Nier Replicant is a piece of shit and I regret playing it until Ending C. Should have called it quits after B at most and youtubed the rest.

we really should at some pointBan Hektor.

Yeah, having a PC I can chuck into one of my bag’s pockets, take to work and play indie games at lunch gets so much of my money.All those ARM based handhelds will be super interesting once there is as simple way to get something like Steam OS on there with FEX to enable arbitrary PC games, in addition to just emulators to run on there.
I think Octopath 2 is worth the playtime, but I get it won’t be for everyone and I broadly agree that old school JRPGs shouldn’t be pushing past 30 hours, with exception.Played around 26 hours of Octopath Traveler 2 but I don't know if I'll finish it.
I got used to the detached nature of the characters/stories, but I feel the grind is a bit much.
Considering that the story chapter are like, 30 minutes? The rest is going around grinding to get the equipment/level for the next chapter.
And since I read this is a 60 hours affair, I feel like 40 of those are grinding levels.
Also I feel like the experience is little, in particular when power-leveling low characters.
Like, a difference of 30+ levels, and at the end of the combat you gain 1 level and half. And this is only going to slow down when they start getting more and more levels.
I feel this kind of old-style jrpgs should be in the 30-40 hours ballpark.
Problem is still that not all gpu drivers are created equally. Some have incomplete Vulkan support or are binary blobs. Turnip mesa drivers solve most issues but that sadly does not support everything. I am still looking forward to something like the Odin 2 though.All those ARM based handhelds will be super interesting once there is as simple way to get something like Steam OS on there with FEX to enable arbitrary PC games, in addition to just emulators to run on there.

it plays pretty much everything up until like PS2/WiiThis might be the PS1/2/Portable/Vita device of my dreams.
Fab that it plays the Sega systems too.

I’ve got an Analogue Pocket + Dock for systems before the PS1, so personally I’m more jazzed about this thing’s ability to play Saturn and PS1 onwards.it plays pretty much everything up until like PS2/Wii
