Still on Baten Kaitos, of course.
As if the game itself read my last post, something major happened in the story and I was forced to use a few different characters. Getting their decks up to speed was surprisingly fast, although I didn't have enough good cards for them to actually replace the missing characters. Mostly because I never chose their cards from the available drops - as you can keep only one drop per battle. I am, however, still annoyed by benched characters getting only half EXP.
Overall, I always liked the story, but the second half of the game started off stronger than what came before. Sadly, it was accompanied by some backtracking through all the major dungeons. It only took a few hours, 2 or 3 I think, but battling enemies you've outleveled isn't interesting, but it's still slow.
Nothing else came up, but just for the counter, Silksong is on my list! Which means I'll probably play it this year or next one. I've long outgrown the need to consume things as they release.
Same here. I am still somewhere around 2018 or so, but I do make exceptions for some games, and this seems like a good game to make exception for.
