In the old days, video games rarely had strong stories or engaging characters. Sure, plenty of old school RPGs had a "fight the bad guy and conquer evil" plotline, but we've come to expect more from our games as they've evolved. However, not all games can be winners in the plot department, and sometimes, the blame can be placed squarely on a lame character. Whether they get on your nerves for being poorly introduced, too chatty, or useless overall, these characters are all prime examples of when good games give us bad characters.
EK Cooling allegedly has slipped itself into a hot soup of seemingly endless financial woes, where it has not paid its staff, suppliers, and contractors for many months as the company is facing liquidity problems and a surplus of inventory left unsold, stuck in the warehouse for a more extended period. Gamers Nexus investigated these claims made by former and current personnel, where he found trails of unpaid bills lasting as long as three to four months and unpaid raises that accumulated for almost a year.
EK Water Blocks has two entities—a Slovenian-based headquarters and a US-based subsidiary, EK Cooling Solutions. Steve narrated the series of events in detail, stating that the company was reportedly irresponsible and negligent regarding payment. Consequently, partners and employees are forced to share the burden of alleged mismanagement. It all begins with its extensive range of products, leading to a surplus of goods. EK has over 230 water blocks, 40 liquid cooling kits, 85 reservoirs, 40 pumps, 73 radiators, and 212 miscellaneous accessories.
Yes this is not about video games directly but indirectly this will impact the pc gaming/workstation space hard.
This company is massive one of two in the water cool space so if it goes poof then thousands out there have no spare parts or half built computers.
SO yeah i know not about a video game but think of it as amd leaving the pc space but this is ekwb that could be leaving water cooling in the pc space
Jayz2cents a supporter of there products also has issues

INDIE Live Expo, Japan’s premiere online digital showcase series , will debut never-before-seen games & content updates across more than 100 titles on May 25th.
Good list.
I agree w/ most of them.
Some I'm on the edge about.
I mean I never really 'hated' Sheva, as much as indifferent to her,
She was always 'just there' you know?
As far as Hope goes, I agree 100%.
Star Ocean characters were always annoying to me. (including the ps2 one, till the end of time?)
Cloud? I couldn't care much. All I know he sure whined alot, but I'm still mainly 'indifferent' to him. His QQing did make the game unbearable at times.
But it still was a great JRPGs.
Though, it's hardly the highlight of the FF franchise for me.
