Beat Chapter 1 of Daybreak a while ago, really enjoying Feri so far, and we're starting to build up a dynamic in Arkride Solutions.

Finished Daybreak's prologue, defintely interested in the new tone of story direction, and Van himself.

Still gotta get used to the new turn order UI and art drivers determining which arts you get.

A lot of the characters were really great, but Clive as a protagonist just blew it out of the water for me. His changing motivations as well as relationships with other characters really made it worth it to play this game. He's up there as a goat protagonist for me.

After more than 3 months, I have finally beaten Final Fantasy XVI.

This game was a seriously fun experience, with a more darker tone thanks to its world and presentation. The combat was like Devil May Cry, so it really felt right at home.

Just been spending so much clearing out all of the remaining side quests and hunting board monsters. Now I'm ready to hit up Origin.

Made a bit more progress coming back with slaying the Behemoth and running into this Z-esque motherfucker.

Havent posted about FF16 in ages due to a family trip, but beaten Barnabas and got Odin's power. The boss was a pain and made me sweat, but it was worth it as unleashing Zantetsuken is raw as fuck.

Barnabas is Malos from Xenoblade 2 reincarnated, cant change my mind.

Joke's aside, looking to seeing more with him being the Dominant of Odin.

Yeah this is just basically Final Fantasy summons going full on Mecha/Attack on Titan, and I am 1000% for it.

This fight against Titan lost was crazy, and blew my mind on the scale of the fight and music.

Progress: Took down another mother crystal, and we took down Kupka (rip his hands).

Clive once again being awesome, both accepting himself as Ifrit's dominant, and inheriting Cid's will and desire to change the world.

Also, I'll be using the hashtag above, so please block it if you do not want spoilers for Final Fantasy XVI.

Brah.

Clive is a goat Final Fantasy protag. That growth.

Also, this whole Turing Test part feels like a Blade Runner reference, or is it just me?

More Cross Code progress is going smoothly as I'm heading towards the end game and now working on getting better gear.
December 12, 2024 at 10:18 PM
Beaten the grand temple in Cross Code, been exploring the Sapphire Ridge, and even got myself a high crit damage build.

A screenshot of all the games I completed this year, overall pretty happy I took the time to play my backlog. Found a few favorite games like Astral Chain, Granblue Relink, and Reverie.

Beat the Wave themed Dungeon in Cross Code, and we got to see more of Lea's emotional scenes.

Finished Chapter 7 of Cross Code, and I'm really feeling the potential to where this story will go with how they can create AIs with self awareness.

I also love Lea as a character, she's really expressive for a silent protagonist and I'm looking forward to seeing how her story will progress.

Been playing some Cross Code lately, and holy shit, was I not ready for the revelation behind Lea to happen so soon. It was also devasting to see her coping with the truth.
