Finally got around to playing Ni No Kuni last night, and it does start out very slow. A lot of the time I just kept thinking, "I wish Studio Ghibli would have made this into a movie instead of animating a game". But it is a good RPG, so I definitely think it's a great game. I just don't have that much patience for RPGs these days.

I just started the game, but I think it's kind of a bummer that they took away the freedom of moving around, the way Portable is laid out reminds me more of a visual novel.

Can't tell you if that's a good thing or bad thing yet, as I'm in the early stages of the game.

That's why I got FES. By the way...they took out the Animated cutscenes in portable.

Yeah, that's why I said it reminded me more of a visual novel.

Still, it's neat playing as a female protagonist.

Just beat the second chapter of unwound future.

He could be, it's been ages since I last played Persona 3 so I'm not sure yet.

Anyways I finally finished all the linear stuff…the visual novel aspect of the things outside Tartarus is taking a little bit of getting use too, but it's still as fun as I remember it.

The graphics seems to have taken a huge downgrade from what I remmeber, but I guess that's just due to the hardware limitations of the PSP.

I made it, got Coventry into the Premier League! And then...half my contracts ran out so I've been slowly repopulating my team and honestly I've added so many new quality players I barely recognise my team.

Yeah, the PSP is kind of a PS2- Heck, I'd say Kingdom Hearts Birth By Sleep pushed the system to it's limits, since I remember sometimes running into lag with it.

Well before I knew it, half of my evening vanished while playing Persona 3 portable soooooo yeah.

I named my char Minato Arashi if anyone is wondering, and she's now a member of the tennis club.

So far, I like how cheerful and spunky the female MC's lines are, it's a real shame they didn't do this with P4 Golden.

Brought Shovel Knight today and so far I've been enjoying it alot.

There's some NES elements there like the difficulty, plus some modern ones too like auto saving which make playing the game easier for me since I was never a Zelda master.

One thing I wish to bring up is the soundtrack. You find notes in the stages and when you bring them to the bard he'll trade them for gold and you can listen to the game's songs whenever you want. It's not a traditional songtest but given this is meant to be a fantasy game I'll let it slide since Manami Matsumae composed the game's music tracks.

I've failed both Shield Knight parts and I'm worried I'm on my way to the bad ending; though I did beat three Boss Knights so far.
