Atlus keeps making me regret buying their games on release with these definitive editions that are definitely better versions of the games but are sold for the same price with no option to upgrade from the original version.

I had the same experience with the game. It has a really cool world and story but as I finished the game, because I guess I wanted to be able to say I’ve finished one of the classics, I felt mostly just annoyed. There were moments where the game felt truly magical but the controls were constantly stopping me from getting immersed. It’s one of those unfortunate instances where everything else is great but it fails for me in the most important aspect of a game which is the gameplay.

Sure there aren’t that many cards but those cards are so well balanced. Every single card has its uses so you’re constantly presented with interesting decisions. It feels like almost every other roguelike has dead time where you’re just going through the motions whereas in slay the spire you’re making decisions from floor 1.

This is the first I hear about tri-Ace games. Thanks!

I've played Persona 4 and 5 and am really looking forward to P3 Reloaded but it's not quite the same enjoyment I found in those games as in the mainline SMT games. Party composition is not as much of a thing in Persona. I've seen Etrian Odyssey mentioned a few times before in the Megaten fandom so it seems like something I'd be into. The mainline games I've played are Nocturne, SMTIV and SMTV. I'm definitely playing Strange Journey next and then maybe Digital Devil Saga.

I am grinding ranked in Splatoon 3. I wish this game wasn’t so underrated as a competitive game outside of Japan.

Would you like them to test on you instead?

A Short Hike only took me around two hours to finish but those were some of the finest two hours I’ve experienced.
