Finished Mafia: Definitive Edition !
I didn’t mention it last week but I started Mafia after dropping Returnal, was about halfway through already, finished the rest this week.
The game doesn’t get great reviews but I loved the game. The story was interesting, even though the ending felt kinda sudden, and the game didn’t have any useless bloat. The visuals also felt good, though I am not really a good judge of these things. The shooting controls feel a bit dated, but nothing too bad and you can get used to it easily.
This has actually make me look forward to Mafia: The Old Country, as they have supposedly gone back to their roots. I’ll highly recommend this to anyone who likes linear 3D narrative games.
Started Ys IX: Monstrum Nox on PS5. Switch is generally my preferred platform for all RPGs but all reviews recommend to play it on another platform, if you have access to it. So I went with PS5 version.
Not much to say about it yet, I am in Chapter 3 and thoroughly enjoying the gameplay. This will be my primary game for now, but since I am trying to spend time more productively, will probably be playing it for quite a while.
Playing Garage (Garage: Bad Trip on other platforms) on Switch.
It’s a top-down action game like Hotline Miami, but with Zombies. The games isn’t as good, and has multiple difficulty spikes, specially when people with guns show up, but still a fun game and scratching that itch.
I am a few hours in, and shouldn’t have too much game left.
What about all of you? What have you been playing and/or plan to play?
Still working through Shin Megami V Vengeance!
Finished the second main area, out of 4, I presume. By now the story has established the new group of antagonists and gave more screen time to the previously underused cast. There are enough new demons that I can barely keep up with fusing them all! But I always feel to need to collected them all in SMT/Persona. (Funnily enough, I never did in Pkmn.)
Finished the first route of AI: The somnium files!
Got Ota’s ending, which didn’t actually solve the case. Luckily, the game tells you about each branching path and you can freely jump to them.
The humor is hit or miss, but it did land with me and my partner. The mystery is fun and the characters are all around fun, too. We’ll do the other routes and then jump right into the sequel!
Al: The Somnium Files was much better than I expected. 3rd one is coming out soon so will probably play they sequel soon-ish too.
Edit: So the third game has been out for a while now, the release trailer I just saw was for PS and Xbox release.
