I am having a lot of fun in Hollow Knight! I have so much to do once I get the monarch wings. Also, your theme is pretty cool!

Ha, Deadly Premonition sure is an amusing game, at the very least.

Glad to hear you are doing alright and that is definitely true about getting stuff done around the house. Working at home has its advantages and I've been able to get a lot of stuff done around the house during lunch breaks, like doing laundry, washing dishes, etc.

Agreed 100%. I think you'll like Castlevania. Seasons 1&2 loosely follow Castlevania III (NES) and Season 3 appears to be an original story, but I can't say for sure.

Has Psychonauts been suspended? It’s worth playing all of the way through!

That's a sweet logo you got there.

Wait, you started Bloodstained on Nightmare difficulty? Perhaps that is why there has been no progress in six months.
But seriously, I had a challenging time with that game on just the default normal setting.

I picked Scorbunny for my Shield playthrough and went with Sobble for Sword. I did the same thing and boxed Sobble and have been rotating my team after each gym. I finished Sword yesterday so I'm working on filling out my Pokedex to get the Shiny Charm

Wishiwashi has such a great design, I used one in my Sun playthrough and it was really fun to battle with. Pokemon camp is one of my favourite things that they added this time - it's added so much character and life to all the Pokemon. I've made way too much curry.

I know I really have to find time to sit down and play it more, just from the 20 hours I've put in it's a phenomenal game, but there's just so much stuff in the game to look at and do. I'm probably just going to continue on with regular P5 - missing the little extra bits in Royal isn't going to bother me too much. I went a bit crazy with buying games on Black Friday so it might be best that I don't pick up P5R when it comes out

Hello,

Firstly I'm a massive mecha / aircraft fan so already hold such a bias towards these kind of games, and will put up with a lot of bad just to be apart of the universe of the game. Ace Combat 7 is easily my game of the year for this year but a few caveats with that I suppose. Ace Combat 7 had so to speak development nightmare, and in the story / pacing it does show. That being said, there have been few series that manage to keep every mission an escalation without breaking immersion - meaning the pacing never seems to pump the brakes on your enjoyment. There's such a flattering experience smoking jets out of the air while doing a barrel roll while everyone is bewildered by your flying skills, enemies included. The radio chatter is excellent in both ENG / JPN (though sometimes hard to pay attention to the latter if you're trying to dogfight and read at the same time). It's definitely a power fantasy game, but boy does it deliver. It really brings me back to the better installments of Ace Combat (zero & 5 specifically). Gorgeous game and great environments. Definitely the better of AC games, but I came in with a positive mindset, and its been quite some time since I played an AC game.

Whereas the main game's plot is a bit of a mess in some parts, it raps up relatively alright, everyone is happy in Strangereal. However, where the game shines really is the friggin DLC arc. Now that's good stuff. I wont say anymore but the three missions for the DLC are insanely enjoyable, and really interesting. However the DLC aircraft really make these missions simple (and any missions for that matter ez pz) so up to you on challenging yourself.

Three strikes!

It won't really be a different experience tbh. I love the games so I am definitely playing them all over again but, yeah individually won't be that different. One and 2 will be repetitive I think because you had to grind the weapons in them. Though I am sure they'll add an option to not do that. The ZX games are pretty cool. I'm probably alone in this but ZX has the only last boss and level I've ever had trouble with. Hope you enjoy them. ZX series is underrated imo

Thank you! I'm in love with Wooloo's design, it's so cute

I'm really enjoying the switch games - yes, they are really different to the DS games, there are a lot of new quality of life features that Gamefreak added from the 3DS generation onward especially for breeding and competitive battling. I spent a lot of time in XY/ORAS breeding and hunting for shinnies because the odds were just so much better, I'm hoping shiny hunting in the switch games will be just as good

I'm sorry I managed to get through the game so fast, I kinda' binged played it on the weekend and before I knew it I beat the champion My copy of Sword actually arrived today so I'll be starting again, now I can give my brother back his copy of Pokemon Shield.

Which starter did you pick? They all looked so good this time around

Death Stranding is more of an experience than a traditional game. The world really isn’t “open,” per se, but you have a choice as to how to tackle missions by determining the best way to navigate the terrain each mission.

The game *is* overwhelming. But this is due to the strange balancing mechanics, taking care of your BB, and watching for enemies.

I cannot comment on the game’s length, but it seems like it is quite long. Nonetheless, the game is doing a good job at keeping my attention and I am interested in seeing where the story is headed.

After beating the game, I can say it's one of the best games I beat this year. It's a all around great game! Though maybe I'm not the best person to talk about this sort of game since I don't really play many Beat-Em-Ups... I should probably change that.

Ty my man But yeah, work and general bs irl just kinda keep me busy and tired nowadays, so I just really haven't been playing. I just boot up FGO and get my login bonus and play what events are up
