Sounds like a souped up version of Recettear. Which sounds great for me, as I loved Recettear. Capitalism, ho! Read more
Ah... Such great memories of Sen’s Fortress! Can’t wait until tomorrow! Read more
I put roughly 170 hours into it, though you can probably chop off 20 now that you can skip some menu-related stuff. Your mileage may vary. :) Read more
Eh, I think Jason’s perspective is fair. People who didn’t like XC1 are also less likely to like XC2. As someone who enjoyed the game, I had no problem with his take. Read more
Speaking of packed with J-Pop, I always found it hard to recommend Final Fantasy X-2. Gameplay-wise, I think it’s great. It brings back the excellent Job system for the first time since FFV, and its iteration of the series-staple Active Time Battle is the best in the series (fitting, since it was the last time it was… Read more
Blue Reflection is a JRPG I recently played to the Platinum trophy (its a crazy easy Platinum btw) and its quite good. Good soundtrack, likeable chracters, surprisingly engaging story, except its so mired in anime tropes its basically High School anime the game.

So you can switch him off? Great, I’ll be keeping The Good Boy ™ Boomer safe and away from danger. He doesn’t die in the game right? Right? Read more
