I'm just here to say how happy I am this brother gamer found a lady in his life who shares in his interests. Happy for you, man. Wish you both continued happiness in your lives.
You guys have helped reignite my love for gaming. I really thought I didnt enjoy them anymore, but I've been watching a lot of your videos, and I gotta say thank you. I feel so much more connected to my childhood now, and it has been lovely. Thank you, a thousand times, thank you.
I ordered a copy straightaway after playing the demo. It feels like "my kind" of game, enjoyable and that more-ish loop. Some features feel a bit basic - but it's a small game. I agree with all your comments! 👍
As a woman the same age as Kim who plays the SAME games, I’ve never wanted to be best friends with someone more ever in my life. Love you Johnny but I only watch for Kim tbh. I trust her reviews just because of how much I’ve seen her love the exact same games I do. If I hear she loves it then I buy it.
Why is no one talking about this? This looks fun! This one completely went under my radar. I know what I'll be playing at work on break over the next week or two ;)
Great review! Also in case you didnt know, the game has a setting where you can turn off the princess' non-story related blabbering on the base camp :)) it is a life savior
I had a lot of fun with the demo on this one and it was addicting, but haven't decided if I'm ready to get it quite yet! Always love watching your videos and hearing both of your opinions on games! I really enjoy games like this! Also, I would HIGHLY recommend Rune Factory 4 Special, I definitely think Kim would love it, it is one of my favorite games of all time. Especially if you enjoy games like Fantasy Life, as it's also one of my favorites as well.
This slightly reminds me of the overhead Ys games, like Origin. Interesting with multiple characters, and different jobs. It looks like they packed a lot into this game with all the farming, cooking, and characters. I think I need to play this! Great vid, as always!
Only tangentially related, but if you're into those style of Ys games, check out Legend of Nayuta! It's a Falcom game from the same era as Ys Origin and Ys Seven that takes a lot of cues from those games. The English translation of the remaster just came out a week ago on Steam (and I believe PS4/5 and Switch as well).
Oh my god! thank you both so much lol. This is a game that I had never heard of and it's right up there in something I love. I'm hooked on the demo! The classes are amazing, even ones I thought might sound crap turned out to be really fun! Had to come off as so hungry in real life lol, can't wait to go back on the demo. My nights just disapeared! My very small nitpicks: 1. Can't jump lol. 2. Can't jump down a ledge or up. That's it so far :D
Just spent an.hour before bed with the demo. Im enjoying it! Thanks for the review. P.S I'm sure someone already mentioned it, but one of the settings under "Language" is specifically there to turn the rambling from the princess on and off.
Ya I been enjoying the demo going try&reach level 3 in the hub jobs. Am almost there. Everyone is cap off so that's going be transferred am also grinding gems or rune they are called. I do have alot of challenges the achievements done that I have not collected so going be getting alot in the full release. Man those memories rift are such a fun tough thing to do.
Love how you two reviewed this game and while this game isn't for me, its definitely a game I can recommend to my brother who's into these dungeon crawling type action rpg's. Watching you two though was the fun part of this video!!
I think the manual pick up for equipments is so that we can choose which to pick / not. Like maybe in late game when you don't want to pick lower tier equips.
Great review, you guys! I really like the demo so far. Tempted to full send it for the full version because I feel like there is charm here!! Buuut I’m also eyeing Disgaea 7. 👀
Thanks for the nice review. Looks like a good game overall. The anime cut scenes from the trailer really stood out to me. Are those not used too often in the game?
I like what I've played of the demo! I'm excited to get the whole game, but I'll probably be waiting until next year to pick it up! Every game I've completed this year has been a 7-8/10 for me, but most of them are games that came out before this year.
I was iffy about this game but I'm bored so I picked it up last night after I watched this video. It is far more addictive than I anticipiated. I found myself playing it for about six hours straight. It is very simple, too simple to be as fun as it is; which isn't usually something that hooks me. The class progression is good, the abilities are fun to use, etc. It really has a lot going for it in terms of fun but boy oh boy did that grind hit hard around the time I got a character to around level 22. Surprisingly fun.
Looks great! the cows are from the old Harvest Moon games! Reminds me of the time when you leveled up your weapons waiting for andrew when you played Secret of Mana Lol
I played a lot the demo and it’s really fun! Definitely grabbing it day one! Thanks again Johnny and Kim for the great review this channel has always been my go to for real true opinions on games!
l love games like this where you have to grind. it's very therapeutic relaxing. it's sort of like old school dungeon crawlers or games like Disgaea. i love it.
Appreciate the focus on games here at HCG. We just need a few duplicates of you two so we can cover more ground. It’s been a remarkable year for games but as I browse TH-cam I see content creators exploiting their viewers for clicks. Not here, this is genuine. Thanks for the content.
@HappyConsoleGamer. One of criticism about not allowing all items to be picked automatically. Is it the reason because there is a item box limitation so you don't pick up all the low rank items. After picking all the item and have to delete them later is too much and also waste of time. have to sort item cluster. Of course, if they have automatic item sort when pick up will be nice also My criticism is there is no shortcut in the dungeon as you have to walk one end to end. Like going up the hill, instead of jumping down to ground floor, you have go back the winding path
I remember you mentioning this game silent hope in a previous video I did not expect it to be out already a game from xseed games the developers of the ys series I at some point and time definitely intend to get My hot little hands on this game it looks like a game that is right up my alley thank you again for another awesome video
Great review! I always enjoy watching your episodes. Kim is such a wonderful woman, and the synergy between you both is on point. Can't hardly wait "until next time" new episode.
Playing the demo, seems like a nice game to play for short bursts between other games. Kind of reminds me a bit of Fantasy Life, which I loved. Feels sort of like a high quality cell phone game, meant to be played over a longer period of time when you have some downtime. Oh, and I kept the princess' voice in Japanese. Definitely less grating and I mostly don't care what she is saying. I kind of wish they had done something like this for the "Into the Abyss" game instead of the horrible game that one ended up being.
I saw this review and at first I didn't remember what Silent Hope was. I just thought "Well, I'll check it out because I enjoy Johnny and Kim". Then I remembered this game and thought "Oh right, that game! Yeah, I wanted to see what that was like". XD
i was thinking of getting this or legendof nayuta with my paycheck then remembered "oh jeez, dragon quest: adventure of dai is dropping so those 2 gotta wait (haha), thanks for the review, i might eventually pick this up cus it does look fun seeing and hearing more about it now. edit: accidentally type kai first for whatever reason lol.
I highly recommend Nayuta. I haven't finished it yet but it's been very enjoyable so far. It scratches the same itch as Ys games of that era, especially Origin and Seven.
@@alxjones oh I plain on both games this a wasn't so much a "smite a game or 2" thing I'll probably enjoy em all lol. Nayuta does look great I'm just a dragon quest Stan is all lmaooo sorry guys. Both games will absolutely be purchased most likely since I can't help myself🤣
@@alxjones nayuta will be played it looks great as will Silent Hope not to take away from the OG post. Haha Didn't mean to distract just wanted to hear a deeper view on Silent Hope to be like "alright hit pay" is all lol Think I'm convinced haha.
i played the demo, it was fun and addictive BUT then i got bored because it was too repetitive, only being able to carry 3 skills isn't enough carry and i couldn't find any healing items.
I'm just here to say how happy I am this brother gamer found a lady in his life who shares in his interests. Happy for you, man. Wish you both continued happiness in your lives.

