Chrono Trigger...A game that is praised every time I read about it. And yet I could never get into it. Yikes, sounds like a disaster. Maybe it's a good thing I haven't properly given the series a go

Did I like it? I was filled with rage and giddy with excitement at the same time My grip on the DualSense was getting tighter every second.

I have. One of the best final chapters I have ever played. Oh and... I am so happy that I gave this series a chance. It now shares Metal Gear Solid's spot as my favourite video game series. Yakuza games are epic, funny, tragic, ridiculous and a whole lot of fun! They are not without flaws, but these are (most of the time) relatively small in comparison to the whole package. Edit: The song in the final credits...goosebumps I love these games!

And some of the most powerful words spoken in the series:

The moment Kiryu saw Haruka awake... Ohhhh, and Akiyama sticking with Kiryu Looks like this is the finale!

My mate recommended the Jujutsu Kaisen anime to me. I read a few chapters quite some time ago but found the drawing style to be way too messy and confusing. The anime is a lot better in that regard.

Now that I've dabbled around with the device a bit it's time actually focus on one game at a time instead of jumping between 6 games Think I'm gonna play through Flynn: Son of Crimson first. Played a few levels and it's a pretty fun 2D action platformer. I bought a few of those "revers bullet hell" games (what's their genre actually called? Bullet Heaven? Idle Roguelite?) and I should focus on one once I'm done with Flynn. The Halls of Torment prelude (i.e. Demo) is a lot of fun, might give this one a proper go soon! It goes without saying that I will always start a Slay the Spire: Downfall run here and there, though

Depending on how long the final 3 chapters take, I might finish this today. Can't wait to see how it ends. The huge secret of Hiroshima/Onomichi has yet to be revealed. By the way: Did I mention how freaking awesome the song Theory of Beauty is?

Started a co-op playthrough with a mate. We played for three hours straight Meet: Solus (me) - The Human Bard Koh (my mate) - The Orc Fighter And for now Astarion and Shadowheart. It started off really well. Fights went smoothly, exploration was great. And then...my mate just had to get close to that one spot in the Overgrown Ruins. He and Shadowheart crashed through the floor and engaged in a fight I went through the main entrance and joined the kerfuffle from behind. Thanks to Tactician difficulty screwing us, we suffered lots and lots of (critical) misses. Needless to say...it was a tough one But we pulled through. Given my mate's much more adult living situation (full-time job, pregnant wife) compared to mine, it's difficult to gauge how much time we'll have to play this. The first session was great fun, though. Hopefully our next isn't too far off! Welp...I have to work in 4 hours so...good night

I still have to play those. Well, I did start Wild Arms quite some time ago but... I couldn't get used to it...

Yup, a roller coaster of emotions. Me: "OOOOHHHHH, WHAT A GREAT REVEAL!" "It's finally coming together" "Hm...still...a lot of unanswered questions. "Saio Triad can go fuck itself" "Who are these people?" "THIS IS FOR HARUTO!" "YES, FUCK ALL YA'LL!" "AAAAAAND HE'S FLYING" And then this mo'fo shows up: I'll quote myself:

I fucking love these games. You go from a serious group conversation to a fucking hype battle for Haruto and then the little kid is being thrown around like a football And he loves it She sure is

Oh Haruka, what have you gotten yourself into

Finally continued with the story and boy, these games can hit hard Things are heating up now. Mysteries abound Can't wait to see where they're going with all of this. Kiryu seems to be getting angrier by the minute. Since I played Yakuza 7 (and knowing that Gaiden exists) I know that Kiryu will be fine, but I assume something pretty devastating happens at the end.

You deserve it!

Jet Moto? JET MOTO? HOLY SHIT. This game was a huge part of my childhood And Grandia, too Shame that they won't have trophy support, though Teardown is good fun, so far. Very therapeutic. Destroy and steal stuff. What's not to like? Dragon's Dogma: Dark Arisen...man, I bought this game for 2.50€ and I don't even remember how many times I gave it a try...always dropped it after an hour or two. I think I've played Superliminal on PC? At least a demo? Don't remember. Or maybe I've just seen trailers...will definitely give it another go, though. Eiyuden Chronicle: Rising...this is the prequel to the Suiokden-like game, right? IIRC, it wasn't very well received? The rest doesn't interest me

Yes. That is Owen Wilson. Now on PS+ Extra. Will give at a go after work

Definitely. Shantae Shantae: Risky's Revenge Shantae: Half-Genie Hero all have this transformation.

Now also on my Steam Deck, because I had to

Isn't that usually reserved for games with DLC? Man, I need to get back to it...but Larian recently revealed that they found a pretty groundbreaking way to improve performance. Think I'm gonna wait for that, even though I haven't had any major issues in Act 1

Urgh, gonna have a cystoscopy in two weeks :/ Not really thinking too much about it, but sometimes some thoughts do creep up. The doc has a theory for my issues and if it's confirmed, the cause can be anything from harmless to alarming. It's also a day before my flight to Milan. The procedure itself won't be an issue but depending on what the doc finds there might be one. Nothing I can do about it anyways. Gonna play some games while I wait (and work occasionally :p)

Yeah, I tried it with a guide. Took way too long to unlock the sub-story for the first lady. You also gotta do 100 clan battles, level up one member to 99 and do the RIZAP crap 12 times. I think I'm good. Gonna just go through the story now.

It really is...can't even bring myself to do it while watching something on the telly Eh, we'll see how it goes. Maybe I'll power through, maybe even the easiest/shortest Yakuza Platinum will stay away from my list just like all the others

I've played this for 9.5 hours since I got the Steam Deck and deleted my save file. It's still gaming crack It seems that there are way more secrets/characters/stages/etc. to find now. Haven't played this for a year and with the free updates and one more DLC, the content is pretty meaty Managed to unlock most power-ups currently available to me. Beat the first four stages, which I already knew from before. Now it's time for stage 5 (Capella Magna) this is a new one for me. I also played Whiteout and Lake Foscari. They offer unlockable weapons and characters that are quite strong.

Talk to ladies, buy them food and drinks. It's mindless. You need to max out their affection to unlock their substories which takes quite a lot of visits. And there are 5 of them.
