5th Annual NWR Four on Four
M.K.Ultra:
I felt the same way about Balatro from the sidelines, knowing it was just a card game and wondering why it was being considered GOTY. It is little comforting to hear at least one person concur with that sentiment that has played the game. I guess it really depends on if you hooked by that gameplay loop.
For Okami, this was the Okami HD version right?
That was my first playthrough and I think it did still have framerate issues. It is a really slow start and much longer than it needed to be. Also, the celestial brush is a great idea, but was poorly executed. I thought the variety of sigils to actually draw was small and not diverse enough. Of course, adding more would have caused more problems with the recognition, but having them be more varied would have alleviated that issue to some degree. I am also on a wait and see position with the sequel.

Well, looks like my post may have been inadvertently deleted with all the Russian spam posts. Oh well.

Whoops. My apologies. I got a little click happy. It's back now.

Much appreciated. That one took a while to write. :P

Alright, rounding the bend with three on three. I defeated Sigma (again) in the fight for everlasting peace with Mega Man X6 on Switch. This was played via the Mega Man X Legacy Collection 2 and the game initially came out on Playstation.
Overall I had some fun with this game and while it has some challenging boss fights the checkpoints and saves are quite generous. In all the other Mega Man games I can remember, respawning does not refill your weapon gauges and continuing (after running out of lives) puts you back at the level select. Here you essentially have infinite lives since deaths and continues seem to do the same thing. The one difference is a continue screen gives you the chance to exit the level.
With the challenging boss fights I did rely on techniques from videos online and the armor suits. I think playing this without the special armor or online help would have just been frustrating. When looking up hints online I found a lot of people thinking the game had problems and even saying it was the worst entry in the series. While I liked X4 and X5 more, I might still rank this over X2 or X3, but it has been a while since I played those. Also, I still haven't played X7 or X8 yet.
I have already rolled credits on WarioWare, but I will see if I can 100% complete it by the end of the month and report back either way.
