20. Beat an action game
Gravity Rush 2 So uh this game was a bit of a mess. I liked the first one a lot as a cute little game with unique gameplay. This one felt really hit and miss though. There was a ton to like, but I also feel like there were some major flaws. Especially in the pacing and gameplay variety, but I definitely need some more time to dwell on it. --- ...

I was going to wait on this one but I won't be able to so...moving FF8 and FF12 to allow:
50-52. Beat three games in a series Final Fantasy VIII Remastered Final Fantasy XII: The Zodiac Age Final Fantasy X HD Remaster For FFX, this was a 100% run, which I've never done before until now. The grind was real! I was working on FFX-2 100% to get the full platinum, but unfortunately for some reason the game crashes every 20 minutes without fail. Not sure why it never happened with the first game, but as it is now it's impossible to finish. I'll give it another go when I eventually get a Series X if it's still on Game Pass by then, but for now I'm moving on. --- Save in the name of true love ~Project 1000~ ... Copied to Clipboard!

25. Beat a game with horror as a central theme
The Evil Within A reviewer I follow is a massive fan of The Evil Within 2, so I thought I'd try the original. I was pretty disappointed, sadly. The writing was pretty bad, interesting setups here and there but there's no good payoff and nothing comes together. Like all the stuff we learn about the main character just... doesn't even matter, he's pretty unimportant to the actual plot. Maybe I was expecting too much. The characters are pretty bland overall, there's some cool atmosphere in spots but the game never takes advantage of its strengths. By the last act the game completely abandons any concept of horror and fully becomes a generic zombie shooter that feels like it's from the mid '00s rather than 2014. It's not a bad game or anything, I guess I just expected more. Probably won't bother with the sequel. A shame! --- Slowly becoming a Final Fantasy aficionado. Just beat: Final Fantasy IX! ...

Returnal My game of the year so far! ...Out of the three non-remake/rerelease games I've played this year, one of which I just moved to the under 70 metacritic category. Still, I enjoyed it a lot. The gameplay was about what I expected, aside from being easier than I had heard (I think they may have changed some things in patches,) but it was a lot more compelling narratively than I expected. I still need to get a true ending, though, I think. 34/52 --- Our eyes were removed For our own safety ... Copied to Clipboard!

Little Misfortune Got this in one of KCF's code giveaways (thanks for always doing those!) I enjoyed the developer's previous game (Fran Bow) quite a bit. This one is similar in some ways, although unfortunately I preferred Fran Bow in every aspect. Still, it was an enjoyable playthrough. I'm surprised I could also put this in the <70 Metacritic slot if I needed to. It deserved much better than the 57(!) it got. 35/52 --- Our eyes were removed For our own safety ...

3. Beat a game released between 2001-2010???
Nine Hours, Nine Persons, Nine Doors Not sure where to put this, the spreadsheet splits the decades into different years than the first post does. And it came out in Japan in 09 but the west in 10. 32. Beat a game with a non-white lead Slime Rancher Fun game, even if it's a little rough around the edges and the platforming isn't great. Didn't feel super polished. I was disappointed how little there was to find by exploring the pretty simple environments with the jetpack. And the framerate collapses when you have a lot of slimes on screen. Fun ranching times though! Except for the Boom Slimes, they just never behaved for me. --- Slowly becoming a Final Fantasy aficionado. ... Copied to Clipboard!

Record of Lodoss War -Deedlit in Wonder Labyrinth- The most Symphony of the Night looking game I've played since Symphony of the Night. It does enough with some of its own gameplay systems to differentiate itself, though, and it feels very good to control. A bit too short, and a bit too easy not to have a hard mode or any postgame stuff, but overall a very solid metroidvania. 36/52 --- Our eyes were removed For our own safety ... Copied to Clipboard!

Metroid: Zero Mission Not only does it start with the first letter of my username, but there rest is in there too! Never played Metroid growing up but Hollow Knight got me into Metroidvanias. I liked it up until Chozodia which was kinda meh. Sadly, I think that's the extras they added, so maybe they should have just gone for a 1:1 remake.

Okami Been meaning to play this one for so long, and thankfully it lived up to my expectations. What a great game! It's a shame they haven't done more with the franchise (I will look into Okamiden), but man I had a great time with this. There's couple of things they could iron out- I played the Wii version so the motion controls were a bit off sometimes- but I would say this might be better than any Zelda from around this period. --- Slowly becoming a Final Fantasy aficionado. ...
