i dont particularly love or hate peace walker. the story is a fun ride, but the game play really sucks and only kicks in during the end game grind (which sucks).

portable ops' story is dumb as fuck but the gameplay and environment design was great

if i had to give a number i'd say 7.5/10. even saying that, this is my favorite game other than arceus in recent memory by a wide wide margin. i hope legends sequels will add in more rpg stuff. less formulaic side quests, actual dungeons to test resource management etc

using kalos, the region with one of the more personal stories in the series was a great call for this. if the main line is to 'expand the world' and legends 'deepens the world' then i guess mission accomplished!

that does not inspire confidence in the next mainline tho lol

im debating labelling up my art and making a model just to learn how.

dont worry though, ill never publish anything im generating publically. im just fixated on mechanics rn and working through it
