Hello Everyone!

Time for another update on our gaming progress!

I am still playing The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingom. About 65 hours in. Small non-spoiler update next, those who want to avoid it can move to next paragraph. I am going for the last regional quest, and have found 60+ shrines. As for exploration, have done about 1/4th of Depths and Sky Islands, and activated all Sky towers, though there's still a lot to find.

I mentioned resuming Animal Crossing, but it didn't went far. My wife is completely back into it, but I haven't played it much, whenever I am on Switch I just want to play Zelda.

In non-Nintendo world, just downloaded Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder's Revenge, going to start playing it with my kid. Going to be our first beat 'em up together, if I am not forgetting any.

Other than that, also planning to give Monster Hunter: World another try, this time with a group of friends.

That's all from me. What are you all up to? What are you playing?

I've paused ToTK for a week or so (35 hours in, only 1 regional questo done lmao) but I may resume this weekend. I need to catch up or I'll never finish that game at this rate, wish I had more time...

Other than that, eventually I want to give MH: Rise another try. Bought it on switch when it came out, played it for a week then dropped.

Just like last week, minesweeper for me. Great classic.

[–] slimerancher@lemmy.world 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Minesweeper is a pretty good game. Which one are you playing? The one included with Windows? Or some other version?

[–] Ippei@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

If Microsoft started releasing DLC for Minesweeper they'd make more money than the Acti-Bliz acquisition will ever make them.

Still playing Tears of The Kingdom myself, 225 hours in I have one last temple and a few side quests here and there so I'm almost done with it and I have no idea what I'll be doing next lol.

I went back and restarted Metroid Prime Remastered. Such an incredible game, and it's so much fun going through it a second time now that I'm more familiar with the game. I'm navigating much more confidently and creatively. Such a good title

I'm still mostly playing TOTK. I completed the main story earlier this week, and normally that would kind of trigger a switch in my brain to lose all interest in side quests, but somehow it's managed to keep me interested.

The direct reminded me that I have barely started Mario + Rabbids Kindgom Battle, so been playing that a bit too.

Then to wind down I've been getting closer and closer to completing the all the normal Picross puzzles in Picross S2

I'm also still on tears of the kingdom. My current goal is to finally do the airways to get the faeries to open up so i can upgrade my armor. Don't have so much free time these days, so I expect that to last me until super Mario wonder comes out.

[–] slimerancher@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Hope you have been hoarding stuff to upgrade the armour. They need wide variety of stuff to upgrade.

Enjoy your time with it, it's rare to get game of this quality, so have fun!

[–] hoodlem@hoodlem.me 1 points 1 year ago

More Pokémon Violet for me. I’ve finished the game but I find raiding relaxing.

[–] Grangle1@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (2 children)

I thought the boss of the seventh Palace would be the final boss of the base game in Persona 5 before getting to the extra content. I was wrong. It took me until last night to actually get to the real final boss of the base game (and I luckily beat it on the first try... The mini-boss gauntlet before it was harder than the boss itself, lol). So only now did I actually start the extra semester in Royal. That said, I ordered Tears of the Kingdom this morning and I'll probably get to that sometime this week or next, finally. Excited to start playing it after seeing so much about how it actually lives up to its hype.

[–] fruity@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Persona 5 turned out to be MUCH longer than I expected, and I expected it to be long. My wife kept laughing at me announcing 'I am going to finish it soon, it's almost the end' and then the end didn't happen. Having said that, I immensely enjoyed it all, great game!

I'm desperately trying to find time for TotK. I tried going to (end the game) and had to leave because I needed materials and meals. I managed to get extremely far in the game but work made progress impossible for the last two weeks...

[–] cities@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

I am still playing Tears of the Kingdom when I have time to play and I don't foresee that changing anytime soon

[–] mekkagodzilla@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

I’m playing Pikmin 1 HD (I couldn't really wait for the physical edition as I had previously stated). I'm having a blast so far, played 6 days and got 10 spaceship pieces.

I remember being terrified of the time constraint in the game (30 days to get 30 pieces) when I first played it 20 years ago, but my experience with Pikmin 3 makes the game really much more manageable and enjoyable now. The Switch version, even if it's a simple HD port with some very minor tweaks, is really enjoyable.

Looking forward to starting Pikmin 2 HD, probably next week.

Borrowed a couple games from a mate to see if I wanna buy them myself. Luigi's Mansion 3 is a no, but will be buying Mario 3D + Browser's Fury after payday. Also, usually fit in some time on Dorfromantik in the evenings or when stressed.

[–] slimerancher@lemmy.world 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Why did you like Luigi Mansion 3?

Dorfromantik looks fun. Is it as relaxing as it looks?

[–] Sdot@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I just found it very slow. A lot of unskippable cut scenes. Yes! So relaxing.

Patient gamer, I'm still on BotW. Turning over every rock, checking every tree and puddle.

I'm 75% of the way through Advance Wars 2 (from the Advance Wars Reboot-Camp remake). I normally get ~3 levels done per play session, but the last stage of Yellow Comet was more difficult than usual. I'm thinking these last stages are just harder than all the earlier stages.

I might try a hard-mode run, or maybe I start playing competitive (erm... casual-level competitive. I dunno about beating the grandmasters in this game but I kinda wanna see where people are).

[–] slimerancher@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I was very hyped for Advanced Wars, but then they delayed it, and then released it couple of weeks before Zelda, so haven't gotten a chance to play it yet. Glad to see people are enjoying it.

Competitive can be interesting, though I doubt I would be hold off against the pros.

[–] thebutler@lemmy.world 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

i played through 1 on the remake before i started totk, and it was just as fun as i remembered (and not insanely hard like wargroove was for me). very excited to play 2 post-totk

[–] slimerancher@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

That's cool. With so many games, I don't think I would get the chance to play it any time soon. Let's hope this sells enough for Nintendo to make newer games in the series.
