Hello Everyone!

Another week without me playing too much.

  • Playing and enjoying New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe. The game is super fun, but can be a bit tough sometimes, or maybe I am just not good at platformers. I am at 2nd boss, would try to clear it and the 3rd area.
  • Finished Carto, loved the game. Some of the puzzles require you to think a bit, and there's one puzzle near the end that I couldn't figure out. Saw a YouTube video, and cleared the puzzle, but still can't figure out the logic behind it. Other than that, there are some secrets that I didn't get, I may go for them, not sure yet.
  • Back to Monster Hunter: World, cleared couple of missions. Going to keep at it.

Now that I have finished Carto, going to start another smaller game, not sure which one yet, have a few lined up, will go through my list and decide.

What about you guys? What have you been playing? And what are you planning to play over the weekend?

Pikmin 4. Had to get it after playing the demo. Fun and relaxing and very well suited for quick sessions.. then I saw Octopath Traveller 2 was on sale and now I’m 10 hours deep into that..

Ah, didn't know Octopath Traveller 2 was on sale, maybe that's why so many people are playing it this week. How are you enjoying it?

I’m liking it overall. The story being 8 separate ones, one for each character, makes it so they are somewhat limited in their depth. It could also do with some QoL stuff compared to like Bravely Default 2 (what’s up with those weird jrpg titles?).. auto-battles would’ve been much appreciated with how grind-y it gets. The atmosphere and graphics are great though. It’s like how I remember rpg’s from the 90s to be

Haha, JRPG titles are often like that.

Glad you are enjoying it.
