So hopefully I’m doing this right! :) (I’m still new to some of this so haven’t figured out things yet! I did ask this via Mastodon also, but wanted to add more detail to my answer!)
Is there a computer game, a moment in a game, a boss fight, or a specific moment that you would love to experience fresh with no prior memory of it?
Mine would have to be The Seat of Sacrifice fight in Final Fantasy XIV, one of if not my most favourite fights in the game to date.
The mechanics work so well and tie into everything that’s been happening, and then that moment where <redacted> (I refuse to spoil it!) shows up to help and then leaves with I think what made me cheer SO MUCH the first time I did the fight.
The music, the song To The Edge has become one of my most played songs in my entire music library (alongside Endwalker - Footfalls and Shadowbringers) as it is quite frankly perfect for the fight. and when they revealed that Soken had been battling cancer and wrote it whilst in hospital…
I adore the fight all together, and cannot help but say the lines in the cut scene bit in the middle every time I do the fight, and will never ever get bored of it.
So what moments in a game would you love to complete again with no prior experience?
Confronting the great Dragon Grogori in dragons dogma. The entire game up to that point kept telling you that your fate was tied to his and that if you should want your heart back you must confront and defeat a creature considered invincible by all. When you first approach him he entices you with a wish of power stating you will become grand Duke over a kingdom and he will dissapear as if you had actually slain him all for the price of your loved ones life. There is so much more to the full battle but even just the beginning felt more personal than most final bosses.
