Tales of Arise is a very different game from the other “Tales of” games I’ve played over the years. The “Tales of” series is how Jeff and I became friends in college. We played a lot of Tales of Symphonia together. Throughout the years, we’ve played each of the games together with friends coming over…
Video Game Recipe
Animal Crossing: Carrot Scones
Animal Crossing: New Horizons is my ultimate chill out game. I’ll just turn the game on and zone out of all the tasks I had going on that day. I’ll hop around different islands, collect random resources, work on farming up some vegetables, or just spend a long time fishing. Fishing is one of my…
Lost Judgment: Higashi’s Tea
Last week, RGG Studios released the Kaito Files DLC for Lost Judgment. Jeff and I immediately jumped in and thoroughly enjoyed our time with it. This little bonus story was extremely enjoyable and I’m so happy we got to see a bit more of Kaito and his backstory. As always, I will avoid talking about…
Guild Wars 2: Crispy Fish Pancakes
These past few weeks, all I’ve been doing with my free time is fishing in Guild Wars 2. I have to catch every fish and complete all the achievements for one of the best titles in the game, Cod Swimming Amongst Mere Minnows. When the expansion launched I knew I would be spending a lot…
Spiritfarer: Peach Cobbler
Last year, Jeff and I spent a few days playing Spiritfarer and we loved it. This game was such a delight to play together. The first day we played, we found ourselves just chilling on the couch, gathering a bunch of materials, making all the recipes, and getting hit by all the feels. We basically…
Yakuza Like A Dragon: Hell Stew
Last month, Sega released the Yakuza: Like a Dragon soundtrack and I have been listening to the album on repeat since it was released. I have probably listened to War Maker at least 100 times at this point. While listening, I was reminded of all the amazing karaoke songs featured in the game. Karaoke has…
Guild Wars 2: Meatball Dinner
I can’t believe End of Dragons is out next week! Jeff and I have been spending some time playing through the most recent content to remember where the story left off. I’m not too sure which of my characters will be going through the new story first. It’ll either be my Necromancer or Guardian. Either…
Stardew Valley: Mango Sticky Rice
Stardew Valley is a comfort game that I always find myself coming back to. Jeff has recently been poking at me to start up a new farm and it is only a matter of time before I cave in. We both love just starting a new game and seeing how quickly we can make our…
Final Fantasy VII: Remake: Midgar Special
Time for a confession: I never played the original Final Fantasy VII. That is probably because I never owned a Playstation 1 growing up. On top of that, I can count the Final Fantasy games I’ve completed on one hand. There are a lot of RPGs to pick from and for some reason, Final Fantasy…
Animal Crossing New Horizons: Minestrone Soup
Last month, Nintendo released an update for Animal Crossing New Horizons that introduced more seeds for farming as well as actual cooking. You can now walk up to a kitchen stove and begin creating delicious dishes. The recipes in the game are quite simple, most requiring only a few items to put together. The hard…
