I know the combat is tight and the art direction is wonderful, but I think looking back on HLD some of the luster has worn off. Still a beautiful and challenging experience.

The best story Supergiant has told, wrapped into the best sports game ever made. Beautiful and heartbreaking, and also sports

One of the pinnacles of the roguelike genre. I keep coming back to it, of course, but I doubt I will ever finish it.

Played and beat in about 10 hours on the day of release. Incredible sendoff to one of my favorite games of all time. Celeste is so, so important to me and it was a pure joy to revisit it like this.

Finished main story, and partway through Frozen Wilds

Sphere grid is among the most innovative and delightfully customizable RPG leveling systems, and having access to the entire party in every battle is refreshing and kept me thinking. By the end though, it became fairly easy to steamroll even some endgame bosses, thanks to just enough grinding in the midgame.

Game came used without the code for X-2 :'(

~70% through, fun to revisit the classic on a newer system

An absolute masterclass of roguelikes. Hard to say anything that hasn't been said already.
