It's time to be honest with myself:
These are both very, very good games, worthy of my time and respect, and I got pretty far in both of them, and the only reason I'm not finishing either of them right now is because of the 1600-pound elephant in the room that is City of Heroes.
Croc was a birthday gift from the everpresent Celine and it's a very strong early 3D platformer. The controls are a bit difficult, but I was figuring that out. They just take practice. City of Heroes showed up, I quit practicing.
FF6 I was playing for myself. I have a save with everything done but the Fanatic's Tower and Kefka's Tower. I could probably load it up and blitz Kefka inside five hours. Again, City of Heroes. I haven't touched this in like a month.
Elder Scrolls Online is doing its big dragons and Elseweyr expansion. Neverwinter has a new module out. Everquest 2 I was playing with a dear friend and just fell right out of and I feel deeply ashamed of myself for that. FFXIV is gearing up for an expansion with huge hot lionmen in it.
Here I am, in 2004, playing City of Heroes.
I think I just kicked my entire backlog off the rails.
Oops, but also, yay.
