They have the typically ordinary day-to-day of a Tokyo high schooler - attending class, after school activities and part-time jobs. But they also undertake fantastical adventures by using otherworldly powers to enter the hearts of people. Their power comes from the Persona, the Jungian concept of the “self”. The game's heroes realize that society forces people to wear masks to protect their inner vulnerabilities, and by literally ripping off their protective masks and confronting their inner selves do the heroes awaken their inner power, and use it to strive to help those in need. Ultimately, the group of Phantom Thieves seeks to change their day-to-day world to match their perception and see through the masks modern-day society wears.

NieR: Automata

Publisher: Square Enix Co., Ltd.
Platform: PlayStation 4
Genre: Action, Role-Playing (RPG), Platform
Rated: Mature
My Rating:
Release: Feb 2017
Summary: NieR: Automata is an action RPG set several thousand years after the original NieR. Living machines from another world invaded Earth and the remnants of humanity fled to the moon. Since then have been sending android units back to Earth, to fight proxy wars against the machines, until it becomes safe to return. This game follows three units from the YoRHa android series: a battle unit named 2B, a recon unit named 9S, and an older prototype unit named A2.

Battles are fought in the overworld. The active character can use a variety of different attacks, and may use one of four different weapon classes. Weapons may be switched during combat to create combo attacks. The character also has a Pod, a flying robot that launches automatic ranged attacks and can use different types of programs. As robots, the main characters may install plug-in chips in order to grant buffs and other helpful attributes. A character may have a finite number of chips equipped at once as each one requires an amount of storage, but it is possible to save different configurations and switch on the fly.

RPG elements include various quests of which many are optional and an experience based leveling system where enemies generally level up to match the player's character level. Weapons and pods can be upgraded multiple times when the needed materials have been gathered. There are also various support items and shows where items can be sold and bought. Plug-in chips can be sold or fused for a price, making them stronger but often at the cost of additional storage.

Next to the main gameplay there are many flying shooter sections often involving 'bullet hell' environments. It is also often possible to hack opponents, which is presented as a different type of shooter mini-game. The game uses a story that is told over the course of several playthroughs, sometimes retelling moments but with another protagonist, or experiencing events before or after the main story. This leads to many different types of endings, including many joke endings where the game ends prematurely. There is no multiplayer, but network connectivity allows a character to retrieve items from fallen characters in the same area or revive the character as a temporary ally. A specific ending also involves network interactivity between players.

There is a save system along with a transporter to hop quickly between locations. Just like in the original NieR it is possible to ride animals as well to get around quickly. When a character dies, the body remains at that location along with a large selection of equipped plug-in chips. The player then has one chance to retrieve the body and the chips, because another death causes the body and the chips to vanish.

Summary: Earth is ours no more.

In an era where Machines roam the land and mankind is no longer the dominant species, a young hunter named Aloy embarks on a journey to discover her destiny.

In a lush, post-apocalyptic world where nature has reclaimed the ruins of a forgotten civilization, pockets of humanity live on in primitive hunter-gatherer tribes. Their dominion over the new wilderness has been usurped by the Machines – fearsome mechanical creatures of unknown origin.

A legend in the making

Shunned by her tribe since birth, Aloy has never known a mother’s embrace or the acceptance of a community. Her only companion was Rost, the stern, impassive recluse who fostered her.

Rost taught Aloy to survive any physical hardship and to scorn comforts as weakness – but he couldn’t provide the answer to the questions which troubled her above all else: who her parents were, and why she was cast out.

Take on the role of skilled hunter Aloy as you explore a lush world inhabited by mysterious mechanized creatures in an exhilarating new Open World Action/ RPG exclusively for the PlayStation®4 System.

A Lush Post-Apocalyptic World
How have machines dominated this world, and what is their purpose? What happened to the civilization here before? Scour every corner of a realm filled with ancient relics and mysterious
buildings in order to uncover your past and unearth the many secrets of a forgotten land.

Defy Overwhelming Odds —
The foundation of combat in Horizon Zero Dawn is built upon the speed and cunning of Aloy versus the raw strength and size of the machines.

Exist Archive: The Other Side of the Sky

Publisher: Aksys Games
Platform: PlayStation 4
Genre: Role-Playing (RPG)
Rated: Teen
My Rating:
Release: Oct 2016
Summary: I will preface this by saying I'm not a stranger to JRPGs. Tri-Ace is behind this one and I am a Star Ocean fan so I was excited to give it a try. The game art looked colorful as well and that piqued my interest.

Characters and Story - It's a lot of metaphysical stuff involving life and death. Without throwing out major spoilers the story basically involves teenagers being ripped from their world and placed in another and the trials and tribulations that happen to them after that. I found the story, while not thrilling, to be the most interesting aspect of the game. The characters aren't anything to write home about although I found most of them interesting enough.

Exploration - There is an overall map where you can select destinations to travel to. Each destination has an overall quest to complete (such as fully explore the cave or get to the ground floor of the forest). When at a destination exploration in done on a 2D side-scrolling plane. While exploring you have the ability to jump (X button) and attack (circle button). There are mild platforming elements as you can jump over platforms, fall into holes etc. At first you will only be able to do a basic jump with other powers becoming available to you later. Enemies appear in your path and combat is initiated when you run into or attack them. By attacking them in the dungeon screen you can better set yourself up for combat.

