I like turtles.
I didn't hate Graces. Malik and Pascal are bae. :c

Took me a little over two years to finish it though because I was playing through with friends and we all had to coordinate schedules to play together.

I might have something similar going on that I did with FFXIII as well, where I don't have enough experience with other games in the series to judge it in context.

I'm playing Paper Jam atm.  I'm trying to not use the amiibos so much.  That killed the game for me last time.

i was thinking that too when i realized i really liked berseria. but there's so little time and so many games lol

started the last guardian. it's a great tech demo for sure. as a game i dunno if i can manage to bother beating it anytime soon though

Each one has a set of cards assigned to it that do different things.  I have 9 of them, so each little battle can include me scanning 9 amiibos.  1 to increase the exp, 1 to increase the coins, 1 to make my attack cost no BP, 1 to increase my star points, etc etc.  I end up spending more time scanning the amiibos than playing the game and get burned out.

Yeah that sounds like a great thing to not do

Berseria's the exception to the rule, though. A lot of people see it as a return to form after a bunch of disappointing titles under Baba.

Also, Graces is fucking awful. Going from Symphonia to that game was just... why.

I'll probably post my thoughts/experience on the Souls board because the game is pretty similar... starting Nioh in a few days.

definitely wasn't the next game after symphonia though

Well, what I meant was I played it right after Symphonia. It was hot garbage. Bad dungeons. Empty-ass towns. Obnoxious story and characters. I don't know how I managed to finish the main game.

well, that game is all about the combat

whereas the combat in symphonia kind of blows

That doesn't mean you should take a better battle system in exchange for everything else being worse. The overall package is more important than individual parts.

that's an opinion i don't share. i can like a game for whatever reason i want

i've been on the fence on that one since forever. looking forward to your review

started the post-game dungeon in berseria yesterday and got bored after a couple of fights. i might put this one down for good. great story and characters, but the combat is just too lame

Nioh is a pretty good game that fails miserably at trying to be Souls

If you keep that in mind and are resistant to extreme levels of repetition and Diablo loot, you'll probably enjoy it
