Hello Everyone!

Didn't get to play much this week. And haven't really started anything new.

  • Played a few levels of New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe, not much though, still on the same water world.
  • Played Dragon Quest XI for couple of hours, going to continue playing that.
  • Reached High Rank in Monster Hunter: World but now I am stuck at Pink Rathian, maybe I need to improve my equipment, or maybe I should cave and fire that SOS flare.
  • Playing a bit of Brotato before sleep, if I am not tired. Finally cleared it once, now trying other characters and weapon combinations. A combination of guns has been working out great for me though. All guns, all different type, and focusing on increasing ranged attack.

That's all from me, what about you guys? What have you been playing?

Breath of the wild (I know I’m late!) then moving to super Mario sunshine and then octopath traveler :)

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I’m excited to play Octopath at some point. I’m probably going to start with the second one. Heard it was better and the stories between 1 and 2 aren’t really dependent on each other.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Yeah, I have heard the same, but if you plan to play both, it might be difficult to go back. 2 is definitely much better though.

I got BotW for Christmas back in 2019 and only just finished it a few months ago lol. I was just happy to finally understand all the memes!

My 4 year old and I started playing Mario Sunshine recently, too, and it's a lot of fun. Definitely one of the more challenging Mario games, but not as big as some made it seem. Very fun.

Did you regularly played the game for 3.5 years? Or stopped played and resumed recently?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Played it for like 30 minutes, but never found the time to dedicate to it. Then over Christmas last year I finally had the chance to dedicate to it.

Ah, nice! Any plans to play TotK any time soon? Or going to give it a gap of couple of years?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Probably get it for my birthday and then not play it for a few years. 😁 But really, I want to get it, but it's $90 here and I just can't justify that. I'll probably wait a few years for it to finally drop to $70 then get it. Lol. Also, I keep telling myself I should get through my backlog of games before I buy more...

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

I fully support playing through the backlog before buying new games, but you also shouldn't force yourself. When I finish a game, I go through the list of all the games I have (don't have much bought games in my backlog, but with PS+ and NSO classic games, have quite a big library of games that I can play without paying), and see which one I feel like playing, and then start that.

Of course, sometimes you want to play a specific game, and just get it, but in general, I try to keep my buying games at minimal.

As long as you are enjoying the game, doesn't matter when you are playing it. I still have games for 2014 on my to-play list. So, are you enjoying it?

Also, nice list of games!
