JRPGs that still need localization in 2020

After writing my “10th Anniversary” post, I scrolled through my list of posts and noticed a couple of Japanese games I really enjoyed but that still aren’t available in English (AFAIK). With the advent of Kickstarter and Steam and other similar platforms, I thought for sure that more old games would have been licensed and […]

La Corda d’Oro replay + thoughts on restarting a musical instrument

I’m suffering from “choice paralysis” right now. I have so many games I’d like to play that I’m running away and not playing any of them. Instead I’m retreading old ground with La Corda d’Oro, a musical otome game I first played in 2014. You can read my initial thoughts on the gameplay and all […]
