I'm playing Sea of Stars. Around 6h in, loving it so far. There's just something that clicks for me with this game.

I've been playing Ys 9, almost at the end now. I played 8 on the switch around 3 years ago on a whim and really enjoyed it. I also played Origins when it came out there, and it was fun although different. I'm late to the party but find this franchise to be a fun and light jrpg that I can just jump in and out of.

I've started playing Ys 9: Monstrum Nox. It's a quite charming action RPG. I played Ys 8 a few years back and generally found it enjoyable, so wanted to give it a shot. Not the most complex game (so far), but definitely fun!

Just got a console thru a nice sale recently!! I'm new to PS gaming (haven't played much gen games too aside from the occasional PC ports), so have been checking out PS Plus games.

I'm playing FF7R remake these days, and while I really enjoyed the original, this one I have mixed feelings for. It's got nice elements here and there, but the amount of filler is really getting to me. Plus all the times you have to walk slower.

Still, I am enjoying myself, just feels less satisfying knowing how the original went. Curious to see how Intergrade will play (might skip if it's more of the same).

Thanks for the rec! I was playing P5R on gamepass on the XSS, so will definitely look into Lost Odyssey if I can.

Fingers crossed that a community will emerge, hopefully it will be made with the increasing number of people trying this platform out.

Thanks for the recs! I've also played and enjoyed FFX, as well as Ys8 (still need to play Ys9 actually)! The other games you mentioned are familiar to me, but I've yet to try them. Then again, that was also the case for P5R until I gave it a shot recently, so maybe I'll see about trying some of those soon!

The whole debacle made me realize how much of an addiction I had to reddit (not like dysfunctional levels, but still...). App checking is definitely a weird side-effect, as is all the free time I have haha.

For now, Lemmy helps in giving a similar vibe but the calmness (for now) makes it easier to set boundaries, I think. Hope to build healthier habits this time around!
