It’s hard to believe I own such an obscure RPG like Robotrek as a kid. I probably got it off a Toys r Us discount bin and with my love for RPG’s I had to have it. Never thought years later it would become highly sought after physically and much more appreciated.
Did you ever buy an obscure game that became wildly popular much later?
Anyone looking for a fun JRPG to play on mobile should check out Another Eden if you haven't already. It's been out for a while but I just discovered it & it's great to pick up & play for 30-60 minutes at a time. It has in-app purchases, but I have yet to find anything that requires spending money (although I will probably buy something so I don't feel guilty not giving the developers anything). It's easily up there with SQEX, Atlus, etc. quality.
Hey friends & JRPG fans! Looks like the western comic-inspired turn-based JRPG Battle Chasers: Nightwar is on sale for 70% off in the Nintendo eshop (at least in the US?)!
Had this on my wish list. Supposed to be a solid game, got some table top vibes too. Visually it looks amazing. At $40 for 30 hours, seemed steep - but $12? Fuck yeah!
March is nearing its end, so it's time to look back at what I have done!
Let's start with gaming: I started and completed Stray this month and it was a fascinating little game that was short and very enjoyable. You play as a cat and that by itself is jusr wonderful.
I played a lot of Balatro and it gave me the idea for my own cardgame, which I am actively working on.
Civ 6 is another mainstay. I managed to beat a game with Elizabeth in my fourth attempt!
I am still playing Alan Wake and I'm about 5 hours in now. It is fun and atmospheric, however the writing is sometimes hilariously bad. The FBI agent calling Wake by various writers names is the dumbest stuff so far. How would he even have heard about Lovecraft?
Also gave Unicorn Overlord a go, but didn't get enough time with it yet. So far, it's fascinating and I know I am going to love it.
Got Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden last week and that game is kinda amazing for focusing on the Adventure part of Action-Adventure. Very overlooked game!
Last push through Mementos is complete. Even killed the Reaper! All that’s left is wrap up the Royal version final palace and that will be it! I’m both ready and sad to see it coming to an end. What a game!!!
There's nothing else to do in #UnicornOverlord I did everything, did the last battle two times (we can do it as many times as we want) all quests, everything, and now I don't feel like playing anything 😔 Maybe continue my 2nd playthrough of #TriangleStrategy So, in case I need some more #Vanillaware in my life, which one of these games would you recommend me to play first? #videogames#atlus#jrpg#rpg#shareyourgames
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.
