Hello Everyone!
Time for another update on our gaming progress!
I am still playing The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingom. About 65 hours in. Small non-spoiler update next, those who want to avoid it can move to next paragraph. I am going for the last regional quest, and have found 60+ shrines. As for exploration, have done about 1/4th of Depths and Sky Islands, and activated all Sky towers, though there’s still a lot to find.
I mentioned resuming Animal Crossing, but it didn’t went far. My wife is completely back into it, but I haven’t played it much, whenever I am on Switch I just want to play Zelda.
In non-Nintendo world, just downloaded Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder’s Revenge, going to start playing it with my kid. Going to be our first beat 'em up together, if I am not forgetting any.
Other than that, also planning to give Monster Hunter: World another try, this time with a group of friends.
That’s all from me. What are you all up to? What are you playing?
I’m still immersed in the world of TotK, squeezing in gaming sessions whenever I find a spare moment. Surprisingly, despite investing a considerable amount of time, I’m “only” 40 hours into the game.
Haha, I had an opposite experience. I thought I am not playing it at all, might be 20-30 hours at most, then checked and was at 50 hours. The game feels immersive so don’t even realize how much time I have put into it.
Since I finished TotK last week (got 100 hours out of the game), I decided to take a break from it for a while and instead focus on my switch backlog.
I’m about to finish a game called In Other Waters. What I initially thought would be just a chill exploration game became a really immersive narrative experience with turn of events which really caught me off guard. I’m definitely interested in more games from the developer, I heard great things about their subsequent game Citizen Sleeper.
Other than that, I started playing Blaster Master Zero 2. I played the first one last year and really enjoyed my time with it, and the sequel so far seems to be as good as the first one.
Outside of Nintendo ecosystem, I’ll also probably boot up PS5 for a few hours and try to get more trophies out of Unravel 2.
Congratulations on finishing the game!
You already got me interested in “In Other Waters”, now you are getting me even more excited. Going to move it up on my to-play list.
How are you playing Unravel 2? Single player or co-op?
ToTK, spending a lot of time not doing the main quests.
Finishing up FFVII Remake Intermission before I start FFXVI as the other game I’m juggling in the not-much free time I have had lately.
TotK is just as fun doing the main quest, as it’s not doing the main quest. Though right now I am really excited about the story and want to know more.
Good luck with FF7R-I, are you looking forward to playing the the second part coming next year?
I am keeping up with TotK. Well over 100 hours but I may spend some time in Pokémon Scarlet chasing Gimmighoul and Chesnaught.
How far along are you in TotK?
And good luck with Gimmighoul and Chesnaught!
After 100 hours I’ve completed 2 of the 4 temples and gathered all the memories. Besides that I’ve just been completing shrines and doing some side quests.
Also thanks, I really want a shiny Gimmighoul.
Wow, 100 hours and just 2 temples, you are doing some real exploration.
Most of the time I end up getting lost in the world chasing a shrine or some landmark
Haha, that’s the real fun of the game.
Unsighted! I saw it on the hidden gems section of the e-shop yesterday.
I’m waiting until my wife beats BotW before diving into TotK
Just checked out Unsighted, looks pretty good, went to add it to my wishlist and it was already there 😀 I don’t even remember when I added it. How are you enjoying it?
If you are playing BOTW too, I would suggest not jumping in TotK right away, it can cause burn out, but if you weren’t playing that should be fine.
More TotK for me, with a high level of avoiding the main questline.
I’m playing Pikmin 1 HD (I couldn’t really wait for the physical edition as I had previously stated). I’m having a blast so far, played 6 days and got 10 spaceship pieces.
I remember being terrified of the time constraint in the game (30 days to get 30 pieces) when I first played it 20 years ago, but my experience with Pikmin 3 makes the game really much more manageable and enjoyable now. The Switch version, even if it’s a simple HD port with some very minor tweaks, is really enjoyable.
Looking forward to starting Pikmin 2 HD, probably next week.
Yeah, I was a bit on the fence about 1 & 2, but KotActually made a post about it yesterday, giving a mini review on the state of Pikmin 1, and I am quite excited about it now.
Looking forward to finally have the time to play it.
Just like last week, minesweeper for me. Great classic.
Minesweeper is a pretty good game. Which one are you playing? The one included with Windows? Or some other version?
If Microsoft started releasing DLC for Minesweeper they’d make more money than the Acti-Bliz acquisition will ever make them.
I think I’ve decided to place Diablo 4 and TotK on the back burner and get back to the Xenoblade 3 DLC. I didn’t get far in because of TotK (which I have a lot left to play as well) so it’ll be nice to focus on that for a bit.
Mario party for switch.
I am concentrating on tackling my backlog! This week I’m prioritizing Varriable Barricade, Amnesia memories and maybe a few routes from The crimson flower
A wide range of games!
It’s nice to keep the backlog short, just don’t force yourself to play anything, that burns you out.
Ended up getting sick and playing nothing :( but definitely not planning on burning out will take my time and enjoy the games :)
About to finish 13 sentinels & got spiritfarer and both portals in queue.
Spiritfarer and Portal 1 & 2 are all great games. Have fun!
How are you liking 13 Sentinels? It’s on my wish list.
If you’re into the (primarily sci-fi) story, it’s really good. Bit confusing gameplay-wise in the beginning, but clears up quickly and them becomes confusing story-wise, which actually is kinda the point. I liked it a lot, even the battles which seem to be the part most complained about. I would however suggest picking it up on sale and not paying full price as it’s not exactly replayable.
Ah okay. Thanks for the info.
Hopefully a full weekend of Baldurs Gate 3.
Have fun!
BTW You have posted on a very old thread though. Our weekly thread is pinned on the main page of community. This one is more than a month old.
Deaths Door for me! Almost halfway through. Finished Tunic a few weeks ago and this has been a good follow-up to that
Great couple of games. Both are on my list, would like to play them soon.
How did you like them both?
Really good. I could barely put tunic down at some points.
Prepare to die a lot in both.
Slowly collecting all the rare crops in Story of Seasons AWL. I wish I started earlier cause they make good money.
I didn’t even know there is anything like rare crop in Story of Seasons.
How are you enjoying the game?
Yeah there’s a ton it’s just really tedious if you want a lot unless you start early and use the seed maker. I’m still addicted to the game tho especially since my son is now a teenager and picking his career
Ah, okay. Got it. Thanks! Though I am not sure if you are talking about your actual son, or in-game one. 😀
