    Touhou 15: Legend of Lunatic Kingdom is doubtlessly the hardest Touhou game I've ever played. Even with Pointdevice Mode. The spells are absolutely brutal. But it's a good kind of difficulty. The one where I don't get bored retrying again and again (and hey, not from the beginning this time!) until I finally manage to do it. The boss fights are memorable as smurf and the music is as great as always.

    So after a few chapters of human conflicts and dealing with people's flaws and exposing the supernatural as unreliable narration, the supposedly last chapter is straight-up fantastical and a bittersweet love story with a tragic end and nothing else to it. But before I can complain the game gives me choices and I can have the main character point out how unnatural that last chapter was and how everything felt completely artificial. Cue reveal that that last story I'd just read was a complete fabrication and start the *real* story which is the same kind of human conflict story as the previous ones.

    Visual novels are awesome sometimes.

    Dragon Quest VII is a great game. I really do love it. I've only played III, V, VIII, and IX and of those I've only beaten V and IX. My problem with VIII was that the story just ground to a halt. I remember it being built up, things were getting exciting. The big bad had been revealed, we got a flying mount, and then nothing happened. I bring this up because so far the pacing of VII is terrific. I mean it's a long game, I'm 25 hours in and I'm guessing that means I'm roughly a quarter through. But it doesn't seem to drag on or rush through segments. Like Fynn said in the topic, it's very episodic. This game has a lot of world building, both literally and figuratively. And so far I've like everywhere I've been. Except Greenthumbs, those people suck. And I think it's a very unique take on the hero shows up in a new place and saves the day trope.

    The combat is pretty fun too. Although I have found that my enjoyment of the fights is directly proportional to Maribel's MP. I have been thinking about taking her and Ruff through Sailor so they'll learn Lightning and have a free hit everything ability. The Hero already know it, made him a Sailor first like his dad.

    Been playing Super Mario RPG as I've awaited World of Final Fantasy this week, and this was some of the best visual comedy in a video game.

    Planet Coaster is the most fun I've had with a theme park sim since Theme Park World. It's a fitting spiritual successor to Roller Coaster Tycoon 3.

    I'm currently making a very bad attempt at bulding my own Disneyland in it. This doesn't look like much, but it represents the past 3 hours of my life xD

    FFVII - I still think Chocobo Breeding might be one of my top five minigames in the series.

    Curtain Call - Still horribly addictive. I also love some of the character choices.

    I am Setsuna - Really loving the vibe of this game.

    Uncharted 4 was everything I was hoping for out of an end to the series. Almost perfect. 9.5/10

    The Witcher is pretty cool so far, with lots of cool nods to the books. I'm going in fresh after reading the novels, so this kind of satiates my need for more Witcher stuff.

    Magic (the Gathering) 2015 for mobile works really well. Online games are easy to jump into and I've learned a lot about how the phases of every turn actually work.

    Overwatch is a ton of fun. I love all the characters I've played so far. Mei and Pharah are my favorites.

    Dungeon Travelers 2 - OUTFITS

    SOMA - Really makes you think, good environment, scary but not TOO scary for me

    Trails of Cold Steel II - OUTFITS. Also super fun, good characters, good character development

    Oblivious Garden - Has a lot of potential, very pretty

    Digimon Story Cyber Sleuth - Digimans are cute

    Rogue Legacy - Hilarious, a ton of fun, some neat quirks
