but you, my love, were kind
I'm not saying I'm actually going to make videos, but I didn't realise how happy installing a video editor on my computer would make me.
I actually really like video editing, but I don't do it much because a) Ubuntu doesn't come with a built in editor (unlike Windows and Movie Maker, fr'ex); b) I haven't thought about making videos for years; and c) I did sometimes make fandom videos, but the reason nobody's ever seen them is because they didn't get finished and youtube wasn't really A Thing at the time (or it was, kind of, but I had rubbish upload speeds because dial up).
It was one of the things I learnt to do in college/for my degree, and I didn't know I'd like it that much. I've never pursued it as a job prospect though, because I think it's like animation in that, if I had to do it for work, it would stop being fun.
But I did think about making some sketchbook flip throughs or something, but I'm making NO PROMISES.

The other evening, I watched Aoife and Johnny play FFX-2 for a Late to the Party. Watch as Johnny becomes endlessly frustrated with the controls! (I mean, tbf to him, finding the point where you can jump is a pixel hunt, and IS frustrating)
And I sat there the next day, and I thought to myself, "GDI, I am going to play FFX-2, because that game is fun, and it's been well over ten years since I played it!" (it has to be at least twelve, but I suspect it may be even longer ago than that).
(ha ha ha, this means the last three FFs I've played have all been remakes/remasters!)
I have played about four hours? maybe? and am already at the end of Chapter One, because I forgot it's a really short game if you only do what the plot tells you to. I miiiight go back and restart, but I also might not because I don't really want to?
I did finally find the moogle on Luca docks at the beginning, though, so yay? (I think it only counts for 1% of your overall complete percentage, but uggghhh, I didn't even know it was there way back when!)
I am also watching Aoife and Zoe play OG FFVII (this links to the first video in the playlist). I don't know if I will go on to watch them play the remake (I might wait till I've got my own copy and have played it).
Also still absolutely convinced that I am the weird one among Final Fantasy fans, as I like most of the games I've played. (III, I haven't played enough of - I need to fix that. II frustrates me because the levelling system is borked and I don't have the patience to work around it. VIII I also haven't really played enough, but also Junctioning is weird, and I don't think the tutorial explains it too well? Again, I ought to go back and replay it, and see if Junctioning makes any more sense this time around).
