Summer 2025

So guys, I've entered a new era in my life and I've been SUUUUPER busy. In fact I haven't played video games in a month! However, I wanted to still create a post for what I had been playing in the summer months leading up to this new commitment of mine. 

I continued playing Hades, and beat the main story of the game! I've been playing consistently and got pretty far in the post-story. I'll fully beat it one day :)

MOM!

I like this painting

Chilling with Dad, instead of fighting to the death!?

Next, is a game called The Bazaar. Developed by Reynad, a former Hearthstone streamer I used to watch occasionally back in the day, and his company Tempo. It's a novel hero-based autobattler that uses items and skills to work through different encounters each "hour" and progress through battles with "ghosts" of other players builds and the end of each "day". Very addicting, the art is sublime, I love the aesthetic very upbeat fantasy, light, but still sophisticated. Got 100+ hours in fairly quickly. Only thing I don't like is that cosmetics and access to expansions early costs about $10 a month. I ain't paying for that. Still, fun game.

Mak, the immortal Alchemist

Vanessa, the Exiled Pirate Princess

Pygmalian, the jubilant and entrepenurial force

Duely, the one who stands for clanker rights

 Next, I also played Persona 3 Portable much more and have progressed a lot in the story. I really like the cohesion of the art, music, and story it's a well built game that is fun to play. I hope to beat it soon and play the other Persona games!

 

Thanks for reading, I'm unsure how much I'll be able to play with my new commitments but we'll see what the future hold :)
