If you’re playing Hacker’s Memory without importing a Cybersleuth save, it would be painful as fuck, since Hacker’s Memory is a post-game Gaiden for Cybersleuth that allowed the import of a save from the first game. Sadly, Cybersleuth was delisted from PlayStation, so you’d have to hunt down a disc to play it and Hacker’s Memory won’t make a lot of sense story wise if you only play it.

There are items you can use on the farm to keep COM building for the mons you have training there, but they’re not too common or cheap.
Damn i didn't know about Cyber Sleuth getting delisted.

Also, getting money for those meat items is primarlly why i got 2 PrinceMame's. I know there's a USB that boosts money gain that will boost it too, so i'll work on getting those.
 
Been playing more Growlanser 2. Once i got a hang of the combat, its a pretty fun game. Got a powerful ring that can hold my 8 gem that makes it so Wien can attack tree times in one turn, turning his scythe into a blender. Why dose Hans have so many character lines when he lands a critical hit? Its also in this weird era of games when character use none English words in a fantasy setting (fucker keeps speaking Spanish and German). Love the little guy because his a god damn machine gun with his knives. The story and characters do keep my attention and i cant wait for what happens next.

Get as many of the level 3 money boosters equipped on 5-slot Digimon as you can as soon as you can and go into the high-density areas of Kowloon, not necessarily the highest-value enemy areas, as getting into more fights faster will be more efficient.
 
Finished Fuga: Melodies of Steel. I love the artstyle and the general simple approach it took towards most everything. The battle system got a little stale by the end but overall it was a nice game.

Are you up to playing 3 games of that? I feel like CC2 are kinda milking that series... Which, granted, it's their only original IP.

I am definitely taking a break haha. I purposefully held off on starting it until now because from what I can find Fuga 3 is the last in the trilogy, even if the characters and setting get re-used later.

Just finished growlanser 2. It was short and sweet. The gameplay was solid for a TRPG and the gem system was easy to understand if not a bit lacking. You can only slot three gems per ring so there is not much build variety. Most, if not all characters were enjoyable but i wish we got to spend more time with them. The game just sorta ends before we really got to know most of them. Travel the world map was fun, and there are ton of secrets such as missable battles, cut scenes and items you can find, if you willing to check everything. The problem with that is the game has a random battle encounter. You run into tons of battles if you just walking around (even with an item that lessens the encounter rate, its was still pretty high) You may as well fight them all since Armor is EXPENSIVE and you gonna need the better stuff if you wanna survive the later battles.

I think the coolest moments for me was That Arieta can die if you miss her content which was a shock for me, since she plays a pretty big roll in the story and you can lose out the best battle mage in the party. You can also side with the final boss in the end, fighting the rest of your party (expect Hans, since he's the best of boys). You dont really see that in RPGs anymore.

Checking out the extra options. The voice takes are hilarious!

I see you got pretty much the same events as I remember. I miss games with this kind of branching story without needing to make a huge fuss from every big event. There was a Growlanser 3 which I remember starting but never progressed far from, that was included in the same case. Also there was a fourth game on the PSP which I remember being pretty fun.