You 2 are awesome, love the videos each week and i base all my game purchasing on your feedback. Keep up the good work. Bruce from Scotland.

The older I get, the more I like simple. Less is more. This reminds me of nice Diablo style game to enjoy for an hour. Great review Johnny and Kim.

Not to far back NIS released a game called Monster Menu, this is what I wanted that game to be. Definitely picking this title up.
Monster Menu is a very interesting game. I have been off and on with it since launch. It's fun but it definitely has some issues.
Great review! Didn’t know anything about this one - doesn’t look like a game for me personally but it does look pretty polished for a smaller title.

My very small nitpicks:
1. Can't jump lol.
2. Can't jump down a ledge or up.
That's it so far :D
Love ya
That's so cute you help level up each other's characters! That's love right there
I’ve been enjoying the demo a lot. Playing through to the harder levels whilst levelling up the hub. Archer my best character so far.
I know I recognize this music... Is it Trinity Trigger music? It must be that, or something that I've played recently.
So is it addicting?
I'm definitely excited about this. I preordered it when it was announced and I am getting some Trinity Trigger and Mana vibes from this.
This wasn’t even on my radar so thanks for the video. It looks fun.
I love the overhead view. It looks like I'm going to have to get it soon. i just love the dungeon crawling and the jobs.
Just picked this game up. Can’t wait to jump on.
Just started Disgaea 7, but just now finding out about THIS! WHERE IS THE TIME!
I absolutely love when you 2 do a video together! Great video!
Just spent an.hour before bed with the demo. Im enjoying it! Thanks for the review.
P.S
I'm sure someone already mentioned it, but one of the settings under "Language" is specifically there to turn the rambling from the princess on and off.
Diablo lite. good review! Have a nice day!
I love when you bring your wife on. You two have great energy together.
Have you guys ever played Hob? Great Zelda-like....
Hob is a really good game! I enjoyed it and finished it a couple years ago. Good recommendation 👍
I think Kim would LOVE the Atelier games if she hasn't tried them yet
I ran into this game by random and love it!
Johnny Tsunami, Flash Forward *was that Nickelodeon*, Heavyweights & Bug Juice were among my top fav Disney Channel programming.
Great nostalgia trip
never heard of it. XSeed does have a track record of producing pretty good RPGs.

