Role-Playing Grandmother Misses Release of Dragon Quest VI

That is most unfortunate and such a sad tale to hear. I hope she ends up wherever she wants if there is an afterlife, doing what she loves most.
I think this serves a valuable lesson to game companies though:
1. Cut the insanity act, you can release games within, oh I don't know, less than a decade. Counts doubly so simple remakes and region ports.
2. You had better hurry up on your "magnum opus" or whatever it is; push your luck and your fanbase (e.g. us) will be dead before release. Crank up the depression meter to eleven procrastinators, thanks a lot...
This article does have me seriously wonder if similar experiences were tragically shared while waiting for Starcraft 2.

We all die before something amazing happens, we can only hope that we've seen plenty of amazing things along the way. Regardless of what you might see, I don't think that living forever would be all it was cracked up to be.

THERE IS AN IMPOSTER AMONG US!
OT: That sucks for her. And I would hate to miss an elder scrolls game as well.
I'm certain I was first.ultrachicken said:

Where's your other avatar???Irridium said:
[sub]The new one's still cool and kinda speaks for itself to people asking you that xD[/sub]
That is sad news and just goes to show her dedication, she will not die in vain for she can play it in the after-life! Maybe they'll bury it with her?
And now time to call my own grandmother.
That's...well, today is officially Monday now.
Thanks for the depressing news. But I hope she gets the golden copy in heaven.

That's really touching.
I hope I live to see a legit rerelease of Earthbound, perhaps in portable form.

Don't get me wrong, I didn't mean it as an insult towards your grandmother- I just saw some hilarity in a Goth saying "they will be depressed".AmayaOnnaOtaku said:
