i'm playing dragon quest monsters. game feels like a pokeman game :lol:

i'm just only 26 mins in so i need more time to see if the game is good. though games without much of a story makes me sleepy


I’ve been curious about that one Eddie. Be interested to hear how it stands up vs Pokémon.

i need at least a week before i tell you if is worthy or not.

i'm not the biggest fan of pokemon or monster hunter types of games even if they are turn based. i need a story and proper character progression in order to fully enjoy an jrpg. btw, i do own monster hunter and i fell asleep in the first 2hrs of the game. that was a waste of resources right there man. i hate it when a game doesnt meet my expectations, specially when i'm overleveled and the boss still kick my ass :lol:

Im an action game guy, so as long as the action is good, Im good.

Played Wo Long a few months back and I dont even recall what it is about. Gameplay and fighting mechanics were so good it didnt matter.

I game that I would recommend to everyone out there is definitely Cyberpunk 2077, the game has completely changed since it dropped in 2020 with all the bugs that it launched with. Phantom Liberty DLC adds another 15-20 hours of gameplay.
I cannot stress this enough, the game is a masterpiece and has a very well structured story.
Just make sure to not read any spoilers for all the different endings that it has.

You said you liked action games and this fits the description 100%.

Wemby & SGA

Honestly it's no contest.

If it's for just this one season I'd prefer to have Zo & SGA ... but you didn't offer that option.

i like the game, its pretty good much better than pokemans but the graphics are 30 fps bad and bland but if you dont care about that sort of thing then the game is just fun to play but kind of grindy too because you have to level up in order to be able to get better monsters. there's some voice acting in British accent that can sound bad for some. the dialogue feels forced and contrived and even puerile at some points. the monster designs are pretty good and btw you can name the monsters whatever name you like.

there's even autoplay and fast forward when battling with monsters. also there are a few arenas that you need to clear out just for either the story or to get some items. btw, there is some online play in this game but i havent use it since i like it as a single player game.


in a nutshell,

graphics kinda suck

gameplay (turn based) is fun but it can also feel repetitive

story is rather mediocre like any other monster games but it serves a purpose to an ending which i like

there are a few bugs in the game. you need to update it if you are playing on the
Spoiler:
switch /emulator


if you are in to pokemon type of games this maybe up your alley be warned that graphics are terrible for a modern square enix game

Thing is, I had her within an inch of her life multiple times. She would always break out some monster move to KO me. I beat her right as she was getting ready to blow my ass up again.

No doubt buddy. Will get to that one eventually. The list of games coming out is pretty insane. After an awful start, PS5 is about to blow the roof off.

After 10 separate diff runs through BG3 and role playing every type that interested me, I am waiting for the update coming September which DLC added with additional classes/races that weren't included previously.

I have my faithful every day Division 2 on PC which keeps me interested, as its almost impossible to finish end game with how much shitz you need to upgrade for endgame. 2 years into this madness and no matter how many hours I pump into this game Its the slowest grind fest ever, but its so freaking fun playing multiplayer on it. There's so much to do in the game it makes hard to get bored of it.

Game has been glitchy so far. Had to load my save a couple times already because Shadowheart is hanging out by herself or dialogue never leaves the screen.
