What are you playing this weekend? 6/9 (self.nintendo)

Hello Everyone!

Let's start a first ever, "What are you playing this weekend?".

I am still completely enthralled by The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. I am about 50-60 hours in, and still have lots of explore. I don't want to mention anything that might be a spoiler, but I think I should be around 60% done with the story. I am on media blackout about the game, so I don't actually know how long it actually it is, but this is what it seems like. Of course, if I go by total amount of Shrines, or Koroks, I am probably just 10-20% of the total.

All my other games are on pause, probably not going to resume anything else until I have finished Zelda.

What about all of you? What are you playing?

I fell for star citizens promise, there's some cool shit in there, but after spending more time it feels more like a shallow kids pool, but I'll still be jumping back on

I don't even know what's going with Star Citizen anymore. Are they still developing it? I thought it was abandoned.

Far from abandoned. The other day I was doing a delivery mission and the moon's wind knocked me over as I landed and left my ship. My cargo happened to be round so I watched it hit the landing pad and start rolling away from me.

They call it "physicalized" when something has physics and works like you expect. This goes a long way towards making piracy feel authentic. If you take out a mining ship you have to steal their ore and have some way to go out into space, tractor beam all the stuff into your own ship, and go off and sell it.

It's very emergent, but basically all you can do is take stuff, fight, and sell stuff.

Sounds interesting. Hope they complete it one day soon.
