It sounds good, I’ll check it out when I get a PS5.

Re: The Backlog Check-in Vol. 302: 10/14/23: Sonic Superstars/Spider-Man 2/Super Mario Bros. Wonder Edition

Do you have any idea why it’s not grabbing you despite liking Persona 3 and 4? ... Also, I don’t like the theme of being sneaky thieves as much either. That might be it. Playing as sneaky masked thieves isn't very appealing unless we're talking about the Sly Cooper gang. :lol: Also, the cat thing i...

Re: The Backlog Check-in Vol. 302: 10/14/23: Sonic Superstars/Spider-Man 2/Super Mario Bros. Wonder Edition

Oddly, as much as I enjoyed P3 and P4, I do not have any interest in P5. Something about it just doesn't grab me at all even though I've heard it's good. Do you have any idea why it’s not grabbing you despite liking Persona 3 and 4? Could it be the somewhat over the top flashy, slick and stylistic ...

I’ve been enjoying Persona 5, but it’s the original game and not Royal so I’m going to quit playing it and buy Royal since Royal has gameplay improvements and added characters/content that are significant enough to make it worth getting despite having the original game.

Re: The Backlog Check-in Vol. 301: 10/7/23: Forza Motorsport/Lords of the Fallen Edition

Thanks for the impressions! While it sounds like it's not perfect, it still seems like something I'd like to check out. I see there's a physical version too, so I'll add that to my wish list. :) Wow, that game looks great. Who woulda thunk something with such a goofy name would be Studio Ghibli plu...

Baldo: The Guardian Owls???? https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=W8WgU-HXtmk&pp=ygUNYmFsZG8gdHJhaWxlcg%3D%3D I've looked at Baldo a few times, it looks gorgeous - how does it play Phase? It definitely looks good with a cartoonish and colorful aesthetic similar to Studio Ghibli animated movies. The ga...

Re: The Backlog Check-in Vol. 300: 9/30/23: Assassin’s Creed Mirage/Disgaea 7: Vows of the Virtueless/NHL 24 Edition

You're not wrong about the mute avatar, and the overall story isn't anything to write home about. It is ridiculous how you become the leader of every faction and whatnot. But the world and its characters are very interesting to me. The Seelie/Unseelie Fae are unique, and there are lots of interesti...

Re: The Backlog Check-in Vol. 300: 9/30/23: Assassin’s Creed Mirage/Disgaea 7: Vows of the Virtueless/NHL 24 Edition

It's funny for me with Amalur. I remember playing and enjoying it, but can recall next to *nothing* about it, lol. Because it’s not a very memorable experience. The graphics, gameplay and combat are all good, but the story and characters are mid. The story is too lore heavy IMO, and you play as an ...
