I am very much a creature of habit. I found my preferred genre of games in 1997 when I laid my hands on Final Fantasy VII. However, it was not love at first play. It took a frustrated break and a determination to understand what I was doing to develop that love. When I finished it, I knew that the JRPG would be the type of game that I would seek. I knew then too that Square would have my loyalty. In looking at my library from the PSOne and PS2 eras, there are a few different genres strewn in as well. There are my fighting days in Soul Blade and Tekken. I would cringe as a “backseat” player to the Resident Evil series. Farming was fun with Harvest Moon… and cooking with the Wonder Chef in the Tales series makes an appearance as well. It is clear, however, that Square dominated my decision making in buying games.
