Maybe for the Switch successor?

OtterX96d ago

That would be great. I doubt the Switch successor will come this year, probably Spring of '25 (bc of rumors). But that would line up if they made an announcement on Bravely Default III in the Fall. Maybe a cross-platform title?

Nyxus96d ago (Edited 96d ago )

Yeah it was originally planned for this year but it seems to have been moved to 2025. I wonder when they will announce it though. Anyway I still need to play Bravely II (do already own it).

OtterX96d ago

@Nyxus You know, I still only ever played the demo of Bravely Default II, and loved it. It was just one of those things where I was playing so many other things at the time it came out. Next time I see it on sale I'll pick it up. I'm hardcore on the Final Fantasy Pixel Remasters at the moment. I'm really loving them, particularly bc it's the first time that the classics have included actual orchestrated music.

Nyxus96d ago

I'm really hoping the Switch successor is backwards compatible, because I have quite a backlog for the system, including several RPGs like Bravely II, Octopath Traveler I and II and Fire Emblem Engage.

ZeekQuattro96d ago

Nice. I really enjoyed Bravely Default 2. Surprised they didn't port 1 and Bravely Second at some point.

FinalFantasyFanatic95d ago

I'm surprised that didn't happen either, seems like an obvious choice, but then again, I hear Bravely Default 2 didn't do very well.

Lover Pretend review - ChristCenteredGamer

CCG writes - "Though some of the routes can be formulaic (lie about relationship, end up falling in love, get into a fight, start a real relationship), I did enjoy the overall story. I was rooting for Chiyuki to find the identity of her father and was not disappointed. If you’re a fan of otome visual novels, Lover Pretend is worth checking out."

damn. i thought Dolemen would be a Dolemite game.

Christopher526d ago

He couldn't think of one more bad game to put instead of NFS Unbound? He even says it's not bad. Must take a lot of energy to come up with lists.

Knushwood Butt526d ago

I haven't played it but I saw another site award it as best driving game of 2022, so polarizing?

As for my list, I don't recall playing a single bad game in 2022.

Christopher526d ago

I would put Saints Row below NFS Unbound and I didn't dislike Saints Row. But, that's just me.

metabolicfrolic526d ago (Edited 526d ago )

They have Redout 2 on here because it was too hard. Git gud. That game is so fun!

KillBill525d ago

CrossfireX
Redout 2
Puzzle Adventure: Ghost Town
Nerf: Superblast
Gungrave G.O.R.E.
Need For Speed Unbound

Dishonorable Mentions:
Dying Light 2: Stay Human
Dolemen
Scorn

And yet not a single mention of Babylon's Fall...? *cringe*
