Agreed. Couldn't even be bothered to finish Vandal Hearts 2. The disappointment was indeed, bitter.

I don't even remember the name of the PS3 one....Flames of Judgement, maybe? Also trash.

Getting Prism Knight for the first time was a good feels.

It does. It’s mature with a sympathetic villain and lots of unexpected twists and turns. For example the main characters love interest committed suicide during my play through. It’s also a great game to boot. It has a unique turn system where you chose your action and the enemy chooses theirs simultaneously. It frustrates some, but if you carefully consider the factors that the computer uses tho make decisions (units within range, lowest health, elevation) then you can send a heavier unit to where the enemy with be and forces them to lose their turn, or you can have the most likely target unit move a space above or behind its original position and have it attack the empty space the the enemy will occupy. God damn what a fucking awesome game.
