Dragon Quest II HD-2D Remake Now this is a video game. I assumed it would be another middling game which is the reason it got grouped together with DQ1. Now I don't know how the original was but this is easily the best of the trilogy, and I did really like DQ3. The party, the story, the game play? All top notch. At times it really reminded me of Dragon Quest XI with the way it was structured ...and some other reasons It's well worth it to do the post-game stuff and get the true ending, really good stuff. I'm part way through DQ8 3DS, maybe I can get through that before VII.

Road to Empress First game completed in 2026! This is a kind of FMV choose your own adventure/visual novel where you play as Wu Zetian, the first and only Chinese empress regnant, starting as a consort entering the palace and having to intrigue your way first to survival and then to the top. You'll definitely die a lot of times along the way though. It's a lot of fun, completely over the top in a good way. EXCEPT APPARENTLY IT'S ONLY PART 1! I haven't been got this bad by a surprise cliffhanger since Across the Spider-Verse. Still though, great game, a lot of fun. Perfectly achieves what it sets out to do, no notes. Grade: A+
