Which ones of these are all turn based?

The ones that aren't are they like hack and slash ARPGs?

Both of the Like a Dragon ones are turn based, the rest are basically beat-em-ups like a modern Final Fight/Streets of Rage(inside battles).

Surprised a Rangers player didn't get booked for that, going by the ref today.

Not sure if it's the same part but I just beat a boss as Teen Girl Squad...

I beat Scarlett and that was a hard fight! But now Cloud is just MURDERING people. Blood splatter and all.

 

Yeah for me it’s the villains of Yakuza 0 that absolutely put the game a little higher. I love Like a Dragon but I felt like the villains outside of the main one just weren’t up to par with what was on offer in 0. 

Well that and Goro Majima.

What is your favourite Yakuza game and why is it Yakuza 0?

What is everyone's deck strategy? Mine is to get Midgarsomar on the board and just kill all units (mine and enemies) without remorse. 

Chocobo and Dio, plus a few boosting cards. I also have King Tonberry and the Death Rider(that destroys 4 squares) and a couple of archdragons.

Cactuar Crush with Aerith sucks!

Also, I'm being a fool and doing most of the open area locations. Holy crap does it seem like Gongaga has a lot.

It burned me out eventually, away for work for two weeks now so can hopefully get back on it. Although I should have done what you did and spread my gaming a bit.

I guess playing what you're enjoying the most matters but it still feels weird to me that I have both the new Final Fantasy and Alan Wake 2 sitting here and yet I'm playing Resident Evil 2 remake instead  

I had to take a break from Rebirth and was playing the Uncharted Collection. 😂

Newcastle 1 vs. 1 West Ham (Sat 12.30pm, TNT)
Bournemouth 1 vs. 0 Everton (Sat 3pm)
Sheff Utd 0 vs. 3 Fulham (Sat 3pm)
Liverpool 4 vs. 0 Brighton (Sun 2pm, Sky)
Man City 2 vs. 2 Arsenal (Sun 4.30pm, Sky)

I'm on the end of Chapter 9 and only just realised you can turn on a mini-map?!

How I feel when you're on a mission to save the planet and Chadley pipes in with his 'You've stalled on World Intel lately'.

Just so it doesn't look like I hate the game, the character development and how they all play in battle is absolutely fantastic.

It just feels like everything I wanted the story/characters to be in the original as a kid. Also the fact they've made Cait Sith fun to use deserves some praise too.

Chapter 9

  Hide contents

There were some things out there early in reviews that the open world sometimes doesn't feel as grand as it could and while the Corel desert was drab it was also a desert. Gongaga however kinda stinks. Just so windy and hard to navigate, but with the exact same quests and collectibles as the other regions. Minor quibbles as most of this stuff can be skipped and in a small dose (as in, going through it just for the story) it won't feel particularly annoying.

But the magic of the Junon Region feels a distant memory.

 

Chadley is genuinely putting me off doing more side stuff, I wince every time I hear that sound.

Gold Saucer was fantastic though!

There's been a couple of those sprinkled in where I'm just like "okay this is annoyingly hard". 

On a side note the volume of mini games in this one is incredible. You could spend dozens of hours working though them all.

If what I read is correct, a 100% on one run cannot be done for what it's worth.

 

Yeah I just can't believe they brought the workout game back though, did anyone like it before?

Think it was you who pointed out before but definitely feeling like a kid playing this. It's not even the big wide open areas, just the nods to the original and then areas that are almost the exact same as the original.

Chapter 4

It appears the rumours of Dani Alves death are untrue, shame.

Least they’re replacing him with Neil Lennon for a bit more comedy. Dave Cormack is a lunatic, the Aberdeen fans can’t stand Lennon.

Wish there was a side quest to throw Chadley down a volcano.

One thing I'm absolutely loving is how they've managed to find all of the small things from FF7 in to the main quests/side quests. Just done a couple of side things around Junon so far but did 100% of The Grasslands.

Fantastic result away to Benfica tonight!

Ok it turns out reading an article that actually tells you how to play Queen's Blood instead of just trying to power through it based on what you think can make it a lot less frustrating to play.

 

Oops  

Definitely feels like the most important part is to fill the board then drop your big cards at the end. Although I'm only on Chapter 2 so I'm sure it'll change.

Yeah I'm completely sold on Queen's Blood, like Triple Triad mixed with Gwent.
