Still Playing Atelier Ryza: Ever Darkness & the Secret Hideout as my primary game. I think I should be in the later half of the story, not sure though. Pretty much just playing this now, so should be able to finish it soon-ish.
One exception though, with all the Donkey Kong drops, I started Donkey Kong Country 2 (NSO SNES) again. And I don’t know what issue I had last time, but this time I was able to clear the first area pretty easily. Died couple of times in last level, but other than that it was pretty simple. I didn’t find all the secrets though. Only 2 DK tokens, though got most of the KONG letters, not sure about other secrets, but I am sure I missed some.
Stopped playing at first level of the second area / world. The lava one. Only started it on impulse and may play it a bit here or there, but will return to it seriously only after finishing Atelier Ryza. I really enjoyed playing it though, hope difficulty won’t spike too much as the game progresses.
What about all of you? What have you been playing?
I have interest in ‘giant robot media’, but the only one I have ever watched is Tengen Toppa Gurren Laggan, don’t know anything about any other one. It is on my list to properly get into it one day.
Ah right so THAT’S why X was on my to-play list. I keep forgetting what’s on which game.
The Akurasu Wiki is a good reference for SRW info, including series list.
TTGL is peak (mecha) fiction so thats a great one to have watched. Very much in the “super robot” camp that this series is named after, as opposed to “real robots” like Gundam, where the mecha are more akin to military machines than giant superheroes and get treated as such. SRW does a good job of mixing the vibes and themes of the two.
