My favourite Castlevania! Just about. Most people sleep on the GBA Igavanias but these took what Symphony of the Night started and improved it a thousand fold.
Yes!! Aria is one of my favourite vanias! Both Sorrow games are, really.
As for me, I'm 19 now so subtract 5 years from 2021 and it's 2016! This will strictly be games I've played so I can talk about them
in a massive amount of detail
Pokemon Sun and Moon: I don't have to explain this one, I was really hyped for Sun and Moon and it was one of those games where I had a blast when it came out. Everyone around me was playing it, I was playing it, and I remember spending every single second of free time I had playing Moon.
Stardew Valley: This was a game I was kinda interested in when I found out about it but nothing more. I didn't play it until I turned 17 and my boyfriend bought me it for Christmas. It's since become my favourite game to play together with him and he proposed to me in-game on my birthday where I cried for half an hour. Really great memories.
Kirby: Planet Robobot: My favourite Kirby game! I didn't pay much attention to it before it released but it was kinda that first instance of "oh my god, I have a job and I can buy whatever video games I want" and Planet Robobot was on the shelves one day when I just skipped school and wanted to pick up something new. I loved Triple Deluxe and I've got great memories of playing Robobot on the bus home and those two games were what really got me back into Kirby.
VA-11 Hall-A: I ignored this game for years cause I didn't know what it was about and didn't seem interested, but it's pretty much just a visual novel. A great visual novel with a really fun cast and neat side characters, and just the aesthetic and setting of it is so cool. I'm not too into cyberpunk but if anything got me into it, it'd be VA-11 Hall-A. Can't wait for its sequel.
