Hello Everyone!

I finally finished The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. Took about 90 hours, and still have a lot left to do, but wanted to find out the full story, so finished the main quest. I liked the story a lot more than BotW. If you have already finished it, what did you think about the story? (without giving away any spoilers). Going to keep playing this as my primary game for a while though, while also thinking about which game to start next.

Secondary games:

  • Finished Marvel's Avengers. Nothing new to say about it. It could've been a very good game, if not for Live Service elements.
  • Almost finished Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder's Revenge. I am at stage 14, so just couple of them left. Will check the trophies after finishing the game and see if I want to platinum it. Only playing it with my kid, so going a bit slowly.
  • Started The Order 1886, it's a very small games, 4-5 hours at most, but didn't get much time to play after starting it, would try to finish it. The games holds up really well visually and gameplay vise.
  • I have committed to Monster Hunter: World now. Going to finish it, no matter how long it takes. Until now, I was only playing it with friends, but would try to do some optional stuff solo too, now that TotK is finished.

That's all for now. What about all of you? What are you playing? And what do you plan to play next? And how are you enjoying them?

Nice! How are you liking the game? I am still playing three houses, and am on my first house. (Well technically, the game is paused, and haven't touched it since TotK released, but will get back to it eventually).

Have you played three houses? How would you compare the two?

FE engage is great. It feels really strategic, compact maps with powerful terrain effects and chokepoints to take advantage of, units don't have a lot of movement, positioning and formation can let you do a lot of cool plays.

The new mechanics, chain attack and break, are very powerful and interesting to play around both on player phase and enemy phase.

The Emblems have some really powerful effects between AoE dance, AoE warp, a billion range nuke, +500 movement on one of your characters, and some other combat steroids. There are a lot of options and I think the game is fun on any difficulty.

The story... uhhh, I liked when the Fire Emblem: Engaged. The plot is very generic and pretty much the same as a plurality of previous fire emblem plots. I don't think that's necessarily a bad thing.

Hmm... thanks for the detailed response.

I am loving the battles in FE: 3H, but the monastery parts are a bit boring. I have reached the paralogue

spoilerThe mission where you go to village where people are attacking each other
which I think isn't that much into the story, but I haven't been able to hire any single student from another house. Which also makes me think maybe I am not playing that part correctly.
