Why You Should Play Parasite Eve
This video was meant to be up yesterday but then internet issues came up so it's here now! Parasite Eve was exactly as good as I was hoping it would be and I'm already enjoying seeing others play it since I beat the game. Here's hoping Square Enix can bring the original back in some form.

Time for young Adol to take the wheel. Of a ship no less! Ys X introduces many things from a new combat system and sailing to the Normans and a shield sister for Adol in Karja. It's a good time and I give my breakdown in this video.
Why I'm Excited For Fantasian Neo Dimension

There are a few games that I've always thought I would play if they came to the right platform and Fantasian was one of them. Now we just gotta work on getting 13 Sentinels to PC and I'll be all set.
Why You Should Play Visions of Mana

I sincerely hope that people don't pass by Visions of Mana because it is truly a good game. Rough at times sure, but within it is the passion that makes for some great experiences as well. Code provided by Square Enix

Already in the beginning of 2025 we have 4 significant remasters announced. Coincidence? Maybe, but an intriguing example of what we might be able to enjoy if the game industry has decided to embrace the remaster. What do y'all think?

Why I'm Excited For Metaphor ReFantazio
Просмотров 5642 месяца назад
After finishing the prologue demo for the game I knew that I needed to get this video out quick, so here we are. Metaphor ReFantazio has been a fun time so far and I anticipate even more fun moving forward. What do all of you think of Atlus's upcoming release. And thus concludes Atlus September for the channel, time to talk about some other companies' games for a little while.
Why You Should Play Persona 3

Persona 3 has been a dominant influence on RPGs for nearly 2 decades now, and that's not slowing down with the recent Persona 3 Reload release. So I'm jumping it to talk about why you should play Persona 3, and I do mean Persona 3 not just Reload. Watch to find out why. Shout out to LadyVirgilia as always for her great work on Persona as a series and Persona 3 as a game, here's a link to her ch...
Next Game Up Unicorn Overlord 2
Просмотров 1,4 тыс.3 месяца назад
Reuploaded due to a video issue in the first version. A sequel may seem unlikely now, but we should prepare ourselves just in case Vanillaware decides to pleasantly surprise us. Besides Unicorn Overlord has so much potential for a series it seems a shame to not discuss the possibilities at the very least.
Why You Should Play Trails Through Daybreak
Просмотров 1,3 тыс.3 месяца назад
The Calvard arc has finally arrived with a new hybrid combat system, an updated arts system, a graphical improvement from the engine switch, and a new tale with new characters to fall in love with. And fall in love I did, 80 hours later here I am to explain why you should also play Trails Through Daybreak.
Why I'm Excited For Visions of Mana
Просмотров 5504 месяца назад
The demo recently came out, so now it's time to talk about Visions of Mana. The first new Mana game since 2006, is this a triumphant return that will blow us all away, a stumble in the series path back, or as I think a fun but flawed game that will be a good but not great time.
5 RPG Series I Haven't Played...Yet
Просмотров 5584 месяца назад
We all have those game series we have yet to get to even though people keep insisting it's a great series or that we would love the games. It's not because we think they're wrong (okay most of the time it's not) but there are many factors. Well here is my list of 5 RPG series I have yet to play, but do intend to play in the future at some point.
Why You Should Play Eiyuden Chronicle Hundred Heroes
Просмотров 4645 месяцев назад
It's been a long time coming and as you can tell, I've got a lot to say about this game. Eiyuden Chronicle Hundred Heroes is a good game most of the time and a real treat for fans of the Suikoden series who have been waiting so long for another series to take up the mantle.

Reupload since there was an error in the previous video. Less than a month until Daybreak overs Calvard. I and many other have been enjoying the demo recently, but the full game is still a little ways away. There is plenty to talk about and getting hyped for so let's talk about Trails Through Daybreak
Why You Should Play Unicorn Overlord
Просмотров 1,2 тыс.6 месяцев назад
There are few RPGs I would describe as addicting but Unicorn Overlord is one of them. I was always ready for more and that plus having it on Switch made it very easy to spend lots of time on the game. The return on my time investment was a fun game with a standout visual presentation and plenty to consider on how to make a fun strategy RPG. You should try out the demo if you have not already.

