Still playing Dragon Age: Inquisition, nothing more to say about it. Though, while the game is still fun, I think my stamina for 50+ hours games has gone really down. I am about 65 hours in. I think I can do 10 or so more hours without much issue, hopefully I'll be near the end by then.

Played some more of The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. Cleared the first temple, and now clearing the second temple, I am quite sure I have cleared more than half of it. Should reach the third temple over the weekend.

One interesting thing is, Ocarina of Time has interesting dungeons and kinda meh overworld, which is opposite of BotW and TotK.

I also started couple of "side-games". Horizon Chase Turbo a no nonsense arcade racing game, it's just race after race, without any other shenanigans. I have only played the first area, so not sure if I will keep liking it, but for now I am enjoying it.

Also started Golf Story. This has been on my wishlist since Switch's launch year. A lite-RPG / golf game. I am not really a big golf fan, but I am enjoying it in this game.

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

Oh, I really enjoyed Horizon Chase Turbo, really fun. I used to play Top Gear on the SNES and it brought back memories. The music is amazing! Horizon Chase Turbo 2 on the other hand is absolutely crap on Switch (and from what I've heard, not much better on PC or other consoles). The Brazilian studio that developed it, Aquiris, was acquired by Epic and it all went downhill from there :( The first one is still awesome though and I still prefer it to the (broken) second one.

I got bored of Perfect Dark. I was having so much fun, but I definitely lost it at some point. Hopefully I'll pick it up again some time soon so I can finish it.

I'm playing a new Story Mode run of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder's Revenge, it's just such a fun game! I haven't finished it with all the characters yet.

I also played some Gravity Circuit, which is super cool but also a bit hard? I think because I'm getting old, but I need to be in a certain mood to enjoy it.

Oh, didn't know that about studio or Horizon Chase Turbo 2. Well, I can at least enjoy this one.

Shredder's Revenge is really good. Do you play solo or co-op?

[–] picandocodigo 2 points 4 months ago

I've been playing solo this time around, but I finished the story on co-op previously. Been doing some survival mode too!
