The list has shortnened a bit, as I've recognized there are some games I like more than others. Persona 4 Golden is a difficult one, because I'm currently stuck on a boss that's wiped my team from full health twice, just before I beat the damn thing. It was frustrating, to say the least, and when something like that happens it usually takes a week or so for me to give it another try. Since I only have one more day of vacation, I doubt, I'm going to pick up Persona again. Kirby: Triple Deluxe, but the simplicity is beginning to wear on me. I can rarely play more than one level in a sitting because the game simply gets boring. This isn't to say it's a bad game in any way, and I completely understand that the target age group is younger than me. I do think it's fair to hope however, that the game could appeal to a wider age range. Sure, I could go back to the levels to get collectibles, but right now the levels seem so simple that it would be twice as boring to go back for additional completion. Kirby: Triple Deluxe is a well designed game that is too easy for me to get invested in it, but that's fine because I have plenty of other games to play. Dragon's Crown is still enjoyable, with a loop similar to Diablo of gathering loot, leveling up and conquering bosses. The game does have a fair amount of grinding, with levels having to be repeated to complete sidequests with large experience bonuses. I enjoy grinding, so this wasn't much of a problem, but it is obvious that some bosses are made to be beaten with friends. I don't know anyone who owns the game, so I'll have to grind through it solo. It gets a little frustrating to play the game for long stretches of time, because this almost always requires playing each stage 2 or 3 times over, for experience and to complete sidequests. But as a portable game played in short bursts, it certainly gets the job done. Proteus is a cool little experience, which is based around exploration, and observing your surroundings. I like picking up the game for 10 minutes to take in the beautfiful art-style, but it won't hold the average player's attention for very long. It's fine, because this is how the game is designed, but don't go into it expecting a "game" in the most literal sense of the word. Finally, I've been leveling in Pokemon Y, which has been taking up most of my time. The battles are fast, and the next objective is always clear, it's just a matter of making my Pokemon strong enough to overcome the next challenge. Because Game Freak has been perfecting their formula for decades, grinding in Pokemon Y is ore fun than it's ever been. With the added usefullness of the EXP Share, leveling all Pokemon in your party is simple. My only complaint is that the game is initially much easier than previous entries, but I've begun to attempt the massive task for which the series is known (hint: it's the tagline). As a portable game, Pokemon Y is brilliant because it can be played in very small bursts, or marathoned just as easily. I suspect the game will end up consuming the rest of my free-time while on vacation.
