    This channel made me finally buy a switch lite and it's probably the best purchase I've made in years. Soooo many games in my pocket and while laying in bed😂. Witcher 3. Borderlands 3. Dragons Q11s. Astral chain. Sea of stars. Persona. And many many more. I've been mostly buying digital but im trying to build my cart collection up seeing as literally every old nintendo systems games thatvare out of print are worth soooo much more than their original retail.

    Severed Steel looks really cool, and Record of the Lodoss War I keep hearing nothing but great things about. I need to check both of these out! Really cool seeing the varied picks here, some of which I never heard of! Great video man!

    After seeing a few games I know like "Haiku the Robot", "Severed Steel" and "Record of Lodoss War", I recognised one indie fighting game which title's "Blade Stangers".
    Aww, I remember I bought that game on Steam Sale a few years ago, but I didn't have time to try out. After hearing a lot of good features of this game, I should try out when I can have freetime. I played Street Fighter, Killing Instinct and Tekken games long time ago and I could enjoy Blade Strangers too. 🙂

    I'm a huge Lodoss War fan, so unsurprisingly I loved Wonder Labyrinth. I had a lot of fun with Fairy Fencer F too. I haven't played the sequel yet, but I'm not a huge fan of tactics RPGs. I think the last one I really liked was Arc The Lad, so it's been a while!

    @ShinSHOGO 11 месяцев назад +16

    Surprised you went with Wonder Labyrinth as opposed to Team Ladybug’s other Metroidvania - Touhou Luna Nights.
    It’s very similar in visual style and gameplay, but ultimately feels a lot more well put together, more fair in the difficulty, and has a very even pace overall.
    Plus it’s wonderful soundtrack that always is a delight to hear, both in the main areas, as well as the boss fights. ❤

    • @knightsabre2k
      @knightsabre2k 11 месяцев назад +1

      I would actually argue that Wonder Labyrinth had smoother progression and a much better difficulty curve, tho Luna Nights had more flexible abilities to play around with. Overall though, I prefer Wonder Labyrinth, mostly because it didn't add a completely BS final boss like they did with Reimu in Luna Nights... damn that boss annoyed the hell out of me

    definitely enjoyed Deedlit when I tried it on game pass ( though the difficulty was a tad high for me & I had to give up on it ), and I have Jack Move on my Xbox wishlist. That Haiku the Robot looks pretty cool too...
    maybe a future part could include some personal favorites of mine...The Stretchers, Good Job, Part Time UFO and Boxboy + Boxgirl. I never see anyone talk about those gems!

    I never got into luminous Avenger because of a fairly shallow reason, I absolutely loathe Copen as a character. When they introduced him in gunvolt 2, I could actually feel all the fun in the game get sucked out by his mere presence so the idea of having to play a whole game as him was about as appealing to me as jumping bare foot onto some lego pieces.
    Luckily, Inti Creates gave us Gunvolt 3 and that was absolutely wonderful and incredibly brave since they ditched the titular character and completely revamped the gameplay mechanics. Best thing tho? No Copen!!

    What stinks is that I would enjoy Metroivanias more if they were selectable stages rather than one continuous map. I.e. like Mega Man X or Demon's Crest. I like platforming, fighting stuff, bosses, and new powers. I don't like tapping and hugging every wall for a "secret."

    I always appreciate obscure fighting games with a cast of obscure characters. Now, Blade Stranger's characters are not obscure per see, like Shovel Knight, Quote, and Curly Brace, but they are also not characters you'd immediately think of for a fighting game, nor characters you would normally SEE in a fighting game. Quote was a cool inclusion, but the selling point for me was no doubt Umihara Kawase from the fishing pole platform series of the same name. I love those games and how they give you Tetris syndrome with their sometimes infuriating platform challenges.
    As for other obscure fighting games, did you know that the anime character Shana from "Shakugan no Shana" appeared in the Japanese only PS3 game Dengeki Bunko: Fighting Climax?
