Hello Everyone,

This week passed way too quickly. It seems like I didn’t do much. There aren’t any significant updates form my side.

Still playing The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, thought I would be able to finish it but I couldn’t. So, no changes here.

In non-nintendo gaming, still playing the same games, without much change:

  • Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder’s Revenge
  • Monster Hunter: World
  • Marvel’s Avengers

For Marvel’s Avengers, the game started strong, but went downhill quickly due to all the Live Service elements. It could’ve been a fun game if they had stuck with single player. I am near the end of main campaign, and will delete it as soon as I complete it. Probably just need 2-3 hours more.

That’s all from my side, what about you guys? What are you playing? And how are you enjoying it?

          Ah, I am near the end of main quest, have spent dozens of hours on side quests and exploration too. You are still in the beginning so not going to spoil anything. 😀 But if you want any information or help, you can hit me up.

    You’re not alone on TotK. I’m still working on it too. Been taking my time to enjoy it, and the number of hours of gaming time isn’t what it once was.

      Yeah, this isn’t the kind of game you should rush through. As for gaming time, that’s the issue with growing up, but the good thing is, whenever you have time, there are games waiting for you.

      Since I’m going on vacation tomorrow, I ended up finally beating the boss today, but I do want to find all the armor pieces too yeah… Will see if I keep going after my trip, or if I end up being distracted by other games. (Which is why I usually try to avoid beating the end bosses in games before I’ve done all/most of the sidequests)

      I got the Master Detective Archives: Rain Code collector’s edition waiting for me (new game by the Danganronpa team)

        I am the same, let’s see if it holds my attention after beating the final boss. I want to complete most of the side quests.

      It does! And most of it’s optional, so if someone doesn’t want to explore it, they can just ignore it.

      How far along are you? And how many hours have you spent?

    I’ve been mainly playing Zelda and ignoring main quests as much as I can. But this weekend I’ll play the new splatfest in splatoon

      Splatoon is one of those game that I really want to play, but never end up getting it cause I don’t play multiplayer much, and don’t have any friends who are interested in playing it.

      How are you enjoying it? Do yo play it with friends or just random players?

      As for Zelda, I was doing mix of main quest and exploration, but have recently jumped straight into the main quest, want to know the full story! 😀

        I was the same about splatoon initially. I rarely play any multiplayer games so I was a bit sceptical at first. But gameplay looked fun so I decided to give it a try and it was a blast. I have so much fun playing it even though I am relatively bad at it. I play with randos because I don’t know a single person irl who has a switch besides a coworker of mine. He doesn’t play splatoon btw.

        As for Zelda, I am going in waves. Did the first sky island and then a bunch of exploration, then decided to dive into the story and collected all the memories and did 2 temples, I then returned to random exploration until I tried to do both last temples but I gave up midway as I got sidetracked by other stuff.

          Nice. Glad you are enjoying it!

          Off topic, but how do you find using mastodon account to follow lemmy communities, isn’t the noise level too high?

    I want to try out the Pikmin 4 demo and finally launch Mario Rabbids Kingdom Battle. I bought it ages ago, but haven’t even tried it yet. I have a disgusting backlog. But this weekend, I want to give my Switch some love.

      Well, I have stopped impulse buying of games. No matter how many good or great sales pass me by, I don’t buy a game, until I reach the point where I say, “I’ll play this game next”.

      Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle is a great game BTW, highly recommended. If you like it, also get the DLC.

    I am almost done with Pokemon Ultra Sun and will be starting Signalis this weekend; I don’t usually play a lot of horror games anymore but this one reminds of me the older Resident Evil and Silent Hill games.

        Ah, I am not a very good gamer either, even though I have been playing for more than 30 years 😃

        Good luck with the boss!

        Yeah same! I heard they might just be ported and touched up like Pikmin 1+2, but I hope because the first remaster was such a hit the other two get the same treatment!

      I haven’t actually. I was playing Xenoblade Chronicles 3 when they shadow dropped it, and now playing Tears of the Kingdom. It’s very high on my list though. Will probably play it within this year.

      Have you played the original? Or remake is the first time you are experiencing it?

        Oh nice! I’ve never played a Xenoblade game and have been really curious about 3. And Prime is what I jumped to after TOTK.

        I played the original Prime in high school, but just did not have the skills or awareness to get anywhere with it, so while I remember it vaguely, this might as well be the first time I’ve played it haha.

    Also slowly wrapping up TotK, trying to savor it as I wrap up final shrines and things. Besides that I’ve started another run of Minish Cap in the virtual GBA which is a blast. Messing around with Infinite Fusion has also been really fun

      How are you enjoying Tony Hawk Pro Skater? I have heard some people say 1 and 2 are best of the series. Is that true?

      And how far along are you in TotK?

        I love it! I actually play more Tony Hawk than TOTK! The progress tracking across the different pro skaters and challenges is what keeps me going. That adds so much replayability.

        I’m only ~10hrs into TOTK…

          Nice. Well, as long as you are enjoying what you are playing, what does it matter which game you are playing more or less. 😀

          Have fun!

    Probably Tetris 99 (my go to “I just want to zone out and play” game), and I might pick TotK back up (I’m really early in the game). I bought The House in Fata Morgana last month and haven’t started it yet, so I’ve got that for an option too.

      Congratulations! Welcome to the Nintendo Family!

      Animal Crossing is a very addicting game, if you like these kind of games. Even my non-gamer wife has over 150 hours in it.

      Oooh, starting BotW for the first time. Enjoy the experience!
