WHY:
“Behold the power of the Lord of Flames.” Western fans are about to get their first hands-on experience with Percival in the battle arena! This noble warrior has traveled far and wide to learn the secrets of statecraft, all in hopes of founding his dream country. Before setting out on his journey to achieve such lofty goals, he and Lancelot served as officers in the same knightly order, studying under the same master. He received his nickname, the Lord of Flames, from the noble way he wields his blazing longsword. Those who come face-to-face with him find themselves either entranced or terrified by his dazzling abilities.

Gaming since the Atari 2600, I enjoy the weirdness in games counting Densha De Go and RC De Go as my favourite titles of all time. I prefer gaming of old where buying games from a shop was a thing, Being social in person was a thing. Join me as I attempt to adapt to this new digital age!
