  • It’s very much a flawed gem. It’s definitely a little clunky (and the graphics have definitely aged) but it has some unique systems. The pawn system is cool (you create your main character plus a ‘pawn’ character that follows you, and you can summon other players pawns to fill out your team, which gives those players some rewards).

    The magic system makes you feel like a badass (a lot of slow-charging but really powerful spells) and the melee combat is pretty fun as well (you can climb large enemies to attack them, Shadow of the Colossus style).

    It is pretty long but I also found the gameplay to be the main appeal for me, so I personally wouldn’t feel pressured to finish the game. It goes on pretty deep discounts fairly regularly so you could pick it up without much of a commitment (it looks like it’s $4.80 USD on steam now). It can be pretty challenging though (especially early on) so keep that in mind if you’re not a fan of difficult games.



  • Any of the Yakuza games for me! I love the feeling of walking around Kamurocho or Sotenbori and just trying different arcade games, karaoke, food, baseball etc 😊 the ambience and overall vibe is so nice (even if you do have to beat up random thugs every few minutes). Also, there are so many (very long) games in the series that there’s always something new for me to try
