Scott Adams's Reviews
STAR WARS: Galactic Racer is a great game that has a lot of content. Racing feels amazing, and the enemies are ruthless.
DYNASTY WARRIORS 3: Complete Edition Remastered builds on the foundation of the original DYNASTY WARRIORS 3, and that foundation is as solid today as it was in 2002. It’s an amazingly good time, and once I turn the game on, I can’t stop playing.
DRAGON QUEST XI S: Echoes of an Elusive Age – Definitive Edition is still a solid game. This is a version of the game that runs well and can look great in the graphics mode.
Cupid Parasite is a fantastic Otome game. It has a lot of heart, passion, and artistic intent. The writing is hilarious and genuine.
Trails in the Sky 2nd Chapter is the Trails series at its peak. Refined gameplay, better-balanced party systems, an amazing story, and huge character depth make this a must-play title.
The Legend of Heroes: Trails from Zero / The Legend of Heroes: Trails to Azure releases are great ports of already fantastic games.
Orbitals is a fantastic game that uses its inspirations to the highest degree. The art design and aesthetic are a true triumph. Interlacing the cooperative video game genre with the themes of 80s and 90s mecha anime series is executed well.
Aggelos 2 is a great homage to the Wonderboy series and adds a new way to explore an open side-scrolling platformer by adding verticality and different realms to explore. There are some nitpicks that come with that kind of scope, but overall it is a solid experience.
BRIGANDINE ABYSS is an addictive time. You can organize a plethora of troops to accomplish a lot of goals all at once. Taking over the continent is a big swig of dopamine. It might have some edges that need to be sanded, but it is enjoyable.
Flightpath: Adventures in Venaris is a fun time and a really great execution of unique ideas in a Shoot-em-up.
BLUE REFLECTION Quartet is a four-game collection, but it is more accurate to call it four experiences. BLUE REFLECTION and BLUE REFLECTION: Second Light are full games, but the other two in the collection are more condensed ways to tell the story of that original media. It does build up to a much more definitive Second Light experience.
I had a blast with Truck-kun is Supporting me from Another World?! I had a few nitpicks with objectives and the map, but overall this was a fun game.
Final Fantasy X/X-2 HD Remaster is the definitive console experience for Final Fantasy X and Final Fantasy X-2. It includes all the goodies of the original remaster, but this time around it also adds more QoL features that make it so much easier to experience this collection.
Disgaea Mayhem is a fun time and adds a new gameplay style to the mix of Disgaea. You still work on pumping up your numbers, but in a Musou-style engine. It is a load of fun, but it is not the Disgaea Warriors many Musou lovers might be wanting.
Even so, if you loved Star Fox 64 or have never played a Star Fox game before, this remake is an easy recommendation.
Granblue Fantasy: Relink – Endless Ragnarok answers a lot of the complaints I had with the base game and adds a ton more to do in the game. If you haven’t played Granblue Fantasy: Relink before, this is the perfect time to get the game and the expansion, as it is still an amazing experience.
Wings of Bluestar is an enjoyable arcade-style shoot ’em up. If you are someone who enjoys a good, quick session of playtime, this is definitely up your alley.
Birushana: Winds of Fate does a commendable job of adding extra spicy scenes that were missing from the original Birushana game. It also does a great job of adding substance to almost every love interest from the original game.
STARBITES is a great homage to the game design of old. Great cozy grinding, customizing the mechas, and finding your favorite party members to build make it a time worth having. Though it can also feel dated to those who are looking for newer-designed games.
Neverness to Everness was a gacha game that took a lot of my time. It has a little of everything in this game. Supernatural fights, car stealing, fishing, bank heists, and everything in between. Since it is a combination of a lot of elements from other games, it doesn’t do as much as those specific games can. It is still a fun time!
