Not to be dramatic but I really love how much of your channel is dedicated to celebrating and appreciating your friends and family. I really can’t personally think of any other gaming channels that naturally highlight it the way you do and it’s just a great thing to see on the internet
Kim is such a joy to see on the show and she is such a treasure, we all need someone like that in our lives, never stop being awesome Kim and Johnny :)
“Do you feel like you’ve wasted your time playing these games?” “God no. I went on so many adventures.” That was beautifully said. A testament of the value of not only RPGs, but video games as a whole.
Kim reminds me of me. I didn't play many video games until I met my husband. He got me hooked on Final Fantasy games, and I found your channel and a whole new world of gaming opened up for me!!! Thank You!
I remember around when kim first started appearing on the show, she shared some of her video game memories, which included donkey Kong country on snes, a bowling game on N64, and Halo on Xbox. Look at her now. Enough experience to do an entire episode on the RPG's she's finished alone. It was great hearing Kim and John get nostalgic together.
You're not kidding. Those endless hallway dungeons filled with random encounters piss me off! Which is why I think I'm not enjoying Metaphor as much as I thought I would. The dungeons are giving me those Nocturne flashbacks, but without the random encounters.
@@catatonic165 No, I mean almost all of them are just winding hallways with the same few mobs scattered about with little variation. And that applies even more so to side dungeons. It's just the same looking endless hallways. It's old school Nocturne, only without the difficulty. They're nothing like SMT V or even Persona 5 in terms of variety, verticality, exploration, puzzles, or interesting concepts. Maybe it's closer to Persona 4's procedural floor looking designs
As a female gamer that got into playing in my late 20s, I love hearing about the games Kim plays. Her taste sounds really similar to mine and it’s encouraging to hear her finish these long jrpgs that are still on my backlog. 😅
you're lucky you've found each other in this life - keep up your possitive atittude towards gaming and enjoy every new release. greetings from Greece !
Crazy! When u pulled out South Park stick of truth. I’m actually playing this right now. Never played through it before. Somehow it’s eluded me the last 10 years. And it’s fantastic!
What a great episode! Thank you guys for all you do and making all of our Sundays that much better. There’s nothing better than listening to you guys talk RPG’s, in my opinion.
Its from persona 3 I have that jacket I got online through a website called M.RAGE Astral systems. They are pricey tho. They have another p3 jacket that is also cool
I haven't watched your channel in quite a few years, but have always seen your new videos pop in my Subscriptions and finally got around to watch this one today and I'm SO HAPPY to see you still have the passion and energy, plus sharing your experiences with yourself and Kim going through games together! So glad I came back to this video and I'm so happy to see you and Kim again, Johnny! Also, RPGs are the best to share with! I've been trying to get my best friend to get into them and the first choice I gave them was Final Fantasy X! Can't wait for them to play it!
I’m a carpenter that makes furniture and art all day in my shop and so I don’t get a lot of time playing games any more. But I love watching new reviews and post you put out. Keep up the great work.
The relationship you guys have is so special and I just love how you treat her. You are so reassuring and enthusiastic towards her passion. Such a fun video! I’m a 42 year old gamer myself and have played a lot of these, but definetly wanna jump into more of them! Great job Kim! 😊
This is one of the few times I was happy to see an Ad. I know Johnny loves SMT5 so It comes off genuine and not like a car salesman. lol. Proud of you! I adore these videos. Whenever you have someone on that matches your passion and get to talk about games, those are truly some of your best content. It makes me happy seeing you guys happy. Also Got TMS on switch when it lauched, but i havent put it in my switch even once. xD my backlog is asinine.
I am playing balders gate 3 right now and man i am only 6-7 hrs in and man let me tell you its a frinkin masterpiece now i understand why this game wins soo many awards and praises i am soo excited to play more
I watch a lot of gaming channels but for some reason this channel and tech dweeb have such a cozy genuine feel I get so excited to watch any videos by you two! You guys have such fun stories spanning decades!
