My only goal was to make my daughter the best sorceress ever, which I achieved but she also hated her upbringing and became a sinner.

I will never be a dad/10

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.

Ru-ru-ru-ru! this is persona 5 but good!

one star goes to the OST, the other is 'cause i got to bully bird again

this is the srpg ive been looking for my entire life

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.
