A list of every JRPG coming out/potentially coming out for 2020 that I could find
Hello y'all. I was looking up the jrpg releases for 2020 last week and holy hell this year is a juggernaut for jrpgs. I have compiled a list with dates of release or TBA, a video link, and a brief description of what they are if I know anything about the game. Given how long this will be, I'm not going to be editing it for grammar so apologies in advance. Now, let's get on with this shall we. January: Well, we are already mid way thru Jan and a few titles have already dropped but lets just list them out right now.
Super Robot War X (Jan. 10) (Switch/PC) (SRPG). Visually its not very impressive but the series has always had solid gameplay, not inferior to FE imo on that particular aspect. Its basically a gundam mashup, tho this one has lelouch and guren lagunn in it as well. Basically its what happens if all those gundams and gundam pilots from all those gundam animes got put into one game with some original characters and a original story. And somehow, the series have always made it work. I haven;t played this one yet, but from previous experience you dont really need to know the original anime of these characters and the series can be played standalone with each game as its own.
Original Gematsu JP announcement trailer from 2 years ago: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TlW-hAwJ9ZE 2) Atelier Dust Trilogy (PC/Switch/PS4). So this one doesn't require much explanation. It's atelier dusk. It's already out I believe. Some people would argue that it is the best or second best trilogy of the series. Cute characters doing cute stuff. Pretty intense time/resource simulator if you are trying to go above and beyond but if you just want to do as much as you need/want and pass the game then it can be a casual but enjoyable experience. Light hearted story as all ateliers are mostly (cough cough iris), tho this trilogy does have a slightly gloomier setting/story. Nice place to start if you are new to the series. Trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V9hWacAkAAA 3) Orangeblood (PC) (Jan.14). So this is a game that almost no one has heard about lol. Seems like a japanese INDIE. Retro styled turn base. Seems really interesting. I've tried looking up the devs grayfax software but I haven't really found anything substantial. It seems like this might actually be a one man job or at least that of a very small team tho I can't be sure. Trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MNhaaJgPCD8 4) Ephemeral Tale (Jan. 14) (EARLY ACCESS). Honestly, I know nothing about this one. Its a retro style turn base game for sure, but it's just entered early access so who knows how it will turn out. Steam Page: https://store.steampowered.com/app/1204320/Ephemeral_Tale/ 5) Wizardry: Labyrinth of Lost Souls (PC) (Jan 15). This is a straight up dungeon crawler, the classic kind. Nothing groundbreaking but if you want a classic styled relatively difficult dungeon crawler this may be for you. Developed by Acquire and localized by Xseed. Funny enough, gamespot had a review which said that this game lacked an automap feature. They were wrong lol. That being said, it needs to be unlocked first. The process can require some effort so I can see how they may have missed it if they were just rushing thru it for a review. Thus, some pen and paper may be necessary. Like I said, this is of that old school design choice. Just one word of advice, make sure you pay attention where you are going, its super easy to get turned around in this game. Gameplay: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G5xKt_M8zGQ 6) The Alliance Alive HD Remaster (PC) (Jan 16). This is honestly a good game. It started out as a 3ds title and it definitely shows in the visuals. The super oversimplified version of the story is, the world is fucked, lets try and fix it. I know, I know, but honestly its a good story, with good characters. The battle system is interesting. Rather than focusing on getting levels for the characters, you get levels for your skills, and some skills are tied to your weapon usage. There's other stuff too like awakening talents. You basically have to do character building manually. It can be a bit jarring at first and the game can get difficult in the 2nd half but if you put in the time to learn the system there can be a lot of fun to be had. Gameplay: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZSx2nEKCrQE 7) Tokyo Mirage Session FE Encore. (Switch) (Jan 17). I don't know much about this game except its a FE x SMT with a slice of persona? Honestly, you are better off asking some other redditor than me, but I do plan on getting it cause from what I've been told the gameplay is actually good and the story is satisfactory. 8) Utwarerumono Trilogy (Jan 23 and TBA) (PC): This is a very, very dialogue heavy series. Did I mention it was very dialogue heavy? Its basically a visual novel, but every chapter ends on a srpg combat map. There's also free battles. The battles aren't really that hard, and you can always grind it out on the free maps but my experience is that in the hard maps you can definitely strategize it. It's definitely a story focused, story first type of game. It has a interconnected story, politics, romance, war, some really interesting mix of fantasy and a little bit of scifi. Utawarerumono, mask of deception, and mask of truth will be ported to PC on Jan. 23, tho they have already been available in the west on ps4 for a couple of years. the two games are direct sequels of each other. Deception moves at a fairly slow pace, with a lot more slice of life moments than truth. It definitely has its high pace moments, but for the most part the game establishes the characters and the empire which the game takes place in. Truth, the sequel, builds off the set up from the first game, and goes full force. It also has more combat maps than deception, if memory serves. Is it anime as fuck, hell yeah. Is it epic as hell if you like anime and are okay with a slow paced, slice of life set up? hell yeah. Now, this a trilogy, and the two mask games are actually the 2nd and 3rd games. The first game will be releasing in the west for the first time in a remake called the Utawarerumono: Prelude to the fallen. It has a mid 2000 anime adaptation as well, if anyone's interested. This will be released for ps4 and pc. The release date is TBA but it's likely to be in early to mid 2020. There is also a full fan made eng patch for the original on pc. Prelude to the fallen happens in a different kingdom, under a different protagonist. But in game timeline wise it is contemporary to the mask games, and there is a direct relation to them. You can play the two mask w/o doing to prelude, there's no issue with that if you just want the two mask game's MC's story. Despite the amount of cute girls in the game its actually not a harem lol. You have a main female interest, and other female characters get matched off with with other male characters. Whether that's good or bad will depend on your tastes lol. Personally, I love the chemistry in the relationships whether they be friends or lovers. Mask of Deception: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1tv8qY9wAI8 9) Arc of Alchemist (Jan 30) (PS4/Switch). I don't know how I feel about this game. It sounds like it could be interesting, but that gameplay has me hesitant. Its a post apocalyptic setting, action jrpg. The western release is a expanded version with a bunch of new playable characters, a better UI, and more stuff in your base camp. I think those are there to help you get exp faster? Its not exactly something I'm hyped about but who knows, it might have a unique charm that you have to play to feel for certain people. I'm keeping my eyes on it, maybe during a sale. Gameplay: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=auFS1zz1bWQ Well, that's it for January. Now, the next few months don't have a lot of confirmed releases, so we'll get thru them pretty quickly. After that tho, we will get to the TBA category, which is going to be a LOT of titles. Some of them are more than likely to release in 2020, some are mere rumors, and others, nothing more than a glimmer of hope (cough cough SMT V), but I've included them regardless. February
The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance Tactics (Feb 4th) (PS4/Xbox One/Switch/PC). Some of you might remember this as that random srpg reveal in e3 2019. Well, we got a release date. The jury is still out on this one. It could be a solid srpg or it could just be a cheap imitation of a storied genre. I didn't find much detail on it overall.
