I had the itch to play some Final Fantasy VIII (my favorite FF game) and I decided to fuck around with a new emulator since Mednafen is a bit jank on my old laptop I use. Anyway I downloaded the duck and shit, blows me away! It's UI is 1:1 set up just like PCSX2 and super easy to use. It scans for bios and game files, has a little library that uses pictures for your games like pcsx2 does, and it's even got shaders, nice.

Can't see myself ever needing to download another psx emulator ever again after this.

I think I have Stockholm syndrome because retroarch is just so comfy now.

It helps that they added auto save an auto load for save states so I just launch the game from my launcher, then close it with a button combination back to the launcher, and I never have to go through those awful menus.
