I just bought Theatrhythm last week so I might play more of that. It's pretty funny I never thought I would enjoy rhythm games but I found myself really liking this one.

If time permits I'll also continue playing Lightning Returns: Final Fantasy XIII

I have really been on a Final Fantasy binge this year lol. Earlier this week I finished Final Fantasy II. I was actually expecting it to have a barebones story like the first game so I was surprised when I found out it actually had a cast of characters. The leveling system grew on me over time but the encounter rate felt a lot higher even compared to the first game. On top of that, I was not a fan of how many empty rooms were in the dungeons. Overall I enjoyed it but I don't know if I would play it again.

Now I'm about 6 hours into Lightning Returns: Final Fantasy XIII which is the last game in the trilogy. I was worried going into this game because I found out it has a doomsday clock mechanic. It actually isn't as bad as I thought it would be though. I also wasn't fond of the new combat system but after a few hours, I think I'm really starting to enjoy it. I'm currently on the third day so I'm looking forward to playing more this weekend.

I actually managed to beat the main story quests for a realm reborn in Final Fantasy XIV. I'm going to be taking a break and then dive into the post game quests.

I have also started the pixel remaster for Final Fantasy II. So far I'm about 3 hours in and it definitely feels different from the first game lol. Looking forward to playing more of it.

That moment when you remember Hollow Knight Silksong was being made in Unity...RIP

This should've been a part of the direct omg. I'm definitely giving it a try

I never played this game or Mario RPG and now I get to play both on the same console!

Huh, looks like the trend of Wednesday announcements for September directs continues 😅

I just finished the pixel remaster for Final Fantasy IV a couple days ago. It was a really solid game all-around. I really love how much time is saved from grinding using the exp boosts. The final boss was actually quite challenging for me. I think it took me about 5 attempts to beat it.

This weekend I will likely be doing the splatfest in Splatoon 3. If I can, I might also try to play Final Fantasy XIV. I didn't even realize it but I'm almost done with all the main quests for a realm reborn. After that I'll still have the post game quests though 😅.

I had a rather stressful week so I'm really looking forward to relaxing on this 3 day weekend

I'm about 15 hours into Final Fantasy XIII-2. I think I might be able to finish it this weekend. I have to say I'm really surprised at how much I enjoyed the game. I liked the original game but I do think this one is a step up for the most part.

Honestly, I'll probably be getting both at some point lol

I'm a little over 10 hours into Final Fantasy XIII-2 and I've started to get a little annoyed with finding artifacts to open gates. There have been times when I miss something from a previous area then I have to go back and explore again. It's a shame because I really have been liking the game otherwise.

I might go back to Xenoblade Chronicles 3. I'm getting really close to completing it to 100%. Everybody just has about 5 classes to get to level 20. I've also got a few more unique monsters to beat!

@yuuji77 Well they said that Xenoblade 3 was supposed to be the end of the Klaus saga. A new game will likely start a brand new story altogether.

As long as the combat system feels unique I think I'll be fine.

I don't understand why this game is so hard for them to fix. After playing Vesperia I was really hoping they would bring more Tales games to switch. Now they did and it's still a mess smh.

I've got some work to finish unfortunately but if I get the time I'll continue Final Fantasy XIII-2. I'm currently over 8 hours into the game. The story is a little confusing but I'm liking it overall.

I kind of wonder why fame was even an option. Don't most famous people have money? 😅

I finished Fire Emblem Engage earlier this week. I really enjoyed it overall. Although I do feel like there were a bit too many characters. I ended up developing favorites so I would like to maybe replay and use some of the characters that I left on the bench.

I'm now returning to Final Fantasy XIII-2. I'm about 4 hours in and I'm really enjoying it! It's not as linear as the base game and the combat is still awesome. The soundtrack is also amazing but I don't really like how they brought back some type of random encounters. Overall, so far so good.

I listen to all of these soundtracks outside of the game on pretty much a regular basis. I really can't pick a favorite lol. Even the expansions for each of these have incredible music.

This is not an announcement I was expecting but it is definitely a welcome one lol.

Currently about 26 hours into Fire Emblem Engage. I haven't been able to play anything since last weekend so I'm really looking forward to relaxing again lol. I might play it the entire weekend so who knows maybe I'll finish it on Sunday 😅

I don't know...it seems a little unlikely, but then again... I thought the switch's lifetime sales would be around 120 million. So I've been wrong before 😅

@Dragnoran I enjoyed how online actually split up competitive and casual players. Whenever I wanted to play a bit more competitively I could choose for glory, and if I wanted to play casually I could choose for fun.

In ultimate I either have to rely on either preferred rules (which doesn't always give you your preferred ruleset) or arenas. On top of that I actually used to play the Smash Tour mode all the time with my siblings. It was like a smash bros version of Mario Party which we absolutely loved lol.

A bigger roster doesn't improve the game and it wouldn't renew my interest. This is still my least favorite Smash Bros game (so many characters and very lackluster content imo) so I would rather take a new game over adding new characters to Ultimate.

