Good news - chocolate rations have increased from 30 grams to 20 grams

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

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.

No. Tired of people

I was always worried about perfectly round holes in the ground and falling into them. Looney Tunes really over-represented how common they were.

I highly recommend the lobster soup from Seabaron if you’re into that

Poop butt can’t help themselves, shit ass can but chooses not to

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.

They have it all figured out - except for when to use “an” instead of “a”

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.

Baaah!

As if she ever stops at 400

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.

It’s free to play, there’s a huge market for skins, and some gambling addiction to go with it. The perfect storm.
