My Dual Sense (PS5 controller) got drift again, so no Monster Hunter this week.
- Half-way through Soda Jungle in New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe (one good thing about Super Mario Wonder, is it’s smaller name)
- Didn’t play much Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney, want to fix that this week.
- Not much to say about Dragon Quest XI, it’s trudging along.
- Started Deathloop as it’s leaving PS+ Extra, but couldn’t get into it, so dropped it.
- After Deathloop, I wanted to play some kind of shooting game, so stared Remnant: From the Ashes. Loving the game, it’s not as hard souls-like, but it’s still a tough game, I guess more of a souls-lite. Loving the game, and that’s taking most of my time now.
What about you guys? What have you been playing?
Playing Zelda Tears of the Kingdom. It’s sad, though. I’ve noticed my urge to play the game slowly drop more and more once I realized how much of the map, weapons, and music is borrowed from BotW. Sometimes, it feels like I’m just playing BotW 2.0 instead of a proper sequel. Still, I keep making progress.
Replaying Paper Mario TTYD. I really love this RPG and the Paper Mario series as a whole. Really hope we get a proper RPG for the next game in the series, with partners, badges and all that stuff.
I’m also replaying Mirror’s Edge. One of my favorite games, thanks to the setting and soundtrack. It still looks beautiful, despite it coming out in 2008.
Thankfully I have very short memory, and I played BOTW on launch, so didn’t had any issue with that. Maybe you should take a break, and come back to it later?
Well, whatever new Paper Mario we get, it will be on Switch 2. Let’s see what they do that with it.
Mirror’s Edged is that parkour game, right? Where you are running around on rooftops?
I replayed BotW just before TotK came out, and it really just felt like I was rehashing the same stuff. Playing them back to back definitely took away from how much I might have enjoyed the game.
I only played BotW back in 2021, so that’s why I remember so much haha. I guess a break wouldn’t hurt.
Yeah, Mirror’s Edge is that first person parkour game. If you haven’t played it yet, I definitely recommend giving it a shot. I love how the levels flow, and I find myself getting a lot better every time I run through the game.
I have always wanted to play Mirror’s Edge, but for some reason never got around to it. Will see if it I can find it somewhere cheap.
I agree. I played the heck out of it and really got my money’s worth, but much of that time spent playing I couldn’t help but feel it would have been better if
A) I hadn’t played BotW
B) I had skipped most of the side questing (except for the sky which was the best parts of the game imo) and just powered through the main story beats.
I felt like I had done all the sky content in my first 1/4 of the game except for the [Spoiler Area] which was a real shame.