Fire Emblem Engage has really started to hook me last weekend. I think I just got to chapter 12 and I'll likely be playing that this weekend. I stayed up late last night doing school work so I could have my weekend completely free

This weekend I might play more Fire Emblem Engage and I'm not sure why but I recently have had an urge to play Final Fantasy XIV again. So I've been continuing my journey through ARR

I actually got Fire Emblem Engage for my birthday earlier this week! If I have the time I'll likely be playing that!

I've played 4 and 11 (enjoyed them both a lot!). I've got 5, 6, and 9 but I haven't started any of those yet. I really wonder where that remake for Dragon quest 3 is 🤔

I actually just bought the pixel remaster for the first final fantasy on Saturday and I managed to finish it last night lol. I did not expect to enjoy it so much.

I was just talking to my brothers the other day about how I missed Koopa Cape and now it's making a comeback lol! That's definitely the course I'm most hyped for. I just hope they don't change it too much 😅

This weekend I think I'm finally going to finish 13 Sentinels: Aegis Rim. I got this game for Christmas last year and I started playing it back in April. At this point I think I'm ready for it to be over 😅. Currently I'm at 95% for the story. I think I'm over 35 hours into the game now.

Last weekend I finally finished Tales of Arise after 2 months. It was a good game overall but the last quarter really felt a bit rushed. I also really didn't like all the back to back skits throughout the game. It was especially bad towards the end. Otherwise I also finished the first mega man zero game! It was quite challenging but I'm looking forward to playing the next one!

I'm also currently 31 hours into 13 Sentinels: Aegis Rim and I think im getting really close to the end. I finished wave 10 for the second area. I really like how the story is told in this game but I don't really know how to feel about the combat. My plan was to do the story until I couldn't progress anymore and then focus on the battles but after doing 1 or 2 battles I just feel like stopping lol. I might've enjoyed this game better if I balanced out the battles and story better 😅

You know, the only 2023 release I've played is Future Redeemed for XC3 😅 I haven't played anything else from this year.

I'm 42 hours into Tales of Arise now and I think I'm halfway through the last dungeon. (I just reached the lower floors). This is only my 3rd Tales game but man, their final dungeons always feel so long. So many skits appear back to back which makes it feel even longer. Hoping to finish it this weekend!

I'm also about 22 hours into 13 Sentinels: Aegis Rim. Once I finish Tales of Arise I'll try and make some progress with this one.

The whole series is on one system...Man it is truly time for me to give this series an honest try

I seriously have no clue what to expect from this Direct. I think we'll see the Persona 3 remake but that's the only thing I'm expecting lol.

Lets goooooooo! I was really getting the itch for one of these lately lol

Father's day is this weekend so I'm gonna spend a lot of time with my dad! I finished up my final projects for my classes so I may have more time to play games next week . I'm hoping to finally finish Tales of Arise. I'm about 31 hours into that game and I just defeated the fifth lord. I'm also about 21 hours into 13 Sentinels: Aegis Rim. I have been trying to beat both of these games since April 😅

To this day I still have not played this game. Part of me wants to try it because RPGs are my favorite genre and this game is so heavily praised. Yet for some reason it just doesn't look interesting to me.

I will be playing my favorite game called homework! Normally I'd try and finish my work before the weekend but this week my professor took a really long time to respond to my emails 😅. It's only one assignment though so maybe I'll have Sunday free.

Man, idk what is happening with NISA. They already take ages to localize games and I feel like half of their ports haven't been that great either.

I kind of wish there would be one because I'm starting to get that itch for a new Nintendo Direct lol. But hey I've had so little time to play games lately so it isn't the end of the world if there isn't one.

Still working on the same games: Tales of Arise and 13 Sentinels: Aegis Rim. I've been trying to beat these games for a while but I swear life has just been so busy lately 😅

I played this game for the first time on Switch a couple of years ago and loved it. I should replay it and get to the DLC as well.

YES now I get to have icons not only for 3 but the whole series

Still going at 13 Sentinels: Aegis Rim and Tales of Arise!

I have never played anything in this series and I would love to start. So I'm really hoping they do arrive on switch 🙏

I'm still going through 13 Sentinels: Aegis Rim and Tales of Arise. Although I am going to hangout with some of my coworkers this weekend so I may not get that much time.

I might try and play 13 Sentinels: Aegis Rim or Tales of Arise but I have no clue how much time I'll have this weekend 😅. I'm about 13 hours into both of them.

Well no surprise there! Monolithsoft is legendary!

On Monday this week I actually finished Xenoblade Chronicles 3: Future Redeemed to 100% completion. I absolutely enjoyed the game and I actually wanted it to be a little longer because I was having so much fun lol. Now I'm tempted to replay the entire series through ng+ lol.

This weekend I might jump back into Tales of Arise or 13 Sentinels: Aegis Rim. I'm about 8 hours into both of them.