Amazing episode you guys! Great RPG reviews on the ATLUS side. You guys definitely got me replaying my original PS2 Shin Megami Tensi Nocturne. Everyone should play this game. It’s so dark and good. Thank You Kim & Johnny!
Kim is the secret sauce!! And well said at the end there! So many adventures!! Not anytime wasted! Curious if you would like the strag RPGs like Unicorn Overlord, Triangle Strategy or Fire Emblem
Seeing you and Kim definitely puts a smile on my face. I love your enthusiasm and passion for gaming. It's infectious and contagious. My weekend isn't complete without a Happy Console Gamer video. Thanks, Johnny and Kim! As always, I really appreciate it! God bless and stay safe!
I am very belatedly playing Octopath Traveler 1 and 2.. bought the collection when they came ou together for PS5.. right now just at the beginning of the first one and have 3 characters so far. Good on you man for finding a lady to be your partner that loves gaming too!!
Always love seeing Kim! I would LOVE Kim to try the Trails of Cold Steel series. I think she would love it as it’s kinda like Persona and the combat is so fun!
Dragon Quest is my favorite series, Kim has great taste in RPG’s. She clearly liked Final Fantasy IX, I loved that game because it finally returned to the fantasy setting. Hopefully the rumors of a remake are true.
Great upload! Kim is indeed a powerhouse! Great taste too. I love a bunch of the games shown here. I did end up buying smt 5 vengance for switch for half off yesterday too! Loved the original smt 5 a few years back. Keep up the great content guys!
Super cute video! I think two games Kim might like is also Snack World and Dragon Quest Monsters: The Dark Prince. Snack World is a dungeon crawler RPG with unique classes, and DQM is more of an open world, monster collecting RPG! I hope we can see her play more games on the channel soon 🤗
Ni no Kuni 1 and 2 are by far some of my fav games I’ve ever played! I’m with you Kim! The characters and story are what make it! The art style is amazing. There’s so much to do, and it’s so satisfying to complete it all!
Some RPGs I'm playing right now...... -Chained Echoes (literally Final Fantasy VI with more the mecha element, and I already love it) -Skald: Against the Black Priory (amazing throwback to classic CRPGs like Ultima, and with the Commodore 64 aesthetic too) -Dragon Quest XI (My favorite Dragon Quest game, especially for the amazing storytelling and world-building) -Star Ocean: The Second Story R (amazing remake of an amazing action RPG on the PS1) -Front Mission 3 (one of my favorite strategy RPGs for the PS1, plus it's literally Armored Core the RPG) -Ring of Red (dieselpunk mecha with storytelling nowhere outta place in Gundam 0083, 'nuff said) -Xenogears Perfect Works Build (literally my true GOTY 2024, mostly because of how they've handled the re-translation and quality of life stuff, and they're still working on this game even now)
I went into Dragon Quest Builders 2 because of this channel. It became one of my favorite games. Fantastic game play and what a surprisingly good story.
I am so happy for you guys, you guys are so awesome to watch together. Question for Kim, you ever played the Harvest Moon series of games? I got my wife into them and she loves them. She loves the relaxing kinda of games. Great vids 😊
This was a brilliant video for some one who is just about to get into the persona games it’s given me a great insight to the games I want to play thanks guys your the tops 👍👍👍
Kim is a treasure. She's really come into her own with the RPG genre. We love to see it! Keep rocking Kim! To your question: Currently I'm playing Beyond Oasis and dabbling in Persona 3 Reload. As always, have a good one Johnny!
Wanted to thank you both for recommending Chrono trigger, just finished first playthrough last night on ds (I ordered snes version). It was really a special game
Over this year alone, I have platinum Atelier Ryza 1, Yakuza like a dragon, Persona 5 tactica, Fenix Immortal, Persona 3 Reload, Soul Hackers 2 and currently working through Metaphor. Loving the RPGs at the moment. Loving this channel and keep up the good work!! By the way, where can I find the Persona 3 jacket that Kim is wearing; I love it.
