That's one hell of a list. You've got absolutely killer games on there though. You're going to be busy for a while

Yup. Loved it. Hopefully it'll drop in price

Yep, if they're benched, they stay pepped.

Has anyone watched, "The Social Dilemma," on Netflix? A frightening, albeit accurate, elaboration on the detriment Social Media can have when used improperly. It truly calls for some human introspection. I loved it.

How is this?! I got so excited when I heard it was coming out but I just don't have time to rotate it into my game cycle right now. I felt the first release was a truly underrated gem. Played the hell out of it on my 360.

That's the thing, I swap in and out so regularly, with who's pepped, is there a metal monster, do I want to hit a large group of enemies or just one, etc. So I've never worried about whom is in my front four (at least for DQ11). Yep, in my switch playthrough, I kept characters pepped as often as I could.

All of this. After I completed the Switch version, I immediately began thinking that I missed out on a ton of other party options. That, in itself, adds such a fantastic amount of replay value. I also have the GBC version, which I never completed. I was thinking of doing a run now that I've played the switch version to do a compare/contrast. Not sure if that'll ever happen though. Either way, I'm in agreement that it is an excellent title and one of the best in the series. I would love for them to bring vocation changes back into XII, though I doubt that'll happen.

I’m just glad a Denizen got Nexomon. Can’t wait to hear your final thoughts.

I’m glad you ended up getting it, and even more glad you’re enjoying it. As for my monster-taming adventures: I’ve probably put a total of about 45 mins into Pokémon Emerald since my last post. Just beat all (or most) of the trainers in the desert with the constanr sandstorm. As for Digimon: Cyber Sleuth. Just.. WOW. Already, this game is head and shoulders above any Pokemon game I’ve played. Designed with far more complexity, adult-level communication and humor, and holy smokes the monster catching, evolving, and developing is just an absolute blast. And the way the story develops through, “Investigations,” what a brilliant way to break it into bite-sized Chunks. Anyway, I’m very impressed so far. Once I log about 15-20 hours, I’ll post some deeper impressions about the game in the dedicated threat I made. But I’m blown away at the moment, and can’t wait to dig in some more. ...I’m also making some slow progress in the Final Chapter of DQ Builders. Just like every other Chapter, tons of fun and very easy to get distracted.

YES!!! Congrats!

Woah! Killer database!!! @Woodus is going to love this.

Good. There is certainly no reason to rush, and plenty of reason to do the opposite.

Yup. You mentioned it was on your wishlist so I figured I would throw it out there. Also, I was chatting with some other players and one of them noted, "It plays more like Persona than Pokemon," so I'm not sure if that comment is of interest to you. I never played Persona so I can't really evaluate how accurate that assessment is.

Heck yeah it's time to beat it! Is this your first run of the game?

Awesome! Thanks!
