I finished Final Fantasy VII back in 1999, and it left a huge, JRPG-shaped hole in my life. I desperately needed another game to play that could hit that same vibe, scratch that same itch. But then I was only 12 years old, and guns were cool.
So I bought Rainbow Six and, while it was an awesome game, it didn't come close to relieving my itch. It was only a couple of years later, when I discovered Breath of Fire IV, that I had relief for a few glorious weeks.