Just started Metaphor. Left it til the end of year when I knew I would have more time to jump into it. Loving it so far 10 hours in. Just finished DQ 3 HD too.
I've been loving the Voice of Cards Series. Only three games. Would be nice if they got released physically. Played on Switch. Kim may like it. Awesome narration, different feel, cool battle system.
I love that she really dove into his hobby when they met, and then it really began a hobby of hers. In the end way me and my girl have shared out love of games and hobbies with each other
I’m playing “Dragon Quest 3 HD-2D Remake” and it is highly recommended by myself and jrpg fans everywhere. After that, I have “Visions of Mana” still to play, not to mention all the Pixel Remasters that just released on Xbox. Sooo many rpgs to play it’s nuts right now lol
Not to be dramatic but I really love how much of your channel is dedicated to celebrating and appreciating your friends and family. I really can’t personally think of any other gaming channels that naturally highlight it the way you do and it’s just a great thing to see on the internet
this 100%
he values the people in his life that brought good times and good energy.
i watch his videos to feel “wholesome”
Agreed!🤩👍
The best thing is that he's always been authentic since the start
So true. Such a wholesome and genuine guy
MJR is really the only other one
Kim is such a joy to see on the show and she is such a treasure, we all need someone like that in our lives, never stop being awesome Kim and Johnny :)
This was SUCH a good video, man. I love how to held onto all the old photos of her playing these games. Wholesome stuff 🥺
Super cool to see you're a fan of HCG as well :)
Hey I know you. Hahahaha.
Wait, you watch this channel too? 😮
Duke fans stand up.
“Do you feel like you’ve wasted your time playing these games?”
“God no. I went on so many adventures.”
That was beautifully said. A testament of the value of not only RPGs, but video games as a whole.
Kim reminds me of me. I didn't play many video games until I met my husband. He got me hooked on Final Fantasy games, and I found your channel and a whole new world of gaming opened up for me!!! Thank You!
The fact that you took pics and vids of Kim finishing and playing games is so precious. Thanks for sharing this joy!
Johnny's getting sponsored by Sega/Atlus themselves! Always great to see big companies supporting our favorite gamers. Keep killin' it Kim & John!
I remember around when kim first started appearing on the show, she shared some of her video game memories, which included donkey Kong country on snes, a bowling game on N64, and Halo on Xbox. Look at her now. Enough experience to do an entire episode on the RPG's she's finished alone.
It was great hearing Kim and John get nostalgic together.
I got into RPG’s last year because of Kim’s enthusiasm of Sea Of Stars.
Thanks for the recommendation!
Kim having finished SMT 3 Nocturne gives her the ultimate RPG gamer respect!
Even as an RPG veteran I give up on that one, so frustrating late game! 😂
You're not kidding. Those endless hallway dungeons filled with random encounters piss me off!
Which is why I think I'm not enjoying Metaphor as much as I thought I would. The dungeons are giving me those Nocturne flashbacks, but without the random encounters.
@@corey2232 huh? The dungeons in metaphor are nothing like Nocturne, theyre very straight forward
@@catatonic165 No, I mean almost all of them are just winding hallways with the same few mobs scattered about with little variation. And that applies even more so to side dungeons. It's just the same looking endless hallways.
It's old school Nocturne, only without the difficulty. They're nothing like SMT V or even Persona 5 in terms of variety, verticality, exploration, puzzles, or interesting concepts. Maybe it's closer to Persona 4's procedural floor looking designs
I think she beat it on the new easy mode from the remaster though. Not quite the ultimate medal that it could be.
I watch you with my wife so seeing both of you together is always a welcome treat.
