Questions from Discord: 

• Jtlawbass: What is a quirk you have about games that could instantly make a game a no-buy? For example, with me it’s the way characters move. I was excited about Dragon Quest III Remake until I saw the way the characters walk. It looked weird so I decided to skip.🦉

What we’re playing: 

Mary: Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn, Hades, Phoenix Wright: Justice for All

John: OFF (finished), Shin Megami Tensei V Vengeance, Princess Covenant

Greg: Rivals, the game of life

Brett L: Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater (done) I’m in love with your Dead Grandmother, Dying Light The Beast
