Play On: Lighting x Louis Vuitton

The sun had already set. It must have been around 7pm, but who knows. Regardless of, I could clearly see my brother's reflection and my own on our old bulky 90s tv. In a blink of an eye though, we were immersed in Zanarkand, and we had front row seats in the Blitz Ball game that was going down. I don't remember how or when the hype was created for that moment. All I remember is that my brother and I couldn't wait to play Final Fantasy X (when I say "play", playing for me meant sitting beside my brother and watching him play. All because I wanted to truly grasp every moment of this chocobo filled world.)

Now fast forward to 2010, a flat screen TV and me screaming relentlessly at the motorcycle foe inside the screen that was brutally killing me, thus leaving me to give up on the game altogether. Maybe I should've stayed in the sidelines when it came to RPGs.... But how could I when Final Fantasy XIII was before me and this time I remembered the hype all too well? (and secretly wanted to be playing what was supposed to be Final Fantasy versus XIII and is now Final Fantasy XV. Beggars can't be choosers, I guess.) Yes, it was all fun and games in 1999 when controlling Tidus in his asymmetrical overalls (Versace, I see you), but in the 21st century we had a new heroine who kicked ass in a mini skirt and made pastel pink hair a thing before it was even a thing. Kudos to Square Enix's character designer Tetsuya Nomura who was a true visionary when it came to character details and personal style.

But what happens when two visionaries pair up?
