I have a list of games that I keep that pertain to upcoming releases I know I'll buy day one. 80% of them are in limbo with little to know news or are still heavily in development. Because of this, I have been looking to more game I've passed on the past year or so, however, it hasn't been a super productive venture. I am lacking the mindset to finish games I only have slight interest in, thus I bought many games and finished few - which bugs me, but It can't be helped at this point. SO, with that in mind, I'm pretty much forcing myself to only look at games that I know I'll finish, but I don't necessarily want them presently. Right now said games are;
- Xenoblade Chronicles Definitive Edition
- Pokemon Mystery Dungeon DX
- Trials of Mana
- Snack World: The Dungeon Crawl Gold
- Bug Fables: The Everlasting Sapling
They all have gameplay I enjoy or have pleasing art styles or are remakes of games I've played before. With Xenoblade, I'm honestly very mixed towards it due to my first romp with it on 3DS ended with me not liking it, BUT, I enjoyed the second game enough to put almost 300 hours into it, so I am more than willing to give it a second chance at this point (I want... moar xenoblades....). With Pokemon, it's a remake of a game I played to death in elementary school (i'm talking multiple playthroughs, probs 200+ hours overall), so I'm not over the moon about it, but I love PMD as a series and I want to support it. Trials of Mana - I want it, I do, just not right now. Maybe once I get through my backlog. Snack World was a game I REALLY wanted back when it first came out in Japan, but it took forever to get over here + they killed the NFC toys that went with it (I imported some of them!) so i'm 'meh' about it, but I'm also a huge sucker for any game that lets your create your own character - so i'll pick it up eventually. With Bug Fables, it's a homage to the Paper Mario series and I've been following it's development for awhile now, but I'm just not in the mood for it atm, maybe later.
The only other game i'm wavering on is Summer Pockets, a KEY visual novel that i'm pretty much guaranteed to like (I have a big bias towards the company - have never hated anything they've put out), but I'm a little burnt out on Visual Novels as a whole right now.
