A bit later than usual, but I wanted to give some space after the Direct news.
Finished Diablo IV, it was an interesting story, the cinematics were amazing, like always. Had fun playing it.
Would love to go back to it sometime in future and play with other classes.
So, I did something stupid. I started an MMORPG, when I don't even have time for normal games.
Started Final Fantasy XIV. It's just a trial version for now, wanted to give it a test but I got hooked, and didn't want to play anything else.
Wanted to finish DK: Bananza, but when I started it, I just wanted to rush through it so that I could get back to FF XIV, so I have temporarily put pause on all games and just playing that.
It's a VERY long game, so I don't think I'll be able to keep that pace, most probably will get back to playing other games this week or next by the max, but let's see.
I am currently at the place where you are done with your initial quests and get access to other cities. I have also done a few multiplayer dungeons, it's not as much of an issue as I thought it would be. Though being on console, it's difficult to reply to others when they message, should try to attach keyboard / mouse for those times.
I have also unlocked all the possible classes that can be unlocked until this point, which is all of the crafting and gathering ones (Disciple of Hand and Disciple of Land) plus some combat and magic ones (Disciple of War and Disciple of Magic), but I am focusing on only my main one, which is a Tank. Just got them unlocked in case I am bored some time and want to try something else.
What about all of you? What have you been playing and/or plan to play?
I finished Bananza for good. The only things not 100% completed are the music disks, because that's just grinding, and the stats page because I'm not insane. And then they released the DLC an hour later! But like I said in the other thread, I'm not going to get it. The roguelike gameplay is just not something I'm interested in. But finally, huge shoutout to the Credits Theme! I cried when that part happened!
So today is finally the day I'll pull the trigger on Xenoblade X. I remember my final verdict on the game on the Wii U was something along the lines of "The first 50 hours were some of the best I've ever experienced in a video game, followed by 100 hours of chores". However, since Xenoblades 2 and 3 went into a direction I was less fond of, I think I'll be able to appreciate X more than before. I've been meaning to play it again for a few years, but I had faith in a Switch remaster and waited.
The Witness is longer than I expected. I'm probably almost done now but I've seen enough inaccessible passages to know there's more than meets the eye underground.
And a little more of Yakuza 3. Just a bit.
Yeah, while the Skull Island part seems interesting, but I am not interested in the roguelike gameplay either.
I actually skipped the credits... did I miss out on something? 😟
I didn't like Xenoblade X as much as 1, 2, 3, but since you didn't like how 2 and 3 went, you may enjoy X more.
You missed the song?! Well, the moment has passed, but you can get a fraction of what people experienced from here:

Yeah, I had no idea about the song, and I habitually skip credits whenever possible.
I can imagine the impact it would have at that moment.