E3 2019 trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qx48r-xqVg4 2) Yakuza Remastered Collection (Feb 11) (PS4). Yes, I know. Me putting this here is asking for a jrpg genre debate once more. That being said, I'm trying to be inclusive as possible and I've seen people on this thread arguing that yakuza series are all jrpgs. This brings yakuza 3-5 remastered to the ps4, with all the cut content that were not available for the original ps3 releases in the west. They are not full remakes tho, so the games definitely show their age compared to the kiwami stuff. Yakuza: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p6lT28S9zM8&t=9s 3) Kingdom hearts 3 DLC (Jan for ps4 and feb for xbox). Well, here we are again. From what i've read its more of a full expansion than a dlc. 13 bosses, a full story that occurs sometime before the final battle? extra episodes and some UI adjustments? also more difficulty mods? and new playable characters. Apparently kairi will be playable at least. March
Pokemon Mystery Dungeon (Switch) (March 6). Its pokemon.
Trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nh9lNsUB4yY 2) Langrisser I & II (ps4/switch/pc). (March 10). Oh I'm hyped for this. I think this will be the first time langrisser 1 is getting a western release too. There was a fan patch attempt that never fully materialized. You can switch between the older and new artstyle. Trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ahzjI9NeLTc 3) Nioh 2 (ps4) (March 14). It's Nioh. With character creation, and a few more gameplay additions. There was a demo. Its not open anymore but here's some footage. demo clip: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-A13OHXzK38 4) Fairy Tail (PC/PS4/Switch) (March 19-20). Honestly, for an anime game, this looks like it has actual effort put into it. It actually looks good. Shudders in tokyo ghoul tie in game, oh the horror. Any way, it seems to start at around the time skip in the original story, and has a few arcs from the anime plus an original story. Trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y9TpEohmt7E 5) Persona 5 royale (March 31). Self explanatory. April
FF7 remake - Self explanatory
Trials of Mana (PC/PS4/Switch) (April 24) - i think this is also another case of an old game being localized for the first time. I quite like what i saw from the trailer. Seems like a good action jrpg.
Sword Art Online: Alicilization lycoris (May 22) (ps4/xbox one/switch/pc): All your waifus belong to me - kirito 2020. But honestly, again, the trailer actually looks kinda good. I am so on the fence for this. I didnt like hollow delux and fatal bullet but i had some mindless fun with holy song or whatever that one's called. I'm going to wait for a deep, deep steam sale, a few years from now.
trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YJR_FJk1twc TBA - I'm just going to do a list here, definitely missed some titles, but the major projects in dev should be on here. Phantasy star online 2, Cold steel 3 switch and likely pc port, Cold steel 4 (ha i wish lol), SMT V (one should not lose hope after all), Sakura Wars, Azure lane Crosswave, rune factory 4 special, crystal chronicles remaster, banner of the maid, bravely default II, Cris Tales, CrossCode port to the consoles, Digimon Survive, Genshin Impact (not sure if this counts as a jrpg), is it wrong to pick up a girl in a dungeon - infinite combate, some more KH and yakuza ports to the xbone, tales of arise, tales of crestoria (mobile), xenoblade chronicle definitive edition, gran blue fantasy relink, rune factory 5, Unsung story (could be a sleeper hit or a mess, started by the creator of ff tactics and vagrant story, but it seemed to have had development issues), edge of eternity (an indie in early access but has constant updates and improves and have decent to good reviews in their later builds). Edit: Utawarerumono Prelude to the fallen is for PS4, PC and vita, not yet ps5 Edit: Yakuza 7 TBA
2018 report 2017 report Despite the solid number, this was a bit of a mixed year. Free/nominal fees for subscription services meant I spent a fair bit of time on games which were not on my backlog (albeit most were on my wishlist, so I can treat them as a preemptive elimination!). I also had a few timesinks which I regularly went back to as I found many new games to be unsatisfying.
1) The Outer Worlds 2) State of Decay 2 3) Warhammer 40,000 – Space Wolf 4) Purrfect Date 5) Tom Clancy’s The Division
Thoughts on each game
The Lion’s Song Quite an interesting little game. It manages to link stories about music, painting, mathematics and war in a clever and engrossing way. The choices are genuinely impactful and make for tough decisions at times. AER: Memories of Old A short game, but quite relaxing and pretty – especially in the flight sections. I had no interest in the story, but the relatively gentle puzzles and enjoyable flights made it worthwhile. Mad Max Much like Mafia III, this is a 10-hour game elongated into a 30+ hour game by copy-pasting tasks. While in theory most tasks are optional, the slow progress and gating of upgrades essentially requires completion of much of them. This becomes a grind, and the gameplay isn’t quite enough to keep it interesting. Quantum Break A mediocre story and a mediocre shooter, yet somehow more than the sum of its parts. Maybe I’m just nostalgic for the days of FMV integration in games, but this wound up being quite entertaining. Hitman – season 1 My first and only other Hitman game is Absolution, which apparently was a departure for the series. That leaves me in the position of finding this return to normality for the series as rather jarring. I prefer the linear and tighter nature of Absolution – since I don’t care enough to go back and complete them in different ways, it felt like a bit of a thin and shallow experience with a threadbare story. Grim Fandango Remastered I’m dreadful at P&C puzzle games, and quickly realised I wasn’t going to get far without a guide. As such, I cheated my way through most of it and just played it for the writing. Thankfully, the writing is so good that it was still fun. I wasn’t keen on Full Throttle, which I played last year, but this was amusing throughout. The Deadly Tower of Monsters A fun concept – a B-movie spoof – combined with surprisingly forgiving platforming mechanics. I’m not a fan of platformers generally, but the frustration-alleviating features and general sense of humour in the game made for a good experience. Overfall Solid roguelike tactical combat, marred by some sloppy writing [I don’t think English is the first language of the writers, but at least a spell-check would have helped], a wonky interface [pertinent information like resistances is obscured] and a strangely harsh unlock system. Not a bad game by any means, but could have been better with a bit more care. Rock of Ages 2 Bizarre concept, even more bizarre writing, but entertainingly so. It’s surprisingly good-looking and quite fun, but five hours was quite enough for me. Battlefield 1 I haven’t played a Battlefield game since Vietnam, so this took a bit of adjusting. The campaign is very well presented and offers a nice bit of variety, but it’s over so fast. I had no interest in multiplayer, so this made for a brief, if fun, experience. Soul Gambler A very brief visual novel, but at least it had distinct story paths. The writing was decent, if a bit awkward. My main gripe was that you had to individually click through each line on subsequent playthroughs, which is something many visual novels these days manage to avoid. Stikbold A rather strange dodgeball game. I didn’t find the strangeness nearly as amusing as Rock of Ages 2, but it was a moderately entertaining experience with a bit of variety through the different