Never got around to playing Final Fantasy IV back in the days because I didn't have an SNES growing up. I actually never played / beat one until VIII, which I loved so i went back and played all the favs but somehow never got around to this one - but i'm enjoying the heck out of it now!
Love the story and a shed a tiny tear for the twin mage sacrifice

I want whatever this is lol. Top 10 FF moments here.

If anyone has been playing Risk of Rain 2 in early access, or is looking at getting the game. The 1.0 release is Aug 11. They just announced a pre-order for the soundtrack of the game, which IMO is fantastic! Risk of Rain 2 (Original Soundtrack) by Chris Christodoulou

Anyone else backing Eiyuden Chronicles, which looks incredible?

I loved the Suikoden games and I hadn't heard of this... Ugh, Kickstarter will bankrupt me...

Analogue Pocket goes up for pre-order today. Really want to snag one, but I'm worried that it'll bring me down a Game Boy game rabbit hole that I won't be able to afford. Analogue Pocket

Welp, looks like I need not be tempted. First round of pre-orders sold out super quickly.

yeah, I heard it sold out in 15 mins, there were site issues, and they instantly started selling for double on the secondary market... sounds just like buying limited edition vinyl.

Finally bought a Switch.
What games do I need?

Mario Odyssey, Smash, Animal Crossing, Bug Fables, Golf Story, Paper Mario (haven't played it yet, but I've watched some gameplay and it looks pretty solid overall). In general, the 1st party titles are all really solid, and the exclusive indies that I've played are great. Pokemon got a lot of hate, and I do have some issues with it, but at the same time I'm having a lot of fun overall. There's also a ton of 3rd party titles, so if there's any you don't have, scoop 'em up!

Almost forgot, if you don't have Xbox or buy PC games from the windows store, you can get Cuphead and Ori and the Blind forest for switch.

Cuphead is on PS4 now too!

Cuphead is on PS4 now too!

And Tesla! But that console is prohibitively expensive.

I didn't know that, I'm glad to see everyone can experience it!

definitely Mario Odyssey. but really it kind of depends on the type of games you like.

Paper Mario has been catching a bit of slack for its battle system and lack of experience system.

I got Golf Story a little while ago while it was on sale but haven't got around to playing it. my backlog is nuts with: Golf Story, What The Golf, Wonderful 101, Deadly Premonition 1, Outlast 1 and 2, Duke Nukem, Elliot Quest, Blood and Guts Bundle, Conduct Together, Pac-Man Champion Edition 2 Plus, Defunct, and Ninjala (which I may just never start at this point)... and now I'm eyeballing Doom 3 and/or Doom 64 since they're both currently on sale, but looking at my backlog I think I don't need anything more at this point.

I'm finishing up Astral Chain which has been pretty fun and much longer than I was expecting.

Honestly just play Zelda first. It's going to take a while and any of these other recs (as good as they are) will distract from the best game of the past 5 years.

Hey, that's not God of War.

Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle is great if you feel like an srpg

 

[BattleFlag]

For those of you that have PS Plus, Fall Guys is free this month and it is great fun and no I didn't spend hours playing it yesterday what are you on about?

Adding to that, if you've never played an srpg, it's a great introduction to the genre!
