Tanglewood is an indie Sega Genesis game that I really want to speedrun, but have been waiting for years for the Director's Cut version that was being worked on (unsure if it's scrapped at this point?). I loved the design and story of the protagonists Nymn and Echo, though I prefer Nymn overall.

My first Phantasy Star game was Phantasy Star Universe, which I never got to play online on PS2. All I had was the campaign, and I really took to Karen Erra, a badass newman woman who was the Hunter class because she couldn't use TECHNICs, which went against her race's class expectations.