settings and objectives. Cultist Simulator I’m a bit mixed on this. On one hand, it had a surprising amount of content and complexity to it. On the other, it drastically inflated the complexity by veiling basic gameplay aspects. That could mean a lot of wasted time – or worse, inadvertently wrecking a multi-hour playthrough - because it wasn’t clear what you should be doing next. Walkthroughs and guides were essential. While there’s merit to a game which rewards experimentation and discovery of mechanics, there is a point at which it’s just too obtuse, and at times the game did go a bit too far in that respect. Ziggurat A quite clever blend of roguelike and FPS. I’m not much of a fan of the latter, but the gameplay was fun and the roguelike elements softened the blow of failure. Tyranny I disliked Pillars of Eternity and went into this with some trepidation. Fortunately, it was a more enjoyable and accessible experience. Where Pillars just threw a mindnumbing amount of lore at me, this offered a relatively comprehensible story doled out in appropriate chunks. While it did have some of Pillars’ mechanical issues, like poor pathfinding in combat, they did not seem nearly as bad (perhaps due to the smaller scale of battles). The base management stuff seemed tacked on, confusing and wholly unnecessary. It was far from my favourite RPG, but solid enough – and didn’t overstay its welcome. Orwell: Ignorance is Strength I enjoyed the first Orwell game and initially found this a similarly good experience. The few changes were worthwhile ones, and the story seemed to be building up well. Then it suddenly ended. Surely I done something wrong and met an early endgame? Nope, that was it – a mere few hours of gameplay, with an ending so abrupt that I had no idea it was one until the credits rolled. There are different endings, requiring additional playthroughs, but after that disappointment I wasn’t interested in going back to it. Tesla Effect: A Tex Murphy Adventure This was my first game in the series, and I found it enjoyable. I only had to cheat a few times (which is remarkably good by my standards!) and the cheesiness of it was all rather endearing. The sequel is now on my wishlist (though it seems to be a fair way off). Train Valley A decent puzzle/strategy game, which quickly escalates from rather placid to chaotic. The simple concept still requires a fair bit of thought to succeed, and while I bumbled through somewhat, it was fun. Rakuen Beautiful. One of my favourite games, evoking the spirit of To the Moon by dealing with weighty topics in a whimsical manner. Wonderful soundtrack and great design. Dangerous Golf I enjoyed this more than I’d expected. It’s all a bit messy, as one would expect from a heavily physics-based game, and almost throws in too many variations, but it is fairly satisfying. In some levels it’s all too easy to get a platinum medal through sheer luck, but in other levels it takes a fair bit of skill and thought to get a good score, which is rather more satisfying. Mutant Year Zero This was frustrating. It has the ingredients for a solid game – great presentation, imaginative world, decent writing and voice acting and the core of a solid tactics game. The problem is that it is structured essentially like a puzzle game. The odds are so intensely stacked against you in a group battle that you must pick off enemies one by one. This makes for a slow and tedious process, especially when combined with the impact of RNG and the unsatisfying ending. Dishonoured 2 I felt a little let down by this. Presentation was good, story was fine, but the powers were mostly unengaging and the combat was frustrating. The combat issues were partly my fault in that I tried a non-lethal run, but while there were a few more non-lethal options, I would have loved an option to just punch someone in the face rather than having to stand around waiting to parry in order to launch a non-lethal attack. Finding Paradise This had a lot to live up to – To the Moon and A Bird Story are among my favourite games – but once again Kan Gao delivered. Touching, funny, surprising and engrossing. The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt – GotY Edition I went into this with a bit of trepidation, having strongly disliked the first two games in the series. While I am a big fan of the books, the gameplay never clicked with me. This was an improvement to some degree, but I still found the combat in particular frustrating and relatively shallow. I wound up just playing it as a story, and it delivered in that respect – even many of the side quests were more memorable than the main storylines of a lot of other RPGs I’ve played. While I certainly won’t be joining the “Praise Geraldo” crew, I at least had a better experience than I did with the other games in the series. SteamWorld Dig 2 I loved the first game. This was certainly enjoyable but did not reach quite the same heights; perhaps through lack of ambition if nothing else. Solid enough, but lacking the impact of its predecessor. Batman: Arkham Knight This felt like the weakest of the three main Arkham games (I didn’t like Origins much at all, but that is somewhat separate). The combat, setting and presentation were all as interesting as ever, and the story got genuinely interesting towards the end, but the damned car seemed to drag down everything it was involved in. From puzzles to battles, it always felt a bit wonky to me – a particularly sharp contrast to the famously smooth and refined movement and combat the series is known for. Unlike Asylum and City, I didn’t complete the Riddler challenges. This was primarily due to the car, which I was thoroughly sick of by the end. Perhaps I was rendered a bit grumpier than usual by that, but I also found the Rocksteady tendency to lead the player by the nose at some points, and then leave things utterly oblique at other times, to be particularly grating. West of Loathing Genuinely funny at times, and I loved the art style, but it did drag on a little. The Flame in the Flood Quite an atmospheric and appealing game. The presentation is gorgeous, albeit marred by irritating pop-in even on a GTX 1080. The gameplay is pretty easy to pick up, and while it can be frustrating in the way that a survival game with randomisation inevitably can be (and why the hell can’t I boil water to remove the bugs?!), the checkpoint system is generous enough to ameliorate this. Monster Prom I am not usually one for VNs, but this is great. Entertaining characters, often hilarious (and oh so wrong) writing and easy enough to play through in 15 minutes (it says the short game is 30 minutes, but it doesn't take me anywhere near that). There is plenty of content, some of which is unlockable, meaning there is substantial replayability. Yakuza 0 The first in the series for me, and quite enjoyable. It was funny at times, though the main plot did cause me to drift off towards the end – I wound up doing crosswords during some of the interminable cutscenes. The combat got a bit repetitive, but it was easy enough to get the hang of. I didn’t enjoy it enough to get stuck into the numerous side activities, but the main game was decent enough. Dominique Pamplemousse This is a curious game. It is brief (barely an hour long) and linear. The puzzles are simple. Much of the dialogue is sung, for no apparent reason - and not particularly well. The art style has been described as "claymation noire"; there's little er..."mation", and it all looks a bit muddy. Writing is fine. I chuckled at a few bits, but it's hardly memorable.For all that, I quite liked it. It's original and there's heart to it. In a sea of lazy asset flips, generic AAA games with no respect for your time and visionless projects, here's an example of people actually