It sure has been a year again, eh? This was an interesting year in games, and there were some fantastic surprises, some important rereleases or remakes, and several games with really strong narratives.1 I feel like this list isn’t truly surprising given that it is ME we’re talking about here, but it was still a lot of fun to play some great and oftentimes impactful games in this dumpster fire of a year. Check out the podcast here and Jared’s write up here.
Anyway, let’s get this party started! There will be spoilers behind the cut!
It’s Christmas! That means Jared and I are back with our annual Christmas episode. To celebrate, we watched the best episode of Persona 4 The Golden Animation where a huge series of misunderstandings leads to a lot of girls questioning their feelings for Yu, Naoto thinking she is going to get murdered, and Yu’s Christmas party for the Investigation Team in jeopardy.

We’re finally back with otome!! This week, I get to talk about Olympia Soirée, which exists in a world with a rigid color caste system. We chat about Japanese mythology, which dudes I liked, and how this game is the sauciest otome that I’ve played (that doesn’t suck).
Heed the content warnings at the beginning!
