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?

My wife and I have beaten NSMBU multiple times at this point. ~~She~~ We love it! lol. I never got into Monster Hunter or Dragon Quest at all but I've always been intrigued. Going to check out Brotato soon.

Brotato is somewhat similar to Vampire Survivors, you probably read our discussion when I shared the Brotato launch trailer.

Did you guys get any game over sceen? I haven't gotten one yet, but I think if it kept going like this, I may have to go play some older levels to farm some 1ups.

Monster Hunter requires ton of grinding, but if you end up liking the genre, it's very addicting. And as for Dragon Quest, they are your traditional, turn based JRPGs. I am really enjoying it.

It has been awhile but I think if you get a game over you have to start the current world over again. You don't go back to 1-1. Each castle is also a save point. And you get unlimited game overs.

Yeah, not trying to grind much these days. And as far as turn based...I'm going to be having that itch scratched by BG3 soon enough.

Ah, that's good to know. I was afraid it might just be full game over if I lose all my lives.

I was itching to start Divinity: Original Sin yesterday, but stopped myself. Will start it after finishing DQ XI.