daring to have a go with a unique vision. South Park: The Fractured But Whole Not nearly as well-written as its predecessor, but with significantly better combat. The badge progression system was clumsy, and at one point I was left with a stack of grinding to do. Generally a solid experience, though. Hellblade: Senua’s Sacrifice Wonderful presentation, with some of the best voice acting I’ve heard in games. The gameplay itself was decent. Combat was a little too simple, and puzzles could be frustrating at times, but it’s really all about the experience. Pizza Express I feel a little silly having spent a lot of money on a gaming rig when I use it to play stuff that looks like something out of the early ‘90s. Nonetheless, this was good fun – amusing story, addictive gameplay and a surprising amount of content. Yoku’s Island Express Cutely presented and an interesting concept. It can be infuriating at times, requiring a degree of precision which is perhaps best not associated with pinball, and getting around can be a bit confusing. Overall, though, it’s quite fun. The Darkside Detective A pretty simple point & click adventure (aside from one strangely hard instalment), broken into small episodes to make it easy to get through a portion at a time. Nothing exceptional, but a decent way to spend a few hours. Tales of Berseria A surprisingly engrossing tale. It's frequently funny and features likeable characters. The voice acting is excellent - it's a tour de force for Cristina Valenzuela in particular. That helps mitigate a convoluted combat system. It was still throwing tutorials at me after 15 hours; I wound up ignoring them and button mashing, which seemed to work fine on Normal difficulty anyway. Performance is rock solid. Smooth FPS, fast loading and limited pop-in. I have never played a Tales game before, and may not play another one, but it doesn't take a love for the series to enjoy this game. Perhaps the group best warned to stay away are achievement hunters - some of them seem to take a heck of a lot of work. The Outer Worlds Disappointing. The simplistic combat not only makes that portion of the game dull, but also weakens the RPG aspects since you can pour all your upgrade points into speech skills, making those challenges a breeze. The writing is one-note (everyone is quirky, snarky or both), the choices are binary and rarely provoke thought (indeed, the hardest choice was one of the very first) and the characters aren't particularly interesting - nor are they given much chance to be in their shallow quests. It also performed poorly on a decent rig - though that's to be expected from Obsidian. Agents of Mayhem It's...not that bad. Sure, it's flawed - repetitive quests, buggy at times and nowhere near the level of Saints Row's writing - but it has an enjoyably distinct set of characters (sadly enough, the character missions were more interesting than those of Outer Worlds) and the combat is enjoyably free-flowing. PixelJunk Nom Nom Galaxy I liked the idea of discovering ingredients and turning them into various products, but it quickly became centred around ever more complex process designs which were of no interest to me. Action Henk A fun runner; gorgeously presented. I sucked at it though! Shantae and the Pirate’s Curse Presented in an enjoyably light-hearted manner, but it felt like it was dragging on even after four hours. Castlevania: Lords of Shadow Ultimate Edition I was quite excited to play this, since it featured three of my favourite actors – Patrick Stewart, Robert Carlyle and Jason Isaacs. That’s the only reason I managed to last five hours. I hated pretty much everything about it; the shoddy fixed camera, the tedious fighting, the cringeworthy writing… The sad thing is that I bought another two games in the series. Sheltered A solid little survival management game. I didn’t enjoy it nearly as much as Zafehouse Diaries or Dead State, mainly because the RNG was a bit too impactful. It’s far too common for a game to simply be unwinnable due to a lack of rain and/or the distribution of resources in nearby locations. When things are fairer (or the difficulty is lowered) it becomes quite a grind – with no real winning condition and little in the way of variety (there are a few shallow quests of minimal value or interest) tedium ensues. Civilization VI Quite liked the new mechanics and enjoyed playing as Australia (though Walzing Matilda is so distinctive that it gets a bit grating). Having spent many hours in its predecessors though, there was nothing particularly groundbreaking which compelled me to play more than a few games. Porno Studio Tycoon I’ll give pretty much any management game a go! Unfortunately, things weren’t particularly well explained and while there seemed to be a bit of depth, a lot of it was blocked off (to add to the confusion, the tutorial focused on mechanics which were blocked off for much of the early game). Aarklash: Legacy I normally like tactical games, but this was just too unforgiving and there was no ability to grind to reduce the difficulty. Intergalactic Bubbles It’s basically Bubble Bobble, which is fine. It’s quite nicely presented. The problem is that each level is meant to be completed in a certain number of moves, but since the bubble colours are randomly generated, it’s mostly down to luck – you might be able to wipe out half the bubbles on your first move, or might struggle to get any matches at all. Tom Clancy’s The Division I got fairly close to the end of this game but was just so fed up with it that I couldn’t push myself to get through it. The story was forgettable, the shooting mechanics were mediocre, all the extraneous gameplay elements were just an annoyance and I felt the game was balanced against me as a solo player (only twice did I find a co-op partner, and both of them screamed in Korean throughout). It looked impressive, at least. Kingdom: New Lands Edition I really thought I’d like this game, and had it on my wishlist from release. I love management games, and have no issue with passive management. It also looked gorgeous; this is one of the best-looking pixel-art games I’ve played. Unfortunately, it did not click at all. The AI was not bright, which is inevitably a source of a lot of frustration in a passive management game. Further, the gameplay was just dull. I felt like I was running back and forth endlessly for little reward – pretty though it may have been, I found myself wishing for a button to speed up time. The positive reviews suggest it is a relaxing and chill game – I just found myself frustrated with the AI and bored by the gameplay. Halcyon 6: Lightspeed Edition For some reason I thought this was more of a starbase management sim rather than a tactical space battle sim. The starbase elements are there, but they are pretty thin. Most of the game is about the tactical space battles, which were interesting and varied enough early on, but after nine hours and no end in sight I was sick of them. FIFA 18 I haven’t played a FIFA game since ’98, so it was interesting to give this a go. The story mode was okay – quite well presented, but the player rating system was infuriating at times (the out-of-position penalties in particular). I did find that there was a huge gap in the difficulty settings – one was ludicrously easy (insultingly so; the AI kept missing from close range), but the next was a bit too steep for someone essentially new to the series. An option between the two would have been nice, or at least an easier difficulty which at least tried to mask how easy it was making things! I also tried management mode, but having been used to Football Manager’s detail I was not able to get into this. Seven: The Days Long Gone This was a frustrating experience. I really liked the concept of an