Kirby does this in a lot of games. The main game is beatable by a child, but the more extra stuff you do, the harder it gets. And the secret bosses like Morpho Knight and Chaos Elfilis feel like straight out of DarkSouls or the Sans fight in Undertale.
Oh, and in order to fight them, you need to have finished everything else that the game offers and defeat all the games bosses beforehand - with limited healing options.
This. I lost 7 years to a well payed job I needed due to financial mistakes I’m still recovering from. My new job pays about 25% less but even then I’m down to 25 more month until I’m done. I don’t remember anything of those 7 years except when covid hit and I got super depressed, and that one time I was dating this girl for 3 months and I willingly made time for her, like taking a 4 hour walk or urbexing for a day. Now I’m back at doing nothing but work and housework, cook dinner and being “forced” to spend the evening watching movies… longest time in the last 2 years was a 3 month job training, felt like a whole year.
Get out, do something, get new experiences. Make time for that.
Switch 2 uses emulation to run switch 1 games. My guess is that the switch2 version is just nicer textures and a little make more fps line.
(Like that thing those evil evil hackers have been doing since 2017)
The comments are full of FF7 Rebirth.
I personally liked the story but it was an okayish gaming experience for me. To me, the FinalFantasy games were always good story wrapped in an okay game. There’s no riddles, no puzzles, just exploration and perception.
I liked it, but not in the way I liked AstroBot or Pode.
To add to that, most of the games are free but the creator asks for a dollar or two before you download, which is not required to play the game.
