In July I finished:

  • Trails in the Sky the 3rd . This was very good for the most part, but I prefered the story structure of 1 and 2. So much backstory for Kevin, by the end of the game your understanding of him has changed completely. Looking forward to starting a new arc with Trails from Zero next.
  • Nier Replicant . I returned to this about 8 months after reaching ending A to get the other endings. I like the world and story but the gameplay to get all of the endings was very repetitive.
  • Nier Automata . The gameplay of this one was much more enjoyable and varied than Nier Replicant, but I think the story was less interesting, though there were some nice twists. I was hoping for the characters from Replicant to play a more important role, but it was cool to see the same locations in the future.

I'm currently playing:

  • Atelier Meruru . I started this so long ago and it's been a struggle to get through it. Something about it makes it so I don't feel like playing it very often, but I enjoy it when I do. I'm focussing on it now to hopefully finish it in the next few days.

After that I'm not fully sure but I'm considering:

  • SaGa Frontier . I've only done one character's story so far (Red) so am curious to go back and try another character.
  • Romancing SaGa Minstrel Song . Never played this.
  • Tales of Symphonia . I started this ages ago and lost interest about 12 hours in when I had to go to another ranch. I didn't really like the combat system, but the world and characters were nice. I might go back and give it another chance.
  • Octopath Traveler . Another game which I lost interest in. I'm at about 10 hours and I think I've done the first story part for about 6 of the characters. The stories and characters are just a bit basic, and it annoys me how fights seem to take such a long time, even using the weaknesses against normal mobs, and then boss fights go on for like 15 minutes or something.
  • Disgaea . Never played any of this series.
  • Final Fantasy XII The Zodiac Age . The last mainline (non-MMO) Final Fantasy game I haven't played, excluding 16 since it's so recent.
  • Grandia . Played this as a kid and have nostalgia for it. I think I got stuck on a boss fight back then and didn't come anywhere close to finishing it. I used to run from every mob so I was always underleveled.
