What chapter are you currently at now in FE Engage? I'm still saved at the beginning of the "Retaking the Castle" battle. I've been taking my sweet time with Engage, and I'm doing every last thing I can think of to stay on top of character development and enhance my entire party's capabilities and attributes.

Okaaayyyy... Not so much then, I guess. LOL!

Sorry I didn’t see this post earlier, I stopped at chapter 12 last time but I’ve been recruiting the DLC characters too (which I recommend doing before you get too far for story reasons)

I’ve gotten into some more Splatoon 3 the last few days

July 25th 2023, 6:03 pm

The Pikmin Quadrilogy, I beat Pikmin 2 and 4 and I’m going for 100% in 4

July 27th 2023, 9:08 pm

Splatoon 3, Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, and Mario Party Superstars.

Star Ocean 2nd R, I’m already nearly 20 hours in, it’s so good!

Would you recommend playing any other instalments first? Are there any significant spoilers in earlier entries?

You can just start with the 2nd, and I highly recommend that because of all the QoL improvements

Nice, I’ll keep that in mind. Thanks. Happy

I’ve been having a hard time focusing on games lately, I really want to but I just can’t figure out what I wanna play

February 7th 2024, 8:45 pm

@KokorOtaku Same. The closest I get is a strong yearning to make a game of my own for others to play, and I have new ideas all the time (albeit with no practical means to get far past the planning stage), but my buzz for playing games for fun is pretty much gone at this point. Bored/What the...?

February 18th 2024, 9:20 pm

Found a groove of going back and forth between Neo The World Ends With You and Mario VS Donkey Kong, and will probably add Pac Man World RePac, Tunic, and RPG Time

https://www.wattpad.com/user/OrionJZed · February 18th 2024, 10:58 pm

@KokorOtaku I’m in a similar loop between Pokémon Violet, Digimon World: Next Order, and Persona 4 Golden.

February 20th 2024, 8:31 pm

@MyNameIsZed oh nice! Are you liking P4G?

February 20th 2024, 10:55 pm

@KokorOtaku The start is a bit more dialogue heavy than expected, but what I’ve played so far is pretty good.

The characters are so full of personality (excuse the pun). Yosuke is my favourite of the two protagonist friends, and while I’m not yet sure what to make of Chie, I’m sure she’ll grow on me in time as well.

February 25th 2024, 3:18 am

Wow, P4G is getting good… Pog Champ

March 8th 2024, 6:42 pm

I’m currently playing Neo The World Ends with You, and I’m confident I’ll end up 100% it

https://www.wattpad.com/user/OrionJZed · March 9th 2024, 5:02 am

@KokorOtaku Woo! Go for it!

March 12th 2024, 8:22 pm

I just beat Runner 2, I can’t believe I skipped out on this on series up until a couple years ago

March 16th 2024, 6:33 pm

Dr. Mario (the Game Boy version), Mario Golf (The Game Boy Color version), and Mario Tennis (the Game Boy Color version) are officially playable on Nintendo Switch Online, so naturally this means I’ve been playing both Persona 4 Golden and Pokémon Violet… oh, and a bunch of game demos, just to see if I like ‘em.

March 22nd 2024, 10:04 pm

Whelp, I’m just about finished with both Violet and P4G, albeit for very different reasons (nearly completed all three ‘dexes in the former; total immersion breakdown and unwillingness to finish the story in the latter), so it’s almost time for another game rotation.

I’m thinking a Scarlet playthrough is next on the agenda, along with one or two other “retail-sized” Switch games… I should also pick up where I left off in Pokémon TCG and the Oracle games… ooh, and my SMM2 Worlds!

Argh, I can’t decide! Anime Sweat

It turns out my concern with the rest of P4G was kinda misplaced.

It seemed as though the story was building to the point where the player has to choose a romantic partner to date, but after finding out that the only choices are female (apparently there was a male option intended, but it was scrapped for the final version of the game), not to mention the overly uncomfortable comments from Morooka, I felt a little disheartened.

Fortunately, it turns out it’s possible to turn down all the girls’ advances, meaning I can still go through the game without being pressured to play my character as straight, though it still kinda bites that my in-game avatar has to be closeted rather than openly gay… Bored/What the...?

Yeah that is unfortunate, sadly 2008 wasn’t yet ready for acceptance of LGBTQ people, hopefully a P6 will rectify that

April 11th 2024, 9:57 pm

@KokorOtaku Hope so, with multiple gender choices in addition to the traditional male. Anime Sweat

April 13th 2024, 2:46 pm

I’m kinda just finding random things to play until TTYD comes out, started Snack World and Laytons Mystery Journey and went back to get skins in Switch Sports

April 14th 2024, 12:26 am

@KokorOtaku Same. I’ve already preordered TTYD, but I may end up cancelling it and using my spare Game Voucher if I can’t decide on which game to redeem with it. Anime Sweat

Speaking of, any recommendations?

April 14th 2024, 12:32 am

Been playing an equal mix of PS4 games such as Call of the Wild: The Angler, DBZ: Kakarot, and Relayer alongside PSOne, PSP, and PS2 Classics, and some Switch games such as The Legend of Zelda: Kingdom Sad, Bug Fables: The Everlasting Sapling, and Twewy NEO. On Wii U I've been replaying Xenoblade Chronicles X and trying to do the last little bit of DLC content I have left in Zelda: BoTW! Wink

Been playing Legends Arceus almost exclusively for the past week or so. I’d forgotten just how good it is… all those hours invested in my new save… oh, and I named my character Alarc, after the protagonist in my light novel series Kindrazl: The Highborn Chronicles, because it sounds like a pun on “Arceus”

(My original save had a similar pun name, “Aric,” continuing the theme in my other Gen 8 games of “names starting with ‘Ar’: my Sword character was named Arthur, after Arthur Pendragon; and my character in Brilliant Diamond was Arwyn, a pun on “Arwing,” with my Pokémon named after Star Fox series places and characters).
