Still Playing Atelier Ryza: Ever Darkness & the Secret Hideout as my primary game. I think I should be in the later half of the story, not sure though. Pretty much just playing this now, so should be able to finish it soon-ish.

One exception though, with all the Donkey Kong drops, I started Donkey Kong Country 2 (NSO SNES) again. And I don't know what issue I had last time, but this time I was able to clear the first area pretty easily. Died couple of times in last level, but other than that it was pretty simple. I didn't find all the secrets though. Only 2 DK tokens, though got most of the KONG letters, not sure about other secrets, but I am sure I missed some.

Stopped playing at first level of the second area / world. The lava one. Only started it on impulse and may play it a bit here or there, but will return to it seriously only after finishing Atelier Ryza. I really enjoyed playing it though, hope difficulty won't spike too much as the game progresses.

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

Cool, planning to get it soon? It's nice to see the game getting good reviews.

So far it's been amazing. Its like being in an Indiana movie, and still being in control. Plus you get to beat up baddies! There is also SO MUCH content (and I have only traveled to two locations!). Totally engaging.

You can expect Indiana dry/wry humor and all. It is all there.

IMO worth every $. (I'm a PC gamer first, it's a shame it wont come out on PS5 until next year, not that I have one. It will never come out on Switch, there is no way it could handle it).

DL from Steam was 100GB+

That's great to hear. I am looking forward to it. Not a big fan of first person view in the game, but Fallout won me over when they went from isometric to first person, so going to give it a proper shot too.

And yeah, it will never come to Switch, but if it's coming to Series S, it may be able to come to Switch 2, but only time will tell.

I am very patient gamer though, so one year delay (for PS5) doesn't mean much to me, I am still playing games from 2015 (just finished 2014 with Metro Redux couple of months back)
