Also playing TotK. I have friends who have "finished" the game, or early on were telling me they already had the master sword. I'm just ADHDing my way across the map, and haven't really accomplished too much. Great game!

Same, and honestly everytime I ignore all the stuff to just get somewhere or do something specific, the game is so much worse.
It always takes me hours to get anywhere but the journey is mostly filled with fun and silly advetures.

The only thing that kinda sucks is how long it takes to get more battery charges. I want to build and use all the fun stuff before im finished with everything else -.-

I've got like 150 hours total and literally just beat my second temple tonight... but I've got 5 batteries and it's dope totally worth grinding the depths, grinding is a poor word more like exploring and having a blast.

I've just been running back and forth across the land. I think I've made about 1 hour of progress in like 30.

I have like 3 or 4 of the little batteries, and honestly, I'm not sure how I even got them.

I was just chatting with a friend about this, I really don't build stuff, unless I need to. Hell, I don't think I've even gotten on a horse yet, and I have all the sky towers done already, and have been over most of the map (except underground).

I'm like the dog from the movie Up. Squirrel!!!

The quest line that leads to the master sword actually drives a significant amount of map exploration and story exposition. It's very satisfying to take on early-game, IMO.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

I've been all over the map, and have all the sky towers completed, I just haven't even heard mention of the master sword yet. I just play the game very by the seat of my pants style.

I typically get distracted by a side quest. Start that. Get distracted by something else. Start that. Get distracted by something else. Rinse. Repeat.

Totk when I'm not busy getting furious at mario kart!!!

I'm still playing Tears of the Kingdom as well. I held on to v1.1.1 for quite some time and duped the dragon parts since they're time consuming to farm. Now that I've let it update, I'm gonna take it a bit slower with TotK. I've wanted to play other switch games for a while.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

Still playing Animal Crossing with my morning coffee, then TOTK if I have a chunk of time to play, Cassette Beasts if I just have a little time to kill.

I recently popped Captain Toad into my Switch and realised I did one level and never came back to it, so I’ve been playing through that in bits every now and then.

My wife is playing Tears of the Kingdom, and I'm replaying Skyward Sword on Hard Mode and Ocarina of Time. Really, I've been playing all of the Zelda games available, and really hoping for an announcement about Wind Waker.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

Just beat Ghost of Tsushima last night, finally, absolutely amazing game of course. Took me about 2 years. Now onto Tears of The Kingdom!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

Likely more totk. 'Cause it's so damn good.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

Zelda TikTok, Fire Emblem Engage and maybe a check on my AC Island

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

Tears of the Kingdom as well, I’m loving this game. I already played BotW twice, but TOTK keeps surprising me in lots of ways.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

I actually just took a break from playing anything and I'm catching up on some shows. The TotK bug hit me hard for a month straight.

I think in a few days I'll be back to try more Zonai device ideas though. My arsenal of cartoon military vehicles can always get bigger lol

Pokemon Legends Arceus (for the billionth time) and possibly Etrian Odyssey III (which I've never actually played).

Am I the only one who just didn't get excited about TOTK?

I wanted to be excited for it. The artwork is beautiful, but watching the early stages of a play-through just left me feeling less invested than I would have expected.

I'm sure I'll play it eventually, and just because I've said all this, I will find that I love it.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

I just started BOTW. I have twin newborns and having something that I can pick up for short amounts of time between feeds and changes is fantastic.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Gonna be mostly playing Fall Guys with with the missus.

Had a bunch of game progresses paused. I was around 60-ish hours in BotW but needed a break. Trying to find my next long play.

Also did started playing a bit of Atelier Ryza 1 and Persona 5 Royal just as a taste test and see which one could hook me on the weekends. Didn’t have too much time though to have longer sessions.

There’s also a sale going on and thought maybe I needed some short burst games to play during the weekdays to wind down if I couldn’t commit to longer play session.

Thinking about getting Into the Breach, Hades, and Dicey Dungeons.

Also, Dark Souls on sale. Always wanted to play that.

I think I’m gonna go join the /m/patientgamers as well. Hahah

Patient gaming is a blessing. We have 30 years of amazing games available to us, all at once. Many games, despite old, are still fantastic.
Definitely recommend Dark Souls, I love it. Already played a ton of it in the past, considering getting it again on the Switch for myself. But I just had to order new analog sticks so that might have to wait.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

Alright I'm sold! Adding Dark Souls to my cart. Did some searching around and performance doesn't seem to be too bad on the switch.

I was hoping Xenoblade chronicles (1) was going to go on sale and judging from its history on dekudeals it should go on sale around about now. Anyways, got until the 25th on June before the sales end for most of them.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

I can definitely recommend into the breach and dicey dungeons. Note that both (can) take a long time to really 'finish'.
