Phantasy Star IV was ahead of its time in many ways, but perhaps none more prescient than requiring its players to beat the shit out of "tech users."

I wrote a long article about Rieko Kodama, her career at Sega, the evolution of her company, the games she worked on (including some canceled games and/or games for which she is not credited), the status of women and working conditions in the video game industry, etc.

Illustration: a portrait of Rieko Kodama with some of the games she has worked on. The dominant colors are yellow, purple and red. Counterclockwise from top left: Rieko Kodama, Alis and Lutz from Phantasy Star, Sonic in a maze, Alex Kidd and his motorbike next to Flicky on a waterfront pier, Joe Musashi and his dog near the Statue of Liberty facing a skyline, the three playable characters from Golden Axe seen from behind on the edge of a cliff, and one of the flying ships from Skies of Arcadia.

Final Fantasy Tactics: The Ivalice Chronicles is here, and it’s an impressive remaster of the classic PlayStation SRPG.

For my review, I did something a bit different: Gathered your AMA-style questions, and spilled tea on the new graphics, Delita’s kissability/punchability, difficulty, and more!

this could be a valuable resource in the post-apocalypse. Book of Eli but with gamefaqs

Retrograde Amnesia Podcast @retrogradeamnesia.bsky.social · Sep 11

not a joke I think 2001-era gamefaqs may be one of the largest collections of contemporary 9/11 takes/blogs remaining on the active internet. most of the other media from that period is long gone.

The Emotion Engine (The Emotion is Fear) @emotion-engine.bsky.social · Mar 25

September 11th, 2001. A shocked nation grieves as the World Trade Center is destroyed in the largest terrorist attack on American soil. Unsure of what else to do, GameFAQs user BoredGamer collects their thoughts and begins to work on a plain text walkthrough of Tail of the Sun

UPDATE HISTORY
9/11/01- I'm still getting over the day of tragedy we here in the US
have just endured. At 10 PM Pacific time, I decided I would resume life
the same as I had before the incident. I decided to move on and
continue FAQ writing by creating a FAQ for this game. Today, it sees
it's official birth as I call it. Legal Bit is up and running (Section
12) • Got a start on the FAQ•

I love the Sega Saturn but I have to imagine that PandaMonium is the most correct answer.

A screenshot from Quartet with the following dialogue: “Then it hit me - this isn't artificial meat. It's people. I confronted the doctor about this and simply glaned back at me, smirked, and said, 'This is reality. Let's go."
