    Finished Midnight Suns on monday iirc. Pretty decent overall, really liked the combat and the relation between characters but god the writers didnt really know when to shut up and even cool dialogues are dragged into the mud because the dialogues get awkardly long, like none of the two characters talking know how to end the conversation. That and the game forcing you through side content makes a game that was close to a 9 to barely a 7.
    Playing Ghostwire Tokyo too and i think im close to finishing it too. It has been a fun ride but i dont know if the enemy variety and core gameplay stands on its own for 10+ hours. The setting is amazing and enjoyed most of the side missions i did. Loved learning a lot of japanese culture with the game, its been done with a lot of respect for Japanese folklore.

      I loved Midnight Suns, but the replayability does suffer because of all the dialogue scenes without easy ways to skip past them. I’m playing a second game now on higher difficulty and still enjoying the combat but it’s a bit annoying to have to skip past all those conversations. If they patch in a New Game+ option that lets you just skip to the combat it’ll really improve the game. Still I’ll probably do one more campaign with the DLC characters added, I hear some of them are a lot of fun.
