In April I finished Grandia which turned out to be one of the funnest games I’ve played in a while and definitely regret sleeping on for so long. Also finished both Nights of Azure games and now starting my journey through another series I never experienced which is the Mana series. Hoping to finish at least the first 3 games to be ready in time for the upcoming Visions of Mana. On the fence about Neptunia as a big fan of the series but was kinda disappointed in Sisters vs Sisters which this game looks very similar to. I’ll play it eventually but it might not be a day one like past titles in the series.

Awesome video as per usual. I haven't really played much in April - well in terms of quantity of games. Have still been playing Gems of War (only 2 trophies away from the 100%) and Elden Ring (which I've been working on since the end of March). Keep up all the great work and see you for the next one.

I'd say I would like to finish both Gems of War (barring another DLC/Patch that adds trophies) and Elden Ring, but based on the date now as well as work, I don't see it happening, so would like to knock them both out before my bday in June.

April was, for me, split between Breath of Fire III and Final Fantasy IX on PSone and Link's Awakening DX on NSO for Nintendo Switch, the later of which I managed to finish yesterday! And with Breath of Fire III, I have officially surprised my original playthrough and even got to a certain massive pivot in the story that I won't spoil. I've also been playing some Pokemon AlphaSapphire here and there in my downtime, and it's been really comforting to revisit

Hearing more about it, I really gotta get to "Eiyuden Chronicle" sooner than latter. I just have so much else I gotta catch up on as well. Still haven't started "Unicorn Overlord" either for instance. "FF7 Rebirth" really took way too long for me to finish. It pushed back everything else into this hodge-podge of "I'll get to it eventually". Oh well, all in good time I suppose. At least I'm finally done with it. That said, I think the only notable RPG I played in April is "Mistover", though that's Korean and not Japanese. Been wanting to start it for a good while but it's actually delisted everywhere. Thankfully, it did have an English-Asian physical version so I managed to nab a copy of that at a mostly reasonable price. Even came with a still active DLC voucher somehow. It's a bit simple in some aspects but I really did enjoy it. A shame it's kind of condemned to just be forgotten now.

I have Saga Frontiers Remastered which I just didn't like so i didn't get far. I tried the Saga demo as it looked bright and colorful but unfortunately I didn't like it either. The dialog was uninteresting and the combat system unclear. I've decided Saga games are not for me. I don’t bother putting much time into things I initially dislike because there's a huge roster of games I love. Like Unicorn Overlord. I tried Honkai Star Rail after watching someones playthrough for an hour and I absolutely love it. Never thought I'd play a gacha game but the writing, voice acting and stories are outstanding. Thanks once again for your video!

Sad you didnt like Saga beyond Emerauld. This saga game is for me the best for new comers. I'm currently finishing my Diva playthrought (not a spoiler but she transforms into a robot as her adventure starts). I have 4 weeks off from work so i'm playing seriously my backlog. April was a total mess with again buying new games with the hype to only start them, then put them in the backlog. I hate myself doing that again 😅 but nvm. I can't wait june releases tho (monster hunter stories 1 and 2 on ps5 will be a plat goal for me!). Also smt 5 apocalypse which looks even better than the royal edition to persona 5.

When you posted your march update, i was finishing up Tales of Symphonia. That got done, i liked it, but it wasn't that S tier exp that people talk about so much. But i will continue the series eventually. But then, I decided to start Trails in the Sky, and amazingly so, got it done in about 2/3 weeks, doing 100% and 66 hours. I loved it. For this month, its going to the sequel, SC, which i just started. As for gachas/mobile, i dont play them, but i really want Persona 5 X comes to west. No idea why its taking so long.

Love to hear you’re enjoying Trails in the Sky, I hope to get to it myself someday :)) As for Persona X, it’s an interesting one for sure. It’s not even in JP yet though, so I’m guessing it’ll hit there first. I’m not sure how to feel about it yet, so would also love to see how it gets localized to make up my mind. But yeah, hopefully sooner rather than later :3

Symphonia gets way more hype than it should and it’s most likely because it was the first Tales game on a Nintendo console when it first came out in the early 2000s. Most modern tales games are better than it. Give Vesperia, Arise, Graces F, Abyss and Xillia a try. I think you will like them more.

I was working on Rise of the Ronin for most of April. Started Sandland. Kinda bored with it. I'll finish it, but it's a bit of a "baby's first open world" game. It's good, but not for me. I'm skeptical that I'd like Eiyuden, just because I'm not a big repeated playthrough kinda guy. The new SaGa game did not seem like a good intro to that series. I'd played one of the Romancing SaGa for a bit, but never finished. There was a Neptunia game that came out on Playstation Extra this month. Might try it just to see if I like the series or not. Seems a little too in the weeds for me. I'm still chipping on Rebirth. I might dedicate May to working on it. I've also got Animal Well, Balatro, and System Shock planned for May. I still want to get back to Octopath 2, but I've been busy too. Alas. My next big planned JRPG is Shin Megami V in June.

Luckily enough, I finally managed to get my hands on a PS5 and bought Rebirth for it lol.

I have been continuing my Trails to Azure playthrough. I'm at chapter 4, so I'm almost done. Things really do get intense by chapter 3. Once I finish Azure, I'm going to play Steller Blade as a break from the Trails series. After that, I'm going to start my 2nd playthrough Trails of Cold Steel (I played this game a really long time ago and I remember it had Azure references which I had no idea what they were about but now I know and I'm excited to play it again and this time finish all the Cold Steel series). I also tried out the Saga Emerald demo (PS5 version, which only let me choose the guy who was the main character) and I didn't like it. I actually didn't even finish it. Static images, partial voice acting, scenes seemed to be all over the place, not liking the main character guy, and other things. I guess it's just not my type of game. As for my Resleriana playthrough, I got to chapter 4, but I got stuck as I'm not properly leveled. So, I haven't advanced with the story much but I have been leveling my characters little by little.
