I'm probably to late for this huh, oops. Well if you can squeeze me in last minute than that's fine by me.
A new way to Review
I was thinking I might sign up for that Strawberry Review Jam and that got me thinking about how reviews on this site are structured.
Many sites give number scores for their reviews but some people on the internet are changing to different systems.
For example the youtube show GameExplain ranks there games by simply saying either they Loved it, Liked it, Disliked, or Hated it. (Thats not the exact lingo but essentially its like that.)
I wonder if a system like this has ever been considered for this site.
If I do a review I will use the score system but I feel like these number based reviews are becoming old fashioned.
I know there is an option to not put in a score but I don't think that helps the game dev much.

Terranigma will blow your mind!
Yeah I might try Soul Blazer at some point. The reason I didn't start with that one is because I've known about Illusion of Gaia for many years and I only in recent years have heard of the other games. Apparently, there's even a spiritual successor to the series on playstation called The Granstream Saga. I think that's the one anyway.

Terranigma will blow your mind!
Last year I beat Illusion of Gaia. This year I started playing Terranigma I've only just gotten to the surface world in chapter 2 but dear lord is this game already awesome. Chapter 1 of the game involved me reviving the continents of the earth. Each of the 5 dark towers I concurred resurrected a continent. So after every level you would see South America reborn, then Africa, and etc. I knew before playing that I'd be reviving the world but I didn't think that would just be the opening to the game.
But here's what really blew my mind. Before going to the surface world I remembered there was two side quests I could do, but for this topic I just want to focus on one of them. Now, when I went there I was expecting to maybe get a new piece of armor or maybe a good weapon; you know the kind of thing you expect a video game's side quest to give you.
When I finished this side quest text on screen appeared saying "On this day Polynesia was reborn."
Holy crap! I just did a side quest that revived a whole damn archipelago!
Tell me when have you done a side quest that has something like that as a reward?

Painted Heart
This was fun; I'd been wanting to play it for a while and recently had time to do so. I kinda wish there was an interactive bit when the main character is painting kinda like Jet Grind Radio, but oh well. I also feel like the elements' names should be shown in battle because although I had an easy time remembering which element was strong against another I struggled to remember which symbol meant what. But again I enjoyed the experience overall. The art is great and the battle system was cool. If I ever have time I might do a review.
