This looks like the kind of game my 10 year old self would play ad nauseam. People forget that not every game has to be an existential experience, with cryptic stories, complex progression systems, gray morals, full of cynicism and a bleak worldview. Outside of Nintendo, few games seem to be just simple and fun without looking down on the audience so that even children are enchanted by them. It's this type of game that makes young people fall in love with the medium and creates gamers.

Look you got games like wonderful 101 tho with sick action gameplay and depth and somewhat intricate controls but also has a baby mode for people who don't like having too much control and find it daunting, but isn't dark or brooding or edgy. It's colorful and fun. If I play a game I wish I had more control of I'm almost always done but that isn't a problem and it's super uplifting in tone

Sounds like it’s 14-16 hours on those days working. He doesn’t write scripts, he just writes bullet points and happens to be good at expanding and explaining those points on the fly while not having verbal tics like “um” or pauses (itself an impressive skill). He has nobody else working for him, like say doing video editing, everything is 100% him. Impressive AF work ethic. And gaming stamina, I must say 😆 honestly, I can’t go for more than a few hours gaming before I’m done with it for the day.

You're one of the only reviewers who covers jrpgs as extensively as the other genres and doesn't have a bias against them and you rate them fairly, which is truly very rare of popular youtubers Since you made a video about first impressions of Granblue fantasy relink, any chances you could do a 100% review of that, the game is in a great state now ,that a second free content update for the game dropped a few days ago and I think you'll really like it... Hopefully we see a review from you soon!! (P.S. its a long one to 100% XD)

I can pretty much agree with everything you've said. Before buying it, I did expect to see different types of dungeons, and while the dungeons were pretty similar, I still thought they were fun to go through. I still wished there would've been more like that dungeon you go through while travelling to Forest Land (without spoiling too much). The game is simple and fun, and sometimes that's all you need. Especially since the game I've played previous to this one was Icewind Dale, it was a nice change of pace. Also while the price for the game definitely is kinda steep, it unfortunately isn't surprising for a Bandai Namco game. I didn't feel robbed after finishing the game because I had a great time with it. But just like Mortismal, if you are kinda short on money, wait for a sale.

I really like games that take this concept. Games like this are daunting to make, by design. I find games like this take SO much work. Making an empty world without it being empty is really hard to tackle without P-Gen tech, or making the gameplay too redundant. I'm currently trying to tackle this problem. I'm trying to find immersion vast emptiness without it feeling like a walking simulator. Hoping for an ah ha moment soon lol

@@MortismalGaming That all makes sense! I love CRPGs but I am notoriously slow to finish them, even when I'm putting in effort to finish lol. Love the channel man, you're one of the few reviewers I trust for honest, well crafted reviews. I can tell you do it for the love of the game, so to speak. Have a great rest of your day!

Maybe it's just me, but modern JRPGs, with a few exceptions, all seem very samey to me. They've mostly all become button mashy action games, with lots of similar systems, cooking, similar dialog and sound effects, most of them are very heavy on particle effects that all end up looking and feeling much the same. Tales of, Ys, the SAO games, this game, even FF16 started to feel that way to me. It wasn't always the case, but these days I much prefer western RPGs

Enjoying the game so far. It feels very easy to pick up and make decent progress in 30 minutes or an hour unlike some others games ive played recently. Love the visuals even the hand to hand combat, which is very mediocre, looks great. I was fighting against an enemy that shot missles at me so I equipped something that automatically shot the missles, and it was so much fun driving through all that chaos. I do wish the platforming was a little tighter. I feel like I often miss grabbing ledges or the jump heights are randomly different or it will go straight into the animation for the double jump without the first jump. Also it has some weird stealth and 2.5d areas that dont really add anything to the game.

Yeah, it just looks like one of those I'll pick up once it hits it's first sale. Just $10-$15 off would make this a good buy for me personally.

I'll add this to the 'keep an eye on it and snap up during a sale' list. There just isn't enough free time in the day for me to keep up with all these games. Not the worst problem to have, by any means.

always interesting to see how different countrys/cultures deal with media content and the age of kids. In germany this game is rated for 12 year old and above.

Technically it's rated Teen here in the US but that's literally just because they say damn a few times.

@@MortismalGaming cursing is usually not factored in in the german rating. Its usual violence that affects the rating. Thats what i meant different cultures an ratings. Seems in the US violence is ok, but anything sexual is not. In contrast in germany its the opposite

@@terenor8294 it's more about the context of the violence here, like this for instance has no blood and is very cartoonish in nature and thus easily identified as unrealistic. Once you start showing blood/gore etc it changes.

this game looks like a great first game. since it has the core of an amazing game, and the major issues, can easily be fixed in a sequel.

Is there any missable achievements. I'm currently playing it blind but I was just curious if I would need to do a new game to obtain the perfect game completion.
