Thinky Thoughts about Roleplaying in Final Fantasy

Much food for thought has come out of [community profile] moogle_university's year-long replay of Final Fantasy games. (And much more hilarious MST3King during our playthrough posts).

I've been archiving my recaps and discussions from my Dreamwidth journal, where I originally post them, onto my own website. You may have seen my earlier, incoherent post on DW about roleplaying in Final Fantasy. There were some good comments/feedback on that initial post.

I've developed it further in a more coherent "thinky thoughts" essay posted here:

"The Greatest Stories I Ever Lived": Roleplaying in Final Fantasy

Enjoy!

(And, if you like it, please share it with other gamers, because it really applies to video games in general.)

That is an awesome essay! I just love the historical context, about what and "RPG" meant in a tabletop context.
