Tokyo Mirage Sessions #FE Encore… BEAT! - Fun game! Campy af, but the combat is a blast! Goofy story, and the game had some minor annoyances, but it didn’t overstay its welcome.
Ultimately, a wonderful palette cleanser from Octopath Traveler 2 AND a perfect prep game for Shin Megami Tensei V: Vengeance next Friday.
@scribblemacher Yeah. It’s been interesting. Agnea’s final boss got me good, but I was under-leveled a touch. So did some tasks to get better weapons, did a little grinding, and boom, bobs your uncle. Next fight was easier. Hopefully when I get to the last one, I know it’s a long one, but hopefully we’ll all be good and ready.
Last night I was ready to start a new RPG. It’s been quite a while so I was in the perfect mood for it.
And since I watched that Ys video I really wanted to play an entry into the series.
Since I can’t restart 8 on PS5 yet, I decided to go with Memories of Celceta.
I only played the intro back in the day on Vita. Played for about 3 hours last night and I’m really enjoying it. Can’t wait to go home late tonight and play some more.
@faelim
Yeah, it started of quite slow for me as well, but I’m loving it now as it starts to get going.
Just beat the big fish last night.
Had to retry like 5 times as he kept kicking my butt. But it felt so good taking him down.
Looking forward to playing more tonight.
I just hope I can stay awake as I’ve been having a terrible time sleeping this past week. Not sure why.
Must be stress related.
I want to give the #JRPG genre a try. I have been thinking about this for more than a year and I eventually settled on #OctopathTraveler as the perfect JRPG (probably). And now there is that second dilemma: Should I play the first one or skip to the second one? The Internet claims the games are unrelated and the second one is simply better.
I used the Steam Spring Sale to buy A Short Hike and Kingdom Come: Deliverance, but today I was in the mood for something else and picked up Chained Echoes from GOG.
Rise of the Third Power, a turn-based #JRPG is on sale in the #Nintendo eshop for like $12USD
With reviews like, "For those with religious concerns, there is a BI character, who is in your group." and "I don't like propaganda in my games; It's disgusting behavior. Keep your politics away from me."
I wish we got way more videos like this.
Instead we are drowning in videos that go “here’s why I hate the games that you enjoy and you should stop liking them!”, or something that has the same vibe.
I still need to find a copy of Blue Reflection myself, but it’s certainly not cheap these days. 😔
@COMPU73E
Haha. 😅
I know how that feels as I’ve been playing Sekiro this past week. 👀
Very surprised about Trails though.
I would think you’d really like it.
Then again, we all have our own reasons for not clicking with certain games, films or well anything really.
I just like getting positive impressions from people on things that a lot of people don’t like, since I do tend to have weird taste in things at time.
I just hope when I get to Trails that I love it though.
@OutofPrintArchive the Trails games died for me with Cold Steel III and IV. I wasn't really a fan of the switch to full 3D with the first CS game, and I really didn't like the direction they took the series in with the writing and characters, so much so that I don't have that much interest in the new games (I skipped Reverie and might pick up Daybreak, dunno)
I totally get why people like them, but for me Sky and Crossbell were too hard to follow and I wish they'd kept the isometric graphics
“Some of the titles that are considered classics are rather difficult to obtain and play in the modern gaming landscape, so seeing those titles getting high-quality remakes and having the experience passed down to a newer generation of players is something that should be welcomed by both creators and players,” Star Ocean: The Second Story R producer Kei Komaki says. 🙏
