DWIII was and is still amazing with a great customizable party, a good story, an excellent world, and as the GBC version... MONSTER MEDALS! I beat it once way back in the day, and farmed MONSTER MEDALS while watching competitive Starcraft matches a decade ago. Took me over a year to finally play through and beat this game due to a number of personal issues:

1. I wouldn't go past a boss until I got its medal, with the exception of base Orochi because of that damn item drop. This would lead to tons of ten-minute replays where I'd just get stuck in a loop.
2. Playing on a Game Boy Color with faulty power meant I could only play during the day and near a plug, and not move or do anything else lest the wire come easily loose and reset the progress.
3. MONSTER MEDALS. Kept wanting to just get EVERYTHING despite being at the last boss, and knowing I likely wasn't going to do the Bonus Dungeon anytime soon.

Still an amazing game though, despite noticing I have a lot of problems which... we'll talk about again very quickly.

Cat Quest - Pretty fun.

Tales of Zestiria is... it's a good game. Not as good as Berseria, but it has its charms. Like Berseria, I got stymied by wanting to do everything before finishing up, even knowing none of it matters because items and levels don't carry over into New Game Plus. Spent most of the game doing as much in Chaos as I could, and fighting most bosses in Hard or Normal if I got frustrated. I can see now why there are lots of endgame build guides because I can't imagine the final gauntlet of boss fights on Chaos unless you're solid at everything. Part of me would enjoy playing this again.

Dragon Quest VI - A lot of fun. Going to miss having a good game to play at work during downtime. Had some enjoyment with my own sidecanon while playing. I was surprised by how much the game catered to my silliness.
