Finished Dragon Age: Inquisition! Interesting ending. Got me excited for Dragon Age: The Veilguard.
Dropped The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. It was fun, but then it stopped being fun. May visit it again some day, when I am in a correct headspace for the game.
Started Borderlands 3 (on PS5), played just a little bit yet, liked the gunplay and combat, haven’t made up my mind on the rest of the game.
Still playing Horizon Chase Turbo, nothing new to add there.
Finished Golf Story. It was a nice little game. I started it thinking it of as an RPG-lite, but it wasn’t much of RPG. There were quests and leveling up, but most game have some kind of leveling up these days. I would just consider it a narrative sports games.
Started Hades. I am not a roguelike (or roguelite) fan, have never finished any, even though I have tried a few, so not sure how long I’ll play this, but liking it so far. Have reached Elysium in over a dozen tries, not sure what kind of player that makes me. I am best with bow, shooting from far. Going to continue this for a while at least.
Also started Valkyria Chronicles, makes a good combo with Hades. A turn-based narrative game vs an action roguelike. In Chapter 4, which has the first big mission.
Phew, that was lots of games.
What about all of you? What have you been playing?
I completed Yakuza Kiwami 2 today. When I was done with all the side content, I realized there weren’t any awful achievements to stop me from completing it, so I ran through a New Game Plus on the highest difficulty with the overpowered infinite ammo gun from postgame. Turns out, skipping all optional content and cutscenes, you can beat the game in a couple of hours. I don’t understand why the gun makes enemies ragdoll as much as it does, but that was part of the fun for sure. Not truly completing the previous two games was a bummer because I really liked them, but it was just too much.
And all respect to anyone who can beat Jo Amon legitimately. I was never that great at Yakuza combat to begin with, but that guy does way too much damage! He’s the reason I learned about that gun to begin with.
The next game I am replacing this with… is a game I’m not going to talk about much. It’s the kind of game you can’t even begin to talk about without spoiler tags, so I just won’t even mention it until it’s done. And briefly at that.
Played a little more of Paper Mario, I took a peek at the Prince Mush fight. I didn’t expect to win, but I also didn’t expect to run from the fight after his first attack. I tossed out the protect shell just to scout what he would even do and let’s just say I’ll have to do some preparations to make this work in a 10HP run. Let’s see what badges I end up with at the end of the game, I won’t try this again a second earlier!
Come on, you can’t just say all that and then not mention the game. At least mention the name 😀
