I figured, but still, platting those games is hard as hell. Never finished the grind in 2

I never beat DQH1, but I got pretty far into it. I should pick it up again, I loved the more strategic approach. I felt like I was thinking about the overall battlefield and objectives way more than in Hyrule Warriors.

Overall I think I liked the first game better for that very reason. You HAVE to collect/use monster medals to win most of the stages since it's got a tower defense kinda thing going. There's either none or very few of those levels in 2, which makes it more like a classic musou game but lessens the need for monster medals. Yangus is a beast in the first game as well

yea ok

the grind in 2 is so ridiculous. 1's was a lot but never overbearing & the plat was fun to work towards. 2 is just wild

It's very similar to the Orochi 2 plat, which involves grinding weapon proficiency for all 200 characters which I did in 2009 while watching the entire series of Lost.

i don't particularly love tower defense (or musou really) but yeah that combo really worked for me

I'm going to take a self-care day off from working when this is out and stock up on the good noms, some drinks, a couple of brews. I'm hyped. After that I'll play as gaming life coach Tim Rogers recommends: an hour or so in the evening, after taking a bath, before going to sleep.

I didn't turn any of these on before starting so I don't think I can flip them on anywhere. But yea if you start with them you can turn them off at churches.

Just finished my preload on steam, I was originally contemplating ps4 + vita as prime comfygamer setup, but I realized that i can also stream to my laptop and tv, and that its liek 17 dollars cheaper on greenmangames so I just did that.
