I played Zettai Hero Project and liked the mechanics and then I played Guided Fate Paradox. The hunger, in my opinion, was fixed either by losing less or having more enemies drop food more often. In addition the equipment degradation was replaced with the burst mechanic, which made them stronger as you go on the dungeons. Both of this changes made this game better and enjoyable for me. Although the story in Guided Fate Paradox was weaker than the one in Zettai Hero Proyect I still liked it. I was sad to see the sequel, Awakening Fate Ultimatum, simplify the mechanics a lot, especially by removing the equipment slots and only leaving the weapon-shield-relic that is usual in other mystery dungeon style games (the Shiren series, Touhou Genso Wanderer, etc.). Very few games have mechanics similar to ZHP or Guided Fate Paradox and wished that Guided Fate Paradox was available elsewhere. I know the game has its flaws (speed boosts are all but useless and finishing the game inmediately restarts the playthrough) but still had a very good time messing around with my equipment and looking for stronger versions in the extra dungeons. I would like to see it become availble and preserved in GOG because it is different than other roguelikes out there and fun on its own merits (in my opinion).

The final dungeon took me 13 Hours, cost a lot of blood, sweat and tears and I'd do it again, brother! I love the games story and the characters, i still listen to the soundtrack to this day. Haven't played many roguelikes, but this one is my favorite by far. The real challenge lies in the extra dungeons, it's nothin' but misery, in an ejoyable kind of way. I'd love to play through it all again 10/10

Monster Hunter: World
Monster Hunter: WorldMonster Hunter: World sees players take on the role of a hunter that completes various quests to hunt and slay monsters within a lively living and breathing eco-system full of predators…. and prey. In the video you can see some of the creatures you can expect to come across within the New World, the newly discovered continent where Monster Hunter: World is set, including the Great Jagras which has the ability to swallow its prey whole and one of the Monster Hunter series favourites, Rathalos. Players are able to utilise survival tools such as the slinger and Scoutfly to aid them in their hunt. By using these skills to their advantage hunters can lure monsters into traps and even pit them against each other in an epic fierce battle. Can our hunter successfully survive the fight and slay the Anjanath? He’ll need to select his weapon choice carefully from 14 different weapon classes and think strategically about how to take the giant foe down. Don’t forget to pack the camouflaging ghillie suit!

Monster Hunter
Monster HunterMonster Hunter is an online action-hunting game by CAPCOM for the PlayStation 2 released on March 11th, 2004 in Japan, and September 21st, 2004 in North America. The game is a fantasy hunting simulator filled with many deadly monsters. Like actual hunting, successfully killing or capturing the monsters requires significant strategy, skill and involved resource management. While initially considered a commercial failure, Monster Hunter would go on to become one of CAPCOM's highest selling franchises. Despite featuring an offline mode, Monster Hunter was primarily an online game. The official servers were shut down on December 31, 2007 in North America and Europe, and July 1, 2011 in Japan. This means that it is now impossible to play online on official CAPCOM servers. Despite this, the game still features a small active community on private servers.
