What are you playing this weekend? 2023-10-09 (self.nintendo)

I know, weekend is already over, and I am again 2 days late, but just busy with lots of non-gaming stuff these days.

I am playing Storyteller. The game is available on Switch and was on wish list, but I am playing it on my tablet, as a "free" game with Netflix subscription. The game is an interesting puzzle, where you use given scenes and characters to create the titled story. The controls are great for touch screen, and it's really fun.

I have so many games started, which started giving me a bit of anxiety, so I did the only thing I could do, pause them all and start something new. So, I've now started Demon's Souls. I've played a bit of it on PS3, about a decade or so ago, maybe that's why the game feels a bit easier than I remember. Probably going to take time with it, and then one by one finish the previously started game... I hope.

That's all about me, what about all of you? What have you been playing?

Still playing Baten Kaitos. Still having Baten Kaitos run in the background when I'm not playing it to grind out time.

I recently beat Assassin's Creed and started continuing my journey through gaming history I missed out on with Beyond Good and Evil. I'm only three hours in but I can already clearly see why this game is still such a fan favorite. This is a level of charming I haven't seen since Banjo-Kazooie!

How many days remaining now? 1 week done?

Beyond Good and Evil is an interesting game, but I played it when it was quite old, and I wasn't old enough to appreciate older games. I enjoyed it, just didn't think it was out of the world.

My in-game time is ~115 hours now. It's more difficult because the Switch goes into Sleep-Mode and stops the timer and after a while, the battery starts draining while in the dock, so I try not to overdo it for the console's sake.

Why does battery drain while in the dock? I am pretty sure it doesn't, but it could be that I never noticed. There was a time when I only played docked, and I recall it was always 100%.

I never noticed anything being wrong either. I don't think the idling would be related, but that's the only thing that's different now. And it stays on 100% for a few hours before doing it regardless.

[–] slimerancher 1 points 1 year ago

Hmm... maybe you should get it checked sometime? Though, if it only does that after a few hours, maybe it's some kind of power management, coupled with idling or something...
