Guest, you're invited to help build our new TBT time capsule! It contains three parts, with some of its elements planned to open in 2029 and others not until the distant future of 2034. Get started in 2024 Community Time Capsule: Blueprints.
I most recently finished There Is No Game: Wrong Dimension. I liked it a lot. I even got all the achievements for it, since I enjoyed it enough to keep messing with it after I was done with the main game. I don't always do that, so that's noteworthy.
Having finally finished the game and having spent an inane amount of time that I normally wouldn't to complete all the side content, NieR Automata might be one of my favorite games at the moment. I'm primarily a retro RPG fan, but from the outset, NieR Automata looked like something special. The setting, the story, the gameplay, the characters. And I'm so happy to say that the long wait to play it (for me, not for people who buy sensible consoles like the PS4 or invest in a decent gaming PC) was well and truly worth it.
It is devastatingly sad in places, but despite that, it left me with a feeling of hope and catharsis. I would have liked to have played some of the other games in the NieR series, as it appears the additional context gained from those would make certain plot threads more impactful, but even as a standalone experience, it's rare I find a game that meets all the check boxes of (a) protagonist I like to play as, (b) good story, (c) compelling and emotional story that asks you to examine the game beyond the surface level text and to actually engage with it on an intellectual and metatextual level.
Just a very good game overall. Thank you so much, Yoko Taro!!
Finished playing the 2022 remake of Ib just now, after just under four hours! ^^ Got the ending I wanted and, while I'm not going for full completion on this one, I did do a quick little replay so I could go through the bonus areas that unlock after your first playthrough. Also viewed 146/150 paintings!
I was worried I wouldn't handle it well because I'm not always the best with intense parts in games, but I actually did just fine after all. There's a few chases and scares, but it's mainly more creepy/unsettling than anything. There's also a lot of more-or-less oddly cute elements to it, and the characters are very charming. Great indie pixel game, glad I finally played it for myself after falling in love with it through Youtube playthroughs several years back.
Beat Pokemon Super Mystery Dungeon's main story today! Between this and Pokemon X, my Pokemon itch has been fully satisfied... at least until Pokemon Scarlet/Violet are released. :]
I finished Final Fantasy IV last night. I think I prefer some of the later games, but I can understand why IV is still a beloved part of the franchise.
I finished Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas last night to complete Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy - The Definitive Edition. I'm glad I was able to finally experience all three of GTA 3, GTA Vice City, and GTA San Andreas. Although the remaster definitely could've been handled better in some aspects, it's fairly solid overall.
Decided that I'm finished with Pokémon Platinum! ^^ I didn't go completionist with it by any means ahaha, but I'm finished with all the postgame story and caught all the available legends and all that. I was going to try and fill out my Pokédex a bit more, but I got tired of it after a while (plus, I still have Legends: Arceus for a similar type of grind). There's always a chance I'll decide to come back to Platinum now and again, of course, but at least for now I think I'm ready to be done with it.
I beat Pokémon Violet about a week or two after its release. I really enjoyed it despite my favorite Pokémon not being in the game. I play very few games that can actually “be finished.” I’m more of a sports gamer, so I don’t find myself in this thread all that often.
