I finished Kena, the total playtime was just under 17 hours. I would have liked one more area that's visually distinct from the rest of the game. As nice as it looks, it's lacking in variety. I completed most collectables. The game did unlock another set of trials in the five-second span between beating the final boss and rolling the credits but I wasn't willing to go back at this point. I hadn't mentioned this yet, but the music is really good, too.
And now would have been the time to start Xenoblade X, but I've decided to wait until after Bananza. So I've started playing Mahjong 3, uh, I mean, Yakuza 3 instead. Despite the remastering, I knew it was going to be the most difficult game in the series to get into, considering the step backwards it is from the Kiwami remakes of the first two. I have heard that enemies in this game block a lot and for the bosses I've fought so far that is absolutely true. Boss fights boil down to throws, which is not the most fun way to play. There doesn't seem to be too much incentive to complete anything either, unlike the previous games. I love Okinawa as a location though, it's very different from anything I've seen in the series so far (and probably will until the day Majima becomes a pirate).
Yeah, I generally don't care about going back after finishing the game, unless it's a really good one.
Heh, good luck with Mahjong 3. I always confuse which one was 3 and which one was 4. Okinawa is a nice place, but doesn't have the charm of Kamurocho .
