Hello Everyone!

Didn’t get to play much this week. And haven’t really started anything new.

  • Played a few levels of New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe, not much though, still on the same water world.
  • Played Dragon Quest XI for couple of hours, going to continue playing that.
  • Reached High Rank in Monster Hunter: World but now I am stuck at Pink Rathian, maybe I need to improve my equipment, or maybe I should cave and fire that SOS flare.
  • Playing a bit of Brotato before sleep, if I am not tired. Finally cleared it once, now trying other characters and weapon combinations. A combination of guns has been working out great for me though. All guns, all different type, and focusing on increasing ranged attack.

That’s all from me, what about you guys? What have you been playing?

Been a busy week, haven’t been playing a ton. Picking up a little Overcooked 2 here or there, I always loved that game but couldn’t find friends to play it with. Apparently none of them like it nearly as much as I do, so I’ve just been playing it solo. Still a fun game though!

How are you enjoying it solo, I have heard it becomes quite hectic when playing alone?

Yeah it’s a bit much one the more difficult levels. You have two chefs to control, and you switch between them (using L I believe? Hard to say without just playing lol). So if you multi task well, you can set a chef up with some stuff and start chopping, then switch to the other to focus on other tasks

Yeah, that doesn’t sound easy. 😀

Good luck!

Finishing off Xenoblade Chronicles 3’s post-game content before moving on to Future Redeemed. I’ve enjoyed the heck out of it, though I am basically ready to be done, so… that lined up pretty nicely, actually.

Oh, I had completely forgotten about Future Redeemed! I was planning to play it after TotK, but then completely forgot it’s existence. Going to get it soon.

I’m currently playing through Super Mario World and having a blast - it’s been decades since I played it.
I’ve been fancying trying my hand at kaizo so thought it would be best to play through the base game first.

Super Mario World is fun, but I can’t even dream of playing kaizo. Would love to hear how that goes. Good luck!

Honestly, I’m probably gonna crack away at some more Triangle Strategy. Crazy underrated.

I loved that game! Not many games make me want to playthrough all the stories but this this one’s writing was so delightful.

The game looks great. I have heard that there is lots of talking, and few maps which you keep playing on. What do you think about that?

I’m working through my first playthrough of Stray. Last save I was just about to leave the Slums for what I understand to be the final time. Going for 100% and so far don’t think I’ve missed anything.

Not exactly video games, but I’ve also been doing puzzles lately - just completed my 4th in like a week. They were 300, 300, 1000, and 1000 pieces - but the last one only had 999 pieces present 🙁 Gonna try to make the missing piece myself before I return them to the library.

After Stray I might start on New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe too. Wanna get through it before Wonder comes out.

Edit: lol just realized this is the Nintendo community and not general gaming. Oh well, at least I fit NSMBUD in there

@zkfcfbzr Hardest puzzle I ever did was the White Mountain Lucky Charms 500 piece puzzle. The box art of the puzzle washes over the sides, top and bottom, so you can’t get a clear picture, and there’s only like 5 lucky charms shapes and colors that repeat over and over again.

The last of the puzzles I just did was a Wasgij - which always does tricky things with the box art. For this one you’re shown a scene on the front of the box, then the actual puzzle is what someone in that scene would see from their perspective - so most of the puzzle isn’t actually shown, and the things that are shown are in the wrong perspective. It was interesting to do since my puzzle strategy usually relies heavily on comparing pieces to the box.

Just learned about Wasgij from you. And same question as I asked above. How do you even solve that? Isn’t jigsaw all about seeing the picture and then matching the piece with the picture on board and so on.

Okay, looked up Wagij, they look awesome. I want to try a few.

This sounds like a nightmare. Same charms, repeating over and over, in a jigsaw puzzle. How do you even make that?

Loved Stray, it’s a really fun game. Good luck with 100%!

I love jigsaw puzzles, the last one I got from some random shop, and I think it wasn’t original, or maybe just faulty, as the colours on the pieces didn’t exactly match the box. And all the different shades of dark gray were simple black. I just gave up on it. I want to try some nice ones.

As for Mario, yeah, I started it for the same reason. Wanted to finish it before Wonder comes out.
