The FF forums used to be a lot more active, I guess the slowdown in releases had some to do with that.

Blogs are cool! There's people I interacted with there I probably otherwise wouldn't have, even just talking about games.

EoEO is still a pit of intolerance and immaturity, and likely always will be. Except for the personal life threads, those are still really great and meaningful.

I've always come here to talk about games, and the tone of the arguments has definitely changed. It used to be so much fun going back and forth with novel-length responses over insignificant plot points or game mechanics. Maybe I just grew up but now the discussions are more cynical, the arguments sometimes cruel, and even when we talk about nostalgic childhood topics a few devolve into an almost passive-aggressive pissing contest. I still enjoy talking to a lot of people here so don't take it the wrong way, I've just noticed some people take things a tad too seriously.
