Granblue Fantasy Relink Great visuals and music, likeable characters, engaging enough story (not the best GBF story compared to the gacha's main story or some events like Seeds of Redemption but not a snooze either), the character building is interesting, and some of the missions are...

I am playing Trails into Reverie, aka the fifth Trails of Cold Steel game. The story isn't as interesting to me as the first four games but at least it isn't anywhere near as infuriating either. There are no sidequests during the main story segments this time so you get a more concentrated story...

World of Wacraft Came back last month and checked out the Shadowlands stuff I missed and Dragonflight. Bought two more months of game time with the WoW token. I've been doing rated battlegrounds, RPing, and working on some other grinds. New underground zone arrives next week in 10.1. The WoW...

I bought the latest WoW expansion. Finished the content a couple days ago. Here's my review of Dragonflight: I intend to remain subbed for another month to check out the 10.1 patch, which will introduce a new underground zone, new quests, and a new raid. Once I finish the story and beat the...

@Aldarion that is a pretty unnerving design.

I don't collect anymore. I sold my N64 and my Gamecube several years ago. I have my PS2 and my XBOX and my Wii stored in the closet but I never use them. The controllers for the PS2 and the Xbox don't work anymore. I think that the RGB cables for one of my consoles broke as well (or RBY, can't...

Ring of Red is a mech SRPG set in an alternate Cold War timeline. The divergence point begins in August 1945, when Japan does not surrender after the dropping of the bombs. The Soviets aren't intimidated and invade Japan, claiming the relatively undefended North while the Americans are bogged...

I have finished Vanguard Bandits. Took me 12 hours to beat. It's a PS1 SRPG with Escaflowne-esque mechs. The game is 20 missions long, and splits into two different routes at chapter 4. You can pick whether to go down the kingdom route, or the empire route. Since there are hardly any JRPGs that...

I have finished Suikoden V. It's fine. The story started off pretty meh, but as it went on I started getting more into it. It peaked around the middle. Never became super invested in it like I was by the first three Suikoden games. I was also turned off by the generic modern anime character...

Vantage Master - 8/10 (Very Good) Finished this last night. It's a tactics game/SRPG where you play as a master who summons monsters (called Natials) and tries to slay the enemy master. The game looks aesthetically gorgeous. After each battle, you loot a totem off of the enemy summoner...

@ParadiseLost Did you drop Cold Steel? Too boring?

@ParadiseLost Favorite character in TX? Also, any background NPCs you liked?

You can play all classes on a single character. They have their level progression, and classes level up 2x as fast up until your highest level class. For example, you start as a lancer and level it up to 18 and decide you want to try out another class, like archer. Your archer would level up...

Finished FFXIV Endwalker's story. I give it a 5/10. Rushed, convoluted story that flip flopped on what it wanted to be. Is it a grim war story? Is it a magic highschool slice of life anime? Is it a bleak story about the end of the world? Or is it Kingdom Hearts? The story was very awkwardly...

That's super fast! Heads up: after you beat the final boss of the base game, there is still more content left. The EX+ version of the game added an epilogue DLC with additional content and it's pretty good. IIRC you just reload your end save to do that.

I played it 3 years ago and did not have any major technical problems from what I can recall. Could be that a new patch broke the game.

If you finish TX and liked it, I would recommend checking out Trails of Cold Steel 1 & 2. In fact, they're the game Falcom made right before TX and have a lot of similarities. Same people who did TX's soundtrack. Same gameplay of going around talking to NPCs in between combat sections. Like TX...

I quite liked TX. The soundtrack was pretty good. I liked the comfiness of going around town talking to the NPCs and following their lives. I liked a lot of the characters. The plot was sorta weak, and I'm not a fan of action combat, but the rest of the game made it up for me. Would be nice to...

Played this last year. Had performance issues on PC, despite using an RX 580. The game looks pretty hideous at 1920 x 1080 so I had to go for a higher 2560 x 1440 resolution, but it wound up meaning I had to put up with a choppy 30 FPS framerate. Dunno what performance is like on consoles. The...

I have the Sunrider games installed but haven't gotten around to them yet. The VN I was playing before was World End Economica, but it's such a slog (5 hours in and literally nothing has happened) that I'm probably going to drop it... so that'd leave Sunrider. How is it so far? Likes? Dislikes?
