I agree. I wouldn't want Kojima to drag Snake back for another game. He should've blown his goddamned brains out three years ago. In fact, that's why I don't want him to return in future Metal Gear games: so I can pretend that that happened.

Yes. Christ yes.

Hold me.

Great! I'll bring the popcorn.

Honestly, I think the quality of the game is incidental to its cult hit status. It's just that there are very few old-school jrpgs on consoles this gen, so the people hungering for that kind of game really dug Lost Odyssey.

I've only encountered a dragon in Dawnstar and Winterhold. Though I did fight one on the bridge leading to Windhelm. That was pretty great, mostly because I had a dozen guards on my side.

Thieves' Guild. The honey farm heist was fun.

@Klei: Nope, pretty sure I liked Zelda at some point. I enjoyed every other Zelda game I've played: Ocarina of Time, Wind Waker, Twilight Princess and a smattering of handheld games. This is the only time Zelda has felt like a chore. Then again, it's been a while since Twilight Princess. Tastes change.

On an interesting side note, Skyrim has wheedled its way into this topic... like every other aspect of my life.

I've been playing with M1 and M2 reversed this whole time. In retrospect, I have no idea why. It doesn't make a lick of sense.

Thanks for the input, guys. I finished the Lanaryu Mine, and I think I'm done. The thing that really broke my spirit was when the old lady said to go back to the forest, volcano and desert and collect some "flames" for my sword, and I just assumed I'd have to bang out three more dungeons until the narrative moved forward again.

If I'm wrong in that assumption, feel free to correct me, but that's really only one of several reasons I quit. Glad you guys are having fun though.
