Been playing this on and off for a while now and I've gotten to a point where I really don't care anymore. Yakuza Zero is brilliant for so many reasons, it's funny, weird, and has a great story, but it's primarily because that combat loop is just so fucking solid. That game is full of problems but I'll sit through hours worth of the most pointless errands going just to beat some random guy up with a bin.
Like a Dragon is the same thing but now if you accidentally wander into someone in the street you have to slog through the most boring turn-based combat system I have ever experienced. Absolutely no fucking clue why they made this change, everything else here is great but I do not have the patience to get to see it.

They spent almost 5 years on 6 bosses and you can feel it in every frame. It's a crime that they're charging six quid for this.

Simulateously relaxing and complete horseshit, schrodinger's spyro.
I got to mother brain, dipped for obvious reasons.
Side note: looks fucking gorgeous on the Steam Deck, love me some GBA pixel art.

Not nearly as perfect as I remembered it being; lots of horseshit. Cannot imagine the misery of attempting 100%. The final boss can suck my big toe.
Very good though five stars.

Enjoyed this when the puzzles weren't trial and error horseshit, which is like a third of the game, so...

The steam deck warmup lap has been completed, now to run flight sim at max settings.

Like the 3rd time I've played through it, first time I've actually finished it. It's only 4 hours long.
Love the ideas this plays with but I just don't find the gameplay particularly fun, and I don't know why. Should be ticking every box for my dopamine addicted brain but it just doesn't. Wish it went way further than it does, (shame Fez 2 went the way of the dodos), but at least we've got Tunic now, which is just a better version of this.

Bona-fide banger
Fucking hell they weren't lying about that epilepsy warning were they?

Fantastic in so many ways and bizarrely flawed in others. A quarter of the time I hated playing it but those other three quarters were utterly brilliant. Give me five years and enough time to forget about the awful boss design and this will be up there with Obra Dinn.
