This was supposed to be my final post-game review of Sorcery Saga, but… eh… maybe I should just ahead and finish it, since I’ve made it to the final dungeon after many ups and downs and one very painful freeze. It’s not a bad game either, it’s just not exciting. Like, at all. I’ve been carrying the same sword and shield since the beginning of the game and now have so many plus marks on them that I can one-shot 90% of the regular enemies. At the same time I don’t see why I should nerf myself just to enjoy the game – nor do I see any evidence that things would be more exciting if I did shed all my super-gear. So I just want to finish it.
But not now. Right now I want to play something exciting. Which reminded me that I had unfinished business with Xenoblade 2. Which I am moderately excited to be getting back to, especially after the tiny little boxed-in dungeons of Atelier Totori and the same-old corridors of Sorcery Saga. I want a BIG map where I can roam and roam! Oh freedom, oh freedom, oh freedom over me~~~~~
I’m having a little problem loading XC2, though. Every time I turn the Switch on, I find myself playing Picross S. Curse you, level 60!!! Picross 3D Switch when…
Yeah anyway, that’s what the situation is. Sorcery Saga semi-dropped, Xenoblade Chronicles 2 queued up, Picross S actually being played. See you someday with updates on at least one of these.
So probably not a better game than Shiren then?
It would be good for easing newbies into the world of rogue-likes. The idea of losing everything when you die is pretty intimidating, after all.
But no, it’s not that good. It’s probably the worst rogue-like I’ve tried because the challenge level is like zero.
