Yeah Rune Factory is kind of hard to pin down into a genre. It has the story of a JRPG, the combat of a diablo clone, farming&crafting from harvest moon and NPCs from a waifu dating sim.

If your into systems I suggest Romancing SaGa 2 & 3 :getin:

Romancing Saga 3 is $8 right now and mighty tempting. But I was also going to get the CrossCode and Hyrule Warriors: AOC expansions. Also eyeballing Saga Frontier which is also on sale. Haven't played that one in over 20 years. So many drat games.

Xenology is an unnatural mixture of science fiction and formal logic. At its core is a flawed assumption...

I hate non-linear games and BoTW is my favorite game of all time, right next to FF6.

Definitely give it another shot.

This is insane

it makes total sense in the old games that didn't have autosaves and took your weapons away when you died. if you fail a mission by dying or getting busted you respawn with nothing and have to go to ammunation and buy more guns before going back to the mission start point. there's no reason to do that instead of just reloading your save and heading straight back to the mission

I agree in general (I think it's a solid 7/10), but for the second part of your post I pose an interesting question: Is it more or less of a Zelda than Zelda II: The Adventures of Link?

Which game is the Doki Doki Panic of the Zelda franchise?

I used to rent Mutant League Football for the Genesis from Silver Screen Video, our former local video and game rental chain. It was a fun game that I had a lot of fun with which surprised me because I don't like sports. Thanks for reading my opinion
