I am also excited for the Switch version even though I already played it on PC with the orchestral mod. Will be nice playing it with the newly made Japanese audio, orchestral OST officially included, and the 16-bit graphics. Plus being able to play it on the go makes it even better.

Gotten further into Tales of Vesperia now. Still mixed opinions for me. Solid game, but I don't see how it stands out as one of the best Tales games. At least Rita is HQ. I was kinda looking forward to Patty joining the party. Unfortunately she's been very annoying so far. Also started dabbling in e...

Didn't get to play any Vesperia over the weekend since I was visiting my gf. I'm really enjoying it overall. I'm not quite sure what makes this game a Tales fan favorite so far, but it is quite good. Rita is my favorite character so far. I still got a little FFIX time in on the trip. Only about 3 ho...

I started buying physical again to save money after a long period of digital only. Besides sometimes getting better prices on physical there's also the sale or trade in value after I'm done since I'm not much of a collector anymore. Unless I plan on playing again soon I'll just flip it. I love the S...

What's up? How've you been? I rarely check the forums here anymore since I mostly got out of collecting/retro gaming, but I'm still around. Mostly playing JRPGs these days.

Finished Xenoblade Chronicles 1 earlier this week. I was pretty addicted and due to a lot of snow this past Monday also had an extra day off. Took a little over a week to complete. Last time I went that hard on an RPG was probably Persona 5. Would say it's one of the best RPGs I've ever played. Easi...

Just finished Kingdom Hearts 3 and Tales of Symphonia before that. Started Xenoblade Chronicles X last night. So far so good, but the character creation left a lot to be desired.

It's really really great, man. Well. I'm currently working on Trails of Cold Steel 2 so at the very least it wouldn't be til after that. Also trying to get back into/more into rhythm games. The Switch actually has a decent rhythm game selection. Hope it keeps on expanding. Groove Coaster just came ...

Been having a lot of fun with Splatoon 2 lately. On a long train ride from CT to NYC this past weekend the local multiplayer was very useful. 3 of us played for most of the train ride. Unsure about whether I want to try out Octopath Traveler or not. I've caught a bit of the game on a few streams. It...

translation seemed pretty okay to me, but I'm not fluent in Japanese. May have been odd a few times. Can't remember specific examples.
