May 2023 Edition - Rayman
Rayman launched an empire of cartoonish platformers, became one of Ubisoft's first unofficial mascots, and spawned a race of parasites so vile, they even threatened the Mushroom Kingdom. The hand-drawn hero made up for a lack of a body with excellent animations, psychadelic level design, and an incredible amount of detail to distract you from some brutal platforming and bosses. Originally intended to be a Jaguar exclusive, the first Rayman adventure fell onto the scene in 1995 for the PlayStation, Saturn, and PC, eventually being ported to a variety of handhelds as the horsepower became available. Beat Rayman or any of its ports to earn the Rayman badge: {imgt}https://i.imgur.com/... 89 66{imgt} |
April 2023 Edition - Golden Sun
Golden Sun was published by Nintendo in 2001, shortly after the launch of the Game Boy Advance. Calling back to the best RPGs of the 16-bit era, it was at the time one of the largest RPGs to ever launch for a handheld. The game is remembered years later for its unique magic system which uses spells not just for battle but for navigating the world and solving puzzles. Beat Golden Sun to earn the Isaac badge: {imgt}https://i.imgur.com/... 80 80{imgt} |
March 2023 Edition - Virtua Fighter
Virtua Fighter released in arcades in 1993 and is widely-considered the first 3D fighting game ever. Its character designs and fighting mechanics have gone on to inspire numerous other fighting games that followed. Sega developed home ports of the game for its Saturn and 32X consoles, and followed up with a Virtua Fighter Remix re-release that improved the graphics.

Shining is a Sega role-playing game franchise that originated back in 1991 on the Sega Genesis & Mega Drive. Over the years, the games have adopted different modalities and mechanics - including turn-based RPG, strategy, and dungeon crawler - though many games share common character threads and a fantasy aesthetic.

I am a tiny bit familiar with the series from my Saturn days and am not a huge RPG fan generally, so taking a shot could be fun. Looks like the shortest 3 could be the 2x Souls titles on the or Wisdom on the with Final Conflict on the not being much longer.
If you're not looking to emulate, the original title is on the mini.

I'm likely either going to play Shining in the Darkness because it's the first in the series, or one of the Gaiden games so I can play it on a portable.
Back to FF6...
There's a lot more information on the game now than there was 20 years ago, and it means I'm actually using Gau regularly for the early parts of the game. He's a freakin' powerhouse.

Back 25+ years ago, I spent a few hours learning and experimenting with rages. Sure, I had the strategy guide, but all it tells me is the name of the specials from the rages. (This IS useful for Gau to teach Strago…)
That said, I wasn't without my mistakes. This one time…
…I was in Cyan's dream, where your party's locked. At the boss, I didn’t have anyone with X-Zone, and the Esper teaching it was on someone outside the party. I had to fight it as intended. To also extend this, Doom agave was also killed properly.
And in the fanatics' tower…
…I once locked them the boss to a weakness of earth. Faster to rasp him to death at that point.

Back 25+ years ago, I spent a few hours learning and experimenting with rages. Sure, I had the strategy guide, but all it tells me is the name of the specials from the rages. (This IS useful for Gau to teach Strago…)
That said, I wasn't without my mistakes. This one time…
…I was in Cyan's dream, where your party's locked. At the boss, I didn’t have anyone with X-Zone, and the Esper teaching it was on someone outside the party. I had to fight it as intended. To also extend this, Doom agave was also killed properly.
And in the fanatics' tower…

Any tips on things to not skip or miss out on? I'm gonna start it up soon. I know some characters are missable like Shadow and Gau and remember nothing on how to get them.

Gau is not missable. His abilities come from monsters, and some of those monsters are missable, but the character itself is part of the main plot.
Shadow's behavior and ties to the plot are really complicated, so you may want to find a guide that lays it out plainly for you.
There are a handful of optional characters of varying functionality, but they're all in the second half of the game and are skippable, but not missable. Pretty sure you can just go to their hiding spot at any point after them becoming available and have them jump aboard.

I just learned the main woman’s backstory, and now I’m told to attack the Empire in the east. Where specifically should I go?
Scratch that, I have to spend time in Narshe.

I'm about to hit the Opera House, and I won't be able to play until next Monday most likely, so I'm also not going to finish it this month, but I'm going to stick with it. Really enjoying myself.

That octopus is bad news.

Meh, he's just misunderstood.
Well, the little girl (Sejess in my file) just made him self-conscious. This is going in a weird direction.

Holy cow, do I hate the floating continent. Getting Shadow back has been more of a curse than a blessing, as his health and defense are so poor. The enemy variety is horrid and the landscape is confusing, with only one save point (so far) at the very beginning. The cavalcade of boss fights leading up to it didn't help, either. Here's hoping the game eases up a bit after this.
