Jeff and I recently finished our playthrough of Tales of Arise, just in time for the 1 year anniversary of the game’s release. Overall, I thought the game was fine, not one of my favorites of the series for sure. I do think the lack of multiplayer contributes to that. After watching Jeff play through…

Guild Wars 2: Strawberries & Biscuits
What is time? 10 years ago, I started my adventures off in Tyria with the launch of Guild Wars 2. I remember that first week of playing with my friends and trying to make our way through the story. I started off as a hunter but quickly shuffled to guardian which is when I fell…
Yakuza Like a Dragon: Chilled Noodle Lunch Box
Last week was Summer Games Done Quick and I could not stop watching all of the amazing speedruns. I was extremely excited to see Froob’s run of Yakuza: Like a Dragon being shared with the world during the event. This run can be extremely RNG heavy and I’m happy that the game decided to play…
Tales of Arise: Roast Chicken
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…
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…
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…
NEO: The World Ends With You: Salty Lemon Ramen
Jeff just finished his play through of NEO: The World Ends With You. I caught a lot of the story as he was playing but for sure missed a lot of the call back from the first game. This is a series that I’ve mostly absorbed by listening to Jeff talk about the first game…
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…
