Arti 12/08/20 9:19:01 AM #392 | I think it makes sense to just add 1 to all of the years. So it becomes 1. Beat a game released before 1991 2. Beat a game released between 1991-2000 3. Beat a game released between 2001-2010 4. Beat a game released between 2011-2020 5. Beat a game released in 2021 That seems like the easiest option. --- http://backloggery.com/articuno2001/sig.gif azuarc may not know the strength of songs in VGMC, but he conquered the guru in Game of the Decade 2!

Arti 06/15/20 10:16:22 AM #494 | Root Double -Before Crime * After Days- Xtend Edition (Vita) Definitely a very good visual novel. It doesn't surprise me that the director of this game was also the director for Ever17, as the game shares a lot of similar themes, similar pacing issues, and a final route that reveals everything going on behind the scenes. I feel that most of the Before route could be completely cut from the game and it would still work out extremely well - however the rest of the game is excellent and definitely worth a read, though the unique way of accessing certain scenes may require a guide. I initially got a normal ending which resolved nothing in the final chapter my first time through. There's still a lot of content I need to go through that was added to this version, so while I got the true ending there's still a bit more to do. --- http://backloggery.com/articuno2001/sig.gif azuarc may not know the strength of songs in VGMC, but he conquered the guru in Game of the Decade 2!

Arti 06/13/20 1:51:46 PM #489 | Atelier Shallie Plus: Alchemists of the Dusk Sea (Vita) Finally got around to seeing all the new scenes added to the ending with all the alchemists in the series at the end, which I think gives a slightly better conclusion to the game overall. I'll hold off giving a full rating about it until I see the new true ending though and that requires two playthroughs. --- http://backloggery.com/articuno2001/sig.gif azuarc may not know the strength of songs in VGMC, but he conquered the guru in Game of the Decade 2!

Arti 06/07/20 7:30:49 PM #476 | The 25th Ward: The Silver Case (PS4) The sequel to the Silver Case based on a new ward that was constructed after the events of the original, this new storyline follows three different stories based on it. Like the original game, it is best to alternate between the storylines so all the information comes in the correct order (especially with Matchmaker and Placebo, as the characters in each tend to work with each other as you proceed through the story). It continues the dark storyline that was in the original and expands on it with the new ward, and again Tokio Morishima is the best character in the game, especially in his final chapter. The platinum requires around one hundred plays of Correctness chapter 7 to choose every ending out of a humongous list, so it may be a while until I do that, but I'll finish it up eventually. --- http://backloggery.com/articuno2001/sig.gif azuarc may not know the strength of songs in VGMC, but he conquered the guru in Game of the Decade 2!

Arti 05/26/20 9:22:25 PM #459 | VA-11 HALL-A: Cyberpunk Bartender Action (Vita) Bought a physical copy of this from LRG and went through the story. Some interesting interactions with many of the characters - no real storyline to follow, but it's fine in a game like this. While not optimized very well for the Vita, the touch screen controls work very well here and I'm glad they implemented them for this. Seems like playing without a mouse or touch screen would be more annoying than anything else, so I might have to buy the Switch or PC version when the sequel comes out. --- http://backloggery.com/articuno2001/sig.gif azuarc may not know the strength of songs in VGMC, but he conquered the guru in Game of the Decade 2!

Arti 05/18/20 8:46:23 AM #430 | I feel like if it isn't what Suda51 wanted originally, he would have changed things around in the remaster and make it more of a remake, like what was done in the sequel. I also see that you did Transmitter and then Placebo in your trophy list. I feel the game flows better if you alternate between the two, as this means the Transmitter case is fresh in your mind while you go through Placebo's portion of the same case. --- http://backloggery.com/articuno2001/sig.gif azuarc may not know the strength of songs in VGMC, but he conquered the guru in Game of the Decade 2!

Arti 05/17/20 6:25:22 PM #424 | Team Sonic Racing (PS4) Fun racing game, however the fact that a lot of the game is based on your AI partners doing well doesn't make me want to play too much more of it. I did enjoy playing through the game on the normal mode, though, and still think it deserves its spot on my top 10 list from 2019. --- http://backloggery.com/articuno2001/sig.gif azuarc may not know the strength of songs in VGMC, but he conquered the guru in Game of the Decade 2!

Arti 04/23/20 1:26:14 PM #353 | STAY (Vita) The concept of helping someone through what basically amounts to a escape room puzzle is interesting, but in the end the story just doesn't ever really get good and because of this it is merely a passable VN with a few puzzles tacked on. The platinum requires another six play throughs to unlock all the endings and I'm pretty certain I'm not doing that anytime soon. --- |
