    Default Random RPG Replay Urges

    I get it a lot. I'll be sitting at work and just think "I really want to play _____" Then soon it's gone and get back to whatever I'm doing.

    Usually it's FFIX.

    I think it's because RPGs are so time consuming that they leave a impact on me from dedicating so much time to them.

    Am I the only one who does this?

    I get random urges to play the first Final Fantasy game all the time. One of these days I'll give in.

    I get random urges to play FFVIII, Xenosaga, and Kingdom Hearts all the time. They were such a big part of my childhood, though, so it makes sense.

    This happens to me a lot, not just with RPGs though. Usually something reminds me that SMAC or Morrowind exists and then I want to replay them. Occasionally FF (usually FFX or some older FF) or Pokemon or something.

    The only reason I don't often act on these game-related urges is because I have other games I'm in the middle of playing or writing I should be doing or whatever.

    This is pretty much my life. "Oh I want to play this game again." I've already played it a million times how about something new SMURF

    They see me rolling. They hating, patrolling.
    Trying to catch me riding dirty.

    This is basically my life - moving from one RPG urge to the next. And I love replaying old games because they're free!​ Anytime I can procrastinate spending money on something new, that's awesome.

    Oh, all the time. I routinely change my current game that I'm playing - sometimes every month.

    It means I don't really complete games all that often!

    All the freaking time, which is why my backlog is so big cause I keep getting sidetracked by playing older games.

    It always bounces between Dark Souls, FFX and Vagrant Story. Dark Souls 2 will probably be added to the list soon too.

    Vagrant Story is on PSN. Should I buy it?