Combat - This is the hurdle for me. The game will give you some very brief explanations of the basic mechanics and the general gist isn't hard to get. In combat each character is assigned a face button on the controller. When in the combat phase (one of two phases) you can press the buttons to "queue" character attacks. The limiting factor is "AP" or action points. Each attack a character uses takes action points and once you're out of those, the attack phase ends. In the defense phase enemies attack you and you have the chance to press the face buttons once again to tell your characters to guard, which just reduces the damage they take.

That's the combat in a nut-shell. Press the face buttons and actions are queued up and then carried out. The problem is the system seems so much deeper however the game doesn't make much effort to explain any of it. For my part, I played through many hours of the game just pressing the square button which just had the main character attacking multiple enemies with his sword. This doesn't seem "right" to me however the game doesn't let you know what "right" looks like and so far it has worked for me just fine.

The game mentions to you that enemies also have weaknesses which are represented by icons next to their health bar. Hitting an enemy's weakness with the proper attack gives you an increased chance at getting an item to drop from that creature (I think). The problem for me was the game never said what each weakness symbol meant so I never really knew what I should be attacking with, hence I always just pressed 'square, square, square, square, square' and attacked with Kanata (the main character) almost every time.

To explain it a little differently, imagine you and I just met and I am giving you the opportunity to drive a shiny new car. I tell you "Everything should be fine, the break and accelerator are there, the turn signal there, and the wheel moves like this." You say "OK, not too hard." I agree but also say "However! Be careful and watch the dashboard, there are many lights and they each mean something different." You of course would look at me and say "OK, but what do each of those lights mean?" To which I would say "Off you go! Have fun!" and walk away, you none the wiser as to what those lights really mean. This is what it's like playing this game. Stuff happens, and the lights are on, but you're never really sure if those lights are a sign of something good, bad or otherwise.

I tried searching through the help menu for more information but never really got any of the information I was looking for. Since I don't know if the way I am playing is right or wrong, I keep just trudging along pressing the square button to queue up the same attacks from the same character. So far it's been quite boring but the random insertion of character exposition has been just enough to keep me awake through the boredom.

Looking more into the game after the fact it appears this game plays very similarly to older games called Valkyrie Profile. I recall the names of those games but I never played them. If you happened to play and enjoy those games in the past though, it sounds like you'll enjoy this one too.

One thing I would like to mention that might help new players is to go through the menu options and select each one. The game will only display the initial tutorial screens for things when you select them (and the game will never instruct you to select them).

Overall, it's been a disappointing purchase for me (they can't all be winners though). I might be less bummed about the experience if I bought it for the current price (at the time I am writing this) of $20. I however paid the full $52 (after Amazon Prime discount) price tag. For $20 I would suggest giving it a try if you are into JRPGs. Go give some of the review content for the game on YouTube a look and see if any of it interests you. I would definitely not recommend the game for full retail price however.

My Rating:
Release: Mar 2019
Summary: I don't understand why people hate on this game; honestly maybe it's impatience or not giving the game a chance but as a One Piece fan I have enjoyed this game a ton and it only gets better the farther you get in the game (as in most adventure and exploration games). If you are a One Piece die-hard fan, you will love this game- but if you are a simple-minded hack and slash player that only wants to mash the combo button all the time, you'll get bored before you even beat 5% of the game. Give the game a chance, use the different fighting techniques that you unlock as you progress, and enjoy the unique non-canon story as you'll still see a lot of references from the main series as well as surprise characters that will turn into sick battles.

Story

Arata Mizunashi, a video game programmer, receives a notification from an email sent to him by Shina Ninomiya, a colleague of his who went missing nearly one year ago. Together, they worked to create World’s Odyssey (W.O.D.), an immersive virtual landscape powered by breathtaking, state-of-the-art technology. That is, until Shina's disappearance put a halt to production. Arata is startled to discover that Shina Ninomiya was stuck inside of “W.O.D.” the whole time. When Arata delves back into the lines of code haunting his forsaken project, he realizes that his game is now ravaged by an infestation of bugs, and that Shina is its only active player.

Arata soon learns that a nefarious force prevents him from extracting Shina out of the game. Her only way out? She must complete the game to unlock the perfect ending—an outcome with a success rate of 1%. On their journey, they encounter a slew of NPC characters that blur perceptions of humanity and A.I.-technology, setting into a motion a thrilling narrative that calls into question the differences between the virtual world and ours.

Little do they know what horrors await them on both sides of the screen...

Summary: A summer of your making in a world running out of time.

After the Kegai forced humanity to the brink of extinction, the survivors fled to the stars. Raised on a failed space station known as the ‘Hope’, high school student Nini returns to Earth to spend his summer in the rural Japanese town of Ashihara, one of humanity’s last remaining sanctuaries. Though Ashihara remains relatively untouched, the Kegai are still a threatening presence, and it is only a matter of time before they break through the divine barrier protecting the town.

Gifted with the Demon Sight, an ability that allows him to see into the ‘Underworld’ where the Kegai lurk, Nini might be humanity’s last best chance of survival. He can’t do it alone, however, and he’ll need to befriend his classmates if he has any hope of fending off this ancient threat.

In this original coming-of-age RPG, step into the life of Nini, a newly earthbound teen who arrives in the quaint Japanese town of Ashihara in August 1983. Explore the town, befriend its people, and face off against the Kegai in turn-based battles where the outcomes depend on the relationships you’ve built and the decisions you’ve made. Use Nini’s special connection to the gods to reset the world, with each loop allowing Nini and his allies to relive the 8th month over and over until they get it right…or the Kegai overcome them entirely.

With one month until the world ends, how will you spend each day?
