I recommend a play through either way! The story is a rollercoaster that balances its silliness with heart pretty well.

The gameplay might be a little more tense than you’re looking for at times, but Kena: Bridge of Spirits gives me summertime vibes.

For something with chiller gameplay, maybe Yakuza Like a Dragon? (I haven’t played Infinite Wealth yet, but the setting also seems promising.)

Sea of Stars is a pretty fun, especially if you’re a fan of old school turn based jrpgs. Pretty decent story too.

I tend to prefer video essay and discussion formatted content, usually focusing on older RPGs and survival horror that I might not ever get around to. Lately, I’ve been watching Grimbeard, ThorHighHeels, MandaloreGaming, RagnarRox, and tangomushi.
