  • Akio wishes he had a better relationship with his reserved father Akira. One day Akira suddenly quits his job and retires without giving out any explanation to the family. Thinking it could be a good tool to be close to his father, Akio gives him software of online game "FINAL FANTASY XIV".

    So, for those who don't know, this is based on a true story, told in a blog by Akio's real life counterpart, known as his FFXIV character name Maidy Maidy, where he told the story of how he reconciled with his father by introducing him to FFXIV to bond with him. It was a massive success in the japanese FFXIV community, to the point where the producer caught wind of it, loved it and befriended Maidy, and a 7 episodes series was created, which is on Netflix. The movie was shot later, which still follows the plot of the series and the blog but is more condensed.
    Sadly, Maidy died in november of 2020 from bowel cancer. He was a fan of Gundam, just like the FFXIV producer, and I like to think, I don't have confirmation though, I like to think that the newest healer job Sage is a homage to Maidy and his love for Gundam.

Most adults I know quit video games when they started to have families or when the families don't have enough income. Now people just play games with betting element in the hope to strike a jackpot.

      I have a gamer dad, I grew up playing so any games and going to arcades and go karts over the years it was awesome but I didn't live with him till I was a teenager. sadly most of the arcades died out.
      he has two custom arcade machines in his man cave basement that has a lot of emulators on it (2600+ games in each arcade.)
      He had to retire like 2+ years ago because he had a heart attack so now he just does little projects around his house, he was a maintenance worker for 20+ years and I'm glad he has relaxation because he worked since he was 15 years old and he's 50+ years old now and I love my dad to death.

    in some way --- i did this with my son.
    i was working in another city - one week and be home the next and so on --- whenever i had chance, i played with him...
    smite, LoL, lotro, swtor... many hours...
    It was fun.
    it was a chance to have a good connection, while being away from home.
