Shift

Really good, on par with Explorers. The new mission system is fun and challenging (The game is really hard), and also pretty rewarding. There are also tons of little callbacks to previous games, something I really like. The missions are also really cute; on missions that say 'meet me at my secret base' you can hang out with a bunch of Pokemon on missions to become their friends. Or they'll drop a Monster House on you. Either or.

Oh wow Monster Houses, I completely forgot about those. Looks like I'll be getting it soon, hopefully! ^^

What about the plot?

I'm only on Chapter 13, so i'm not completely into the plot yet, but from what I've seen it looks promising. It's starting to pick up, and I heard it gets better from here on out. It's like explorers; little missions and then the plot slams you in the face.

Oh, by the way, there was already a scene that was a tear jerker and i'm only a few hours in.
