Hello Everyone!

It's time for this week's, "What are you playing" thread.

I wasn't able to give as much time to gaming as I thought, who knew running a community can take so much time. Even when all members are so great, and I don't have to moderate anything.

I am still playing The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, mainly focusing on side quests and exploration right now. With so much to explore, this is going to take a long time.

Other than that, me and wife just got NSO Expansion pass, and started the Happy Home Paradise DLC, while resuming our Animal Crossing play-through. Just cleaning the long neglected island, and helping Harv build the shops.

What about all of you? What are you playing?

Oh yeah TLOZ:TOTK is my go to right now. I'm at the point where I can battle Mr demon king but been side questing and all that jazz now first. I wanna go in and just obliterate him, so I'm focusing on getting the rest of the shrines etc beforehand and collecting better armour blah blah blah

I hope the final fight is better than BOTW. Calamity Gannon was kind of anti-climatic boss. Fighting a group of Guardians was tougher than Gannon. 😀

Good luck clearing the game.

Disclaimer I also haven't fought the final boss.

I wouldn't count on the Demon King being a terrible difficult fight. You have to remember that it's a storyline quest, so it has to be achievable by the least common denominator. If you really want a challenge, you should explore the depths under the southwest region of Hyrule Field ;)

You are right, it makes sense.

I actually don't want a very tough fight either, I remember some older games where I wouldn't have any trouble through out the game and then I would get stuck at the final boss. But they have conditioned me to not feel the game has ended until I go through a tough final boss.

I actually did explored those area, but I was mostly running away from things 😀
