Ys IX really picks up in chapter 4, it starts to feel like the previous Ys games a little more with you finally getting to leave the city and traverse the more organic outskirts surrounding it. The dungeons also get better, and you get Anemona/Doll who is a great character who kind of reminds me of ...

Phase, this crpg character creation ish is scaring the hell out of me! So many choices, such analysis paralysis :o ! I ran right back to the safety of Ishin. I need to be brave though, Midnight Suns taught me that this could be the genre for my old ass. I ain't good at none of these character actio...

Still really enjoying Ys anyway, so I'll just be focussing on that until I get Souldiers swapped around. I liked Ys 9. It was cozy as hell. I’m liking Ys IX enough to currently have a Krysha/White Cat avatar (she’s adorable), but it hasn’t been appealing to me quite as much as Ys: Memories of Celce...

I am all over the place fam. Ys 8, Trails of Cold Steel, Tokyo Xanadu, Shadowrun Returns, Valhalla, Ishin, Rogue Galaxy...I just don't know how to spend the rest of my gaming summer. Too many choices, I made the mistake of dabbling too much. Now I don't know what to stick with. Oh well, good proble...

I started up Max : The Curse of Brotherhood which I pulled from my Steam backlog. It's an interesting puzzle platformer made in 2014 about a boy who wishes his little brother away and then must retrieve him after his wish comes true. Its central mechanic so far is a magic pen that can both erase ob...

How do you like Ys IX so far? It's a bit of a slow starter, but once you get your first party member it really opens up. The combat becomes much more interesting, since different enemy types are weak to different types of attacks (aka different party members) and you can swap members on the fly. Bu...

I’ve been playing PGA Tour 2K21, and I was enjoying it enough to get PGA Tour 2K23 which I figured would be even better since it’s the next game in the series. I was wrong. It’s basically PGA Tour 2K21.5. The additions that it offers are minimal at best, and it plays worse than 2K21. In fact, I thin...

Sooooo...I don't hate Valhalla? Especially after seeing what some of the later combat offers after watching a beginner's guide (because have you seen that terrifying skill tree? Yikes). It's story is non-existent from what I can tell after 3 hours (haven't hit the title splash screen yet...) but it...
