If there's one thing I've learnt about myself during my lifetime of playing video games, it's that I adore collecting things. Whether it's the trinkets that can be found lurking in The Last of Us' many cupboards, or all the coins in Mario's path, you can bet I'm going to hoover up the lot, but the one thing that draws me in more than anything else is collecting creatures.
As my favorite game series, Pokémon is the best example of this, but I love any title that allows me to befriend a plethora of cute and quirky little guys, and build a powerful team while traveling across a fantastical land. What I wasn't expecting was to get this same catch 'em all satisfaction from Eiyuden Chronicle: Hundred Heroes and its many recruitable human (and human-like) companions.
