She should really have been a party member in 3. Wish she'd have joined back up instead of Ashley.

Bait her into attacking first so Shepard can claim it was self defense.

Does she get a decent amount of content in ME3? At least there's always Citadel for more scenes too.

I might romance Ashley in ME1 first then Miranda, just to annoy Ashley more.

Finally enticed by Atelier Thighza-- er, Ryza, eh? It's off to horny jail with you

(Like I can talk, I'm a Xenoblade 2 enjoyer. )

Here's hoping you agree with Sobou on Ryza.

Yeah Battalion Wars was soft of a strange mix of light stratagy / 3rd person shooter enspired by AW I thinkl the original did pretty well as it got a sequel on Wii! but after that was there big focus on Fire Emblem so we didn't really get anything else after that

P5 Royal is on the of the best game I've ever played for sure. The changes to the original story, overall quality of life and the new chapter are all phenomenal so i'm sure you'll love every second when you get around to it

New recruit/fresh meat for Salmon Run!

YESSSSSS. NOW YOU'RE A SQUID TOO. ONE OF USSSSSS.

I can't remember if I ever did Miranda's romance so I might do that this time.

He's pretty funny. At least he's more entertaining than Mr Bland & Boring Kaidan.

Miranda and Vega are the superior human companions.

I did a full playthrough once with Vega and was surprised at how likeable he actually is.

Can't wait to never have to use Kaiden or Ashley on a full playthrough. If only I could Virmire both of them.

Yeah Monas wooden ladle caught me so off guard, I must of been using it for a good hour before I noticed and had a double take!

I feel like the story really! picked up after the 3rd Jail in Strikers and it was already fantastic! Everything to do with Akane, Zenkichi, Sophie, Jail 4s tone and the set up for the final act was wonderfully done! I’ll be carrying on with it tomorrow so it looks like we’ll be finish around the same time too at this point

Haha! I’m glad you managed to give it a good clean and finish it up! AW2 was such a fantastic sequel but dang was it hard. You have any plans to try the DS games at all or even Battalion Wars?

I think you did the right move playing Strikers before Royal, just give it a few months and Royal will hit as hard as the original when you play through it. Honestly makes an already 10/10 game even better!

You had to do nearly every sidequest on each playthrough for them didn't you? So basically at least 3 full playthroughs. I wouldn't mind them reducing it to just "take at least 2 party members through the majority of the game" so you can just do all content with any team for it and don't have to repeat it with all of them.

It sounds like some like "kill so many enemies" will carry over across all three games instead of just been for one which is good. Hope they get rid of those from the first game where you had to take every party member through most of the game, those were annoying.

Hopefully climbing those mountains will be a lot less painful.

Sounds like they've brought the combat a lot more in line with 2/3 as well. I wonder if Insanity will be harder? New achievement lists too!

This sounds like some really good changes they've made and added, glad it's more than just a graphics touch up!

Hey thought I'd stop by and see how you're finding Person 5 Strikers at the moment?

After a slow start due to work I finally got into the groove and have been powering through it over the easter weekend! (Just started jail No4) it's fantastic!

Highlights are definitely the music, story, team and Monas Giant wooden ladle for me.


Also bit late but congrats on beating Persona 5 and Advance Wars 2: Black Hole Rising 2 pretty tought games I have to say especialy AW

I tried it in 2017 and just quit after like 4-5 hours. Don't remember much of it. But I guess I'm more inclined to play through a game I don't like if there's an audience. gf isn't much of a gamer, but likes to spectate. So last year we did Mass Effect "co-op" where she made all the decisions and I handled the gameplay. We'll be doing the same thing here. Plus I'm sure they've dropped a few patches to it since 2017, so... maybe this time will be more fun.

I say hi to you too
:3

Yep, although OB64 and Match of the Black Queen have the same core battle system from what I've seen. Managed to grab 64 a few years ago. MotBQ is also available on PSX. It might actually be cheaper to get that copy over the original SNES version. I think the SNES version is the pricey one. I actually have seen the PSX copy around but it was 100$ CAN. That said, this was at a retro shop that tends to overprice their games, but it was also a few years ago too. The used gaming market can be so brutal.

I forget her name but she's the Dalish blood mage who says she definitely knows what she's doing............. IM BEING SO NICE!!!!!!!! AND YOU'RE SUS!!!!!!!
