Shin Megami Tensei V – Finally picking up after 12 hours (early story spoilers)

I’ve heard of slow starts, but Shin Megami Tensei V was ridiculous. 10+ hours wandering in a boring wasteland with a bad map before you’re finally given some semblance of a story is just too much.

I give up on Persona Q: Shadow of the Labyrinth

I give up on Persona Q: Shadow of the Labyrinth because I can’t get into it. I’ve been struggling for months, but it’s such a chore.

For the first time since I started, I had to think about my party composition (mainly ditching weaklings and switching Torri for Feene) and run around the 12th floor looking for Mabusagitta enemies […]