isometric thief RPG, and did my best to give it a fair chance. It had its positive aspects; freedom of movement, decent voice acting and reasonable graphics. However, the freedom of movement also worked against it; confrontations with enemies often spiralled into circular chases suited to Benny Hill music and I lost count of the number of times I plunged to an untimely death through a misstep. Moreover, it didn’t really work to its premise. The game started with a tutorial centred around a stealthy heist, which seemed to be the central premise of the game. The next time I encountered a situation close to that was six hours later. Age of Wonders 3 I loved Shadow Magic many years ago but struggled to get into this. Maps seemed to take an inordinately long time to the point that armies were monstrously large and there was no research left. Maybe I was too defensive, but the AI was very passive. The Dweller A decent little puzzle game with minimal assets. Out of the Park Baseball 19 A slight improvement on its predecessor. The main addition was an online card-game mode, but I’m not sure that works well in a management game. My squad was rapidly full of high-end talent and I felt no real connection to the team. Niche: A Genetics Survival Game Nice concept, but a rather wobbly execution. The genetics aspect tended to be lost due to the fast paced and tough nature of the game; the focus was so much on just keeping any creature alive that genetics didn’t come into my thinking. Apparently the best strategy is to sit on the first island for ages and build up a tribe, but the tutorial didn’t make that clear at all. Royal Heroes A grindy and buggy mobile game. Endless Space 2 – Digital Deluxe Edition I thought I was falling out of love with the space 4X genre, having been very disappointed with the last few I placed – particularly Stellaris – but this hit the mark. The alien races are distinct, making for significantly different gameplay. The gameplay itself is always interesting; unlike Stellaris, it doesn’t hit a dead patch mid-game. I found the combat a little frustrating – seemingly even contests would often have completely one-sided results for no apparent reason – but aside from that it was a solid game. Monster Slayers An enjoyable little rogue-lite deck builder. While I normally prefer a bit more flexibility in deck building, tying cards to characters meant that each one had a distinctive feel which gave the game plenty of replayability. Dark Train This sounded interesting in concept, but was way too oblique for me. State of Decay 2 This seemed like the perfect game for me – I love survival management and settlement building. Unfortunately, it wound up feeling rather like a shallow MMO – trite dialogue, grindy tasks and no real sense of purpose or direction. I just found myself engaging in long, dull runs between locations, engaging in the same shoddy combat over and over again. The Banner Saga 3 I played the first two games in the series to completion and seem to recall enjoying them, but something about this did not click at all. I had zero interest in the story – the time between instalments has dulled my memory of it – and the gameplay just felt so flat. I’m not really sure what changed between playing the last two games and now, but I had no motivation to keep playing. Gremlins, Inc A reasonably enjoyable but forgettable board game. Warhammer 40,000 – Space Wolf This is a game plagued by odd design choices. It has turn-based combat (which I love), but it is deprived of so much of its strategy by the way it is designed. Enemies appear at arbitrary moments from arbitrary locations (including amid your troops) without warning or logic, meaning that success requires either a degree of fortune or grinding missions to know when and where enemies will appear. Perhaps this is to compensate for the weak AI, which is prone to boneheaded acts, but it just makes things irritating and dull. It also has a card collecting and deck building mechanic (again, which I love). The distribution of cards, however, is bizarre – completing tasks in missions (which can take 30+ minutes each) will give a couple of low-level cards. In contrast, activating one of numerous codes from the forums provides a pile of high-level cards. “Legendary” cards are so readily available in this form that a deck can be filled with them with a few minutes’ effort. There is a clumsy system for upgrading each card, none of which is explained in the shallow tutorial. There is also an upgrade path for your squadmates – again poorly explained – which is reliant on grinding missions. They don't use your custom decks, so while you're flooded with Elite and Legendary cards for the leader, you have to grind just to eke out a few more Uncommons for the rest of your squad. There's really nothing else to recommend the game. Graphics and sound are serviceable and the story is barely there. It just feels like yet another Warhammer game pushed out for the sake of it. Warhammer 40,000 – Dawn of War II Another disappointing Warhammer game. Again this had things I liked – a strategic layer with character progression, equippable loot, choice of missions and ebb and flow of the wider battle. However, I found this constrained by the limits placed on that strategy, with constant time pressure funnelling me into the key missions . I’m not sure how much that time pressure would have impacted on the outcome – would doing side missions result in overall failure – as it was never properly explained. Moreover, I found the RTS gameplay really quite dull and repetitive, such that I didn’t feel compelled to continue. Road Redemption Incredibly dumb – horrible dialogue, clumsy gameplay (trying to aim guns while riding was a nightmare) and buggy (the one round which I won was as a result of a bug which caused me to be invincible for most of it), but it did have some entertainment value. Moonlighter Having spent 125 hours in Recettear, it's fair to say I am very much open to the burgeoning shopkeeper-by-day/dungeon-crawler-by-night genre. Unfortunately, this fell flat. Even after a relatively short period it became a dull grind. Much of that is due to a distinct lack of charm; it looks nice in screenshots, but lacks any real character or presence in game. The absence of any decent writing is another problem; what there was of the story didn't interest me in the slightest. In contrast to a game like Recettear, filled with charm and heart, this was utterly bland. Add in the clumsy storage system, shallow shopkeeping, sluggish combat and irritatingly repetitive music, and seven hours was more than enough for me. Shelter Was rather surprised to dislike this. I found myself getting lost far too easily, which given that it was a very linear game meant a lot of frustration. The visual presentation was grating and confusing. Mainlining Moderately interesting hacking game, but too shallow, linear and not particularly well written. Reassembly Took a while for this to click, but once it did it was decent enough. I could have spent many hours playing this in the ‘90s, but it didn’t have enough of interest for me to do so now. 12 Labours of Hercules V: Kids of Hellas Cute enough, I suppose, but quickly became repetitive. Aaero A music-based shooter with poorly explained shooter mechanics and music which was very much not to my taste. One track really stood out as effectively blending the music and game mechanics, but that should have been the standard rather than the exception. Purrfect Date This game is presented as a cutesy, tongue-in-cheek game and for the most part it pulls that off pretty well. If that was the sum of it, I'd be reasonably satisfied. Instead, there is a dark, unpleasant story underneath, with numerous descriptions of animal abuse. It's