If you’re able to lay the groundwork for victory ahead of time, your opponents won’t be able to do anything to stop you....

We were about ten then, so our humour wasn’t exactly high-bar. It was the first taste of an RPG I ever had and something about it must have stuck with me, because when I saw a magazine article aboutFinal Fantasy 8, I ripped the page out, gave it to my parents, and begged them to get me it for my birthday....
