Mageseeker is a slog that even die-hard League of Legends fans will have trouble getting through.

Fallout 76 is an underwhelming and disappointing mess, but may have the potential for greatness if Bethesda chooses to support it long-term.

I completed this game three times and I'm still left hungry and unsatisfied.

Perseverance: Part 1 feels like a rushed endeavor. It's unpolished and the characters do not feel entirely fleshed out. Yet there is just enough potential that when the game ends on a cliffhanger, I find myself slightly interested in the next part of the story.

Occasionally, Demon Gaze II can be a little fun and make you chuckle. And, while there is nothing especially wrong with the game, there really are not many highlights either. I wish could say more positive things about this game, but in all honesty, it's not one I would recommend for most JRPG fans.

Re:ZERO -Starting Life in Another World- The Prophecy of the Throne attempts to appeal to both casual visual novel fans and Re:ZERO fans but ends up disappointing both. The macabre elements that Re:ZERO fans expect are all but absent, and the result is a dime-a-dozen visual novel that even casual genre fans would gloss over. That said, the interactive gameplay elements, though shallow, are welcome, and the English dub is par excellence. A single playthrough took me about 14 hours, and there is only one ending. However, clear data unlocks some amusing hidden scenarios, so a second playthrough isn’t a total repeat. TPoT is not a bad game, and I actually enjoyed my time with it, but its compromises and a lack of focus keep it from being a good Re:ZERO game.

A simple top-down adventure game with a very perplexing narrative that unfortunately fails to deliver.

Without adding anything new to this still-budding sub-genre, justifying the investment in Gallowspire Survivors is difficult.

While it's still fun to play Tales of Arise, Beyond the Dawn does nothing to justify the high price and is generally a waste of time.

Secret of Mana is a monumental JRPG that deserves your respect—just not your time.

Redemption Reapers has a promising combat system, but the story fails to impress and the early game maps prevent the combat from truly shining.

Hooked on You has a great premise that will make it appeal to Dead by Daylight fans, but it doesn't bring much to the table to draw other dating sim fans in.

RuinsMagus is a serviceable option for JRPG fans clamoring for a JRPG in VR, but it fails to live up to the great first impression it makes.

A reworking of Metal Max Xeno doesn't get patched up enough to make life worth living in Dystokio.

The combat system of Fire Emblem: Shadow Dragon & the Blade of Light works great, but it's let down by frustrating maps and poorly presented information.

As a lite beach bash, Danganronpa S will amuse hardcore fans, but it's really just a grindy gacha in disguise with little reward other than a few laughs.
