That sounds awesome. I’m imagining it in the style of Dark Souls, but a reskin would be fun.

sorry for the downtime everyone.

Thank you for the uptime.

Obligatory Bloodborne mention.

Not sure if it’s been done already, but Zelda LttP would be cool. I haven’t played Echoes of Wisdom though I like the art style and could see it working well.

Goldeneye + Perfect Dark.

I think I’ll try FOR since it’s on SALE.

Terms like “connect”, “be present”, “superpower” tell me this is not for the average working person, but the higher paid bosses of such people who can do whatever they want.

I felt the same way before watching it. It’s likely you have at least seen clips of it elsewhere. It’s a good watch, go for it!

The Wicker Man

Bees. It’s always bees.

Bleak Sword DX

I got stuck on a tough boss for a while, so I replayed some earlier levels to level up my character. We’re back in business. It didn’t even feel like a grind since each area/battle is short and gameplay feels great. Maybe 15 minutes to get the 2 level ups I needed. I’m enjoying the steady increase in difficulty and how new enemies are introduced. The game does a good job of making you assess the situation and use the techniques available to overcome it. There’s even some fire/environmental hazards that can be used to your advantage.

Fae Tactics

Also got stuck on a (boss?) fight, so I took some time to rearrange my party and spells to get some better elemental synergy and buffs and it worked! Definitely feels rewarding and, well, tactful.

9 is one of the best. Not sure what you didn’t like about 8, but 9 feels a lot more true to the older games imo.

I love them. FFIX was the reason I got a Playstation (2). To me, VI to X + Tactics were peak. I had a hard time finishing the older ones even though they were decent, but from VI forward it seems like they put a lot of thought into the characters.

I own FFXIII AND XIII-2 but didn’t get more than 5 minutes in thanks to the battle system. One day I’ll give them another try.

I really like the trope of a secret island in a corner of the world map.

Seriously. Not everyone can afford to “roam” in the first place.

I feel this. I’ve been playing it on medium-ish settings to compensate. It will be a blast when you do play!

You’re in for a treat. Currently have some of the DLC in my backlog

PLAY GWENT. The minigame became somewhat notorious because it’s really good - you can spend dozens of hours travelling the world and just playing cards.

It’s pizza pops all the way down

There’s a turn-based RPG sale/event happening on Steam right now. I can’t vouch for any of those games, but new ones do exist.

As for why they seem to have declined in popularity I can only guess - smartphones happened, removing the need for a home computer from many would-be RTS gamers.
