Techically 3, I would say 2 and a half. Route B is mostly the same as Route A, except you play a different character. Many people stopped playing, thinking it was just a bonus, and completely missed that Route C afterwards is a continuation of the story.

And that's why I only get my AEW news from Brandon Cutler.
Cutler as Meltzer
Oh is THAT what the tweet was? Man, I've been trying to make sense of that all day!
Am I crazy or was that Matt Jackson asking "Where do you go from here" at the end? Because if that's the case, then classic BTE might be coming back.
I've beaten Route A of Nier:Automata today. So next is Route B, a.k.a. the reason a lot of players missed the true ending of the game. And I won't blame anyone, it's not that interesting.
My progress in Sparks of Hope has been minimal, but I hope to finish World 2 this weekend.
There was a time when I replayed the whole Trilogy every year when summer came around. When it gets hot and sweaty, I still gets the urge to dig out the Wii Remote and play them again.
Still playing Nier:Automata, still on Route A. I forgot how much the side quests ask you to run back and forth the same few areas, but knowing what the game is truly about, it actually makes a lot of sense, so I'm okay with it.
I'm halfway through the second world of Mario/Rabbids Sparks of Hope and my first impression is that I preferred the first game in every single way. The battles are no longer rated in any way, so you don't need to try to play all that well, just win and move on. Most of the maps are kinda bland. No weapon upgrades, it's just cosmetics. having two characters fully voice-acted when everyone else is silent is really jarring and it's the first time I turned voice volume to 0% in a game, now I can actually enjoy the comedy more.
But the most jarring thing to me is that it seems like Ubisoft tried to make the Rabbids... cool? Thankfully the volume decrease also gets rid of the snippy one-liners, but why do they speak in the first place? Rabbids say Bwah, nothing else. And why am I picking up pieces of lore about the planets I'm on? It's Mario and Rabbids, I'm here for slapstick, not world-building! I'm not sure where to even begin about Edge...
I'll keep playing it out of curiosity, but I'm really tempted to boot up the first game again afterwards to see if it's really the game or me that changed so much.
Tanahashi becomes president, Shibata signs with AEW and now Okada leaves, too? It's probably just a coincidence, but you can't blame a wrestling fan for being paranoid.
Yeah, these are still GBA games. Djinns aren't like Koroks in modern Zelda, more like Heart Pieces in classic Zelda. Limited to a reasonable number and each one meaningful.
The second game has a secret dungeon that is unlocked by collecting all Djinns in both games. No Djinn is missable within their own game, but this obviously doesn't apply across games. You can miss 1 Djinn of each element in the first game and the second one will give you an opportunity to encounter them there to help you out, but that's the end of the leeway.
