Unicorn Overlord looks very much my jam. I appreciate how Vanillaware stepped up and said "all right, if no one else is going to make another Ogre Battle we guess we'll just make our own." My only reservation (aside from, obviously, the title) is Vanillaware's house style, which, no matter how detailed, still just screams "mobile game" to me. Not sure when I'd play this thing, as I'm currently about 60% of the way through Infinite Wealth, and next in the queue is Persona 3 reload. Then, of course, there's FF7 Rebirth. This has been quite the winter for JRPG fans. I feel you on the visual style. It doesn't just look like a mobile game, it looks like a mobile game's preview. Like it's a mobile game's promo art put in motion.
I thought Octopath, still unplayed by me, looked cool. But every time I come across video of Unicorn Overlord (which, these fucking names!), it's too much. It's pretty a glance, but when you really look, everything's kind of blurry and obfuscated. It's not clean. IMO.

Having access to my PS4 again reminded me that I never played the PS4 remake of Shadow of the Colossus. I'm going to fix that.

Playing Hades for the first time. Absolutely loving it. More detailed thoughts to come, but wow is this a thirsty game.

I reinstalled Fallout 4 after the Amazon series got me interested again, and then they released a Next Gen patch that improved the graphics and performance. After installation, it auto-detected "Ultra" graphics settings for me. Yep, I forgot how GREAT a job the entire intro to this game does at setting everything up. From the intro history movie, to starting out in your town, running for the vault...I originally played at least PARTLY like I was urgently trying to find my son. Now that I know that part of the story, I'm going to relax and just putter around more. Still, even with my "rush", my first playthrough NINE YEARS AGO was apparently 135 hours. Here's a new shot from inside the power armor I promptly dropped off at Sanctuary Hills so I can continue to be a stealthy lone wanderer.
