idk if it's the repetitive nature of the gameplay or the poor combat or what

Yeah I've given up on it for now and started FC New Dawn

Chapter 3 for some reason really wants you to do a bunch of fighting enemies and I've no idea why because it's absolutely the worst part of the game

I was disappointed with Sly 3 but Sly 1 is a fun although short game and Sly 2 just owns all around.

do you want a turn based rpg or an action rpg?
are you a story liker or a story ignorer?

those are the minimum 2 clarifications you always have to make if you actually want fitting jrpg recommendations.

It's the Twilight Town chapter in TTYD the worst chapter? It's constant back and forth from one end of the zone to the other! I think I'm heading back to the Steeple to fight the final boss of the area.

actually chest pain is slowly going away and replacing itself with heartburn. i think i'm developing GERD.

I've been trying to break myself of the habit of eating shortly before bed, because my body has apparently decided that I don't get to do that any more. What little dairy I consume and alcohol are probably next on that list.

I was getting strange chest feelings a few months ago and then I realized it was how I was sitting on the couch, it was compressing my neck and cutting off circulation to my arms and causing tingles/pains. Switching it up has stopped said pains, crisis averted and I can continue to ignore basic medical advice and probably stroke out in 10 years.

I got three teeth pulled last year after finally getting some dental insurance. They drugged me up so I didn't feel anything and I was eating solid food the next day. I do need to go back for a root canal and to get a bunch of cavities filled, but first thing on the list are new glasses and I figured I'd work my way down from there.


uh video games are fun too, if only i could drink a magic potion in real life :sigh:

you don't get to call someone a coward for not playing a game that hit significant mainstream popularity

I beat Ratchet and Clank Tools of Destruction! :toot: When I started I was grooving on the graphics and the gameplay but at the close my favourite bit was actually the writing. It was like playing a Pixar movie with memorable characters, lots of laughs and some real heart underneath. And it ended on a cliffhanger aaaaaa come back Clank don't leave Ratchet all alone! :supaburn:

Next game up is Tomb Raider Anniversary!

I still like Persona games but I don't really recommend em anymore. 5 is just really bad at being a Persona game. And yea gently caress hashino.

I just started Trails of Cold Steel and while it's bad at being a Persona game it's good at being a Trails game. It's weird tho cause stuff will come up and I'll feel kinda lost even though I played Trails in the Sky and god I can't imagine how lost you would be if you haven't played TitS first lol

every persona game is bad at being a persona game, the last two modern persona games billed themselves as stories they were the complete opposite of and vanilla persona 3 has some of the worst social links in the series without playing as femc

also cold steel doesn't really try to be a persona game? it borrows the hang out stuff but it has none of the time management

Anyone who wants to play a Persona game at this point will discover them fine on their own, it does not need anyone's help.

I still really like P4 but it's not really a big deal that it's lost its luster to a lot of folks/conversations.

Oh poo poo, you're playing something I could actually comment on.

If you've played the original game try to get a save that unlocks the developer commentary from the get go, it's pretty interesting.

I've only played the first three levels or so sadly. Still, glad to hear it's got one, I'll look it up on Youtube after :D

e: Glad to see Insomniac ensured no penguins were harmed during the making of R+C: TOD. Good to see game devs focusing on the important issues.

Yeah. I went back to SMT4 recently since I never beat it and it's cool too but I'm missing all the great mechanical tweaks the Apocalypse made. And for a game where dying/failure is fairly frequent, it has the LONGEST game over process of any game I can remember, which gets annoying.
