I like videogames more than I like most people
79- Mega Man 5

Probably the least interesting to me of the classic MM games so far. A lot of the bosses felt awkward for me. Beat is a great addition to the series.

It feels very similar to what came directly before-- makes sense given how fast these came out back then!

78- Mega Man 4

Truly wild it took them 4 games to introduce the iconic charge shot on the mega buster. Overall a solid game! I really love the opening cinematic and how they went for a bit of a twisty story in this one. Not my favorite classic MM, but I enjoyed it!

77- Mega Man: The Wily Wars

A really fantastic compilation that even acts as its own unique entry in the series. I honestly wish more remakes took the approach this game did-- it made the original trilogy feel much more cohesive!

It's so cool this game became more accessible in recent years!

I am endlessly fascinated by FE64 and the little snippets we know (especially as someone who adores both Tellius and Elibe)

Honestly, a dream game of mine is just "Fire Emblem, but if it looks like it came out for N64" 😂

What's the game? Looks fun

76- Hyrule Warriors: Age of Imprisonment

Not exactly what I wanted it to be, but I respect the approach this game took to letting us pull the curtain back a bit on Zelda's time in the past

Calamo and the Knight Construct are excellent. Cadlan is my fav

TELL US ABOUT THE FIRST CALAMITY YOU COWARDS

I think so. You won't get very far in an average plane ride but it will probably be enough time to get you into the atmosphere and story.

Special Post-- I HAVE COMPLETED THE NATIONAL POKÉDEX!!!

All 1025 mons caught thanks to help from my closest friends in life.

I'm that much closer to becoming a true Pokémon master-- something childhood me could only dream of!!!

75- Pokémon Legends: Z-A

It's surreal to play a modern Pokémon game with respectable performance 😂

I really enjoyed the gameplay loop of the main story, and it was super fun to raise a team and explore Lumiose.

The postgame has some huge issues imo, but I still had fun completing the dex!

One of my favorite games of last year. Happy to see it on another platform!

74- Hades II

Just a total banger of a game!!! Improved from the first in every way. That said, it really stands out as a nice complement to its predecessor-- rather than a small-scale, interpersonal drama, you get to jump into an epic, large scale war of gods and titans. It's excellent all around!

73- Silent Hill f

This is honestly not the kind of game I would usually play, but I made an exception for it since it's written by R07.

It's very good! I can definitely tell where the R07 vibes come from, even beyond just the superficial parallels to Higu.

Overall a solid game, just not my style!

Will bookmark your review for when I finish the game but I LOOOOVE it so far.

72- Kirby and the Forgotten Land - Star Crossed World

It's always a delight when Hal puts out anything Kirby-- they are so consistent! This extra mini campaign is a great excuse to enjoy the NSW2 improvements, and I really enjoyed how many dope new tunes were made for this.

Now make a new game!!

71- New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe

Took me many, many years, but I finally finished both NSMBU and Super Luigi U!

Honestly, it's a shame the series got oversaturated and this was harshly overlooked, it might be my favorite of the NSMB games. Luigi U also has a ton of great challenges!

70- Hollow Knight: Silksong

After the agonizing wait of... *Checks notes* 4 days, I finally got to play Silksong 😂

Took 42 hrs for all endings as well as a ton of great optional bosses and platforming challenges.

An absolute beast of a game that I feel *extremely* satisfied to have overcome.

Totally agreed. Engage also sort of had a way to account for what utilities you had bc they knew what major emblems you'd have access to, so there were often a lot of intriguing setups

Ahhhh I want Fortune's Weave so bad 😂

I might be in a minority here, but I sort of hope we don't have so much malleability in class builds this time. I just feel map design is more interesting without the ability to freely swap classes, since the devs know exactly what utility each of your units will have.

Good to know. I am currently more likely to play things on Switch 2, but if it's really bad I'd probably do steam deck. Shame to hear they're in bad shape

And hell yeah, very excited for Age of Imprisonment and DQ VII. And hades 2 is massively exciting, just gotta finish Silksong first hahaha

I'm leaning on distant past right now, like long before Nemesis and that battle, even.

Either way I'm quite pleased to see loose connective lore make its way back to FE. I always loved how there were certain things that tied the first five games together while still allowing them to feel distinct

I need to try this series at some point now that I've finished Hundred Line. I'm told by some that I'd really jive with it

(My direct highlight was Fire Emblem, of course)
