he seems clumsy and shy, lacking self-confidence. He is fearful of his powers, origins, and his own lifespan. Over time, he gains bravery and confidence, as well as a sense of right and wrong
Final Fantasy IX – 23 years after its release here in North America, I can now proudly say with pleasure that finished it earlier this week. I first fired up FFIX this past summer on a warm late August evening. After pulling the game out of a box from the basement and copying the four discs to my PC, I loaded them into the RetroArch emulator equipped with the Beetle PSX core. 1/
It was so nice knowing you all... I've enjoyed my time on the Fediverse, but tonight #finalfantasy 7 Rebirth comes out and I don't know if you'll ever see me again. ily 🫶
#VendrediLecture : « la musique dans Final Fantasy » de Jeremie Kermarrec chez third éditions
Deuxième livre chez third consacré spécifiquement à la musique après celui sur Zelda, l’approche de l’auteur est ici différente car il n’est pas musicologue, mais c’est tout aussi intéressant
Jeremie Kermarrec est de toute façon un excellent auteur (je conseille ses 3 autres livres d’ailleurs sur FFXIII, FFXV et la bio officielle de Uematsu)
“There should be an HD remake of Final Fantasy VI!” Sure, but that game deadass has a sex scene in it. On screen. They didn’t even fade to black like in VII. Why am I the only living human being that remembers this. #gaming#videogames#finalfantasy
