Hello Everyone!

Didn't get to play much this week. And haven't really started anything new.

  • Played a few levels of New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe, not much though, still on the same water world.
  • Played Dragon Quest XI for couple of hours, going to continue playing that.
  • Reached High Rank in Monster Hunter: World but now I am stuck at Pink Rathian, maybe I need to improve my equipment, or maybe I should cave and fire that SOS flare.
  • Playing a bit of Brotato before sleep, if I am not tired. Finally cleared it once, now trying other characters and weapon combinations. A combination of guns has been working out great for me though. All guns, all different type, and focusing on increasing ranged attack.

That's all from me, what about you guys? What have you been playing?

Been playing through a lot of Oracle of Seasons, I love 2D Zelda so I've been enjoying it a lot. The puzzles require a bit of thinking but are easy to complete. The season changing mechanic is also pretty cool. Currently on the 5th dungeon, Unicorn's Cave. I think that places me around somewhere halfway through the game?

Mario Kart 8 Deluxe is always fun to sit down and play for a bit. Love the series, ever since playing Double Dash as a kid.

Also have been thinking about restarting FE: Three Houses lately, loved what I played during my first playthrough, but life happened and eventually began playing less and never got around to completing the game. Honestly would rather start up a new playthrough instead of trying to remember everything that had happened leading up to where I last saved.

I've also begun an obsession with Pikmin. Up until the demo for Pikmin 4 released I had never played any of the games, but it's got me absolutely hooked. Unfortunately can't afford Nintendo's usual $60 at the moment, so I've been making due with 4's demo. Definitely going to be my first purchase once I get things in order.

I have been hearing good things about Oracle of Seasons / Ages, glad you are enjoying them.

I have FE: Three Houses on pause. I love the combat, but the monastery stuff feels a bit of chore, and I was in about my 7th or 8th month, and not even close to recruiting anyone, so it kept making me feel I am missing out on stuff, and not playing properly. Still, going to get back to it once I clear a few games, as the combat was really fun.

Good luck with Pikmin, hope the things get sorted out for you soon.
