New year, new stuff. There's some nice works of art available at the Final Fantasy art gallery.

I also updated the Bravely Default preview, as I came to the conclusion that this game is not really my cup of tea.

Aside of that, I changed the copyright from 2020 to 2021.

So, 2020 concludes. We have some updated art assets in our Seiken galleries. They're better versions of the images already available in the past.

About 2020

It's hard to find the correct words to wish the readers of this little page a happy new year, if the past one was so shockingly different from other years in the past. The pandemic struck almost everyone I know in some way or the other, and then there's lots of private issues for so many people around the world. I don't know why fate choose this year to be especially challenging for so many, may it be big or small issues.

Let's just hope that the next year will be better, and I hope the best for all of you.

About 2021

Since i can't see into the future, it's not much use trying to do some predictions whatsoever. I honestly even don't know which games I will be playing that year, since nothing of interest for me has been announced to be released in that year. Maybe YS IX or Tales of Arise.

Starting tomorrow, rpg-o-mania has been live and constantly updated for three consecutive years. Let's hope that this works out for the next three years as well.

Up to this day, 907.801 people have visited rpg-o-mania since September 6th, 1999. That's not pretty much compared to other websites that started before the turn of the millennium, but hey, maybe we reach the millionth visitor in 2021.

All that remains is that I wish you and your families a great year without much woes, have a great time and stay as healthy as you can!

Today I added a new preview covering Bravely Default II, a game that I had lots of fun with while playing the Demo provided in the Nintendo eShop.

Still, the prediction is only "skeptical", as I also had much fun in playing the Octopath Traveler demo, a game developed by the same team, and the final game disappointed me a little.

Today I have some very special Secret of Mana artworks available in the corresponding gallery. Two of them are from the Nintendo Power magazine, one is an official art that's been flying around the net for decades. However, never has this artwork seen in such a good quality.

I received the artwork from VideoGameArt&Tidbits - a great account to follow, by the way!

So here it is finally - the new Chrono Trigger review. The old one, written by Necron back then for RPG xanadu, has been reverted to its original state along with the 110% rating.

But this new one is now our official review.

I enjoyed the play-through, but in the end, the game indeed felt a little dated. Especially the animations are a bit clunky for today's standard, and the final dungeon is a tad uninspired. Nevertheless, a great game.
