What I’m Playing

Title: Etrian Odyssey Untold: The Millennium Girl
Series Title: Etrian Odyssey
System: Nintendo 3DS

Etrian Odyssey Untold: The Millennium GirlDate Started: 6/30/19

I try to play a little of this every night.  It’s a cute dungeon crawler that has more of a story as opposed to the Etrian Odyssey V: Beyond the Myth.  I’m also hoping there’s no level cap.

Well I have a new fandom.  I am ready to drop SO much money on this.  I just bought two manga volumes and I’m already looking for an Edgeworth mug.  Of course I intend to review.  I’ll probably do it when I’ve played them all.  I’m already backlogged with reviews (who’s surprised…), so I’ll probably be finished by the time I’d even get to this one.

I’ve only played the prologue so far, but I love it.  The humor in it is going to be fantastic.

I’m getting to the creepy part.  I found something out about two of the girls.  Even though the latter information hasn’t been explicitly stated yet, I recognize the blatant signs since it’s something I’ve done myself.

Title: The First Tree

The First Tree coverDate Started: 3/7/19

I don’t think anyone could deny that this is a beautiful game with a magnificent soundtrack, excellent voice acting  (provided by the creator and his spouse), and stunning visuals.  It speaks to the creator, David Wehle’s cinematic background, which may also be the reason the game suffers from some significant logistical issues, namely the jumping mechanic.  Wehle isn’t (or wasn’t) a game designer.  It’s necessary for certain progression and to gather all the collectibles for you completionists out there.  The story, while nothing new, is still heartfelt and relatable, being about loss, regret, and memory.  How the visual representation of the fox searching for her cubs intertwines with the narrator coming to terms with his grief is up for discussion and interpretation.