My Predictions For The RPG and Game of the Year Nominees
Great video great game
How can I play ? This is my all time favorite but it sells for $100 and up.
Well...emulation is always an option
I bought a ps1 classic been trying to put an emulator on it for about a week no luck for me
New to emulating
all timer
It's one one the best games made in still playing it this day ❤
I can't imagine how it felt at the time to play as well if it's this good now
@CommRio i was glued to it as a late teen and still haven't found one that hold the same nostalgia you can find it on some emulators
Two years later, but if you haven’t played or listened to Eternal Sonata and its soundtrack you absolutely need to.
It's a game that everytime I see someone talk about I'm like yeah I should play Parasite Eve wish it was a little more accessible to play on modern hardware. I'll add it to the never ending I should play this game list. Glad you enjoyed it and think it holds up.
I hope you get the chance to play sometime in the future
You can play it on your phone
@@daniellion5291 how?
don't be sad because of the low views you are getting , just anime like content isn't trendy enough , you deserve better
Thank you, although I’m not worried. In my experience my videos have a long shelf life, my most viewed video ever took a while to even hit 1,000 views
My gripes with the combat system I wish they fix in the next installment: Blocking is too strong. I think holding block should not be a viable strategy in Ys. I'd make regular attacks break the block more. Timing windows are a bit too lax imo, especially for the parry. The way you can chain revives one after the other is just ridiculous. Revive should not have iv frames, to this extend at least. While the blue attacks are nice, it would feel way better to dodge them by timing the short dash correctly (basically how flash dodge worked in earlier games. I loved that mechanic). Holding sprint feels way too dumbed down. (You can see the effect this has at 5:08. Hold sprint and run in a circle is what it boils down to)
Play because it's PEAK!
Yes, in summary
they still making psvita game
Been having fun streaming Ys 10, and Karja might be one of my favorite Ys heroines
She's a lot of fun and I think part of it is because she has such a different relationship with Adol as previous Ys heroines do. Plus her fun personality and Cherami Leigh's performance of course
@@CommRio indeed. I think its the first main female char on Ys (that i know) breaking the troupe we got so used to on the franchise for so many years. She sure is a breath of fresh air. She may not be best girl dana, but man is she a treat.
Adol and Karja arent the ONLY ones with the power of mana, Jarl Grimson also has it
When the game was first reveal and i saw gameplay i honestly felt nothing at all, like it didn't look bad but nothing was exciting me at all, than i tried the jp demo and still nothing but i was always gonna give it a try since i love ys and after playing the western release i really enjoyed it. it was a bit slow at first and took time to get used to the new combat but after chapter 4 when it opens up its a full speed banger
I'm glad that the game came around for you. This is what I was talking about with the system building up though because now they'll have a chance to get that banger feeling right out the gate for the next Ys game
pretty sure he is 17 in game
So he is, my bad
The Mana String mechanic in this game gave me an experience I never knew I wanted: Adol as Spider-man. After I got used to it, it was fun as all hell, between this and what we got with wall crawling in Ys 8, I just wish we could go all the way and get a Spider-Adol game. The bottom line for me on this game is that it's a load of fun, one of the most fun to play games I've played all year. It's not perfect, but my biggest takeaway with a game is, do I look forward to playing more of it? By the end of my time with Yakuza Like a Dragon and Persona 3 Reload, the game was dragging on and I didn't really want to keep playing it, but I pushed myself through, those games were fun most of the way through, but I feel like at a certain point they both ran out of things to say. With Witchspring R and Trails through Daybreak, those games were games I was looking forward to playing all the way to the very end. I don't know which way Ys 10 will go yet, as I'm currently playing it, but it's fun as hell so far. It was a bit slow in the beginning and took a while to get going, as others have mentioned. Regarding the environmental art, I think it's very well done. Not everything needs the level of detail of a Mana game, as these two games are going for different look and feels. Mana tries to be much more cartoony, which can be a turn off to some people. I personally like both styles, but Ys environmental art is going for a more realistic, Northern European look and feel, and not a more cartoony isekia world look and feel. With Ys 10 obviously being about Vikings, going for the highly detailed, cartoony Mana game environmental design would be a poor choice. That being said, my #1 criteria for environmental design when I play a game is: is the art team just being lazy, or are they completely underfunded? I've played plenty of games where the background art is just a smudged, grayish blob where the lights are turned dim so that you can't see any details (because there aren't any) and games like that, and anime like that, are always a turn-off. Thanks for the video as always, and I can't wait for your next drop!
