Here we are again (again): the thread where we discuss the games we are playing in 2025

I finished Paranormasight. It started super strong but ended in a (bunch of) whimper(s) for me. The beginning chapters with all the curse happenings and lore building set my mine ablaze. I like the characters, Mio is the best. The late night setting feels spooky and dangerous.

But then… comes the day time… where curses can’t be activate… It’s still fun to chase down several lines of murder cases past and present but I felt the whole thing got neutered without the curse power. Most of the curses are neutralized by just talking during the day time. Deflating. When the curses finally get activated again, there are only a couple of curse actions and game ends in few different endings. Overall it just lacks the viciousness that it initially suggested and I craved. Some of the endings do end in grisly mass murders (described in text) but those endings are just side plot endings and not satisfying. I like the school girls plot as it feels like Famicom Detective Club. I had to look up how to get the main ending and the main mystery is revealed in meekest tacked on way and the whole thing ended up being a big oop lol nvm.… and… I enjoyed the game.

Famicom Detective Club Part II The Girl Who Stands Behind sfc is still my goty 2025.

I just loaded Metal Slader Glory sfc translation to my vita for my sleepy time game. Let’s see how it goes.
