Nier:Reincarnation shutting down after 3 short years

Although it was painfully inevitable it looks like Nier Reincarnation will finally shut down after 3 years. I feel like this blog has become some kind of collection of “Games I’ve played that shut down” but since I didn’t blog much about Nier Reincarnation I guess it’s a little different from the rest.

RPG Review: Star Ocean -The Divine Force-

Aaaaaaaaaaanyway, as usual spoilers ahoy, especially given the nature of how this epilogue plays out.

Guest Review: Taisho Alice: Tokyo Drift

As I mentioned before, I grabbed all the rest of the Taisho Alice games when they got released before the Steam Summer sale. Buuuuuuuuuuuuut then we got sidetracked by Real Games For Real Gamers (TM) for the last few months (and trying to finish up our final prep before the upcoming FFXIV expansion) so this game has been sitting in limbo since then. Anyway, like I keep mentioning each one of these releases covers another set of storylines, this time for Snow White and Wizard and since this game is like 5 years old now I’ll spoil away.
