Plus, if go online to troubleshoot console controller use, everyone is too busy being an ass to actually offer help ("why wouldn't you want to use a mouse? n00b bot lolzrofl").
I often consider leaning to PC (as long as I can bring my 360 controller), to the point that I purchased (in ignorance) The Witcher and STALKER to blow up my low tech laptop. I want to upgrade to a legit platform, but the price of admission has stopped me in my tracks.
Not that I'm expecting to afford next-gen consoles either; I'm basically stranded on X360/DS island... not a bad place to be.
Then there was Legend of Dragoon.
I remember when I saw the TV ad (in all it's 20XX CG glory) and thought the entire game would have that visual quality (thought the same thing about FF VII). It also made me painfully aware of my inability to enjoy (or finish) RPGs once reaching their final chapters.
I'd still say I fall in the "love it" category though.#1UPbit
Breath of Fire IV...
That just put some coal in the reminisce-train. I only watched my cousin play it, but it was one of my first experiences with RPGs and to this day it still shapes my expectations for everything else in the genre (which may be why I dislike so many RPGs this generation).
