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?

Still on my honor mode run of Baldurs gate 3, still in Act I. Doing this will 100% the achievements.... So I need to!

Without spoiling anything, is honor mode just hard-mode, or are there any other changes too?

[–] christov 2 points 7 months ago

It's the same game and no major changes to the story, but bosses have some legendary actions, it's more difficult to find things, long rests cost double, no save scumming, everything is more expensive etc. What i've found is accidentally failing a roll has caused some real problems for me down the line, the thing that can really screw you over is a bad roll rather than a tricky combat.