Im actually happy to hear most of what y’all talked about. Will def pick up eventually. Too much to play at the moment but later will grab physical

Give us your list, which ones did you complete? :)
I have the Switch version preordered and it looks like it's right up my lane with something a bit different compared to what I've played this year.
I completely forgot about this game. Thanks for covering it. Love your videos.
Liking and subbing cuz Kim makes the videos much doper 🎉🎉🎉🎉
I feel left out John. I don't have a jacket with zippers on the sleeves and the two of you do. Lol. Love the video!
Good headed you two thanks for sharing. I think I'll try it you got me interested. As always love the show.
Once I finish sea of stars I'll give this a go. Great review guys. I really enjoy it when you guys are on together. 😁👍🏻

Did you get the day one edition or just the game?
Looks great! the cows are from the old Harvest Moon games! Reminds me of the time when you leveled up your weapons waiting for andrew when you played Secret of Mana Lol
The art style amd battle mechanics kind of remind me of "Deaths Door"
I played a lot the demo and it’s really fun! Definitely grabbing it day one! Thanks again Johnny and Kim for the great review this channel has always been my go to for real true opinions on games!
Love this review definitely picking this up!
I got my copy already. Love Marvelous games. Kiiiiim, please go and play Rune Factory 4 Special or 3 Special, I 100% sure you gonna love it!!
This reminds me a lot of Little Noah: Scion of Paradise

Looks good! Kinda looks like a more colorful diablo. 65% off for digital right now for $13.99
That's why Kim and I both love fantasy Life 🤣 We love crafting and making stuff

Make sure you play Legend of Nayuta that just came out!! Amazing re release game by Falcom
Another great video! I'll skip this one though. I've been really curious for a long time. What do you do Johnny. What kind of job do you have? 🤔
How dare you guys drop a video on Wednesday, encouraging me to pre order this game lol. My body isn’t ready for the non Sunday vids.
WHERE.... DID YOU GET...... THAT AUTOBOT MATRIX!!!!! lol And I was here for the review but saw THAT in the background! 👍
The automatic/manual mechanic was also used in Nier: Automata for item gathering.
Demos are always appreciated
I'm a sucker for killing enemies and getting loot and this looks exactly like that! I may have to grab this on sale

Hey bro, what are your feelings on dragon quest infinite is trash🤔🤔🤔 why didn’t they have a physical release nor a demo? What are they hiding?🤔🤔
Good video john and kim 😎👍💯
This concept reminds me of Fate so much! I love it!
ill be waiting on a sale but will deff pick this up! looks like great fun
Great review! I always enjoy watching your episodes. Kim is such a wonderful woman, and the synergy between you both is on point. Can't hardly wait "until next time" new episode.
Looks fun! There are so may good games coming out! I've been playing 'Sea Of Stars" its soooooooooo good! 🤘
So kinda like Dragon Quest builder but not advanced?
So keen for this games!

Not even interested in the game, but had to watch the video for the wholesomeness lol ❤
And the trinity trigger music🔥
A farming+action rpg game? I’m in 🗡️👨🏽🌾🛡️
I’ll definitely pick this up eventually but with Detective Pikachu right around the corner I’ll have to hold off 😅
Does it have co-op, couch or online? I can't find a solid answer for this.
Nope
It is a single player game, unfortunately.
I'd actually never heard of this until now
Amazing game!
I saw this review and at first I didn't remember what Silent Hope was. I just thought "Well, I'll check it out because I enjoy Johnny and Kim". Then I remembered this game and thought "Oh right, that game! Yeah, I wanted to see what that was like". XD
This looks like the mechanics of Diablo 3, almost exactly just with a different skin. Very cute though.
I’d try it..seems pretty fun
This looks great but I am not a Nintendo owner at this point I have a PS4 pro and a nice high end gaming PC.
nice review!! will you sell me your earthbound?
The graphics and menus look basic af. This should be cheaper
Bonus episode on a Wednesday morning?!?! 🎉
Fantasy life? I think I gonna check this game out, look really good

This game is addicting. A real turn your brain off game. Perfect for when you're tired. The enemy descriptions or really cool too.
Get some items ready to be made than jump into the dungeon till they are made is a nice loop.
Can’t do the chibi style. More power to you, though
i wonder why frederica tittle on japan eshop im playinh now Mage user
¿iTs a farming RPG?
This was a good episooooode
You make me wish I had been born Canadian 😊
Omg i love that Game 😮
