Whatcha all been playing? I've been playing a ton of Mario world ROM hacks, including some kaizo ones. Also started doing my oblivion playthrough again!

Ys 8: Lacrimosa of Dana on PS4. I'm really enjoying although, I think this game is a bit too long for an action RPG.

Modern Ys games, have a really satisfying and extremely fast paced combat system, and this is no exception. Story wise, though, it only gets interesting in the last third of the game.

I'm on the final chapter right now, looking forward finishing the game next week.

I played that a few years ago, but I just finished Ys 9 a week and a half ago. I agree with your assessment of the story arcs. Lots of "wtf is going on?" for the first 75%, but when everything comes together it's at least unique.

And then you have to kill god because it's a jrpg.
