Burokku Girls Review comment
I have a feeling every single Sakura game I bought on that Humble Bundle sale is going to turn out exactly like this - which is why I have yet to play any of them (also, it will show up on my Steam activity... and I can't wash off the shame).

Finding Paradise Review comment
Finding Paradise is on my wishlist, I just haven't pulled the trigger yet. Based on your review, I will bump it up on my purchase list!

Okay, I changed it to a 3/5 just for you.

Somebody's bias is showing here, but it's not mine.

Super Mario Maker 2 Review comment
So let me get this straight. You played a game that's based on BUILDING and SHARING levels with others and you built a single level and didn't even access the sharing portion of the game to play other users levels.
Since you state this was your intent all along I have to say you should have never bought this game. The story mode to Mario Maker 2 is clearly secondary and if you're not going to build a ton of levels or get the Nintendo Online Subscription for sharing you have no business …

Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins Review comment
Sigh. So I guess your complaints under "presentation" represent ALL original Game Boy games? You do realize that this game came out in 1992 and the Super Game Boy came out in 1994 right? That means when this game was made there was no consideration whatsoever about a color palette. And then complaining about the sound not being able to produce what a SNES could is like saying all Switch games are inferior to PS4 games because it can't produce the same graphics. Wow talk about superficial …

The controls are solid. There's momentum, as you'd expect underwater (or in space), but it's not overdone and movement is very responsive.
I played Hollow Knight for a couple of hours, and found it to be over-hyped flavor-of-the-day bandwagon fodder, so I uninstalled it. I won't be reviewing it, but if you must know my least favorite of its many questionable mechanics and design choices, it would be the way knockback works. Instead of pushing enemies away as the hero hits them, the hero …

I often find myself frustrated by the controls of games that take place underwater and I've seen complaints elsewhere online saying that this game is like that. How did it play for you?
Also, I see that you said that Hollow Knight and Dead Cells are over-hyped. Have you played them? I don't see a review for either from you. I'm not sure you can compare Dead Cells to this, it's a rogue-like but I've only heard good things from Hollow Knight.

Octopath Traveler Review comment
I have to say I spent a grand total of 1-2 hours solely dedicated to grinding in the game to up my levels for the boss rush. While there are no specific enemies you can seek out that will give you tons of experience, there are two accessories you can obtain in the game that will each boost JP and XP by 50% for the whole party in any given battle. Not only that, if you unlock one of the secret classes there are passive skills you can learn that will also boost each by 50%. That means with …
