Wait, where did Friday go? I think this week had one less day! Well, better later than never.

Finished Astral Chain, played couple of post-game arena-combat missions, but ignored the rest.

Overall, a very good game, the story wasn’t anything out of the world (except literally speaking), but it wasn’t anything bad either. The gameplay and combat was really good.

Also, I want a Lappy plushie now!


Finished Nier Replicant completely. Well, first two endings. Didn’t want to replay just to watch 3-4 different scenes, so watched those on the YouTube.

Combat and gameplay is good, but quests are very grindy and fetch quest heavy, I think I already mentioned this, people would ask 10 of something that’s a random drop in a specific dungeon, and going through whole dungeon would drop it maybe once or twice, so you have to go through it five times. And that’s one person’s request.

Story was really interesting though. And not counting the quests system, enjoyed the game. Looking forward to playing Automata and see where they take it from here.


Started (well resumed from World 2) and finished Donkey Kong Country 2. The game started easy enough but got pretty tough in further stages. If it weren’t for save states I would have never been able to finish it. Probably died about a 1000 times. Near the end I started saving after every small section.

Though it wasn’t a constant difficulty, even in last world, there were couple of stages that felt easy enough. The last boss was pretty difficult though, specially in the last phase, dunno how many times I died on that.


Now playing Xenoblade Chronicles 3: Future Redeemed. Just started it, so will write more about it next week.


So, what about all you? What have you been playing?

    I randomly started playing Death Stranding again. I’ve finished it before a few years ago and it’s a great game but playing it now on hard difficulty with no assists items or lethal weapons makes it more survival like and it is even better.

        I haven’t been excited for a game (DS2) in a long long time. If only I could afford and justify buying a PS5 though :/

          It will come to PC eventually, if you can wait. Unless it’s very important for you to play on launch, just relax and wait.
