Playing Paper Mario ! Finished Chapter 2, just started Chapter 3. I think with this speed, it's going to take me 5-6 more weeks to finish the game. πŸ˜€

What about all of you? What have you been playing?

What did you think of Cassette Beasts? I watched a play through of that one not long ago with mixed reaction. But, I'm curious as to how others received it and how they felt about playing through it.

Loved it. I'm not usually a fan of monster capture games, only managed to finish one Pokemon game (Alpha Sapphire) and even then I only did the bare mimum to see the ending because I was getting really bored.

This game however got me completely addicted, played it non-stop for 5 days to see the ending, and keep coming back for short play sections hunting Rogue Fusions or trying to complete the bestiary.

Ah! That's interesting. I'm playing Alpha Sapphire right now. I love Pokemon, but tend toward the newer gens because they have more story.

Older games, or games that mimic older styles, can be pretty hit and miss for me as a result, even though I can appreciate a lot of the work and complexity put into them from an outside view (watching someone else play).

Revisiting the anime got me on a Hoenn kick, so here we are.

If you like indie games, and if you enjoy puzzles and story, have you ever tried Ib? It's a short indie psychological horror game that is all puzzles (no fighting), but really interesting.

Don't think I've heard of that game before, will take a look.
