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’m still immersed in the world of TotK, squeezing in gaming sessions whenever I find a spare moment. Surprisingly, despite investing a considerable amount of time, I’m “only” 40 hours into the game.

Haha, I had an opposite experience. I thought I am not playing it at all, might be 20-30 hours at most, then checked and was at 50 hours. The game feels immersive so don’t even realize how much time I have put into it.

Since I finished TotK last week (got 100 hours out of the game), I decided to take a break from it for a while and instead focus on my switch backlog.

I’m about to finish a game called In Other Waters. What I initially thought would be just a chill exploration game became a really immersive narrative experience with turn of events which really caught me off guard. I’m definitely interested in more games from the developer, I heard great things about their subsequent game Citizen Sleeper.

Other than that, I started playing Blaster Master Zero 2. I played the first one last year and really enjoyed my time with it, and the sequel so far seems to be as good as the first one.

Outside of Nintendo ecosystem, I’ll also probably boot up PS5 for a few hours and try to get more trophies out of Unravel 2.

Congratulations on finishing the game!

You already got me interested in “In Other Waters”, now you are getting me even more excited. Going to move it up on my to-play list.

How are you playing Unravel 2? Single player or co-op?

I’m playing Unravel 2 solo, I could not convince my SO to play with me. It does work surprisingly well as a single player game though.

Unsighted! I saw it on the hidden gems section of the e-shop yesterday.

I’m waiting until my wife beats BotW before diving into TotK

Just checked out Unsighted, looks pretty good, went to add it to my wishlist and it was already there 😀 I don’t even remember when I added it. How are you enjoying it?

If you are playing BOTW too, I would suggest not jumping in TotK right away, it can cause burn out, but if you weren’t playing that should be fine.

I beat BotK, I played that shit endlessly on release.

And unsighted is good! It’s simpler but excellent. It’s worth it

I am keeping up with TotK. Well over 100 hours but I may spend some time in Pokémon Scarlet chasing Gimmighoul and Chesnaught.

How far along are you in TotK?

And good luck with Gimmighoul and Chesnaught!

After 100 hours I’ve completed 2 of the 4 temples and gathered all the memories. Besides that I’ve just been completing shrines and doing some side quests.

Also thanks, I really want a shiny Gimmighoul.

Wow, 100 hours and just 2 temples, you are doing some real exploration.

More TotK for me, with a high level of avoiding the main questline.
