What else can me said that wasn't already said?
-
Great followup to To the Moon and A Bird Story.
-
Fantastic characters. Even though I don't care much for cyberpunk settings I got really into the world.
-
+ fault milestone two
Another example of great worldbuilding in my opinion. I got really into how things work in this universe.
The biggest issue for me is that only 2 games are out of a planed 6 or 7, so the story is very, very incomplete, and the developers are taking their time to polish the games up so they are not coming out fast enough to quench my thirst.
-
Some horrory elements, but no jump scares, just creepy scenes and atmosphere building. Short and enjoyable story with some twists.
-
The next expansion for my MMO of choice. Even though they added more random boxes to the gemstore recently and that soured me on the game the actual content and story of the expansion was pretty fun.
-
Pretty good Tales game. I liked the characters and the fact that the story wasn't just "Good guys save the world", though the combat was too loose for me and relies too much on randomly inflicted status effects.
-
The best playing Dark Souls game. Nothing very surprising about it, but it's solid and I had my fun.
-
Fate/stay night is my favorite Visual Novel, and this sequel is pretty good, but you have to be ready for everyday shananigans mostly. The main story isn't that great. It's twists are predictable, and it takes a long time to get going. But the ratio of main story scenes to side scenes is like 1:6 or higher. I enjoyed the shananigans since I like the characters and I got more of those characters, but there's just sooo muuuch of it and the ratio of so off that I did get a bit sick of it by the end.
-
My first Monster Hunter like game and I had a lot of fun with the first one.
Didn't finish GE2 yet since starting it right after playing a lot of GE1 cause my to burn out a bit, and sadly GE2 is a regress from the GE1 remake (because they added stuff from 2 back to 1 and improved it).
-
A lovely story, though it's just a love story and I need something more from my stories usually.
-
A very good RPG in the style of Baldur's Gate, though unfortunately some cut corners did bother me more then they should.
-
Similar to God Eater, this is my first Dynasty Warriors like game. There's more Visual Novel then gameplay, and the story makes no sense unless you played the PSP Fate/Extra games.
I had my fun, but the gameplay did get repetitive unfortunately. Levels get reused with little changes, your own units don't do shit, and you have to frantically move from room to room to get a good score, often clearing out things you cleared out already cause they're getting taken over.
-
A fun and short RPG. I wish they had a different character customization system, cause early on you don't know what to put points into, but later on if you mostly focus on one stat you're kind of OP.
-
Being a Kingdom Hearts fan this was a must play for me, but it makes me worried about where the franchise is going.
-
Actually a really funny clicker game, that can be finished in a couple of days and doesn't expect you to play infinity.
-
Short VN / Puzzle hybrid. It was ok, though the main character behaviour in the first half of the game is grading.
-
You and the dealer both pick cards that make a deck, and the deck becomes your randomly generated level. Was pretty fun till the end, cause the last 2-3 levels are a huge difficulty spike that you need luck to get through, and the combat mechanics get boring.
-
The puzzles were OK, but I didn't get the story. And the magic of having everything contained in a singular box was replaces with totally different rooms.
Puzzles are still fun, but it's less surprising then the first game and tries too hard to have it's own, weird story around it.

Replay, so placement does not count.
Kingdom Hearts 2 is still one of the best games ever and I'll keep replaying it.

Still a great game, and the lack of loading screens on PC helps.
