Instead of fantasy or science fiction tropes, it decide...

With Persona 5 Royal and Scramble coming out next year, the hunger for more Persona 5 will need to be sated somehow. That's where the awesome merch comes in.

The gameplay feels meaningless and filled with busywork meant to pad your time, lacking any sort of narrative incentive to push me forward or urge me to continue playing. While Dragon Quest Builders 2 isn't perfect, it has certainly surprised ...
As I've reported earlier, the Langrisser remake is coming to English markets early 2020 for PC, PS4, and Nintendo Switch, which means more strategy RPG goodness for old-school fans.
