Quick review on Pokemon Legends Z-A
Pros:
-Real time combat is fun! I honestly thought I wouldn't like it but it adds a ton of depth to battling I never would've thought about, including but not limited to: long range vs close range, hazard moves such as fire spin, hard hitting slow attacks

IT'S TIME FOR THE OCTOPATH TRAVELER 2 REVIEW (no I wasn't caught up with something I was just lazy and put it off)
This will obviously have heavy comparisons to OT1 since I played it so soon after but I'll have it in the same format (pros vs cons etc) but most of it will be positive (1/16)

Tier list of subs and specials I would want for a potential explo kit (except more modern since third kits are real) explanation for some of these in replies

Holy peak, will write about soon
I heard Octopath II was significantly better about a lot of these glaring issues, and I will be playing it soon, but I need like a week or 2 to take a break because this game has been my every waking moment for like the whole past week. (33/33)
(also here's a funny image I saw looking for strats)

Direct thoughts thread! This'll be shorter than what a normal thread from me looks like but let's get into it.

I feel like atlus have their priorities in the wrong place if this ends up being real. Don't get me wrong, I loved Reload, but I don't think P4 needs this compared to like, P1+2. I'm not worried about P6 because I'm pretty sure those are separate teams tho

probably the most thought I've put into a review, if you care at all i'd say it's a good read (this was like an hour out of my life)
Octopath Traveler (2018) is probably the most conflicted i've ever been on a videogame.
This game is nearly 7 years old, but this thread will contain spoilers if you care about playing this game.
Before we get into the review, I need to drop some important lore so you can have some context (1/33)

Replaying Octopath Traveler (the first one) and trying to actually beat it this time, the early game and late game feel like 2 completely different games lmao

Excited for the new chapters of deltarune this year. I replayed chapter 1 and 2 this week to catch myself up and I was like DAMN this game goes deeper than I thought. I'm so ready to see what Toby's been cooking

Replayed DDLC a few days ago and honestly this game is still insanely good. I really want to see another game made like it but idk if it could have the same impact

I HAVE FINISHED METAPHOR: REFANTAZIO. Only took like 100 hours but I did get it done, which means...
REVIEW TIME
I have a lot of things I think this game does really well, a few things I think it could do better, and a few thoughts on the future of ATLUS games. Let's jump in. (story spoiler free)

HM: Metaphor: ReFantazio
I have not finished this game yet (though I am close) and when I do finish it I will likely write a comprehensive review but I think the gameplay, writing, style, and world of this game are simply unmatched. If you are a fan of ATLUS games, you should give it a shot 10/10

Alright, been cooking this up for about a week, here is MrCactusMan's review of EVERY GAME HE PLAYED THIS YEAR (2024)!
The games on this list have to meet 2 requirements:
- I have to have started playing the game this year (obviously)
- I have to have played through a large part of the game (60%+)

The copium for Splatoon 3 third kits will never cease, and with a potential reveal this weekend I wanted to make a thread on predictions for what the kits could possibly be!
Note, while I do have my own wishes for third kits, this thread will be predictions about how NINTENDO will make the kits.

It's been a few days since Marvel Rivals came out and I've gathered my thoughts after playing a few characters in each role, I honestly think my biggest hot take is that this game shouldn't get any balance changes. At all. For like a whole month.

Metaphor Re:Fantazio is the first Atlus game I've played in like 3 years where I don't know how it's gonna go and it's got me on the edge of my seat. This game is so awesome

The game awards is a necessary thing in the gaming industry ever since we lost E3. Imagine gamers going a whole year without a 3 hour slot to watch trailers for games they don't care about and then complain after it's over
