I was watching but I wasn’t home; I usually only show up here if I’m watching alone at home.

Maybe it’s because I’m a Portuguese fan but I was on edge the whole time! I wish it had been more boring for me 😂 I was shouting Diogo Costa’s name at the end



I’m not usually one to complain about refs or (un)called fouls, but this game is ridiculous.

Ronaldo gets his shirt obviously yanked and held for several second in penalty area? Yellow for Ronaldo, because he complained. No VAR.

Holding in the middle of the field against Georgia? Yellow for Portugal.

Light foot touch against Georgia in Portugal’s penalty box? VAR; pen for Georgia.

At the end of the day it’s a just game and it’s meant to be fun, but this just takes away all the fun from the game.



Watching Portugal play is always so frustrating. It doesn’t matter how good you are if you can’t score; all the other teams need is one good chance and we are immediately in hot water.


Damn, that sucks. One of the Turkish players fell on his face though, which was funny.


I was just thinking to myself “why would you shoot from there with so many teammates around”, and then it just went in.


Perhaps not very patient gamer, but I think I’ll give Another Crab’s Treasure a go.

It’s very hard for me to feel motivated to play new games nowadays, but that one did spike my interest - seems more fun than Elden Ring tbh, which kinda feels like a generic souls-like - and it’s got great reviews and isn’t too expensive, so I think I’ll try it out.


I know what you mean, I felt the same way when I first saw it, and even when I started playing. But the concept intrigued me, so I kept going, and after a while I got used to the art style. If the concept of the game appeals to you, I’d still recommend you give it a try.


Final Fantasy 6. There are technically several protagonists, but the one with the better claim to “main protagonist” is a woman.

Also, Heaven’s Vault isn’t an old game, but it’s not very well known or talked about, so I’ll throw it in anyway.


Haha, well, to each their own, but the way I see it:

The second has a skill system that I like more than the first one, and it starts to have more of a semblance of a story. The NPCs in the first one basically just exist to tell you to go to place A, then B, and so on. To be honest, I couldn’t even finish the first one.


Like others have said, there’s no reason to play in order, but to be more specific:

  • If you ask someone what their favourite FF is, 90% of people will answer something between 6 and 10, so you should probably start with one in that range.

  • 1 is probably not worth playing at all, it hardly even has a story and is very simple.

  • 2 is better, but I would say 3 is where it really starts to get good.

  • 4 and 5 are also very liked and popular.

  • 12 doesn’t have the best story, but it’s good and it has a lot of people’s favourite combat system.

  • 13 isn’t bad, but a lot of people didn’t enjoy it. I hardly hear people talk about it nowadays, but maybe that’s just me.

  • 15 is probably more liked than 13 but it also gets a lot of criticism. It’s quite modern, though, so it’s probably one of the easiest to get into for most people.

  • 11 and 14 are MMOs. If you like MMOs, you should probably choose 14 because 11 is quite old and doesn’t have a lot of players.


EDIT: Forgot to mention 16 because it just came out, but from what I hear a lot of people like it, so it may be a good entry point, although it’s console exclusive.