I loooooove this game so so so much
I found the game looking through the switch eshop games on sale and managed to snag it for somewhere around 90% off. I only watched a bit of the gameplay trailer before buying it and immediately knew it would be a great choice for me. Your review really echoes a lot of my feelings on the game and I honestly feel like if the combat was even slightly more complex it might've taken away from the experience of just breezing through the sea.
At the price it's been on sale the game is an absolute steal. Glad more people are finding the game that way
Do you know how big stadiums you can build in this game?
Just played Ys Origin and beat it 3 times with all 3 characters. It was good fun.
if you start TOF be prepared to spend 300 hours in the game to experience all this game has to offer, My favorite tales game :)
if the story wasnt good, id have probly dropped this game. The puzzles were extremely difficult for me (i had to turn down the timer after the desert temple). But i loved the characters and story so i kept going <3
I played this as a kid on the ps2 I loved it couldn’t remember the name for the longest time but never forgot about it
Played it in january after finishing Azure and had an absolute blast with it over 39h. Now I'm jumping into the Ys series and finished Ys II just today!
A great sequence of games!
Pretty goated protag reminds me alot of Ragna(Blazblue)
Excited for Dec 5th got the game preordered! =)
About time Square Enix brings back turn-based. I hope they'll stop doing this 2 steps forward 3 steps back.
It’s brother Nier!!!! But I’ll definitely be picking this game up, looks amazing to play on Portal
Im glad this is coming too consoles. But i think the price of 60$ is too much, when you consider this was an apple arcade release...
Is that for physical? Because on Steam it’s $50
@@CommRio At least its the Price for PS5 and Switch over here in Europe (even on the PSN/eshop Store)
[NOD] ...HI!
Reason #1: Ragna but a girl, AKA 100% a badass
as a long time fan of Mana, i want to say they have already made the better combat system for Mana. we call it Finalfantasy 15. visions did get the visuals right but the combat gameplay could still be better. the mana games have been BUILT on SD2, and SD3, both have multiplayer and the possibility for team play, and the modern mana games are missing that, and so are also missing the element that made Mana big in the first place. well, at least we got the art and visuals right.
Final Fantasy 15s combat sucks
Looks decent let's see if it lives up to the hype.
They are up to date almost now right?
They're getting real close, once Trails Through Daybreak II releases in February that will leave one game unlocalized
Hopefully we'll get ports of lost odyssey and blue dragon at some point
That would be nice but I'm not holding my breath
It looks stunning. Can't believe they were scale models, thats awsome
so glad this is coming to consoles. it always looked interesting to me but i just didnt want to play an rpg on my phone
Agreed
I've been thinking about this the rate that game studios are being closed down it makes sense when you look at the huge back catalogue of games out there.
Looks fun. I hope you enjoy it. I am still busy with my backlog. I will not buy any new games for now since I already have enough to play as is. But still, looks good. Have fun.
Enjoy the backlog, the games will still be there when you’re ready
Oh man I totally forgot this was coming out Thanks for the timely reminder Yet one more that I must play as soon as I find the time
Time is a precious thing, I’m only now getting to Metaphor because of how busy the schedule has been
@@CommRio I get what you mean. I haven't had time for Metaphor either, even though I was originally planning to play it at launch. Real life stuff happened and now I'm waiting until I have a long break to play it at a stretch. If it's anything like Persona, I don't want to my time with it to be broken apart too much
Dude I didn't know this was coming! I'm totally going to try it at least. Ngl I wish I could just play it on my android lol
Yeah it would be nice and I imagine not too hard to do an android port but for now it seems unlikely
How would you "try" it? By buying it at full price?
Did sample Fantasian when i got my iphone 15 last year and it was pretty neat. Probably pick it up on switch physically since im hearing hard copies might be limited
Yeah for games like this there usually isn't a large supply of physical, but since I'll be getting it for PC I haven't had to deal with that too often
I am looking forward to this one. I am curious to see review scores for the console version.
Me too, I suspect that the scores will be up soon given how close we are to release
no mobile for me, friend
It's coming to console and PC, that's what this release is, but if it's origins from mobile are too much I understand
This game is incredibly fun and the art is superb. I spent more time listening to the bgm and enjoying the view. The only downside for me is it's too short.
I bought it BECAUSE it's short. Platinumed rebirth prior to this. Don't have more time for long games
