The gas man finally came and checked my boiler and gas meter yesterday! \o/ Everything is fine, so now I don't have to worry about that again for another ten to twelve months!

Today it is supposed to get ridiculously hot (27°C), so I am glad the weather waited till I was not at work five days a week, so I can be sick as a dog at home instead. I'd rather not be sick at all, but better now while I'm on holiday than have to come home from work.

Here's another question from the Squeenix meme!

7. If asked for a single recommendation, which Square-Enix game would you recommend?

I mean, I am tempted to say FFXII, because that's my favourite of all time, but honestly I would I actually say NieR and/or The Last Remnant.

I mean, NieR will rip your heart out and stomp all over it, but that's also kind of why I'd rec it. And its soundtrack is an absolute banger. There isn't a track on there that I don't like, or that I got sick of hearing. Added plus is that you don't need to know anything about Drakengard to enjoy the game as, while it's a spin-off of one of the endings (E Ending), it doesn't have a lot of bearing on the actual story. I won't say any more about it, because I'd be tempted to talk spoilers and trust me: it is better to go into this game absolutely unspoilt.

I had a ball playing The Last Remnant (in spite of its flaws, of which there are a few), which is why I'd rec that one. And the soundtrack is awesome - and dynamic to the fights, so depending on your situation, depends on which track you'll hear. If you do decide to play it, get the PC version or the remaster, since they're improved over the original Xbox version, and make the game easier to some degree. Also you can recruit some of your enemies once you've beaten them, which you can't do in the Xbox version.
