I must say, your "You got a Quest!" blurb is amazing.

I love it! I remember From the New World was a bit of a divisive game, due to how much it deviated from the original story and characters. I personally really appreciate the game, because it's still Shadow Hearts at its core. I like that it gives us a look into a whole different side of the world, while keeping that "alternate version of reality" theme, this time taking place in America during the Prohibition era during the 1920s. The horror elements are toned way down from past games, but it's still there to an extent; you still see some pretty grotesque enemy designs here and there. The character roster and plot as a whole is also just batshit insane, (fuckin' Al Capone is a character) and that's another reason why I love it, haha. If you're a Shadow Hearts fan, it's worth!

Same, man .. I started playing Ara Fell for that reason as well.. it's a pretty good RPGMaker game sofar

Octopath Traveller is pretty great.. got sidetracked after playing for a while though.. I'll have to revisit it at some point

Love your profile description dude lmao, very creative

Nice! I'll probably be on tomorrow night - finishing up the Stormblood expansion currently - so I'll add you if you're online at that time. I main Dragoon but have Dark Knight, White Mage, Bard, and Summoner (Scholar too, I guess, but I don't use it) up in the 60s as well. I'd be happy to adventure alongside you as needed for Stormblood (or anything prior to that, though it looks like you're finishing up Heavensward).
