All about Cold_

I did the thing.

Favourite game: Basically perfect

Favourite Series

I'm not actually that much of a series guy, I generally gravitate to a variety of games. But Fire emblem, for a series with about five billion faults and maybe 1 actually truly amazing game, keeps pulling me back in.
Guilty Gear: Strive
Guilty Gear: Strive
Favourite soundtrack

Basically a stand in for the whole series, seeing as strive has most of it's music. From the xrd/strive hype as shit vocal tracks to XX's wonderful, wonderful soundtrack, Guilty gear takes the cake.
Gravity Rush 2

Favourite Protagonist:

Kat is so cute.

Favourite Villain

Can i count "fleet of bizzare mechanical fish battleships" as my favourite villain?
The House in Fata Morgana

Best story.

Dont want to spoil too much, but play it. Wonderful story told beautifully.

Haven't played but want to

One of these days, i'll get a crack of chunithm and set up a wack setup at home with a way too expensive controller and not play it nearly as much as i should, yet probably love it.

Game you love people hate

This game gets a lot of shit. It's really good though :(
Warcraft III: The Frozen Throne
Warcraft III: The Frozen Throne
You hate but everyone loves

It's shite. And arthas isnt nearly as interesting a character as 10 year old you thought he was.
Muramasa: The Demon Blade
Muramasa: The Demon Blade
Favourite Art style

Just vanillaware in general, honestly. Muramasa is probably their best work but there's not that much between it, 13 sentinels, dragons crown and odin sphere.
Metal Gear Solid 2: Substance
Metal Gear Solid 2: Substance
Favourite Ending

What could I say that hasn't been before. Both the very last moments of the game and the whole sequence leading up to it are a perfect capstone on what's come before it, and are truly, truly special.
ESP Ra.De.

Favourite boss fight

Ms Garra is basically the perfect danmaku boss fight, a boss fight so fucking good it basically birthed a whole subgenre. Hard as shit but amazing.
Final Fantasy VII
Final Fantasy VII
Childhood game

It wasn't one i initially played much myself, but my family fully got caught up in the FF7 mania of the late 90s, and some of my most vivid gaming memories are me and my sisters sitting on our parent's bed, watching my Dad slowly, but surely, get through final fantasy VII, and later, FFX.

Relaxing game

:CatJAM: to some beats and vibe for a bit. Sure it can get hard as shit but who cares.
Battle Garegga Rev.2016
Battle Garegga Rev.2016
Stressful game

Honestly, i can kinda vibe with this one too thanks to impeccable aesthetic and music, but Garegga is also a eldrich nightmare of an STG. Also was close in contention for best ending.

Dragon blaze and other fast-bullet shmups are in close contention for this.

Game i keep coming back to

I will 1cc you, one day...
Arknights

Guilty pleasure

It's a gacha. It has to be this entry, however good it is.
Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Siege
Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Siege
Lots of hours played.

Frankly, i've killed the R6S bug now, but for a long time i put an embarassing amount of hours into it. It's a good game, but i'm also kinda trying to be done with long-form multiplayer stuff with no end like this these days.