utterly jarring - a game which is presented as being for cat lovers (not that kind of lover), yet featuring descriptions of them being victims of torture, experimentation and killing. The closest thing to a warning on the store page is a reference to "black humour", which doesn't cover it in my view. There is no humour in these scenes, so it’s not “black humour”. I don’t know what it is, other than a simply bizarre choice. Even putting aside the lack of warning, it's an unpleasant and jarring experience. I'm at a loss as to what on earth the devs were thinking. The writing is otherwise reasonably good. The structure of the game, however, is poor. It requires multiple playthroughs to get a proper ending, and there is no way to quickly skip the text. Prepare for RSI, clicking through page after page of dialogue, if you ever want to get to the ending. Suffice to say, going through this once is quite enough for me. Space Hulk Ascension I normally love turn-based combat, especially with RPG progression, but this was just dull and frustrating. Not having a good year with Warhammer games. Super Daryl Deluxe All very QUIRKY, and constantly at pains to remind you of how QUIRKY it is, without ever being particularly amusing. The art style is at least eyecatching, and some of the music is decent, but the writing didn’t grab me at all. The combat was a grindy battle of attrition – the only thing worse than “kill x monster” quests are “collect x items which randomly drop from only a small percentage of monsters after you kill them” quests. Add in the ever-frustrating boss fights where you had to win through repeating an unintuitive set of actions several times, and I didn’t feel like going much further. Think of the Children Nice idea, and it’s good to play a locally-made game, but it’s dreadfully designed for a single player. Although it can have up to three co-op partners, it doesn’t adjust the difficulty in the slightest to cater for a solo player rendering it near-impossible. Legend of Grimrock 2 Obtuse puzzles, clumsy combat and bland design made this quickly unappealing. FIFA 19 I mainly just played for the story mode, which was fine. Didn't notice much of a difference from 18. Out of the Park Baseball 20 No discernible improvement upon its predecessor. Oriental Empires Some nice ideas, but thoroughly dull. In six hours I was attacked three times by bandits and spent the rest of the time painstakingly building farms. Iratus: Lord of the Dead An enjoyable little strategy game. I will probably go back to it since it's in early access and is constantly being rebalanced. Into the Breach Moderately interesting strategy, but not enough to keep me coming back. There Came An Echo Iridium's previous game, Before the Echo (aka Sequence) was a flawed but enjoyable hidden gem. There Came an Echo has a similar level of charm, but two fundamental problems. The first is that it was simply unplayable on my PC. A black screen after loading; no way past it. Apparently it was due to an incompatibility with my microphone which is rather problematic when I don't HAVE a microphone. The second is that (having used my partner's computer to run it) ultimately it's a very raw proof of concept. Like its predecessor it has charm in the voice acting and writing, but unlike its predecessor it is just not a lot of fun to play. Put aside the gimmick of giving voice commands and you're left with a short, clumsy, shallow and frustrating experience. World of Mixed Martial Arts 5 As usual for the series (indeed, the dev in general), a stack of good ideas marred by fundamental flaws. Good as a hypnotic experience between other games. Star Trek Timelines I tried this briefly a few years ago and didn't get into it, but I certainly did this year. It's all pretty shallow, but as a fan-friendly timewaster it's decent enough. Football Manager Touch 2019 Endlessly infuriating, and a bit buggy, but always manages to draw me back in.
My 2019 Review - completed my 12in12, and beat 40 games overall!
Hello all – and welcome to a review of my year in gaming! First of all, I want to thank the sub. Not only did I beat all 12 games on my original list, I maintained motivation to continue to work through a significant chunk of the rest of my backlog, to the point where I didn’t feel guilty about picking up some new stuff to play towards the end of the year. Some titles such as the old MGS games, Metroid Prime 3, and GTA IV have been in my backlog for over a decade so it’s immensely satisfying to have finally played through them. It’s also been great seeing everyone else’s progress and discussing games in the comments. I’ll definitely be taking part again for 2020! Anyway, to my 2019 awards! Favourite Game of the Year | Shadow of the Colossus Honourable mentions here to Death Stranding, Ori and the Blind Forest and MGS3, all of which will go down as favourites, but SotC is my favourite game I’ve played this year. The feeling of taking down each colossus is unbeatable, and the overall design of the game has a powerful simplicity to it that I feel a lot of modern games could learn from Favourite 2019 Game of the Year | Death Stranding When reviewing my list I realised I only actually played 3 games that came out this year (4 if you count Halo: Reach being ported), but Death Stranding is the clear winner here, and is probably second place in my overall rankings. I found it to be an incredible experience, with a really clever take on the open world formula, and a story that blew me away. RE2 Remake was also fantastic, and I’d recommend Link’s Awakening if you have a Switch Worst Game of the Year | Detroit: Become Human Despite being fairly short I struggled to find the motivation to finish this game. Gameplay was very tedious and I did not at any point care about the characters. There were some funny moments to be had from not taking it too seriously but ultimately I found this really disappointing, especially as a fan of Heavy Rain. Favourite Soundtrack | Nier: Automata One of the best soundtracks ever in gaming, right up there with DKC2. I’m desperate to see it in concert but the tickets seem to sell out in seconds! Honourable mentions in this category go to A Hat in Time and Ori and the Blind Forest Biggest Surprise | Her Story Despite being a 2-3 hour game, where the entire gameplay is just watching videos and typing words into a box, this game had more of an impact on me than most other games I played this year. This game had no right to be as good as it was, especially when it cost me less than £1 on Steam In total, I managed to beat 40 games this year, which I’m certain is a personal record, although I’ve never actually kept count before. I’ve started off by listing my awards, but I thought I may as well copy in my brief thoughts on all the games I played this year. Mostly these are just copied from when I originally posted them in my monthly updates, but in some cases I’ve altered the review if I felt that my opinion had changed significantly since I’d played the game. *asterisk indicates game was on my start of year list of 12 January Nier: Automata (PS4) – finally bothered to play this after my gf was bugging me to for ages. Dragged in places and was generally a bit too ‘rpg’ for me but the combat is fun and story is definitely something different, and has one of the best soundtracks I’ve heard in a while *Resident Evil 4 HD (PS4) - fantastic game – engaging well-paced story, superb gameplay, and amazing setpieces and boss fights - cannot believe I didn't play this before, despite having about 4 different consoles that it's appeared on *Guacamelee 2 (Switch) - more of the same from the first one, which is definitely not a bad thing in itself, but it did on occasion feel a little too familiar and on the whole wasn’t too memorable