A single match of Marvel Tokon will have almost as many characters in it as 2XKO will have in its whole roster at launch

2025 MEDIA THREAD: Don't really know what to expect from this year, but I'm looking forward to it nonetheless. Will anything move me to the extent that Fate and Tsukihime last year did? Who knows! But I sure hope so.

Figured out how Xenosaga 2 expects me to use the Boost mechanic to continue combos from one character to get complete Break/Air/Down sequences without having to spend several turns on a character stocking up to do it solo and realized this game is the blueprint for XC2's combat but turn-based.

Also for how slow and deliberately paced most of the game is the ending really sneaks up on you and feels pretty abrupt, I was really surprised when I found out the final boss was in fact the final boss.

Media Thread 2024 forma de Bluesky: I ain't backporting all the prior reviews I put on Twitter but I'll keep it updated to ride out the year, but I'm keeping the numbers consistent between my Twitter version and this one out of laziness. Here's the most current version of my 5x5 for reference.

Finished Xenosaga 1 earlier today (will write my review/media thread post tomorrow) and started up 2 right after and I think the internet lied to me again because I had heard on many occasions that 2 is a huge step down but it seems like the opposite, this seems good as hell so far.
