Re: Games played 2024! Stake your claim!
Finished Trails of Cold Steel II. Liked it better than the first game as there was very little annoying school stuff to deal with. Stakes felt a bit higher, and my experience with the first game was a big help in my battle strategy so the combat was more fun. LIke the first game, I did have to "Weaken and Retry" a few of the bosses. But I don't feel too bad about it - some of the bosses require very specific quartz configurations to stand a good chance, and I'm trying to get through these without consulting a guide every five minutes.
I thought I'd be burned out on the series by now, but I found myself starting Trails of Cold Steel III this morning and enjoying it very much. It's taking a little getting used to as they overhauled the UI from the first two games, but I think once I get accustomed it's going to be a nice improvement.

Finished Trails in the Sky: The 3rd. Overall, the story was interesting, and I still like the large cast of characters (even the additions). I didn't like the general dungeon crawl format of the game compared to the more normal narrative style of the first two.
It's a good sign when I tempted to play the next one right away. But when I do that, I usually get bogged down in the middle stages of the next game, and end up enjoying it less. So since I'm at the end of the first trilogy, I think I'm going to move on to something else. Right now, it's a toss-up between Eiyuden - Hundred Heroes or Unicorn Overlord (which i just picked up on PS5 on sale). Also a smaller change I hit up a smaller scale RPG from the emulated library. An early Dragon Quest or FF.
That and MLB:the Show, since I ditched OOTP and it's Perfect Team stuff.
And who knows what I'll spend time on with summer vacation starting in a couple weeks. Should be fun.
