Favorite characters in Genshin are definitely Xiangling, Hutao, Kokomi and Fischl yours?

That was pretty much exactly what I've heard from others who have been fans for a while. I could be an American fan and play them in the order we got them, OR I could spoil myself (privilege sense, not narrative) by getting to experience the series as Falcom intended. I think I'm definitely sticking to the latter.

I've played a bit of PQ and PQ2, so the models definitely feel a little off. They're chibi, but not the chibi I'm familiar with, y'know? I'm totally with you btw -- I hope the gameplay is solid enough that external factors like art and music can't be a hindrance.

AA3 will come eventually. I mentioned it briefly before, but I've got 7 more VNs I'm trying to tackle before the end of the year. And for 3 of those 7, I only plan on reading a single route. After that, then there aren't really any that I feel in a rush to read, y'know? Once these 7 are done, my reading list gets blown wide open and I can really go in whatever order I want. Looking forward to that.

After sitting on Sky3 for a while, my opinion hasn't really changed. The only gripe I can come up with is that the really important pieces of lore felt a little more spaced out than I'm used to. But even that isn't a real gripe since it means the excellent combat system gets its chance to shine for a little while longer.

Zero's coming up on me faster than I thought. In my goals list, I'm currently just now starting my September games. I'm testing the waters with the Utawarerumono series with Prelude to the Fallen before Monochrome Mobius (console) comes out. That's the last game before Zero, so either I hate Uta:PttF and drop it soon, or I have to finish a single 30ish hour JRPG before Zero.

Technically, I suppose I also have Chaos;Head Noah before Zero, but VNs/ADVs have been delegated to reading time before bed. No matter what happens though, the back half of this year is absolutely stacked.

I've heard that Crossbell's relation to Cold Steel 1+2 is kinda similar to Yakuza 0 and Kiwami, if you're familiar. With those games, you get some minor spoilers and lots of references for the other, so there's not really a "correct" order to play them in.

Yeah, exactly. In a good scenario, we get some fun maps with a chunky compendium of demons to pull from. If that happens, then the P5 coat of paint is just a secondary element imo. In the best case scenario, it sells gangbusters and we get more Megaten tactics in the future.

Yep, I just wrapped up AA2 recently. Once I get through the VNs/ADVs I've committed to reading this year, When they Cry and more Ace Attorney are high priority on my reading list.

At the time of this comment, I've also recently wrapped up Sky 3. What an incredible game. Taken at face value, I can see why it would be "just another JRPG", but as the end of the Sky arc...god DAMN. Absolutely my favorite of the trilogy.

Looking at my Goals list, it seems like Zero isn't too far off either, so I'm looking forward to starting that properly. Just like with my VN list, once I get some free time from my annual commitment games, Azure will be extremely high priority.

Well, thank you! I can definitely reciprocate as I've been loving what I've played so far.

I'm still relatively a newcomer when it comes to Trails and AA, but my plans for the year AT LEAST include some more Trails, so there's that. I'm trying to play the series in Japanese release order while matching new US releases with one each. So for Reverie, the next game is Sky 3rd, and for Nayuta it'll be Zero. Extremely looking forward to that one.

Atlus games are easily some of my core taste games though How do you feel about those new announcements recently? Even though I'm not a huge Persona fan, P5T has easily piqued my interest since it's been so long since the last megaten tactics game.

Thanks for the add! What brings you to my page?

I ended up settling on Landsknecht/Nightstalker, Fortress/Dancer, Dancer/Nightstalker, Sniper/Arcanist, and Medic/Arcanist. Simultaneously went with my gut on most of these while referencing a few recommended setups. I do plan on retiring everyone once they get to the cap anyway, so if there's any bad combos, I think I can brute force the maingame until then. Game's been forgiving enough to me so far, so let's hope that trend stays.

EO IV's been a lot of fun in general, definitely kicking myself for not playing this sooner, lol.

Thank you, I was happy to finally play it. I mostly liked it, found it very chill and low difficulty entry in the series. I liked the relaxed boating around and I loved the art style. Cartoon Link is very expressive and I love Tetra's colour palette and the visual designs on the bosses. I just lost my patience a bit at the end and decided to use a guide to save myself some time. Interesting and creative divergence / experiment for the zelda series.

Thanks! You as well, good to see you here again. Apologies for not having time to game lately, I miss playing with you guys! Hope all is well and will see you soon hopefully. I am moving at a snail's pace in TotK, haha...

Not the worst nickname for a Dewpider/Araquanid tbh.

And yeah, it's not just you. Imgur's been giving me issues for a week or two now whenever I try to screenshot stuff too.

Sure thing! Once I get into the good stuff.
