There's no change in my games this week.

Still playing Greedfall. I am starting to like the game more now. There were some surprises in narrative, which I wasn't expecting, and your choices can effect outcomes of different things, which I also wasn't expecting.

Had to stop playing at an interesting place, so excited to play over the weekend to find how the story progresses.

Earthlock is still my primary Switch game. Nothing to add here. It's a nice, modern JRPG. Still playing it, still enjoying it.

I was right about Trails in the Sky: Second Chapter last week. I was in the final dungeon of first chapter. Finished that, and just started the second chapter. Fortunately it didn't expire my remaining side-quest, so finished them all before going to next region for chapter two. Playing it slowly, cause I want to finish Earthlock before Zelda release, so this is going to take a few months to finish.

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

Ah, it's annoying when a game you love change those things in the sequel. Hope rest of the game makes it worth your time.

I played Tomb Raider on PS3 and remember liking it a lot. Though I had only played the first Uncharted by then, so can't compare it with other similar games. Haven't played the sequels yet, but they are both on my backlog.

As for the trophies. I used to be a bit of a trophy hunter back then, I worked REALLY hard for them. I recall the quickest way was to play multiplayer PvP alone, and keep collecting stuff. I spent quite a few hours on it, and then calculated that I would need around 20 (don't remember exact amount) or more hours of doing that, and I just gave up. Have only 2 last trophies left.

This was also the first step of me stop caring about the trophies. Now I only care for them if I am really liking the game, and spending just a tiny bit of time more, or doing some side stuff along the way will help me get the Platinum, otherwise I just ignore them completely.

Good luck for the search for new game.
