Tactics Ogre: Let Us Cling Together - I take back what I said about Terror Knights being nerfed. Holy hell are they nasty once they are up to par with the rest of your team level and gear. It helps that I switched two of my characters classes turning my Knight into a Terror Knight and my former Terror Knight into a Knight, the male TK is cooler looking as is the female Knight so bonus points there. They have low speed and have to use two-handed weapons which often have poor accuracy but then you gain their special skill that makes their accuracy 100% and makes melee inflict Frighten (lowers all stats) and you've got a mean death machine.
I also ran into a random Female Knight I had to recruit because I noticed her name was Celes. :ffvising:

currently playing dragon quest 7.
I mean, i like dragon quest games, so pretty much anything that makes any dragon quest game good applies here. But for 7, I suppose I like the island stories. Rather than having one big overarching story, it's basically the "doomsday event of the week" which is interesting.

I'm playing Warframe. I don't like games at the moment though, so I don't think it counts. I'm just passing time with Warframe.

Suikoden V ~ God, what is not to love? The battle system is fun with SII's core gameplay with the best elements of SIII and IV added in. Love area bosses, which are always a treat. I'm also just collecting so many good characters. Not to mention I got the Beavers on my side, so Naval War battles are hilariously easy. I've been doing a better job of utilizing characters I don't normally use, instead of just using all the game breakers, and it's been a real treat playing with different party configurations.
Pokemon GO ~ Loved the Halloween visuals and I love me some ghost Pokemon. Also pageants are a fun diversion, and I'm not just saying that because my work is conveniently located next to a Poke Stop that specializes in them. :shifty:
Romancing SaGa Re: Universe ~ I am really impressed with the game's narrative. I'm not really big on direct sequels, nor do I love fanfic like plots of characters from different world's meeting up, but it really works here. Helps the game is using the narrative to fill in some of the more vague writing of the franchise like changing the context of Subier and the Narwhal's child from RS2, or finally delving into the lives of the Matriarch and Archfiend from RS3. I still love how that dimensional pull of the cast members work in this game, with characters able to encounter different versions of themselves from their own timeline, and even some alternate timelines. Creates some interesting drama.

As as a sports guy i am playing nba 2k19 for xbox one. It's fantastic as most are these days but it's just fun to play when not playing an rpg.

Playing back through Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Survivor 2.
The Devil Survivor games I think are some of the most underappreciated of the franchise, and frankly some of the best SRPG's out there.
-
Xenosaga Episode 1 - Honestly, I feel it is the most solid entry in the franchise. It may be a slow burn of a story, but for a good sci-fi plot, you need that. The battle system is still my favorite and feels like a nice evolution of Gears combat. Love the event slot mechanic. Love the mini-games once I finally gave them a chance. Best in the series despite the few nagging issues.
Tactics Ogre Reborn - Probably my favorite version. Gets rid of all the busy work from the PSP version while still finding a way to give the game a level of depth that feels in line with the original. Translation is great, VA work is serviceable, and it still has all the good elements from the PSP version.

Trials in the Sky: Second Chapter - Feels like a cup of warm soup. It's a very classic jrpg, that picks up right where the first one left off. That might not be for everyone, but I'm having a great time.

So I bought Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom and the Silent Hill 2 Remake. Both are fantastic....but then I bought Metaphor. The game grabbed me so hard that I put those on hold until I clear Metaphor. In in the endgame portion of it now, but holy hell is that game gold.

Dragon Age: The Veilguard. It is good.
-
The SH2 remake was great. Guess I'm not playing it now, cause I finished it, but it's the only thing I've had time to play. :cry:
-
So let me begin with a few; NBA 2k19, one of the best sports game of all time; smooth fluid and fun. Ghostbusters the Video game----basically the 3rd film in a video game format. Moments that will live forever. Nascar Heat 4, brilliant racing game that includes a fun soundtrack to go with it and also; WWE 2k, fun experiences all around

Life is Strange 2.
Just made it to Episode 3. Digging it a lot so far. Love the whole fugitive/cross country vibe and the wilderness setting is so dang pretty to look at! It's a different beast from the first game (which I absolutely adored, may I add) and it's companion game, "Before the Storm", but it still has that core heart and subsequent heartbreak ( :cry: ) that's become so known in the Life is Strange series. I don't think my heart is ready for what's going to happen in the later game... :ohdear:

Finally trying to get round to finishing Tales of Symphonia- I love the cast in this not a single member I dislike so far. Zelos maybe the weakest.
