Well, I was planning to Medieval Dynasty on PS5, with a friend, but due to PSN outage, couldn't do that. So, went back to playing Tomb Raider


Played quite a bit of Rise of the Tomb Raider, mostly focused on main story, though did any side stuff I came across, without going out of the way to search for all of them.

Not much new to say about it. Story seems to be nearing end, but I can be often wrong about these, so let's see. Unless Medieval Dynasty took too much of time, would try to finish this over the weekend.


Started Metroid Prime: Remastered, playing this as my primary game.

It's fun to play as Samus Arun in a 3D / First Person game. Game is very good, with the usual Nintendo polish, though it does feel dated in some aspects, mainly the map. There is no way to mark anything in the map, and it only shows you doors, so if you come across some blocked or unreachable passage, you can forget where it was. There are multiple such places that I remember seeing somewhere but now that I have the upgrades required, I don't know where they were.

This also means, it's not always clear where to go next.

Another thing is that doors require different weapons to open, it makes sense for the first time, but you need to that everytime, so when going back and forth, you often have to keep changing your weapons to open door, then change it to fight the enemies, then change it again to open the next door. It's not a big deal, but still a minor complaint.

That aside, I am enjoying the game, the visuals, sound and gameplay itself is good. I have gotten all visors and weapons (got the last one just a little while ago), there are probably still some other stuff left to get.

I hope they release Prime 2 and 3 remastered too. Would love to play the whole trilogy before Prime 4 drops.


So, what about all you? What have you been playing?

I’m usually playing a Zelda game since they’ve stacked up. Jumping back in Age of Calamity now that I finished Echoes of Wisdom. Hopefully I finish it before the next Zelda game comes out.

I played most of Age of Calamity, but never finished them. It was my first warriors game and really enjoyed it.

The endless button mash games are not my favorite, but I want to play all Zelda games. I had trouble getting through the first warriors game and for sure did not bother unlocking all the extra characters.

I can understand that, just make sure you don't get burn out.
