Image source: x.com/Ys_Central

Over on X (Twitter), Nihon Falcom have just announced that an upgraded version for Ys X: Nordics is coming next year. So far we only know of a JP release which is next year, hopefully, it comes out for other regions then as well. This upgrade features a new story, new areas and new elements to the gameplay. Here is a list of specific things we know so far:

- Takes place on Aland Island 
- Obtainable new mana action
- There will be new bosses
- Can take part in mana ride races
- You can challenge an arena where fierce enemies await

I really did not expect this to happen at all. I am quite excited for this and the screenshots look really good. One of the main issues of the original was the visuals so this will make the game even better. I can't wait to dive back into this adventure with Adol and explore this new Island. However, this has a chance to be a bit disappointing if it is like Persona/SMT, in that you need to buy the new version and there is no upgrade option for people who have the game already. I really hope that's not the case. On top of this, it has only been announced for Japan so far, but surely it'll come overseas too and hopefully the same year.

That's it for this blog, stay connected!

[Thoughts] Will Tears of the Kingdom have DLC?

  DLC for Tears of the kingdom could happen but I don't think it's likely Source: Author's edit I want to start off by saying I do not think this game needs DLC at all, though it would be welcome. Breath of the Wild had an expansion pass with 3 waves of content. Looking at the contents of that could give us an idea about what a Tears of the Kingdom expansion pass could look like. The first wave (Expansion pass purchase bonus) was available at the games launch and included the following: - 3 new treasure chests This was a very small wave featuring 3 chests of goodies. The biggest thing from this was a Nintendo Switch shirt link could wear. It was a nice little extra to start the game off with but definitely not the defining content of the pass. Moving on, The second wave (DLC pack 1) offered a lot more in terms of content, with it offering these following things: - Trail of the Sword - Master mode - Heroes path mode.  This wave offered many things to test the players skill...

[Thoughts] Post Game Content Is Awesome!

Post game content is something I greatly  appreciate in games ~Intro ~ Many games over the years have included post game content, it's a way to give more content to players who really enjoyed their time with the main game and were left wanting a little more. Sometimes it is in the form of a few bonus missions, while other times epilogue stories can happen. I will now give some examples of good post game content and discuss what makes them good. ~Dark  Chronicle~ The post game for this game is quite big. After the main story you follow the main character on another small adventure to a place called the Zelmite Mine. This mysterious mine is huge, forming the biggest dungeon in the game by quite a bit. This Dungeon even has multiple mini bosses, one of which being fairly important to the narrative. While the dungeon does require a little bit of grinding to be able to get through it, it isn't too bad and I never found myself having...
