I’d forgotten how long and boring the cases could be. I’ve finished three episodes, but now I’m taking a break. A loooooong break. Apart from the second Investigations game, I’ve played all the Ace Attorney games to date. Some I really liked (1, 2), some I didn’t care for so much (3, AJ, Investigations). When […]
Aoi Sora no Neosphere (2) – Second half was a chore
I forced myself to finish Aoi Sora no Neosphere a few hours ago. 17 hours, 100% reconstructed, nearly every item in the game made.

Dark Cloud 2 – Great, but slightly grindy
I’m so glad I cleared my schedule just to spend time on Dark Cloud 2. In addition to the five-ish hours I’d played already, I also got about 10 hours of playing done yesterday and today. Right now I’m almost done (I think?) with chapter 3, with around 15 hours played. I’ve done as much […]