As a female gamer that got into playing in my late 20s, I love hearing about the games Kim plays. Her taste sounds really similar to mine and it’s encouraging to hear her finish these long jrpgs that are still on my backlog. 😅
Kim is a RUclips treasure
Females get more views. It's not supernatural. Totally average chick. Nothing special
you're lucky you've found each other in this life - keep up your possitive atittude towards gaming and enjoy every new release. greetings from Greece !
This video was a pure joy to watch. Great video and so wholesome :)
Crazy! When u pulled out South Park stick of truth. I’m actually playing this right now. Never played through it before. Somehow it’s eluded me the last 10 years. And it’s fantastic!
It is over the top fun!
It's Sunday Again!!! Thanks guys!
Best time of the week
Now let her play the trails games, she will love them… but they are so long
Agreed. She will eat these ones up for sure.
About that: ruclips.net/video/BZ2vN5HUXgY/видео.htmlsi=BcfZKTL09CQKCTnj
(Starts at 4:35)
Johnny please put the Christmas tree back up when you do videos on your own! It really gets me into the spirit. 🙂
been following the channel since 2010 its nice to see the growth
What a great episode! Thank you guys for all you do and making all of our Sundays that much better. There’s nothing better than listening to you guys talk RPG’s, in my opinion.
I love the different take and preferences that Kim brings to your channel!
I watched your videos sooo much years ago, but kind of forgot about it.
So happy that I randomly found it again!
Thank you for the fantastic content!
I love Kim's jacket omg, where does it even come from??? :D
Johnny bought it at a convention.
Its from persona 3 I have that jacket I got online through a website called M.RAGE Astral systems.
They are pricey tho. They have another p3 jacket that is also cool
You can get it online I have that same jacket.
M.rage persona collab
You guys rock. This video was all smiles for me. So much joy for video games and RPGs. Did you guys also play the first Ni No Kuni game?
Such a wholesome couple. Subscribed.

Thanks for the video Johnny! Kim is a bundle of joy!
Kim is the secret sauce!! And well said at the end there! So many adventures!! Not anytime wasted! Curious if you would like the strag RPGs like Unicorn Overlord, Triangle Strategy or Fire Emblem

Always love seeing Kim! I would LOVE Kim to try the Trails of Cold Steel series. I think she would love it as it’s kinda like Persona and the combat is so fun!
Dragon Quest is my favorite series, Kim has great taste in RPG’s. She clearly liked Final Fantasy IX, I loved that game because it finally returned to the fantasy setting. Hopefully the rumors of a remake are true.

Looking forward to this year's Xmas special 🎄

Love you guys ❤ been on a happy council gamer watching binge. so many years of great episodes 😮
I like Johnny, but Kim is also fantastic. Happy you guys choose to share some of your lives with us. Thank you both.
KIM IS A POWERHOUSE
- Johnny Millenium
I’m playing BG3 for the first time and remembering how high quality gaming feels. I have 363 hrs in it now already
Super cute video! I think two games Kim might like is also Snack World and Dragon Quest Monsters: The Dark Prince. Snack World is a dungeon crawler RPG with unique classes, and DQM is more of an open world, monster collecting RPG! I hope we can see her play more games on the channel soon 🤗
The 2 of you have this ability to brighten our days and we thank you. Game on, you 2, game on.
You both have a such a nice chemistry together
Ni no Kuni 1 and 2 are by far some of my fav games I’ve ever played! I’m with you Kim! The characters and story are what make it! The art style is amazing. There’s so much to do, and it’s so satisfying to complete it all!
Some RPGs I'm playing right now......
-Chained Echoes (literally Final Fantasy VI with more the mecha element, and I already love it)
-Skald: Against the Black Priory (amazing throwback to classic CRPGs like Ultima, and with the Commodore 64 aesthetic too)
-Dragon Quest XI (My favorite Dragon Quest game, especially for the amazing storytelling and world-building)
-Star Ocean: The Second Story R (amazing remake of an amazing action RPG on the PS1)
-Front Mission 3 (one of my favorite strategy RPGs for the PS1, plus it's literally Armored Core the RPG)
-Ring of Red (dieselpunk mecha with storytelling nowhere outta place in Gundam 0083, 'nuff said)
-Xenogears Perfect Works Build (literally my true GOTY 2024, mostly because of how they've handled the re-translation and quality of life stuff, and they're still working on this game even now)
Xeno PW Build, please do tell!!!!
