Yes! Bravely Default 1 was one of my favourite games when it came out. Bravely Second was also quite good. I was very disappointed with Octopath Traveler I though.
Replying to bob #b0b3365 you should play fire emblem 4
Fire Emblem 4 is not good imo. Much preferred both 3 and 5
I don't have Encore
Replying to Spooky Phijkchu #spooky.131 I'm definitely a story > characters >>> aesthetic > gameplay >>> OST kind of person though (edited)
Gameplay >>> story >>> Everything else

Hey guys, its me, the guy who really cares about video game music
I agree more with Dialga than Spooky's ordering though
Gameplay being not near the top for games makes no sense unless you only play VNs
despite caring about the story the most, I play a shitload of simple puzzle games and such, and there are games that obviously have no in-built story like Dwarf Fortress that I think are excellent
and honestly, "story" is a bad term to use
it's everything that encompasses the narrative, characters, worldbuilding, writing, etc.
which I think is the bedrock of any form of media
that matters the most to me, and the presentation matters the most after that
I can forgive a game with okay story, art, etc if it has a banger ost and good gameplay
I cannot forgive the opposite as easily
Games should of course avoid having any category as bad, I think its more meaninful to discuss games that range from passable to great for each
Those margins are more interesting
Pika, I have my game list done btw
I gave up writing half way through
when I realized how many I had
Yeah you were always going to mog me
its moggings all the way down
I'm sure I'm missing some on this list
and a lot of the playtimes are just complete guesses
Dude 400 hours into a 1 star game is peak
order within each tier is close to play order, Balatro I just stuck on the end because I didn't really know where it belonged
thats hilarious
I have major issues with Dominions 6
I know, I've read you discussing it
lol
yeah
1* is mostly for stuff that makes me mad
Toushin Gent Demo (2024)
Lennod Jump Game (2023)
Deepest Sword (2021)
Stardew Valley (2016)
Lethal Company (2023)
Content Warning (2024)
Animal Well (2024)
Infinity Nikki (2024)
Marvel Rivals (2024)
There is our game overlap
since I did not include games I did not complete or were not completable in my list
I did do a run of jump game, because I was trying to beat it before lamp could be the final levels
got close

I will include Nikki in my Dec 25th to Dec 25th 2025 list when I beat the main story
yeah, I like how Pika did his list, both write-ups and his whole 100%ing things
My format was stealing Vinny's twitter format but making it better
I don't 100% most games, I think the only game this year that I did was Wukong and some of the smaller games
I also tried to not include demos, other than 1 that was essentially the full game
I 100% any game that the ratio of "I like this game" to "this will be really annoying to 100%" is skewed heavily enough towards I like this game
I would have 100%'d mario rpg had the post game not been complete ass
oh, F/SR, I'd say I 100%'d that too
Hell, I literally 100%'d the stupid fucking loli racing game Regi bought me
honestly, I don't think most of my games are 100%able
because I wanted zero justification to say I did not play my christmas gift, and it only took 35 minutes
and the ones that are, I just have no interest in 100%ing them
like Balatro
I 100%'d 13 games last year
mogged my 2 Pika
almost 14 if I dropped 40 more hours in Balatro
I really am right at the end of finishing that game
Also would have been +1 if I spent an hour and grinded out the boss of the shantae game hitless
since that is all I have to do for that
I also bought a lot of games in 2024, that I've not gotten around to playing yet
