Matt Sainsbury: "Atelier Ryza 3 should be the final chapter for Ryza, and it’s a fine send-off. It’s a game in which nostalgia plays a key thematic role, and has been made for nostalgic Atelier fans first and foremost. I know this probably sounds like faint praise, but Atelier is my favourite JRPG series and Ryza 3 is a perfectly fine game in that context. Hence the store. It’s just that, more than anything else, I dearly hope that after the next Marie remake, Gust settles down to give us new stories, new adorable alchemist girls, and some new ideas again."
“It's the end of another great year so it's time to celebrate the very best games of 2023; perhaps you'll discover something wonderful.” - A.J. Maciejewski from Video Chums.
“It's time for one of my favourite annual round-ups: our RPG of the Year Awards so here are this year's best RPGs in 11 distinct categories.” - A.J. Maciejewski from Video Chums.
Hands down. Star ocean 2 remake. Shame it didn't make it to any of their lists. One other thing imo sea of stars was better then chained echoes.
Excellent choices! Both are great games that we considered but Chained Echoes edged out Sea of Stars by a hair and Star Ocean 2 almost made the cut. There were so many phenomenal RPGs this year that some tough decisions had to be made; that's for sure! 😅
No mention of Xenoblade Chronicles 3: Future Redeemed. That's ridiculous. One of the best dlc ever.
Absolutely! And thanks for your feedback - we will consider an award for DLC next year.