A Way Out (PS4) – picked this up on a whim to play with my girlfriend. We had a lot of fun with it, the gameplay is pretty simple but the story is half decent, and some potential for hilarity with the minigames Her Story (PC) - really amazing little game, played it in about 2-3 hours. the game itself is very short, but kept me up thinking about it that night and I spent much of the next couple of days reading fan theories online February Super Mario Odyssey (Switch) [Replay] – already got 999 moons back when it released, but started a new save a while back just so I could cruise round grabbing moons whenever I was bored, and eventually got to the end again. Still dipping in every now and then when the mood strikes. My opinion has not changed on it. It’s amazing, non-stop fun for countless hours *Metroid Prime 3 (Wii) - first 2 are amongst my favourite games ever, so I was very happy to finally get round to this. Overall probably not at the level of the others, but moment to moment gameplay is some of the best in the series, especially the bosses Shadow of the Tomb Raider (PS4) - probably the opposite of Her Story in that, while the game took me 15 hours or so, once I beat it I put it down and basically moved on immediately. That being said it was a fun experience and probably my favourite of the reboot series Bayonetta (Switch) - wanted to play this for ages but was put off by the price tag. Finally took the plunge and was hooked immediately. Went back to see if I could get some platinum ranks but ultimately I don’t have the time or patience to ‘git gud’ *Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty (PS2) - been in my backlog for about 15 years so feels pretty good to have finally experienced this legendary game. Other than a few minor plot points, I'd managed to not have the story spoiled all this time and it was definitely worth it March RE2 Remake (PC) – really, really good, originally was just going to play the first run and leave it, but it was so good I didn’t hesitate to go straight into the 2nd scenario. Not played the original so was very pleasantly surprised at how ‘Metroidvania-y’ it was, particularly the first half *Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater (PS3) – absolutely brilliant. Hands down my favourite of the series so far. Was a bit worried after the very slow first few hours but for the middle and latter parts of the game I could not put it down *Uncharted: Drake’s Fortune (PS4) – A decent game, but shooters generally aren’t my thing so I’d have preferred a bit of variety in the game between gunfights, and some aspects did feel quite dated. Overall I had fun though and looking forward to playing the 2nd and 3rd entries, which from what I gather are a significant step up in quality *Marvel’s Spider-Man (PS4) – an awesome game, I was expecting to like it but I was ended up completely addicted in a way which I haven’t been since probably God of War on PS4 last year. I was going all out on the extras and collectibles and got the platinum, which is very unlike me, but the combat and swinging mechanics were so fun that I was just glad to have an excuse to play more God of War (2005) (PS3) The PS4 game in 2018 has gone down as one of my all-time favourites, but I thought going back to the original might be a little underwhelming in comparison. Turns out I absolutely loved it - satisfying gameplay and combat, well-paced, and plenty of memorable moments. However, I wish there’d been more than 3 major bosses, and a few smaller platforming and puzzle sections honestly felt broken, but aside from that I think it was a near perfect game and have since added the 2nd and 3rd entries on to my “to play” list April *Uncharted 2: Among Thieves (PS4) – great fun. The gunfights were varied and entertaining, there were more than a few spectacular moments, and the characters and story were surprisingly interesting. For a now 10 year old game, it has held up pretty well, although this may be in part because I played the PS4 remastered version *Uncharted 3: Drake’s Deception (PS4) – Slightly slow start had me feeling a little underwhelmed, but about half way through the game completely flipped out - the whole watecruise ship sequence, catching the plane, the bit in the desert and the trippy final level will all stick with me as wonderful gaming moments – the fact they all happened back-to-back meant it was one of the most relentless sequence of unforgettable gaming moments I have experienced Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End (PS4) [Replay] – decided to replay this now having played the rest of the games and probably enjoyed it more this time round. On a technical level it’s clearly the best – with tighter gameplay, incredible graphics and it’s by far the lengthiest adventure in the series – and, while I don’t generally care too much about story in games, I found myself invested in it here and really liked all the characters. I felt its best moments weren’t quite at the level of 3, and there was a lot of walking around and climbing, but overall it’s a great experience May Detroit: Become Human (PS4) – Difficult to really say how I feel about this one. I found the story a bit silly and never really felt invested in the characters, but it did mean I didn’t take it too seriously and ended up laughing a lot at the dialogue and some of the choices you can make. That being said I found the gameplay really tedious and was just glad to be done with it by the end Ori and the Blind Forest (PC) – Loved this game. Gameplay was tight and fluid, some of the level design I thought was genius, and the visuals and soundtrack are both absolutely stunning. Add to that an emotional story with a surprisingly epic feel and you’ve got what’s probably my favourite game I’ve played so far this year. Can’t wait for the sequel Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney (Switch) – Really nice game, the cases for the most part were interesting, the banter between characters is funny, and the gameplay loop is surprisingly engaging. I’d say a couple of the cases felt a bit tame compared to the others, and the last one drags on a bit too long, but only playing in short bursts I never really got too tired of it Grand Theft Auto IV (PS3) – finally beat this for the first time, 11 years after first picking it up. When it originally came out, I was disappointed – it lacked many features of the previous games and, in short, I’d felt they’d prioritised realism over fun. Going back to it now I appreciated the story and the atmosphere a lot more, and Niko might be my favourite protagonist in the series. Unfortunately, however, the game overall doesn’t really hold up too well – the controls don’t feel great, the missions are kind of repetitive, and the second half of the game dragged on way too long. Add to that the lack of mission checkpoints mean replaying a lot of tedious stuff meant that despite it being an overall enjoyable experience, there was a lot of frustration along the way *Darksiders: Warmastered Edition (PC) – Really solid game. Basically a Zelda clone, which is fine by me – it’s pretty much why I went for the game in the first place – but the combat is a lot more like old God of War games. I thought the combat was fun, though didn’t feel quite as fluid as I’d have hoped, but the dungeons were really good and a couple in particular easily stood up to the standards of the 3D Zelda games. Some of the bosses were cool too. Not sure I’ll bother with the second though, maybe someday Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons (PC) – great little game. Controls were a bit weird but never too bothersome, the visuals and the music were brilliant, especially for an indie title, and the puzzles were simple but engaging enough to