24.8 hours to finish Final Fantasy III. I spent so much time preparing so much for the World of Darkness… and those preparations worked out really well.
Here’s how we defeated the Cloud of Darkness and their feckless minion, Xande.

Champions Online vs DCUO
City of Heroes cast a long shadow over the superhero MMO landscape. There’s easily a half dozen efforts to resurrect the game in some form, either by recreating the original game, or building a clear sequel.

FF3 — Making Myself CoD-Worthy

So that’s what I did.
