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?

    I’m still immersed in the world of TotK, squeezing in gaming sessions whenever I find a spare moment. Surprisingly, despite investing a considerable amount of time, I’m “only” 40 hours into the game.

      Haha, I had an opposite experience. I thought I am not playing it at all, might be 20-30 hours at most, then checked and was at 50 hours. The game feels immersive so don’t even realize how much time I have put into it.

    Since I finished TotK last week (got 100 hours out of the game), I decided to take a break from it for a while and instead focus on my switch backlog.

    I’m about to finish a game called In Other Waters. What I initially thought would be just a chill exploration game became a really immersive narrative experience with turn of events which really caught me off guard. I’m definitely interested in more games from the developer, I heard great things about their subsequent game Citizen Sleeper.

    Other than that, I started playing Blaster Master Zero 2. I played the first one last year and really enjoyed my time with it, and the sequel so far seems to be as good as the first one.

    Outside of Nintendo ecosystem, I’ll also probably boot up PS5 for a few hours and try to get more trophies out of Unravel 2.

    I am keeping up with TotK. Well over 100 hours but I may spend some time in Pokémon Scarlet chasing Gimmighoul and Chesnaught.

        After 100 hours I’ve completed 2 of the 4 temples and gathered all the memories. Besides that I’ve just been completing shrines and doing some side quests.

        Also thanks, I really want a shiny Gimmighoul.

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

    Deaths Door for me! Almost halfway through. Finished Tunic a few weeks ago and this has been a good follow-up to that

    Slowly collecting all the rare crops in Story of Seasons AWL. I wish I started earlier cause they make good money.

      I didn’t even know there is anything like rare crop in Story of Seasons.

      How are you enjoying the game?

        Yeah there’s a ton it’s just really tedious if you want a lot unless you start early and use the seed maker. I’m still addicted to the game tho especially since my son is now a teenager and picking his career

          Ah, okay. Got it. Thanks! Though I am not sure if you are talking about your actual son, or in-game one. 😀

      Have fun!

      BTW You have posted on a very old thread though. Our weekly thread is pinned on the main page of community. This one is more than a month old.

    ToTK, spending a lot of time not doing the main quests.

    Finishing up FFVII Remake Intermission before I start FFXVI as the other game I’m juggling in the not-much free time I have had lately.

    Found this hidden gem (for me at least) “Bayonetta Origins: Cereza and the Lost Demon” really like this game.

    Have been thinking to try out other Bayonetta’s too, even thought they are different style of games.

      Yeah, I don’t think it’s a hidden gem, but I haven’t seen many people play it. How are you liking the game.

      I am in the opposite boat, I have played the other Bayonetta (thought only the first one) but not the Cereza and the Lost Demon.

        I first tried the demo of the game. Didnt expect to like it, but found myself really enjoying the art style and specially story. Havent finished the game yet, sadly I dont have as much time to playing games as I use to.

          Happens to all of us, don’t worry about it.

          I’ll give the demo a try, once I have gone through Bayonetta 2 and 3. Thanks for the heads up.

      Same here. Finished Xenoblade Chronicles in 6+ months. Though, when the game takes over a month or so, I usually add some smaller games to mix.

      How far along are you? and how are you liking it?

        Love it. It’s basically the same game as Breath of the wild, but the underground and sky island increase the map even more. Then the added building and fusing weapons makes it way more fun to play. I’ve finished the first three temples and am on to the last now.

    Unsighted! I saw it on the hidden gems section of the e-shop yesterday.

    I’m waiting until my wife beats BotW before diving into TotK
