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?

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.

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. 😀

How are you enjoying both games? And how far along are you in Zelda?

Also, if you care about it, someone recently created a community for sharing “snaps” from Pokemon Snap. https://lemmy.world/c/pokemon_snap@lemmy.piperservers.net (Making a relative link doesn’t seem to be working at my end for some reason, so just shared the direct link)

Tears. I play games for a long time, so it’ll be another couple months with it.

Same here. Finished Xenoblade Chronicles in 6+ months. Though, when the game takes over a month or so, I usually add some smaller games to mix.

How far along are you? and how are you liking it?

Love it. It’s basically the same game as Breath of the wild, but the underground and sky island increase the map even more. Then the added building and fusing weapons makes it way more fun to play. I’ve finished the first three temples and am on to the last now.

Yeah, the new abilities make the game completely different.

Good luck with the last temple!

Etrian Odyssey at last, and Noob the factionless on ROG Ally + A Wonderful Life on ps5 later!

How is Noob the Factionless? It looks interesting, but I have no idea about the IP, and the trailer didn’t seems to explain much game play either.

Also, how are you finding ROG Ally? Heard there were lots of issues with the launch?

I’m not super far, but it seems neat so far! I know nothing about the media franchise, and wasn’t sure about the aesthetic, but there is this cozy 2008-mmo-cringe to it that I like. It’s a fairly standard JRPG

The ally has been great for me. I only use GOG, which works best on windows, so there was a lot of jank on steam deck. I know there’s been some controversy about performance with updates, but I’m not running tons of benchmarks or AAA. It’s been smooth so far!

That sounds fun, will give it a try when I get some time.

Glad to hear that it’s working great for you. It’s nice to see handhelds making a come back.

Found this hidden gem (for me at least) “Bayonetta Origins: Cereza and the Lost Demon” really like this game.

Have been thinking to try out other Bayonetta’s too, even thought they are different style of games.

I plan to continue playing original Metroid prime and start to play Super Mario Galaxy again.

Borrowed a couple games from a mate to see if I wanna buy them myself. Luigi’s Mansion 3 is a no, but will be buying Mario 3D + Browser’s Fury after payday. Also, usually fit in some time on Dorfromantik in the evenings or when stressed.

Why did you like Luigi Mansion 3?

Dorfromantik looks fun. Is it as relaxing as it looks?

@Sdot@lemmy.world

I just found it very slow. A lot of unskippable cut scenes. Yes! So relaxing.

Yeah, Luigi Mansion does have that issue. I didn’t notice it the first time, because I like to watch the cut scenes, but when I tried to replay it, I just couldn’t.

Thanks for the info, will add Dorfromantik to to my list!

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.
