Cave story was a lot of fun, I didn't know she hadn't played it though o.O I imagine she's playing through steam, hopefully it has all the modes as well. Also, yay for Alice Madness returns plus comic! That game gets pretty heavily platform-y, but I still enjoyed it a lot. Still want Farore to dress up as MR styled Alice, lol.
I am super cracking out on Ragnarok Odyssey for PS Vita. Basically, it's like Monster Hunter mixed with Phantasy Star Online, and obviously plenty of RO flavor (as in, costumes and hats!). The one thing that always turned me off to MH was the slow combat, so I'm glad RO has a fast and combo heavy combat system (with aerial combos too even). One oddity though is there is no leveling at all (weird when thinking about RO) but that's part of what keeps the game decently challenging, you can't outlevel stuff. Instead you get some minor stat increases after a chapter is done and you can upgrade equip, and of course a big part of it is in the cards you equip.
Currently playing an Assassin with the original RO thief costume (though it's dyed) and the old school goggles, good times.
