Well, unlike my plan to return to Dragon Quest XI, I wanted to play another action game, so started Nioh. The game is even more difficult than Demon’s Souls, but I am really enjoying it.

What about all of you? What have you been playing?

    LoZ Links Awakening remake, which is just lovely. After I finish that I have to get to Metroid Dread.

      Link’s Awakening is really great. I have never played the original but had lots of fun when playing the remake. And Metroid Dread is even better. One of the most polished game I had played in a while.

    Mario Wonder. Only the special world left and some big purple coins that I am not sure I’ll do them for now. Besides that I’ll play some Pokémon Scarlet as a raid with Typholsion, one my favourite Pokémon, is up. Might boot up splatoon 3 here and there. Using it as a break kinda.

        I will probably not start anything big anytime soon as I do not have that much free time between my studies and work. The next game I would like to try is the Mario RPG remake but I won’t buy it on release.

          I am itching for an RPG on Switch, one of the reason I skipped Wonder was to get Super Mario RPG, but I also have many, years old, RPGs on my wishlist yet to play, so I may just skip Super Mario RPG and get one of the others… let’s see.

      I still have half the content from Booster packs that I haven’t played yet. What’s your course “set”?

    I’m playing Disco Elysium. It’s made me laugh more than I thought it would for a bleak looking detective game.

      This game doesn’t look that it could make anyone laugh… One of the reason I still haven’t played it is because it looks too bleak and depressing, and I haven’t been able to get myself in the mindset to play such a game.

        The writing and dialog choices can be really funny at times, but yes the backdrop of the game is very bleak and cold. I had to wait till I was in a good place before I tried it.

    Been playing Cereza & The Lost Demon (hella cute.) Though after reading someone talk about it, I might break back out Wolfenstein II.

        Really enjoying it. It’s VERY different from Bayonetta, (I have only played 1,) but still good. Tbh with how hypersexualized Bayonetta is, that was a worry going into a game featuring the same character as a tween.

        The Brothers A Tale of siblings movement with the painterly art style and fairy tale vibes are all really good. Cereza and Cheshire work well as characters.

        Dunno if it’s woth the Nintendo tax, but I got it a lot cheaper on ebay. Worth it then.

    Final Fantasy 6. I’ve played five other Final Fantasy games for the first time over the last 18 months (7, Crisis Core Reunion, 3, 4, 5), but this will be my last one for awhile. I need a break from random battles!

      Wow, that’s a lot.

      I am not a fan of random battles, and that is one of the biggest reason I skip the older games now, (second is the amount of grind some of those games require). What is your favourite Final Fantasy yet?

        From this list it would be Final Fantasy 5, because of its similarities to the Final Fantasy Tactics games, which I adore. I really loved 5. Final Fantasy 7 is probably the better overall game from the perspective of ambitious goals versus what it achieved, but I had a lot more fun with 5.

        I still haven’t played any mainline Final Fantasy game after 7 (except for a few hours of 8), but with all the various sequels I’ll get to 16 eventually! Well, it’ll probably be 17 at this rate.

          Heh. I want to play the starting Final Fantasy games, specially since I have heard you can speed them by 4x in the pixel-remaster collection.

    The plan was to continue Witch on the Holy Night, but I was extremely tired after the long trips I mentioned last week, and had a ton of things going on at work so I could not find the energy for it.

    I did however play a little bit of Radiant Silvergun, been trying to get to the end even if only on Very Easy. Rotating between Arcade and Story modes. not sure which one I’ll be able to finish first.
