I recently finished kings field 2, one of the games FROM made prior to dark souls, loved it and will be trying out the other kings fields and shadow tower at some point in the future... however, in the meantime, im playing Secret of Mana.
I'm currently playing two games - One you've maybe nto heard of - King's Field 2 on the PS1, it's From Softwares Dark Souls before Dark souls was a thing, it's in first person like skyrim is but it plays much more slowly and methodical than that, i'm very much enjoying it and plan to play the...

Omg, you're quite right - how could I dishonour our lord and saviour Sir Clive Sinclair so badly!!???
Actually, we never had a speccy, it was the Amiga, with deluxe paint and monkey Island on 13 floppy disks for us but yes, Monty on the run, Manic miner/attic attack etc...Dizzy showed up on...
It was Goldeneye and Perfect Dark for me on that system :-D
I missed out on doom the first time around but thanks to source ports I've been able to catch up with Doom, heretic, hexen and Duke nukem

Used to play EVE online and lived in a wormhole for a while, but was difficult to keep it running with a low player count...
I played ff6 up to the midpoint - don't want to spoiler for anyone planning to play it, but shortly after setzer joins your team and you square off with kefka properly...never been too into JRPGs but certainly enjoying this one; a good old CRPG like Baldurs gate or Icewind dale...
NES was never popular here in the UK, it was microcomputers like zx spectrum, Sinclair and Amiga, my favourite Zelda is a link to the past followed by wind waker.
King's field, shadow tower and eternal ring were all made by from soft, the developer of the souls games, they're older and in first person but have a lot of the same mechanics and mood as the souls games do - think of them as proto-souls games; I would definitely recommend checking them out
It's actually my first final fantasy (and discounting secret of mana or lttp, I consider those action games) my first Jrpg, I have played wild arms and ff7 but I never got more than an hour or so in - the random battles generally put me off but this time I stuck with it and I must be in the...
