Tales of Xillia has finally been completed. I'm... kind of annoyed honestly. Not at the game mind you... it's just the fact that after being unable to play it for over 10 days... when I managed to finally have time to play it again... I was literally at the end of it. So... yeah... forgive me for being annoyed lol. 😒
This is probably the best Tales of I've played from the PS3 era. Honestly... it's not even close either. Graces is good and all... don't get me wrong. But Xillia just had everything. There were moments when it felt like the story was plateauing... but when that happened... something would happen that would make me interested in it again. In other words... it was like an up and down roller coaster ride. But I don't mind that kind of story. It keeps you invested and interested. The gameplay was great too honestly. Just as good as Graces. It even had more stuff in it that I liked that Graces didn't have. So yeah... overall great experience. Nothing else for me to say really. I can't praise it more. Just more fuel for me to wish for a time machine so I can go back and beat myself up for not playing all of these games sooner lol. Jude is probably my second favorite Tales of MC and Tales of character in general. Whose my favorite? You should already know the answer to that from my personal GOTY list last year... 😛
It was just great honestly. Teepo is probably the best Tales of mascot since Mieu. Can't wait to see more of him... 😉
Here's my updated Tales of list if that's a thing you care about
Abyss
Berseria
Xillia
Graces f
Symphonia
Zestiria
Symphonia 2
Vesperia
I'm playing two 'buffer' games right now before my next one. Two demos from the Nintendo Direct that were announced and released. Kirby's Return to DreamLand Deluxe, which I've already completed, and Octopath II which I might be close to reaching the hour limit on. It's hard to really know for sure.
What's my next game you ask? Shouldn't it be obvious? It's a repeat of the Symphonia situation!! Sequel time!! Tales of Xillia 2. I hope this isn't a repeat though where everyone hated the sequel. Though I personally loved Symphonia 2 but clearly that's literally only me. I guess we'll find out soon enough... 😅

I play fire emblem engage, really nice universe, with colorful characters that we get attached to. Well-constructed maps, an interesting choice of difficulties.
I haven't heard much about it but Three house was my first FE game and I loved it. Excited to play engage, planning on it this week!
I'm playing through several games on the Switch right now whenever I have some free time, including a number of games I have bought recently.
I've started getting into the Fire Emblem series and have been playing through Three Houses, currently have over 11 hours in the game. Definitely made me interested in playing other Fire Emblem games in the future, wish I'd gotten into the series earlier.
Another game I've taken a liking to is Coromon, which is a 2D Sprite-based Monster Taming game that takes a fair bit of inspiration from Pokémon. Has a customisable sprite character as well as difficulty options, with the hardest one essentially being a Nuzlocke. Definitely a game I would recommend to fans of sprite-based Pokémon games.
Need to start clearing my rather long backlog before I think about buying any more games now, though.

Alternating between Like a Dragon Ishin, Pokemon Scarlet and Pokemon Violet.
In Ishin, I've just completed the first chapter. Feels refreshing to be playing Yakuza's old brawler combat again. In Scarlet I've been prepping for the Walking Wake raid after beating the main story. And in Violet I've just beaten Tulip and Atticus - it's off to Ryme next.

I just played through the last part of the main story in Arcaea (rhythm game). There was a multi-step process to unlocking the final song and the climax of the story, and I just had one last step to do. Obviously I won't spoil what happens in the story (unlike the people in the discord server who spoiled it without any warning), but I still was surprised by what happened even though I (regrettably) already knew.

Mostly Pokemon Y and Geometry Dash, but I also always check in on the Nintendo Badge Arcade. I've also been enjoying Pokemon Hellgirl

I've been flipping between Trails of Cold Steel IV and Hyperdimension Neptunia Re:Birth 3, but I'm trying to get Cold Steel IV done before the next game releases in July.
...and then there's the rest of the backlog. Blue Reflection: Second Light still weeps in the corner where I stopped playing after Chapter 1 for no good reason and haven't gotten back to it.

How did you find the Cold Steel saga? Will you play Reverie next? What's Blue Reflection?
My playlists for Video game battle music and Non-battle Video game music. Oh and here's one for some remixes!

Kingdom Hearts 2 on my PS2, well the Japanese version. Also Tales of Destiny Directors Cut.
Also got Persona 3 Portable on PC so i can play it fully in Japanese without spending any more money on import.

What's Blue Reflection?
If I remember correctly, which I'm probably not, I believe I got Cold Steel 1 and 2 on Steam during a sale. I played through Cold Steel 1, had a fantastic experience getting blown away by C in Chapter 6 because of his S-Craft on my first try, and because I wanted to know what happened next, I started Cold Steel 2. However, after getting stuck on getting the AP bonus from Xeno and Leo, I ended up going back and playing Sky FC, which I'll admit I wasn't totally into until that cutscene happened at the end of the game, and from there, the series sank it's hooks into me. The rest is history, I played the Crossbell games thanks to the Geofront patches (may Scott rest in peace), and then started on the second half of Cold Steel. Yes, I will be playing Reverie when it releases after I finish Cold Steel IV.What's Blue Reflection?
As for Blue Reflection, how do I explain this. The most I can say is "it's an RPG made by Gust," and the first game is sort of hit and miss. Good luck getting a PS4 copy these days, though. Apparently, there was an anime, and now there's Second Light, which apparently fixes a lot of the problems from the first game. I'm only past Chapter 1 and I'm one of those people who have no real problems with the first game, so I'm not sure what exactly they fixed between games.

Playing Fallout 4 right now. Just reached Diamond City, but I haven't met this Brotherhood of Steel faction I've heard about yet so that's next on the to do list. Also need to help a settlement for Preston, so many things to do in this game lmao
It's very fun nonetheless, only need to get rid of my radiation damage because half my health is currently permanently gone lmao

Gave a try to Monster Crown, since it looked like interesting Pokémon-clone. But it didn't leave a good first impression and I put it down only after 30 minutes and I'm not sure if I want to return to it right now. It's way too grindy right from the bat and I don't feel like wasting several minutes beating slowly beating one of three random monster to grind up to the level the game let's me continue.
I got Red Dead Redemption 2 yesterday, so I play it. Pretty interesting game.
