I normally find turn-based combat really boring but I find Shin Megami Tensei games so engrossing in part due to the combat. You need to pay attention to mechanics and properly prepare for each boss fight if you want to overcome them. It’s not about just gathering enough exp. Do you know any games similar to SMT when it comes...
imo it’s worth it to play the megaten spinoffs in general, just like what helix said in another comment here. In particular I would like to recommend Devil Survivor because of a lot of things: has a skill steal (skill crack) system so you progressively get better skills for yourself and your demons, makes you think about how you make your team, the first game has the best alignment ending choices in the whole megaten series, the demon auction system, and more. Also: Octopath traveler and its sequel are good
my situation is very similar to yours; I was previously an obsidian user but then switched to logseq for everything. I really wonder why logseq website doesn’t hype up the fact that it’s an outliner, because imo that’s what sets it apart from similar programs. I didn’t even know what an outliner was until recently
what sucks about notion’s AI stuff is that you can’t even opt out of it. Back when I used to be a notion user part of what made me leave is that doing commands with the forward slash was always shoving AI shit in my face lol
I used to love getting lost in virtual worlds. My favorite games were the ones that I could explore for hours: New Vegas, Skyrim, Hollow Knight, Breath of the Wild, Outer Wilds, Outer Worlds, KOTOR, The Witcher 3, Cyberpunk 2077, (okay you get the idea). A game felt like a bargain if my attention span was the only the only thing...
So glad to see Roadwarden mentioned! Another short game I played recently is Paradise Marsh. Its not really text-focused (it’s more dialogue and only some snippets of lore pieces) but it’s a short simple game with a very nice story. It also has birds that make poems!
Do you know any good JRPGs with engaging gameplay similar to SMT?

In praise of the short narrative video game...
