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?

Wolfenstein, Half Dead, & Ray Man!

[–] slimerancher@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

Which ones? The first Wolfenstein and Half Dead? And what about Rayman? Playing them all on PC?

I've paused ToTK for a week or so (35 hours in, only 1 regional questo done lmao) but I may resume this weekend. I need to catch up or I'll never finish that game at this rate, wish I had more time...

Other than that, eventually I want to give MH: Rise another try. Bought it on switch when it came out, played it for a week then dropped.

Just like last week, minesweeper for me. Great classic.

[–] slimerancher@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Minesweeper is a pretty good game. Which one are you playing? The one included with Windows? Or some other version?

Still playing Tears of The Kingdom myself, 225 hours in I have one last temple and a few side quests here and there so I'm almost done with it and I have no idea what I'll be doing next lol.

[–] Dark_Blade@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

Pokémon Sword, surprisingly enough! Still have some Dynamax Adventures to wrap up. Aside from that, I'll probably sweep my SV raids to see if I can land a shiny Gimmighoul, then go back to TotK.

[–] EphTen@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

I've been playing TotK since release, and it finally feels like I'm approaching the end of the main quest. I'm not quite ready to be done yet, though: I wanna at least complete all shrines!

[–] WheatleyInc@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Paper Mario the Thousand Year Door. I prefer the GameCube and Wii era because my childhood.

[–] Ippei@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Really fun game. Personally, I like the newer ones as well (especially Origami King) but I take them for what they are: a different series by the same name. Although I'm probably a bit of a heretic since Super Paper Mario is my favorite.

[–] WheatleyInc@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

I actually did get Origami King on release year, it's the best of the new games for sure. I did play Super Paper Mario a while back as well. I remember liking the flip mechanic, and that it had the best story.

[–] fruity@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago (3 children)

About to finish 13 sentinels & got spiritfarer and both portals in queue.

I'm 75% of the way through Advance Wars 2 (from the Advance Wars Reboot-Camp remake). I normally get ~3 levels done per play session, but the last stage of Yellow Comet was more difficult than usual. I'm thinking these last stages are just harder than all the earlier stages.

I might try a hard-mode run, or maybe I start playing competitive (erm... casual-level competitive. I dunno about beating the grandmasters in this game but I kinda wanna see where people are).

Played a lot of Mr. Suns Hat Box until I ran into a bug that sometimes spawns an invisible wall art the start of some levels. Since the invisible wall is effectively a death sentence for the character, and most of the game is playing with the risk/reward of character building, I'm just done with it.

I've also been enjoying Mini Motor Racing X. It's a fantastic port.

[–] flicker@kbin.social 1 points 2 years ago

I'm desperately trying to find time for TotK. I tried going to (end the game) and had to leave because I needed materials and meals. I managed to get extremely far in the game but work made progress impossible for the last two weeks...

[–] fax_of_the_shadow@kbin.social 1 points 2 years ago

Splitting my time between Cassette Beasts on Switch and D4 and FFXVI on ps5. Cassette Beasts is a great palate cleanser between heavier games.

[–] LucidDreamer@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

Mario party for switch.

[–] hoodlem@hoodlem.me 1 points 2 years ago

More Pokémon Violet for me. I’ve finished the game but I find raiding relaxing.

[–] MillenialGeezer@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

TOTK if I have the time. By far the best game I've played since BOTW.

[–] cities@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

I am still playing Tears of the Kingdom when I have time to play and I don't foresee that changing anytime soon

[–] Vatw@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

Still ToTK. I started strong when it first came out, but haven't had as much time until recently.

[–] picandocodigo@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

I keep playing TotK and I'm also 65 hours in. I'm taking my time exploring, doing side quests and shrines every now and then. I haven't even been to the south west part of Hyrule!

I'll probably be playing Mortal Kombat 11 (just got all the DLC at 70% discount on the eshop today) and probably some Overcooked 2 or beat em ups with my girlfriend.

I'm supposed to be getting the physical version of Doom Eternal next week from Limited Run Games, looking forward to that!

[–] bread@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

I'm still mostly playing TOTK. I completed the main story earlier this week, and normally that would kind of trigger a switch in my brain to lose all interest in side quests, but somehow it's managed to keep me interested.

The direct reminded me that I have barely started Mario + Rabbids Kindgom Battle, so been playing that a bit too.

Then to wind down I've been getting closer and closer to completing the all the normal Picross puzzles in Picross S2

[–] mekkagodzilla@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I’m playing Pikmin 1 HD (I couldn't really wait for the physical edition as I had previously stated). I'm having a blast so far, played 6 days and got 10 spaceship pieces.

I remember being terrified of the time constraint in the game (30 days to get 30 pieces) when I first played it 20 years ago, but my experience with Pikmin 3 makes the game really much more manageable and enjoyable now. The Switch version, even if it's a simple HD port with some very minor tweaks, is really enjoyable.

Looking forward to starting Pikmin 2 HD, probably next week.

[–] slimerancher@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

Yeah, I was a bit on the fence about 1 & 2, but KotActually made a post about it yesterday, giving a mini review on the state of Pikmin 1, and I am quite excited about it now.

Looking forward to finally have the time to play it.

[–] cutecycle@lemmy.world 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

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

[–] slimerancher@lemmy.world 0 points 2 years ago (2 children)

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?

Monster Hunter World for sure.

[–] slimerancher@lemmy.world 0 points 2 years ago (4 children)

Nice! How far along are you? I just started it with a few friends, we are still in the start, just reached Tobi-Kadachi.

The co-op is a mess in this game, you all have to separately go on a mission, then watch cut scenes, then everyone except one needs to abandon quest, and join one person's quest. Hope Capcom makes it simpler in next versions.
