Decided to play Visions of Mana, since its premise is promising. And a friend told me she really loved it.

I didn't expect it to look so...cheap. I know it's a budget game (albeit one sold at full price, because of course it is), but it feels more like it was made by Idea Fuck than the once-monarch of JRPGs. Not to mention that I'm playing on PC, so I need to deal with the beauty of an inconsistent framerate and a loud fan. Why is this game requiring 16GB of RAM? I know Square has always had a complex from not being a western dev, but copying the western trend of not optimizing the game in any way is not endearing. It should be 8, and no more.

Curious. If so, that's a shame. The PS5 version looks and performs rather nicely...

The game itself does look very lovely, most of the time. It's just that the non-FMV cutscenes look terrible, and those were what bothered me the most because this is a story-focused game.

Been making my way through Daxter for the PSP. Kinda over it, very samey-samey, but fine for PSP platforming.

 

[bigstinkie]

making my way downtown in metaphor refantastico
i finished replaying proving grounds of the mad overlord for the 48th time so i figured it was time to play something new to me
insanely staggeringly lovely 2d artwork

 

[rattabletapping]

Went back and played Tales of destiny again (it's been a long time since I played it) and I was giddy when I saw Mary.
I also played a little bit of Mario kart double dash too

pokemon tcg pocket lol
i havent been playing many actual games recently

 

[The Missing Link]

Armored Core and Armored Core Project Phantasma. Just replying arena matches with different ACs

 

[snes9x]

Played some Robocop: Rogue City but it kept crashing so I played more of the PS1 remake of Tales of Phantasia, but the area I'm at rn is a slog. Dunno if I'll bother seeing it to the end but as a JRPG fan I'd like to say I at least beat one Tales game, as mid as I find them.

And, as always, more Puyo Puyo 2.

Have you tried Tales of the Abyss yet? not the biggest Tales fan myself but that one is great! :3

 

[snes9x]

I've not! Maybe I'll put that on the list. Is the 3DS port any good?

Märchen Maze by Namco on PC Engine. Top-down style run'n gun game similar to Kiki Kaikai (Pocky & Rocky) with some learning curve navigating enemy attacks by jumping to maneuver them. So far I really enjoy the (Alice In Wonderland theme) presentation, graphics, large boss sprites, and music.

Pc engine had the best design of cartridges

On an Xbox console? Harold Halibut before it leaves Game Pass. While the game is aesthetically beautiful, I thought it'd be more of an adventure game, however it's just a walking sim where you're constantly going back and forth just talking to people. It's sad that such good artwork was wasted on such a dull game. It feels like a Wes Anderson film in video game form.

Also started South of Midnight. This is another game that looks beautiful, however it's just not very good in terms of gameplay. Every enemy encounter is so predictable and takes place in little combat arenas. We Happy Few was vastly more interesting.

Game pass is crazy right now... oblivion chair noir south of midnight indiana doom :) but I so have so many time to play

I installed Windows XP on an old core2 quad that was laying around the place and now I'm playing Warcraft 3 and Need for Speed Porsche on it. I'm impressed how light that system is, it can run 1080p YouTube videos at 2x speed with just 1gb of DDR2 ram and the integrated graphics

There's not but I remember that a fan was translating but I don't know if the person gave up.

Been feeling a bit down in the dumps the past days, so I've been playing WoW, I guess it's my comfort game.
I've been playing on my Warlock a bunch and I really like it right now. Finally finished the quest chain to get my Class Mount, and made a really cool transmog I'm happy with.

Now to finish the last 6 levels so that I can try the new raid and zone.
