  • Ratchet & Clank (2 had some atrocious levels, and 3 was rushed with a story only an amerikan could have written)

    Trails in the Sky (I didn’t like Trails from Zero that much, the game was easier, the quality of life was gone, and the steampunk qualities of the setting that I liked were gone as well. Also I thought the writing was weaker in general)

    Blaster Master Zero

    Azure Striker Gunvolt

    Kingdom Hearts (2 has better combat for sure, but I can’t stand the large number of cutscenes and the disney worlds)









  • It’s absolutely ableist. My ADHD makes me worse at games for sure (and also way less able to tolerate punishing design such as the Dark Souls corpse runs), also some things like tapping rapidly I just can’t do at all. The only answer gamer bros have for me is “git gud” or its even worse evolution “skill issue”.

    It really triggers the RSD sometimes but what can you do, I just play easier slop now (especially since work has crushed my soul) and have more fun. I would actually love a website that lists the bullshit in each game like infrequent checkpoints, difficulty spikes, lack of quest markers etc so I can know to avoid them.


    1. CrossCode (banger jazz fusion+prog OST, zelda-like dungeons, decent story about self-acceptance, great combat and bosses)
    2. Katamari Damacy (cozy, banger OST, wacky gameplay)
    3. ZeroRanger (GOATed OST, great aesthetic and story-gameplay integration)
    4. OFF (disturbing atmosphere and a story that’s up to interpretation, artistically brilliant imo)
    5. Xanadu Next (japanese isometric dungeon crawler similar to Diablo but without the random loot and with a different build system, the music and atmosphere is pretty good, I also thought the story was pretty decent, make sure you collect all the records if you play it)
    6. Trails in the Sky trilogy (JRPGs with a great positional battle system, banger music and very charming and well written characters. Also, the world building is great. The next game in the series lost the charm imo, but most people like it as much)
    1. Ys: The Oath in Felghana (isometric action JRPG with gameplay that is a mixture of hack&slash, bullet hell and platformer, it’s pretty unique. Also yhe music is good)
