Biggie Posted February 25 Share Posted February 25 I’m on chapter 18 in Fire Emblem Engage and it’s so damn good. Playing in handheld mode using my AirPods sounds amazing. I’m 42 hours in and there is 26 chapters. I can tell the story is starting to wrap up. Crazy good game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if I had to choose I would pick Engage. The characters are much more entertaining. The battle system/combat/gameplay are better in my opinion. The graphics and world map are better. I am enjoying the story better as well. I wasn’t really a fan of the monastery school hub. You might feel different since you are a teacher. This is just my opinion and like I said Three Houses is a really good game also. I just prefer Engage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dualhunter Posted February 25 Share Posted February 25 Now that I have 100% of the items in We Love Katamari REROLL + Royal Reverie, I experimented a bit with collecting roses. Based on how many I rolled up holding the sticks to go in circles for 10 minutes it would still take around 80 hours using the rubber band trick. I saw somebody claim to get around 65,000 per hour in 2 of the rose levels which seems a lot faster than what I was doing but even if I could match it, I'd still be looking at almost 14 hours of doing the same level over and over to get the remaining just under 900,000 roses so I'm done with just 10% of the 1,000,000. I hope whoever came up with that level realizes how stupid they are. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I quite liked it. I enjoyed the vibe and the game doesn't overstay its welcome. I can go for another sub-10hr chill mystery game. This Bed We Made looks really good, but apparently it’s really short like only a few hours so I’m going to wait and get it when it’s on sale for $15 or less.

Yeah, I beat it in like 8 or 9 hours. Also, depending on how you play it, getting all the endings can be as easy as rewinding back to a save only 15 minutes before the end of the game.

That’s a lot longer than 3-4 hours like some reviews and people on Steam stated that it was. 8-9 hours is a good length for the type of game that is, so if it’s that long I will buy it sooner rather than later.

dualhunter Posted February 26 Share Posted February 26 Started and finished Franzen. It's a free JRPG on Steam. Took me a bit over 8 hours though it can be finished in half that. It doesn't have official controller support, didn't work with an Xbox controller but the Switch Pro controller work. The + button was both menu and cancel which was a bit weird, both B and A were confirm. You can either remap the controls in Steam or just get used to them like I did. I had to get up when starting the game to hit F4 to expand it to fullscreen but I enjoyed the game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure if you just rush through the game without actually reading through letters or skipping your maid duties, you can finish it that fast. I mean, you don't HAVE to read all the text the game throws at you. You can just prod the lead character for hints on where to look next. What's the point of even playing a story-heavy mystery noir game where 70% of the plot is told through the letters and the luggage you snoop through? Steam says I have 9.5 hours in the game. I'm sure like half an hour of that is the pause screen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crispy4000 Posted February 26 Share Posted February 26 Tried some Teslagrad 2. It's quite fun so far, I'm happy that it's a breezy Metroidvania-lite like the first game. But uh, this guy... Sure is cool looking, but fuck everything else about this fight. I read a review that compared it to the difficulty spike in Wo Long. Out of nowhere.

This is why I can’t always trust what some reviews and people say about game lengths, because I usually find games to be longer than a lot of critics and other gamers do because I take my time playing them thoroughly. Thanks for the impressions of this game, I’m definitely going to buy it when it’s on sale again at the PS Store. I would have bought it the last time that it was on sale had I known that it was 8-9 hours instead of 3-4. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Remarkableriots Posted March 2 Share Posted March 2 I recently started playing a few PC games that I used to play and a couple I just started playing. Currently I'm playing Supreme Commander 2, StarCraft 2, Guild Wars 2 but I don't have the expansions, Star Wars: The Old Republic but no expansions also and Just Cause. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chakoo Posted March 2 Share Posted March 2 Still on rain code but picking up the pace. I’ve beaten chapter 3 last night and I’m now able to be through a chapter every 3-4 days (they’re not overly long, just I only get 1-2.5 hours a night to play). The game only has 6 chapters so I’m hoping to be done in 2 weeeks so I can move on to possibly unicorn overlord next. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phaseknox Posted March 3 Share Posted March 3 I started playing Indivisible, and I’m digging it. It’s a 2.5D side scrolling adventure platformer with active turn-based combat.

Sitting in my library ready to be played. Though from what I understand 505 shut down the developer which killed any potential for any sort of additional content. Which is why I found it odd it recently came to game pass. 🤔 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheLeon Posted March 3 Share Posted March 3 I think I’ve hit a mild gaming funk. Every game I boot up, within 5 minutes I’m irrationally annoyed at something and close it. What's funny is that I was planning on getting back into BG3 this week, but it didn’t take much for that game to set me off on a good day. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remarkableriots Posted March 4 Share Posted March 4 I started playing Star Trek Online again and Cargo!—The Quest for Gravity—on PC, which I had previously played a long time ago but never finished.

AbsolutSurgen Posted March 4 Share Posted March 4 Finished up Robocop. Solid 7/10 -- fun but flawed game. Started playing Gears 5 -- got most of the way through Act 1. It felt very nostalgic. I am a little conflicted on how to play this game. I normally play all 3rd person games with a controller, but after playing Robocop with M/KB, I hate aiming with a controller. I think I will finish this one out with the controller, just so that I don't need to relearn the controls. But thinking I may make the switch with Horizon:FW to play with KB/M. Also playing tons of Balatro on SD. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keyser_Soze Posted March 4 Share Posted March 4 Since I finished Dragon's Dogma and figured out how I could concentrate my efforts to beat a game, I've returned to Armored Core 3. I think the biggest hurdle for these games is you have to make money to get all the good parts again but I only have 3 fights left in the Arena so I'm pretty good to go now. I have not been using consorts though and I'm wondering if I should give them a try 🤔 I've also been sprinkling in some Tactics Ogre Reborn on the deck.
