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?
Still playing Xenoblade X. Finally reached level 50 to upgrade to stronger Skells, the old ones started to feel weak. And at this point I can definitely confirm that I appreciate the game more than I did on the Wii U. I passed the 100 hour mark, which is usually where I start getting tired of a game, but it hasn’t happened yet. On the Wii U, I had a much worse time because I front-loaded all the exploration as soon as I got the flight module. Patience is the way to go!
I’m adequately deep into Wild Arms 2 now and I have to say that this game is surprisingly easy. It already has a very low encounter rate for this era of RPGs and you can ‘cancel’ them if you’re a higher level than the enemy. I do that 95% of the time and I’m still strong enough to one-shot enemies with magic they resist. Even the bosses barely pose a challenge, especially when they have an elemental weakness. I wonder if that’s ever going to change?
I also picked up Pokemon Lazarus after some idiots gave it unintended publicity and it’s pretty good. I like how it’s a Gen3 romhack using Gen2 visuals, that’s very different from anything I’ve seen before! But I’m also learning that I can’t play normal Pokemon games the intended way anymore. If I don’t nuzlocke them, I have to pre-select a team of six and get them as soon as possible, and with the built-in cheat codes I was at least able to do that. I tried to play the vanilla way until the second gym, but I just can’t do patchwork teams anymore. And as an Infinite Fusion player, not having access to over 200.000 Pokemon just doesn’t feel right anymore. I’ve been spoiled, I can’t help it!
