Topic	Exdeath Plays Every Game in the GotD 2020 Contest Part 2 (ft FO:NV, Ghost Trick)
Evillordexdeath 01/04/21 5:18:14 PM #105:	ctesjbuvf posted... Out of curiosity, what other 8 games did you originally decide to leave out? The list was as follows: Borderlands 2 Diablo III Final Fantasy XIV Dota 2 Hearthstone Destiny Overwatch Splatoon 2 Xenoblade 2 Fate/Grand Order Most of which are games I've tried before and know just aren't for me. The only ones I haven't played are FFXIV, Xenoblade 2, and Fate/Grand Order. I'm really not into MMOs and I think "gacha" mechanics in games are the worst, so I'm especially resentful toward XC2 for including them in a singleplayer RPG. - I finished Ghost Trick. I won't recap the rest of the plot, if only to save myself some trouble. I recommend this one. Like I said before, it's a well designed puzzle game with a good difficulty curve. The puzzles where Missile starts getting involved became a little overwhelming for me, I guess. The very first one you do with him actually gave me more trouble than any other part of the game. Still, I never once needed to look up a guide while playing this game, which is a testament to how intuitive the puzzles are. The story is pretty good. All the characters are likable and it's quite elegant as a mystery story. Everything comes together neatly and it has an intricate plot with a lot of surprising interconnected parts. It's very engaging and does a great job making you want to play more and find out what's going on. I'm just not sure how I feel about some of the reveals. The answers to things like Sissel's true identity feel a little underwhelming. And I guess I wish it was a little more depressing. The ending kind of works out with everyone going on to have perfect lives with all their problems solved, which removes a certain complexity. For example Sissel had to kill the two assassins to save Lynne earlier on, but that's kind of undone by the ending. I want to take some time to think it over, so my last write-up on this game won't come until tomorrow. Definitely check this one out if you don't mind story-heavy games, though. It would probably have a shot at being my retroactive Game of the Year if 2011 weren't so stacked. --- I'm playing every game from GotD 2020!
