: Pay off the debt
I am gonna admit, I played like 6 days of Pikmin (the first) wondering when did the debt kicked in before noticing its Pikmin 2 for the IZGC. Felt like 2 has just slightly better pathfinding either way, gently caress water forever, I'll do the rest of the treasures later.

I should start Okami already, too.

I had thought about picking it but I figured everyone's already played it since Sega rereleased it so many times.

: Defeat Ninetails
: Feed all animals
: Beat the game
: Collect all 100 stray beads (PLATINUM)

What a great ending to a great game.

Been meaning to replay this for years, especially since my girlfriend played it a couple of years ago and made me super nostalgic, then bought it for the Steam Deck a few weeks before it got picked as a Game Club game, so clearly the stars aligned.

I think overall the first arc is the best, but the decline in quality isn't particularly dramatic - it's just that the first arc is perfectly paced and culminates brilliantly. The second is a little more uneven and has some really annoying parts, and the story/pacing is a bit more all over the place (the entire ghost ship segment is fun but there's literally no reason for it to be in the game lol). The third arc is just... really short and feels like a bit of an afterthought, but it's still fun and the little Poncle village is great.

Re-fighting all the bosses at the end kind of sucked, wish it had been a real dungeon rather than fighting Orochi for a third time (about an hour after the second time as well), that's a far too long and plodding boss fight to repeat although it's great once. Not a big deal and the final boss / ending more than makes up for it.

Okami
