I LOVE RESET!!!!!
Unnecessary, padded with filler, probably the worst story fights in the entire series and the new agent style is clunky and boring but god damn the ending fucked me up.
If I have to listen to Akeme shout "Joryu!" one more time I'll digitise myself and break her neck.

Its the same game again with barely any changes and persona 5-fied, its a shame 'cause both tartarus and how the game is structured to make you advance on full moons is just plain annoying and obsolete.
The hardest difficulty just makes enemies become damage sponges for no reason whatsoever.
Let's also not forget that its denuvo ridden as well.
Thank you Microsoft for the free game pass trial, god knows I'd not spend a single dime on this garbage.

kurokawa did nothing wrong
Another banger entry, after two games of buildup watching the oh-so perfect, strong and idolised Yuzuriha-senpai from the other protagonists/characters POV, it felt great to see what truly lies behind the masquerade.
For the first time in the series they finally decided to tackle the subject of homosexuality and faith more head on which was cool.

I LOVE ERIKA!!!
For real tho i loved her witty, sarcastic and teasing attitude, seeing things from her point of view was at least for me way more relatable and entertaining than with Suou.
How they managed the dynamic between her and Chidori was great and the mystery sections while a lot simpler this time around, were a lot better.

other than the mystery sections being a little bs and some translation errors/typos here and there it's quite a comfy experience, would recommend to fans of SoL and yuri.

This is one of those games that I don't feel like reviewing as I see it more like an experience I'll never forget rather than a game.
I'll just say this: it is unique, it is as fantastical as it is mundane and I don't think it will get the attention of many people but those it does, it will stay with them forever.

is it too much to ask that my beloved emotionless hata no kokoro be added to one of the regular mainline games?
Mask of the Lunar Eclipse is a game about overcoming one's past, the importance of oneself, what constitutes the self and identity; all inside a classic Zero story involving rituals and traditions.
While not one of the most accomplished remasters out there (especially for the price) it still brings new life to this lovely game, thankfully the days of meddling with the old fan patch and its questionable translation are now behind us.
The new models look amazing although its a shame the same amount of care wasn't put into all of them.
The new blueish colour hue surrounding its environments feels a lot more consistent with the theme of the moon and probably for the first time in my life playing games I've thoroughly enjoyed how they applied a granular filter of sorts so that it wouldn't lose its original vibe.
Words alone can't really describe how happy I am that this game is finally free from the curse that is the Wii.
Hopefully if this does well we get a new entry in the series, fingers crossed its more akin to 2 and 4 rather than the disaster that was 5.
Is this a game I'd recommend to anyone?
No, this is a game for Zero fans first and foremost and people that love good old 2000s J-horror and the inherent clunkiness that comes with most of them.

I want to congratulate Atlus (and most likely the third world studio they hired to make this garbage IN UNITY) on what's possibly one of the worst experiences I've had with PC gaming in the past few years.
-The pause button doesn't work for some reason (literally have to alt-tab just to pause)
-You can't access config settings in-game.
-Player movement gets absolutely fucked when playing with over 60fps.
-Have to restart my PC after each time I close the game because otherwise it wont launch (which I think it's related to having multiple monitors and the game always wanting to try and launch on the third when it's set to launch on the first one).
-Config settings aren't applied when you launch the game so you have to wait for the save file to be loaded.
-You can't bind shift to the run button, for some reason the default is 1 and select if you are using a controller.
-Controller keeps pressing up even if I'm not even touching it when using bluetooth (tried with 2 different controllers).
-Controller almost works when hardwired BUT for some reason I can't move the character forward and the camera to the sides at the same time.
-Random stutters.
-As far as I'm aware there's not even an option to close the game other than alt-f4, pressing escape literally just resets the camera position.
It's so bad there's no way it wasn't on purpose, if anyone is wondering; I'm running the MS store version, though I doubt that's even relevant considering the game is also garbage on consoles from what I have seen.
Only reason I even bothered with this pos was because it was added to game pass, my heart goes out to anyone that paid more than a dollar for it.
