Resident Evil 7: Ethan Must Die

The final challenge and I liked it a lot more than I thought I would. A solid kind of roguelike thing with how you get your items and weapons and traps that you need to figure out where they are and how to deal with them. It was fun.

Resident Evil 7: End of Zoe

It was pretty ok. I think a good amount of my enjoyment came from the novelty of forgoing all weapons in favour of just throwing hands though.
Walking through gator waters was the scariest part of the whole game just like the crocodiles were in 5

Resident Evil 7: Not A Hero

Narratively it's an ok little epilogue after Lucas just disappears from the main game after his part but it's a not very good first person shooter. I did get a good laugh at Chris having to Mission Impossible his way through a web of lasers though.

Resident Evil 7: DLCs

- Nightmare was a fun little survival mode thing
- Bedroom was a pretty fun little puzzle section
- 21 drags on for way too long and isn't very fun
- Daughters is like, 10 minutes long, has 2 endings and both are boring
- Jack's 55th birthday was pretty fun

Resident Evil 7: Biohazard

I didn't like it. I think it nails the tone and atmosphere early, the dinner scene is fantastic and I think it nails the 'hunted becoming the hunter' thing it's going for but I just didn't enjoy playing it and by the end it's just a bad FPS with a nothing final boss fight

Devil May Cry 3 (Vergil)

DMC 3 is fantastic and playing it as Vergil is different. I'm definitely not good as him but it's really fun. Honestly I think I prefer Vergil's base moveset with Beowulf to the moves Dante gets.

Devil May Cry 3

It's still great. A couple of the bosses and regular enemies are kind of annoying but it's still one of the best in genre. The soundtrack is great, it plays super well and you get some really cool weapons to work with (even if I never got the hang of Nevan)

A mix of my hopes and expectations for Danganronpa 2x2 along with some guesses as to who the killers, victims and survivors are in the new path (even though I'm one victim short since there's usually 2 in chapter 3)

Platinum for DMC 3 done, here's my final results. A lot more B grades than I'd like

Region - saved
Pokedex - complete
4/6 of my Pokemon - Eepy
Volo's look - stolen (and now red)

My closing statement on Legends Arceus is that it's not the best game where Arceus is a story component but there's no shame in being second place to the best Pokemon spinoff of all time

Pokemon: Legends Arceus

I want to like it a lot more than I do. I think the game conceptually is really interesting but I found it getting tedious quite quickly. Battles aren't the main focus but aren't great

I think I'd like it more if I'd never played a Sinnoh game before

I was looking at the achievement list for the House of the Dead 2 remake. Campaign is spelled wrong on multiple achievements and it's definitely interesting choice to have the pictures for the endings and bosses be screenshots from the original game

So far I only have one real issue with playing against Springtrap and that's that the default controller bindings have exiting the cameras and going through the security doors on the same button so if he's close by chances are he just gets a grab for free.
I do like the jumpscare though

The Maze of the Kings

I liked it. I like the setting and the options for which ammo type and equipment it's quite unique even if the supposedly randomised routes aren't quite as random as they'd like you to believe. Not the best rail shooter ever but still a fun enough time

Kotobuki Grand Prix

The worst kart racer I have ever played. It looks bad, doesn't play very well and there's 6 tracks in the entire game. Every character has a story which is nice but none of them are interesting.
It's not fun and just violently boring

Since Chaos Shuffle is back on I decided to play some games with killers I don't play very often. The Unknown game went pretty well

Yu-Gi-Oh: Capsule Monster Coliseum

Played through it again and it's still pretty solid. Still a bit strange with where it would fit in but the game is a fun time

Yakuza 5

It was fantastic, not sure if I like this or 4 more. I really liked the story and gameplay of all 5 characters across all 5 cities with a lot of gameplay variety across all the minigames and side stories. Another winner of a game from RGG Studio

Tokyo Ghoul (Season 1)

Did I watch it just because Kaneki got put in DBD and I wanted to know what his deal was? Yes.
Did I really enjoy watching it? Also yes. I liked all the characters, even Mado and Yamori are good in just how detestable they are. I should read the manga

Devil May Cry (Netflix)

It's not great. The action scenes are good and the voice actors do a great job unfortunately a good amount of the actual script is pretty bad. I did really like the white rabbit though.
I'd need more characters to explain my full thoughts

Lady's characterisation in the the new DMC anime is basically like if you fused these two together and then made her a cop

I got the first couple of survivors but had to let the other two go when those were their names
