I got a Steam Deck, so I’ve been playing a bit more now. I’m currently going back and forth between Final Fantasy II and going back to finally finish playing Umineko, so semi-JRPG for now, but mostly VN. I’m looking to gradually play through the mainline Final Fantasy games up until at least Final Fantasy IX, possibly Final Fantasy X. X was the game that actually made me take a decade long break from gaming entirely because I was so disappointed with it, so I want to give it another shot. I think part of the disappointment was that I loved IX and just wanted more of that, and that I originally traded my copy of Xenogears for a friend’s copy of X in middle school, so hopefully with the passage of time I can enjoy it. Prior to the PSX games, I’ve only ever completed the original, so there should be lots of fun to be had.

Eventually, I’ll copy over the files from my desktop that I need to be able to run the Grandia HD Remaster on it as well. That was one of my favorite games growing up, so I’m really looking forward to replaying it. Since it looks like Grandia II is playable with some tweaks as well, I guess I’ll have to get that eventually. I would be really excited if they ever went and re-released the rest of the games in the series, as I never got around to playing any past the second.
