I think I have ruined the early part of Star Ocean 2 for myself by RNGing myself a pair of late game weapons. Was able to knock out a secret monster solo.

Don't think I'm going to be able to finish up Crimbo in Loathing this year.

So far it seems very good but like it's going to become both very tough and difficult to manage quickly. The loop is you beat enemies in a stage to turn them into books, which you either burn to unlock new cards for your decks or consume to attempt harder stages. You can also do special battles against otherworldly horrors in puzzle-like battles to increase the effectiveness of each of your squads via unlocking additional characters for it. Each character has their own deck of cards (I think it's like 9-10) so it appears to want you to build parties with synergy in mind.

I think there's a huge amount of meat on it but I can see getting overwhelmed by the sheer number of options presented. If you like deck builders give it a shot; I got it as part of the current humble bundle.

How's the Library if Ruina? It looks weirdly interesting to me, but I don't think I understand what it's about at all.

Well now I know you're lying. How can you do that to me?

Don't know how I did it, but I finally had a KoL Crimbo where I got everything on offer.
