Hello!

Hello everyone~ I used to blog on LJ years and years ago. I miss it a lot, so I decided to become active on Dreamwidth. I figured I would introduce myself here to meet fellow FF fans!

Name

How you got into the FF games
At the age of 12, I went to a family friend's house with my Mom for some sort of party. I noticed the host's teenage son sneaking away to the basement, so I followed him to get away from all of the adults. I saw that he was playing some sort of video game. When he caught me watching him, he started a new save file so that I could see it from the beginning. This game turned out to be FFVIII. I was enthralled by the opening sequence, and needless to say, I've been a fan ever since!

Hullo hullo! I'm Jami, nice to meet you namesake. ;D LJ/DW style sites are the best for a bit more in-depth contact than the twitters and instagrams of the present day, for sure. Nothing quite like them in the big-name social media sites these days!
My faves are FF4 and FF9 along with a bunch of others like Type-0. Depends on the day really, and whether you're asking which world/story I like the most or whether it's about the gameplay. Those two can be really different lists! I love the whole series really, although currently I'm mostly on break from the online and phone games. Been playing (or semi-playing) FF14 since 1.0 alpha days, and I'm concentrated with all my various charas on Balmung.

Ha, nice to meet you too! And I'm sorry for taking so long to respond. I forgot that I wrote a post here.

I already vastly prefer it over here than on Twitter. It's nice to read posts beyond 140 characters. I've always felt that Twitter is so limited.

FF4 seems pretty wonderful from everything I've heard. I really need to play it (along with other older FFs) someday. In any case, I totally hear you re: the difference between story and gameplay.

It must be quite the journey to have played all the way from 1.0 in FFXIV! I can only imagine how impactful Endwalker must've felt for you.

I really need to check out Balmung sometime. Even though I don't RP, I like being surrounded by RPers. It makes the world feel more lively.