I went into Dragon Quest Builders 2 because of this channel. It became one of my favorite games. Fantastic game play and what a surprisingly good story.
Such a great video you too❤. I would recommend both of you to play the Trails series especially the Cold Steel games😆
If only I could steal 1% of your happiness and excitement for life
I love DQ Builders 2 too. The "chucking up chunks" line Malroth says in the beginning still lives rent free in my head. 😆
Love the fact that you guys have an amazing gamer couple life. Congrats guys.
What a great video. Kim's input is the best!
this is such a great video
Dude! Grats on the SMT sponsor that's huge!
You guys are the best. Thanks for posting
I am so happy for you guys, you guys are so awesome to watch together. Question for Kim, you ever played the Harvest Moon series of games? I got my wife into them and she loves them. She loves the relaxing kinda of games. Great vids 😊
In my headcannon HCG always wears an undershirt beneath all his other clothes that says Kim's #1 fan
🤣
She needs to play more Trails/Kiseki for sure
This was a brilliant video for some one who is just about to get into the persona games it’s given me a great insight to the games I want to play thanks guys your the tops 👍👍👍
Kim is a treasure. She's really come into her own with the RPG genre. We love to see it!
Keep rocking Kim!
To your question:
Currently I'm playing Beyond Oasis and dabbling in Persona 3 Reload.
As always, have a good one Johnny!
Some of my favorite videos on this channel have been kim taking on these big RPGs. Keep it up Kim 👍
Love you two ❤. This was a great video.
I love you guys!!!! Thank you for countless hours of enjoyment. ❤
Nice both of you RPGs Sunday it’s a win
Wanted to thank you both for recommending Chrono trigger, just finished first playthrough last night on ds (I ordered snes version). It was really a special game
Over this year alone, I have platinum Atelier Ryza 1, Yakuza like a dragon, Persona 5 tactica, Fenix Immortal, Persona 3 Reload, Soul Hackers 2 and currently working through Metaphor.

You two are so sweet together, I'm sure I'm not alone when I say, We all look forward to your videos on Sundays
I love the passion you two share for rpgs. It's awesome!
Wow, this was such a fun video to watch, on so many levels. I have to go and jump back into Jrpgs now.
I've been loving the Voice of Cards Series. Only three games. Would be nice if they got released physically. Played on Switch. Kim may like it. Awesome narration, different feel, cool battle system.
FF 10 is one of my favorite games of all time! If she hasn't already, Kim should play it!
As always, Appreciate the content 🙏🏾
I love that she really dove into his hobby when they met, and then it really began a hobby of hers. In the end way me and my girl have shared out love of games and hobbies with each other
Love you guys together ❤
Kim makes this show "ultra happy 😊"
Love you guys! I’m playing MetAphoR and loving it!!
Love your picks in games! As I enjoyed watching both of you
The secret sauce is essential
Please get Kim on the Tales of Series!! I think she’d love them! Loved this video for sure. I’m currently playing Tales of Vesperia and it’s a gem.
I love RPGs, I'm always glad seeing other people talk about them and how they enjoy them as well
Those photos are such an amazing idea! Ten out of ten 🎉
Great video guys!
I’m playing “Dragon Quest 3 HD-2D Remake” and it is highly recommended by myself and jrpg fans everywhere. After that, I have “Visions of Mana” still to play, not to mention all the Pixel Remasters that just released on Xbox.
Sooo many rpgs to play it’s nuts right now lol
Family effort! Incorporating your family really is a win win both for you all as well as the channel.
Pure joy. Thanks for sharing!
Great episode! Love the shotgun style
