As an accountant and finance person I promise you “business major” and c-suite are not one in the same here…most of us are never allowed to rise that high due to nepotism and we’re just chugging along trying to make a living the same as the devs. I’d love to work for a company where the emphasis wasn’t on this short term ensuitication BS. It isn’t like entry and mid level accounting and finance folks are the ones pushing for this most of this nonsense. We just get dictated all the bs from the top and report/forecast the numbers.

I remember when I first heard about Oculus on I think kickstarter… I thought it was cool.

Then I heard Facebook was buying it and I just wrote it off and knew I’d never have interest in it again. Bought by the wrong type of company

Lot of final fantasy characters I like but an underrated one I always liked was Kuja from FFIX

Knew he was predestined to die and still chose to fight against his creators to defeat them.

Had not read that myself lol

Tad Williams low key you get no GOT or GRRM without him. If you ever read the memory, sorrow and thorn series of books you basically see where much of the inspiration for GOT came from

Which is going to bite them in the ass in 3-5 years when Toyota, VW and a few others roll out the solid state batteries

I remember ff4 being turn based or at least the same menu maybe active time where if your too slow npcs will act but it’s been awhile

FF12 had some bullshit chest near the beginning of the game… If you opened it you lost the ability to 100% the game and get the Zodiac spear ( reportedly some ability to get one in a very tedious grunts fashion but it’s been ages)

Basically the straw that broke the camel’s back for me with ff… The games story and combat was already a let down after they dropped the turn based combat like all of them ff1-ff10

But yeah generally I dislike many soft lock mechanics or illogical things that punish you for just playing the game… Oftentimes these were put in games just to sell strategy guides.

I stopped liking final fantasy once they abandoned it… Literally last game I played was 12.

I’ll chime in that a degree in accounting or finance can get you far… Most here will mention engineering/medical/programming. They also will likely bemoan the finance and accounting folks they work with as useless.

I’ll agree that due to many burrecratic choices c-suite leadership make there are a ton of inefficiencies but there is always a ton of work to be done and the skills can transfer to quite a bit of companies… Even very large corporations just end up having horribly inefficient processes and constant churn in leadership switches it up a lot… So if your someone who knows accounting and finance well and can think learn to bridge the never ending gap in tools and people requesting data you can do well.

This was back when everything square made was gold

Then right around square became square enix and finished ffx it all just went downhill
