Also, Last Surprise, level me up! I finished DQ7.
I'm making a last ditch effort to finally get through Kingdom Hearts for the club, since I'm bedridden for a few days. That way I can level up and focus on Persona 5.
I finished something! And it was DQ VII! Yay! And I also level up! Thanks for updating the list, LastSurprise!
Tangential to the current game (Persona 5) but I thought I'd post here anyway. I finally finished up Xenoblade Chronicles, over 100 hours spent (the wonders of portable gaming). Fine game but clearly constrained by the hardware. Anyway, you won't see me voting for it anymore, a little sad about that.

The end of an era! Congrats, though. I've yet to get past that wonderful hurdle of a game.
It would be perfect for a Switch remaster. The 3D character models aren't terrible but they fall apart close up. Most of the cutscenes are in engine but there are a handful of prerendered ones that give you a taste of what they could look like. Plus the 3DS screen is so small! The voice work is pretty good also. Recommended.
I believe the best way to play this game is using Dolphin. The textures look kinda crap in HD, but otherwise the game really shines.
There's no way I would have sunk however many hours into I did without it being handheld. The New 3DS version is ugly, but it's way easier to play.
It was my commute game for the last 2 months :).
Had a DISNEYWORLD tip in JAN BUT WILL catch up this weekend!

I keep forgetting that, unlike me, some people actually have lives, and do not have unlimited access to a TV
I'm literally giving up an hour of sleep a night just to join the P5 thread :).

I will do my best to update the nomination list as the week goes along.
I'd like to nominate Nier Automata.
And I'm sorry for dropping out of Persona 5 after nominating it. I just couldn't play any more after all the garbage with Catherine Full Body.
I will second both Valkyrie Profile and Nier: Automata. Both of those are in the backlog. I've played about 2 hours of Nier and like what I've played. I've attempted Valkyrie Profile at least three times, but never finished it for some reason I can't remember.
As for me, I will nominate Final Fantasy VIII. I've been looking for a reason to replay it.
I'll third Nier Automata. Really enjoyed the first game a year ago so I've been meaning to check out the sequel. I'll also nominate .hack//G.U. Vol. 1: Rebirth.
As always, my preference is anything playable on Vita/3DS. However, I'm out on Xenoblade Chronicles, finished that off recently!
I nominate Monster Hunter Stories.
I nominate Monster Hunter Stories.
Oh! That's a fun one.
All righty, here's a quick summary of what's been nominated so far:
From the previous round (no seconding needed:)
- The Legend of Heroes: Trails of Cold Steel
- Odin Sphere Leifthrasir
- The Last Remnant
- Xenoblade Chronicles
- Breath of Fire IV
Newly added:
- Valkyrie Profile (LastSurprise, seconded by bobbywatson)
- NieR: Automata (ClockworkHouse, seconded by bobbywatson and Forlorn Hope)
- hack//G.U. Vol. 1: Rebirth (nominated by Forlorn Hope)
- Monster Hunter Stories (nominated by Ted)
I like the picks so far. Some there mean I will bow out of the next cycle, while others mean I need to really focus on P5 so I can join up. All seem like good choices one way or another.
I already own BoFIV, FF8, Odin Sphere and Trails so I'd be very happy if one of them was chosen.
