Metroid Prime Remastered Review (Switch, 2023)

For once a HD remake that doesn't offend me. Unlike games such as Wind Waker HD and Demon's Souls HD, Metroid Prime Remastered managed to stay decently faithful to the look and feel of its originator.

Daemon X Machina Review (Switch, 2019)

A welcome surprise. Daemon X Machina is straight to the point. The player begins a mission and, after a short story sequence, gets right into the action. No open world with side missions that have them spend hours running back and forth, no need for counterintuitive fast-travel implementations.

Star Ocean: The Divine Force Review (PS4, 2022)
Is Star Ocean on a budget better than no Star Ocean?
Sonic Frontiers Review (PS4, 2022)

Another 3D mainline Sonic game dropped. Is it the Hedgehog's long-awaited return to form? Some voices are calling it great, even a legitimate contender for game of the year. That view is far from what I thought of Sonic Frontiers.

The Evil Within 2 Review (PS4, 2017)

The Evil Within 2. It's so generic I'm having a hard time finding words to say about it. Guess I'll just try to write a straight comparison to The Evil Within (2014).

Octopath Traveler (first impression)
It's nostalgic and also kinda not
Blasphemous Review (Switch, 2019)
The metroidvania that should be just a vania
Shin Megami Tensei V Review (Switch, 2021)

It's taken me way longer to clear this game than it really should have. From very early on it always felt rather unpolished to me, but I still enjoyed it a great deal. Navigating through the Chiyoda region was pretty annoying and whatever region came before that was somewhat bland, but all in all I really enjoyed exploring the game maps. The game world overall has a great atmosphere to it. People often compare this entry to Nocturne, but I feel that Shin Megami Tensei V is it's own unique experience.

Tsukihime - A piece of blue glass moon Review (Switch, 2021)

Originally a doujin adult visual novel released near the end of the year 2000 created by less than a handful of people, Tsukihime finally witnessed the release of its professional grade remake in August 2021.
