Yeah, especially when you make such excerpts throwing out everything in-between and probably not even reading my previous posts. In some cases you can even change black to white and back with that technique of yours. But I still feel I have to explain myself. My viewing of Japanese people of power, government in particular, is based on viewing Zatoichi series with Shintaro Katsu as Zatoichi. Don't even waste your time on viewing Takeshi Kitano's version. Quite a poor remake. Almost a complete nonsense. But those with Shintaro Katsu really show how arrogant those samurai were. I am quite sure that most of the modern Japanese government are descendants of samurai like those. Many things have changed since those times, of course. But I am quite sure that those who hold power are still retain that arrogance.

Well, after Baldur's Gate, Dragon Age really seems to be quite poor. But after playing many other modern games, including some so-called RPGs, and FFXIV too, I now find Dragon Age really enjoyable. Not as good as Bladur's Gate, of course. But after those ridiculously childish Neverwinter Nights series, it seems to be good anyway. I should admit that it could be hard to play and enjoy for casual players. But that is the truth for any hardcore RPG. What I don't like about Dragon Age is that BioWare after all changed their spell system from AD&D to a more simple like in other RPGs. Otherwise it's a real hardcore RPG. BioWare added more action in DA2 to attract more casual players. I hope they didn't spoil the RPG part. Haven't played it yet, as I want to finish Origins and Awakening before starting DA2. And not just finish it, which would be easy and fast enough, but play it through like I played every hardcore RPG before. Where would be fun to play it otherwise?
And there is also Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood, especially for those who likes more action, and The Witcher 2 will be released in May. What I like about The Wither is non-linearity. The first game was just a remake of Sapkovsky's Wiedzmin books. They made it look like it is a sequel, but there are too many déjà vu. Looks more like a remake to me. I think they only made it to be a sequel in order to add non-linearity without being accused of perverting the story, like it was with the TV series. But in the second game there surely should be something completely new. Also I noticed that after The Witcher was released, BioWare started to add more non-linearity to their games too. They must have seen a competition to their own games there.

And I should agree with somebody above. I don't like other MMOs besides FF too. Most of them are complete nonsense. I even think that MMORPG is a dead end for RPG as a whole. But Square Enix is definitely trying to make something special of FFXIV. Or, at least, tries to make everybody feel that way. Anyway, I think I'll take a several months break to play those other good games I mentioned above. I only hope that SE won't start charging monthly fees before I will be ready to return, or else I will probably have to cancel my FFXIV subscription, and I am not sure I want it. If only there was an option to suspend it without losing any character data. Somewhere either in the terms of service, or in user's agreement or something like that they mentioned that they don't guarantee a safety of character data on any canceled services, and I don't like that, because there is no option to suspend instead of canceling.
