Started the next route in Fire Emblem: Three Houses, which is the second / hidden route in Black Eagle route. Already have a separate save at the fork point, so continued with that.
It’s interesting to see the different point of view of things, and now that I have some experience with game mechanics I am trying out different classes for some of the characters. The fork point is far enough in the game that drastic changes won’t be possible, but still, some changes can be done, and it’s fun exploring that.
Started Mutant Mudd Collection on Switch, for the times when Age of Calamity becomes too repetitive and want to play something else.
It’s a 2D platformer which was originally released on 3DS and the game is tough! You have to complete each level at least twice, one is the main path, and one is the alternate, more difficult path. I am having trouble enough with normal path so not sure if I’ll be able to handle the difficult paths.
The difficultly is still within my playable range, even though I die a ton at certain places. Let’s see how long I stick with it.
Played a bit of Hyrle Warriors: Age of Calamity and am having trouble with some of the Timed missions, may have to level up some more, will try them again later.
Didn’t play much Cozy Grove this week, will get back to slowly chipping away at it from next week.
I haven’t started anything on PlayStation cause I wanted to start Dark Souls Remastered and was waiting for a sale (as per dekudeals it regularly does go to sale).
And as it happens, it just went on sale! So just bought the game and have downloaded it. Will probably be playing it over the weekend. Time to see if I can finish it or it will be another game that I’ll be dropping halfway through 😀
What about all of you? What have you been playing and/or plan to play?
Playing Super Robot Taisen Y!
Same update as last week, finished a few more missions but still in Chapter 6.
Playing Nine Sols!
Reached the final boss… and it’s kicking my ass. 😄 Really cool battle though, love the way they use some of the same moves your main character have.
Minor final boss spoilers
Which makes a lot of sense, you’re dueling against the one who taught you to fight.
I want to try to beat it without lowering difficulty, but I need time to sit down and have a good and long “practice session” to learn its patterns and could not do it during the week. But might be able to take that time tomorrow.
Playing Super Mario Galaxy 2!
I had finished the first game way back on the Wii, but had never played the second one properly. And what a great game, stages are very creative and unique, music is great, and despite its age still plays quite well.
One thing to notice is that these games originally made use of the pointer functionality on the Wii, which had to be adapted in the Switch port to use either use gyro controls or touchscreen. The former is a decent approximation and works well when playing docked, but both options felt somewhat clunky when playing handheld.
This game can be pretty damn hard at times, those optional “Prankster Comet” got me a few game overs already. But I’m having a blast with it, and just reached the World 3 castle.
Glad to see they still hold up well. Plan to play both Galaxy and Galaxy 2 soon. Maybe after Metroid Prime 4