keep me interested to the end Bayonetta 2 (Switch) – Super, super fun. Every encounter seems to have something new, and when I started to master some of the combos I was seriously hooked. Because of the extra levels and all the unlockables and different characters I was tempted to run back through it again, but have decided to save that for another time June Batman: Arkham Asylum (PS4) – awesome game. I didn’t like the combat at first, but it grew on me throughout the game, and the stealth mechanics and the environmental puzzling were solid throughout. Riddler trophies were addictive to pick up as well, didn’t get near to doing all of them so maybe will go back some time and knock them off *Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots (PS3) – after 11 years of frantically avoiding spoilers I finally got round to this. The gameplay is fantastic and overall felt like a great update to the slightly clunky PS2-era control of the previous entries. Some of the setpieces and boss battles were incredible as well. It’s difficult to rate the story on its own merits since it’s so heavily intertwined with the older games, but in any case, I really enjoyed every moment with this and felt it was a satisfying conclusion to the series. Admittedly there were some weird bits that didn’t really make sense, but that comes with the territory and the game had such an epic feel that I was never too bothered August God of War II (PS3) – So after being pleasantly surprised at how good the original game was, I was excited to try the second. Based on what I’ve heard over the years, I was expecting a more refined game but ultimately more of the same. That’s largely what it is, but I don’t really think that description really gives it justice. This game is incredible. All of the annoying aspects from the first are gone; no more obnoxious difficulty spikes, more frequent and more spectacular bosses, and greater variety in both puzzles and environments. I had a harder time putting this game down than I can remember having for a long, long time. Don’t yet own the third but will definitely be checking it out before the year is over A Hat in Time (PC) – After losing patience on waiting for the Switch version, I decided just to pick this up in the Steam summer sale. I’d heard a lot of good things, but even so I was surprised with how much fun I had with it. Awesome soundtrack too *Shadow of the Colossus (PS3) – I can definitely see what all the fuss is about, this was an incredible experience I won’t soon forget. Despite the formulaic structure of the game, it never felt repetitive, the soundtrack is absolutely stunning, and the story… damn. The controls kinda sucked, but in a perverse way I think this added to my enjoyment of the game. It’s not that the controls were unreliable, but they always felt a bit wonky to the point I was never totally confident I was going to manage what I was I was trying to do, which added to the satisfying feeling of finally taking down each colossus. The controls were actually more annoying in between battles when trying to wrangle the horse across the map. I played on PS3 – simply because I already had it lying around - but felt that the game was visually impressive nonetheless. Having since looked up some clips of the PS4 remake I think I’d upgrade were I ever to replay it as from what I’ve seen it looks like a massive improvement Ratchet & Clank (2002) (PS3) – Pretty fun, and aside from a few slightly annoying checkpoints it seems to have aged well September Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance (PS3) – after playing Bayonetta 1+2 and Nier Automata earlier in the year, as well as all the mainline MGS games, it made sense to check this one out. It was really good fun all the way through, albeit a little short at only 6 hours. Might be worth another run through some time on a higher difficulty Resident Evil 7 (PC) – Really enjoyed this. Story was actually pretty good, and the atmosphere when exploring the house was extremely tense, especially in the first half of the game Link’s Awakening (Switch) – Never played the original but I did mostly enjoy this. The art style was cool and I really liked the boss design – even if pretty much all of them were a total cakewalk. Ended up going round and picking up all the collectibles and would definitely recommend to anyone who hasn’t played it before. The price point is a bit high for what it is but since I finished it quite quickly I was able to trade it in and get most of it back Metal Gear Solid V (PC) – absolutely loved this game. I’d heard a fair bit about it before so was well prepared in advance for the unfinished feeling story, and as such I didn’t let it affect my enjoyment at all, and basically played it as a pure stealth sandbox. In that respect it was excellent and I pretty much enjoyed every second of my 50 hours with this October Forza Horizon 4 (PC) – for some reason I had a serious itch to play a driving game, and after trying out a couple demos I went with this and couldn’t be happier with my choice. I’m counting it as ‘beaten’ because I’ve knocked off the main single player events but I’m still dipping in now and again to try new challenges or go online God of War 3 (PS3) – a blast from start to finish, and a very satisfying way to finish off the original trilogy. Having gone back and played the old games I’m now itching to replay the 2018 version with a new perspective Spyro 2 (PS4) – fun for the most part, and had originally planned to go for 100%, but eventually dropped it out of a combination of boredom and frustration. November Death Stranding (PS4) – was hyped for this for a very long time, and even more so having played through all the Metal Gear games this year. Suffice to say it did not disappoint, and I am still plugging away and working on the platinum December Halo: Reach (PC) – I never had an Xbox of any kind so my Halo experience was limited to the odd split screen match with my friends or my brother, but it’s always been at the back of mind that I’d like to at least play through the campaigns one day. When it came to PC I got it straight away, and the single player was absolutely amazing, and I cannot wait for the other games to be rolled out next year. Thankfully the online is really active which has been a lot of fun, anyone who wants to party up let me know! Games I’ve been playing lately: · Yakuza 0 – I’m on chapter 10 and honestly if I had beaten it this year it might be my game of the year, I love everything about it and there’s still so much to do · Doom 2016 – So Halo: Reach was only the second pure FPS campaign I’ve ever beaten (After COD: MW2 way back when), and I kind of got interested in what else there was out there. Picked up Doom for a few quid in the Steam sale and really enjoyed the first few levels, but it’s on hold for now as I’m really enjoying Halo Reach online which is taking priority when I’m in the mood to shoot stuff · Death Stranding –already beaten this but I’m spending a couple of hours a week just plugging away at the platinum. It’s a bit of a grind to be honest which is why I’ve partly moved onto other things · Phoenix Wright 2 – only have the last case to do, I’ll get to it eventually! · The Messenger – picked this up for free on Epic store. I played through the first few levels and had a blast but haven’t gone back to it since. · Hitman 2016 – another one I picked up in the Steam sale. I’ve only played the tutorial and the Paris level but it’s a lot of fun. It feels like it needs some more time investment to really make the most out of so it’s likely something I’ll go back to in the new year And that’s it! I’m excited to see the rest of your yearly reviews - In the meantime I will mull over what I want to commit to for my 12in12 in 2020!
