Guess what I'm playing? Here's a hint. It's starts with a Y and ends in ooka-Laylee.

How is it? I keep hearing that it's quite underwhelming, but I tend to not trust masses of people screaming on the internet.
Guys, this is getting creepy. Can we talk about cannibalism instead?

While it's not as good as Banjo-Kazooie or Tooie, I highly doubt that's even possible with the sheer, ungodly amount of nostalgia I have for those games. I will say that the worlds (I say "worlds" when I've only been in the first one so far) are a little too big for the amount of stuff there is to do. There's huge amounts of empty space between setpieces that contain most of the actual content, which is especially annoying as the Talon Trot equivalent is tied to stamina meter. It's by no means a deal-breaker, but it is just a tad annoying.

I'm 51 hours in and at September. This point is a bit slow after August (which was just plain depressing), but I am enjoying the game, regardless.

I just completed Yooka-Laylee 100%. I have to say, that was thoroughly enjoyable.

Yeah, just wait until you get to Futaba. Atlus made one of the most depressing things I've seen in a game with her.

Well, even if the name ain't on the box, it's still Shin Megami Tensei.  If there weren't depression and horror in equal amounts, folks would cry foul.

Fair point. Also, I must point out a disclaimer that this is only the second time I've gotten deep into a Shin Megami Tensei game. The other time being Tokyo Mirage Sessions, which, as I said earlier, is a lot lighter and fluffier than the rest of the series (ironic considering that Fire Emblem is about war and often features romance subplots involving incest).

I really need to play more of Persona 4, as well.

Yes. Yes you do. It is so damn good. There's a reason I've put 76 hours into it so far.
