For my final completed game of 2025!

Entry #11: Fire Emblem: Three Houses

I couldn't help but do another run, this time it was with the Blue Lions. I ended up marrying Catherine.

This run was separated by MONTHS in three different intervals.

Super EXCITED for Fortune's Weave!

Entry #10: Pokémon Legends Z-A

Best Pokémon game on Switch. It was a really fun experience. I wish there was more environmental variety since many areas feel samey, but for a huge city, they did a decent job.

Team MZ consisting of the MC, Lida and Naveen was amazing.

8 / 10 🌊

Entry #09: Hyrule Warriors: Age of Imprisonment

I really enjoyed this game. I actually 100%'d it. I went back to the first free update but I haven't gone back for the 2nd one.

Zelda, Calamo, Raphica, and Rauru were my most used characters.

The Ancient Tree Stump 💔

Entry #08: Sonic Racing Crossworlds

Another racing game. Honestly I enjoyed it more than MKW. The speed and the rival character interactions made it really fun.

The festivals are basically like their own version of the Splatoon Splatfests. I like the concept but not the series.

Entry #07: Super Mario RPG

I was a fan of the OG, but this was so much better. I loved the updated artsyle and the added battle mechanics. I haven't bothered with the extra bosses but I did complete the main story.

People say they want Geno in Smash... I want Mallow.

9 / 10 ☁️

Entry #06: Mario Kart World

Enter Nintendo Switch 2!!

Mechanically, this game was and is better than MK8D. However, after beating all the Cups, I don't know if I'll go back for all the collectables.

I love the costumes!
Where is Paratroopa??

It's hard to rate a racing game.

Entry #05: Fire Emblem Awakening

What a great entry in the series. I can see how this game saved the franchise's future.

The Pair-Up mechanic was neat and the concept of time travel children was interesting.

I ended up with Robin & Cordelia with Morgan and Severa.

8.5 / 10

Entry #04: Pokémon Sword

Shield was my game upon release, so this time I got to enjoy a few Sword exclusives. This was my team for this run.

I still found the story kinda bland and the side characters a little lacking.

I did enjoy the spectacle of the gym fights.

7.5 / 10

Entry #03: The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword HD

It's in my Top 5 LoZ games. It started out kinda slow for my liking, but it picked up at the 2nd dungeon.

I really ended up liking Groose and Impa as recurring characters. Fi was a nice companion. Ghirahim was unhinged.

8 / 10

Entry #02: Octopath Traveler 2

AMAZING.
The individual character stories are great but that climax linking everything together... 🤯.

Castti, Agnea, Hikari, and Partitio were my main crew mirroring Alfyn, Primrose, Olberic, and Tressa.

The music was sex to the ear.

9.5 / 10

While, two of the girls were dealing with ✨trauma✨ here is Partitio just being a good dude. He sees a great business opportunity and is happy to oblige. We'll see who else he can find.

The theme that plays in Cape Cold and Winterbloom, Snowswept Town is really soothing. It feels bittersweet.

Throné: Chapter 2

Damn this girl has some trauma with "Father". She realized that he's a few steps ahead of her. I know this dude is a top dog of a deadly gang but damn... the grooming. He sucks.

Blacksnakes and Snowhares... very interesting names chosen for gangs.

Definitely. It's fantastic. I know you started with Partitio. He's a great character.
