  Fire Emblem: New Mystery of the Emblem (the Japan only one)

  I was going to try to blind ironman like FE11, on the first Hard difficulty setting, but while losing my healers in chapter 2 and 3x due to silly boss moving and ambush reinforcements was funny, losing two seemingly important characters in turn 2, because of a Thief you can’t kill in 1 turn without using a staff, was not. (They ended up not saying anything in the postbattle cutscene anyways, lol)

  I’ll still try not to reset, as per usual in FE (I LIKE losing units and trying out replacements), but not if I lose out on recruitable characters because I didn’t figure out the puzzle solution for the first 3 turns. I did kill Matthis because he suicided into me, but fuck that guy.

  To clarify, I meant that I’m fine with multiple things not being 10/10 (I was thinking of Metaphor as a 9/10 across the board) as long as some one thing is, like just the ending or just gameplay. I’m not consisent with that though anyways, I thought that Dark Souls 1 really does have 10/10 world exploration early on, yet I don’t like it because of a lot of other problems. It’s all really just gut feelings in the end, it was the best way I could explain why Metaphor feels like it’s missing something.

  Personally, I actually gave it a negative review. The exploration generally is very fun, but so much of the levels, activities, combat ranged from unimpressive to infruriating. It’s basically carried by just being open-world Sonic, which is a formula for success.

  I actually enjoyed the open-world HUB of Shadow Generations, and the game as a whole, much more. In fact, that game probably set my expectations too high, even knowing Frontiers was infamously janky.

  In order, from the first? I have only played W3, but I do have the classics on the backlog, or at least W2.

  Continuing Metaphor: ReFantazio. It’s the most consistently polished game Atlus made (that I played) in years, though maybe SMT VV has a chance once I get to it.

  My only complaint is that it doesn’t have any 10/10 aspect that I’d love, most of my favourite games are somewhat flawed anyway, as long as they have that special aspect that clicks. But then, Persona 3 had nothing like that until the endgame, so there’s still time for it to surprise me.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What's the game you play when nothing else sounds good?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I started reading casually, currently Harry Potter to see what the fuss was about.

  And I guess TV shows and anime too for years, but I usually only watch these while eating.

  Yakuza 0 goes through all the emotions with its storytelling: you start by singing karaoke, then become a fugitive, you go bowling, lose a friend, watch a dirty video…

  Also, holy shit, most of you guys missed the point.

  Though you DO actually fight a god in Yakuza 4 as a sidequest.

  According to google, they need to birth one calf a year after a 9 month pregnancy, so they are pregnant 3/4 of their adult life, that sounds close enough to constant. Also, did you need to make 5 different comments?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Patient gamers, which games have you discovered/played this week?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Started Trauma Center 2 and 7th Dragon 2020, both sequels to games I played last year. The first one I only played for 10-20 minutes so far though, the latter would probably be unbearable without turbo mode via emulation. Actually, 7th Dragon DS already was, but the story and setting is mildly neat, and I might be hungry for games with more party building. If you fast forward to the dragon/boss fights it’s alright.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Patient gamers, what are your favorite OSTs?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Hard pick because I listen to a game or series for a while, then another. Just today I went and listened to a lot of Sonic tracks, which I do once every few months. I guess Atlus games (SMT, Persona, EO), Metal Gear Rising, Ace Attorney, TWEWY are in the lead off the top of my head, but after a month I might give a different answer. My relaxing music playlist is mostly arrangements of Etrian Odyssey 1+2, so let’s go with that.

  Don’t we help bee populations by building homes for them?

  Also, and I did wonder about this, what do homestock want out of life more than food, getting laid, and taking a walk or run? I think even the smarter ones like octopuses just want to get food and live until making kids.

  My sleep paralysis demon was a black cat, and it stepped on my balls, causing astonishingly realistic pain
