Still making my rounds through Final Fantasy IX. I've only just recently started the third disc portion.

I still love this game dearly, but I really wish the Treno card tournament wasn't a thing.

Theatrhythm Final Fantasy: Curtain Call

I'm only missing Sephiroth now. Depending on how I do today, I might unlock him tomorrow.

I agree with that. Would have preferred that it used a continuation of FFVIII's card game, mostly because unlike FFIX's game, that one didn't depend on RNG. Was it really necessary that tournament?

Naruto: Ultimate Ninja

Hey, @FinalArcadia was right! The QTEs during special moves are fun. Then again, you don't suffer a big penalty for failing them and you can use QTEs to reduce the damage if the opponent hits you with a special. The only thing I can say is that characters are quiet or loud with no in-between (Naruto is extremely loud, while I could barely hear Kakashi), and seeing how that didn't happen in Clash of Ninja I wonder what happened there.

Dissidia 012 Final Fantasy

I'll try to get back to this game since I have been playing Theatrhythm a lot. I hope I still know how to play the game.

Slowly playing Splatoon 2 again, planning to get all of the Amiibo gear and filling their slots.

Since I have unlocked everyone, I'm just playing more casually. Now I'm going to bring everyone to Lv. 99 (so far, 1/71.)

I decided it will be better if I level everyone to 60 before I tackle Confessions of the Creator. I'm kinda scared of Feral Chaos since I have never battled him.

Final Fantasy IX (Switch) - After 20+ in-game hours of ignoring the Chocobo sidequest, I decided to give it another go and finally got the water Chocobo upgrade.

The remaster's fast-forward feature helps a lot with this mini-game, but I really don't like it still. I can't imagine doing this on the PS original. Chocobo Hot and Cold and Tetra Master are two things I really don't like about this game.

Now it's time to train Jecht, since I'm doing them in order of their games. Hopefully I can be as annoying to my opponent as Jecht is when fighting against him. Does somebody know if Feral Chaos is harder than normal Chaos, or is it easier since Feral Chaos is a normal character? Also, I find it weird that the game has "Roses of May" instead of "Something to Protect".

Just wait till you get to Ozma (bonus points if you didn't do the Friendly Monsters sidequest). Or just any optional boss. I don't know why they are that hard.

Space Empires V: Cretirk VI has fallen, and with it a system I would have liked to take about fifty turns ago. But it's done now, and the entirety of Battlefleet Green (Siege) can move on to Uphada while the mainline fleet clears out of the debris left behind. The future of Green is in question now - as far as the siege fleets are concerned, one can be sent on campaign in Gergan, while the rest can warp past Eridani into the last Abiddon Enclave stronghold. But as for the mainline fleet, I'm wondering whether it would be wiser to decommission half of it. The fleet base at Port Lindsay won't be needed for anything other than an emergency now anyway.

Elsewhere on the borders with the Sheward Sovereignty I'm arming fast. The first reserve squadron of Saker-class light cruisers is ready, with a second being assembled in the yards of Lyrae and Sephandris. I've commissioned two Thunderbird-class stealth dreadnoughts at Gloriana and Pellucida, ready for when the T-Series freighters are ready to reopen warp points.

To challenge players who have already beat the main game.

I probably won't be going after those, but they're better than these mini-games for sure...

Yeah, Ozma's hax are real. I think I challenged it once, then walked away with a big "nope, I'm not doing that."
He only makes 1 attack a turn and it's way harder than Necron, the final boss, who makes 4 of these a turn. At least the moogle that lives there warns you before you try to fight it and get your ass kicked.

Since the update dropped today I decided to beat Arcade Mode with everyone again today. Canabalt Skyline is an annoying stage to fight in, since there are those annoying planes that can knock out you if they send you the wrong way, but the Well Caverns are alright. I still don't know how to use Bullet Kin (the new character in the update), and I have to get used to the fact that they added melee moves now.

Time to train Shantotto. I hope I don't hate her as much as I think I will. Not because I can't use her, but because her personality rubs me the wrong way.

Oh man... I want indie pogo...
Bullet Kin and Shovel Knight are the main reasons for it...
