FFXIV

No firends and no interest in paying a monthy subscription. Bought it heartbroken just to escape from how shitty I felt, only to keep feeling shitty and having less money.

I bought Bioshock Infinite

and was 4 hours in when I realized I wanted to return it

>bought division for $100 edition
>bought other games for $60 that I barely play anymore and are on sale constantly

Why the fuck do I keep doing it? You would think I'd learn my lesson but I eat it up like the good little goy I am. The truly sad part is I know it's stupid I just can't help myself. I'm gonna buy FFXV on release day and will probably even get IW with the COD4 RE
>>
>2015
>paid triple digits for some SNES RPG carts
>>
Bought The Division day one with the season pass and have no idea what the fuck i even got.

>Boot up Castlevania 1 PS3
>Games runs in 18 fps
>Attacks dont feel satisfying at all (I love God of war and even had a blast with Dante's inferno)
>Pretty sure this story will be retarded
>Thinking about returning it
Anything you guys can say to make me reconsider?


Another.

>Just rebought Overwatch a 2nd time
>Feel as though I didnt give it a fair chance only 6 hours played
>Realize it a shallow as fuck """shooter"""
>Arguing with Blizzard manager to give me my shekels back and if they refuse then fuck it and not playing anymore neo blizz shit except D3 since its the only decent game they still can make

Feel really stupid for getting it a second time but I learned from my mistake.

I just bought SotfS for PS4 last week, sunk another 40~ hours into it. Ran the original game 3 times.

It gets a bad rap. In all fairness, it has a lot of creative new ideas, but covers them under the "YOU DIED" mantra that prompted B-team to make 3-phantom gank squad boss fights, Rat Sif, etc.

Much more complete and total package than 3 currently is. Definitely worth playing through at least once, and has the most complete NG+ experience in Souls to date.

If you haven't gone back since DS3's release, I highly recommend it. The contrast really makes DS2's high points shine.

Bought a 300 dollar Xbone on Black Friday just for Rock Band 4.

It's still the only game I play on it that's not a backwards compatible 360 game.
>>
Bought a Wii remote and a Nunchuck for Dolphin because i couldn't set the emulator controllers right.

Bought The Twin Snakes and the disc 1 has a big scratch on the label, i haven't tried it yet, but my bet is that it isn't work. I include in the same category of dumbness to Max Payne 2 for Xbox, as the disc doesn't work.

Bought a Chris Redfield figure instead of a Jill Valentine one. I could be hotgluing it right now.
