games

My hot take is I think being an open world game is infinitely more satisfying for a 2D zelda than it was for a 3D zelda having now played Echoes

I'd love to play Unicorn Overlord if it came to an actual platform

well the bottom right one is a really good dungeon

I want to see an actual zelda game 2D zelda that is open world now, to see if that statement holds up

It is really fun climbing shit and exploring in 2D, way moreso than in 3D

Well, its psuedo 3D

I guess if I had to discuss my 2025 games I want to do, I want to play all of my christmas games I got this year, I want to finish Shantae (left off half way through), and I want to play Catherine since that is the only christmas game from last year I left untouched, and I want to finish the 5 or 6 games I started, made good progress in, but did not finish last year

I am on the last chapter of P5T and have just not played it in awhile

I am not sure what older game franchaise, if any, I want to deep dive after I finish Shantae

Since I am also notorious for missing a metric ton of classic games

That I know for a fact I'd like

persona 1

JRPG's are not my genre

if they were you could play all FF games

If they were I would finish Xenoblade 2

lmfao

you 100%'d all those neptunia games though

Yeah

That was not because they were JRPGs, but because I really liked Neptunia

fair

I like JRPG's typically though

I have also 100%'d all the non JRPG neptunia's I've played except the fire emblem one, which I need to finish

and the bullet hell one, which I am skill issued by

old games are way harder to recommend than other kinds of old media aside from absolute classics, there are very few that hold up enough mechanically to be worth playing

and forgoing modern QoL

I still technically need to finish pikmin 2!

But at this point, I think I would have to replay it, and I might to leave that series off with having 100%'d Pikmin 1

at some point I should play Pikmin 4

I know I'll like it

I kind of want to get the remaster of prime 1, then actually finish 2 and play 3 so I can do prime 4

oh yeah pikmin 4 was this year

add that to my list

or was it?

last year

I had the same exestential crisis with mario wonder

I swore I played that this year

but it was last year

there were a couple 2022 games on my list

that really psyched me out

I think my list was pretty split on new released and old games

FF16 was last year and I never got around to playing the DLC that released this year

I have some DLC I never got around to or did not finish

Like stardews

I include DLC as update I guess

lmao

Anyways I need to play the stardew update still and re-100% it

The games I've started but not finished are It Takes Two (with Polu), Holo X Break, Open RTC2 (Was going to 100% all of RCT2 for the first time, only ended up doing 1), Paper Mario: the Thousand Year Door (Remake), and Infinity Nikki

plus the stardew update

Pika, do what I did, and replay Stardew with the big content pack mod

SV:Enhanced

it's genuinely really fun

I just want to grind the new achivements

I am stardewed out Spooky

I 100%'d that game

I'm halfway through 2 point campus campaign mode which is just a massive time sink and then there's challenges on top of it

SV:E, Ridgeside, and East Scarp are all really good

Downtown Zuzu and Lunna are eh

I think 200 hours of this was my 100% run

which was last year

I will out of principle 100% haunted chocolatier, because I have been meming that game as my game of the decade for a while

I mean, the reason to play with mods are if you want new content, because a good as vanilla Stardew is, I think everyone has experienced that part of the game before

what new achievements did they even add Pika, just challenge run stuff?

A bunch of collection of books that have passive buffs that is a bit of a grind, a sidequest mission thing with racoons

Also, SV:E having 14.2M downloads is crazy

I had no idea it was that high

Some achivements that were missing from base game but kind of made sense to have existed like winning the fair

Its about 2-3 hours of work left, I just have not felt up to doing it

Polu is even more crazy than I am, he true 100%'d the game by getting every single piece of furniture, etc

despite that not being tracked for completion

I guess my games list will be porn stacked in a way that I will have to include in rance 03 does infact come out in may like we estimate it will

from your beloved bomberman history youtube series

this concept has only been used in a 1996 bomberman game and pokemon and no where else ever

Also in yugioh season 0

The greatest of shows

Now that I've played more of it, Dicey Dungeon is good, but I feel like the runs are very repetative

And there is not that much you can do in an individual run to change how the game plays

Newer versions of games are NOT always better. It's the devs business to say otherwise but I'm sure many feel the same way.

Is that in reference to Stardew, Bomberman, or Dicey Dungeons?

I think other than obvious updates that fuck stuff up, like Risk of Rain 2's, it's rare for a game to get get considerably worse
