Final Fantasy VII Remake is a fabulous revival.
Sakura Wars is a welcome, pleasant comeback, but a somewhat failed modernization.
Royal's release marks the perfect occasion to jump into the very best JRPG of this generation.
Its linearity and lack of freedom will disappoint, but almost every other aspect is stellar.
GRIS is exactly what gaming needs more of.
With its delightful novelties and visual improvements, Atelier Ryza would have been a must-have if only Gust had put more effort into its characters, story, and building a more interesting world in general.
A fascinating adventure that, thanks to the depth of its narrative and branching paths, can be experienced and re-experienced numerous times without losing its charm.
An intense and memorable experience.
Crippled by disappointing writing, Atelier Lulua also fails at delivering enough nostalgic content to veteran fans of the Atelier series. Little interaction with popular past characters and late, expensive DLC eventually shatter the Arland dream, and substitute characters fade in comparison. Solid gameplay & challenge otherwise
Technically shoddy, this latest Neptunia game is a short and fairly limited JRPG. But from a narrative and artistic standpoint it's an enjoyable adventure.
