I feel that Chrono Trigger is similar in that vein, unless you try to fight Lavos before you should, most of the boss battles work more like a puzzle rather than a strength test.But still I wouldn't mind having to grind a bit in Paper Mario (or Chrono Trigger) because both have really fun battle systems.

Advance Wars 1 on GBA: man, I didn't remember this game being this difficult, one of the hardest game on the GBA for sure.

Paper Mario: The Thousand Years Door on Switch, I still have the Gamecube version, but the portability is one the things I like the most about handheld consoles.

Plays Vs Zombies on PC (Steam), PvZ is so addictive I want to 100% it already.

Surprisingly Four Sword Adventures had the hardest puzzles from all the other Zelda games, maybe they were designed to be resolved in group, but since I played the game by myself it took me more than I expected to solve some of them, the game was good overall and I enjoyed it a lot even by playing it alone, too bad it's a game we'll never see remastered or ported to the virtual console since we know Nintendo hates us.
With Triforce Heroes, I don't know why is it considered a mainline game, the story and settings are too derivative of the classic Zelda games even though the gameplay is almost the same as the two Four Sword games, so far is not as good as FSA, but I appreciate the graphics being similar to ALBW since that was one of my most replayed game on the 3ds.
I'll definitely not play any of the spin-offs, I tried to play the first Hyrule Warriors when it came out on the Wii U and it bored me by the third stage. Maybe I'll play some of the Tingle games out of curiosity but personally I don't consider them to be Zelda games, like I don't consider Yoshi Island to be a Mario game.

I've been playing Paper Mario 64 and I'm enjoying it so much, I really like how "minimalist" it is, while still having a big range of options for your build. At this point I'm tired of overly complicated plots in RPGs so the very basic plot is a plus for me at this point.
-
I also started playing Zelda: Four Swords Adventures for the Nintendo Gamecube, I didn't know you could play it in single player mode, so that was stopping me from playing it.
While it doesn't feel like a classic Zelda game, I appreciate what the gameplay has to offer so far.
After finishing this one, it would only left for me to play Zelda: Triforce Heroes to finish playing every mainline Zelda game.

I'm really tired of finding groups of people to play D&D (in person), is there any solo/two people campaign that me and I friend can play with?
Please something simple, I have a little more experience playing it but have never DM'd before, but we're both very creative, so I can think we both can still have fun

The artists availability it's more or less the same as Spotify, the search is also good, but keep in mind there's way less playlists there (both curated playlists and user created), so that might be a downside when you want to search a very specific playlist.
But anyways, some of its advantages are:
- Better music quality.
- No podcasts (for me that was a plus).
- Simpler UI.
- It's more album-focused.

yes, that's actually what I love about it, I remember I only played the first one and Dual Strike, I managed to finish Dual Strike (don't know how), but it difficulty curve is more linear in that one.
For Fire Emblem I played and finished them all from the GBA, DS and 3ds (I have Three Houses but I haven't started it yet).
