Spitfire’s Backlog - Update
Hiya folks.
It’s been around 2 months since I’ve last written an update. In this time, I’ve been slowly progressing through Fairy Fencer F. I’ve been playing it rarely and in small sessions, but 2 days ago I finally beat it! For anyone curious, I got the Tiara ending.
Supposedly, the game should take about 25 hours to beat on average, but it took me almost twice that long: 47 hours. I guess I just suck at videogames..
It was a pretty fun game, and it had its moments, but I won’t be playing it again for the other endings - I didn’t like it THAT much.
The next two games I’ll be playing will be Zeno Clash 2 and Abyss Odyssey.
I’ve been waiting to play those two games for a long time now. I think ACE Team is one of the most interesting developers out there, and I can’t wait to get started on playing them.
I’m familiar with the story of the original Zeno Clash (I’ve watched an LP of it a couple of years ago), so It’s not like I’m going blind into the sequel, in case anyone was wondering.
I know Abyss Odyssey has received some pretty mixed reviews, particularly because of the controls, but I hope they’re not so bad that I can’t finish the game. What do you think?
That’s it for now. See ya in the next update! ;)
I can’t give a personal opinion on Abyss Odyssey, but I think you should give it a shot. The gaming scene (and especially Steam reviews) are sometimes guilty of a hive mind and repeat the popular opinion without going into more details. I can’t be sure if that’s the case with this game, but I think it’s always better to be the judge yourself. :) Good luck!
You’re absolutely right, and I think this extends to reviews in any medium, not just gaming.
BTW, your avatar is amazing.
