Patchouli's words of wisdom

Patchouli's words of wisdom
9. Touhou 6: The Embodiment of Scarlet Devil (2002)
Clear time (Normal 1CC): 6h 38m
>20+ failed runs as Reimu
>switch to Marisa and instantly win
After playing a bunch of fangames and reading some of the various manga, I'm finally no longer a secondary.

6. Limbus Company: Canto 9 (2026)
Clear time: 9h 25m
Incredible stuff. Kind of a weaker ending, but makes up for it with the rest being nonstop kino. Unfortunately the Mili song doesn't really work for me this time, but the other boss themes make up for it in spades.

Wonder how long this one will be. I kind of want to tackle some of the longer games I've been putting off this year. Let's see if I actually stick to that...

Rolled credits in Angeline Era, but I already know I'm far from done. Probably my favorite Analgesic game, though I think I still prefer the story in Anodyne 2 over it

Some of the hardest picks of all time (other than Silksong)
Narrative and soundtrack in particular were really difficult to pin down, but I gotta shout out Untitled Tower for narrative since nobody else will, and Mili for OST since they're the best

63. Hades II [PC, 2025, action roguelike]

tl;dr it's fun, and better than Hades 1 in a lot of ways, but ultimately not THAT much different in terms of raw gameplay

Posting my thoughts to Backloggd now since it has a longer character limit and is probably more permanent than social media, so follow me there if you care

Finished the Alabaster Dawn demo. As expected, it was good. Combat has a really great flow to it, the graphics are a huge step up from Crosscode (which I already thought was a beautiful game), music is nice, and I'm excited to see the future dungeons/overworld traversal. Time to wait for 2+ years...

If I were to nitpick, the only real "issue" is that the game probably didn't need so many fetch quests; looking for people is fine, hunting down 25 random items drops is less fine. There were also some visibility issues on some bosses but it's not really that big a deal.

60. Hollow Knight: Silksong [PC, 2025, metroidvania]
Clear time (true end): 35h 49
Excellent game, superior to Hollow Knight in every way. Hornet feels great to control, the world is vast and expansive, and many of the bosses and enemy arenas actually put up a decent fight! Solid art and music too.

59. Dungeon Warfare III [PC, 2025, tower defense]
Clear time (all main maps Flawlessed): 11h 12m
Pretty decent tower defense game. The difficulty balance is a bit weird, but they're updating stuff every day so it makes sense. Nice game to chill with.

58.5. Hollow Knight
Clear time (two bosses): 51m
Back when I first played Hollow Knight I was a lot worse at games, so I never actually beat the Radiance or Nightmare King Grimm. Luckily, going back to beat them didn't really take any time at all. Nice fights though

a bit annoying, so I sort of just stopped instead of running around the entire map again. I've seen plenty of people talk up the difficulty, but I didn't really have any issues; the generous checkpointing makes things a lot easier. Also shoutout to instant retry on bosses instead of runbacks!!!!

58. Zexion [PC, 2025, metroidvania]
Clear time (active time): 8h 44m
Cool game! Pretty enjoyable exploration and bosses. The controls can feel a bit finnicky at times once you get all the upgrades, but I ended up getting used to it by the end. Only real negative is that endgame item cleanup is

Clear time (true end, 95%): 4h 45m
Perfectly competent metroidvania. There's nothing really bad about it, but it does nothing to stand out. Maybe a good choice if it's the first one you ever play.

it starts out fairly tactical, but it's pretty easy to get a build that just steamrolls everything (except Ending C, that was slightly hard). I'm ultimately fine with that though. The presentation could be better. I like the style of the CG/character art, but the tiling/enemy art is a bit weaker.
