With all the Switch 2 hoopla, I forgot about the weekly thread.

This was also a busy week, as predicted, so didn’t get to do any gaming at all. Things should be getting back to normal though.

Plan to play Dragon Age: The Veilguard over the weekend, and then continue Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition from Monday.

What about all of you? What have you been playing and/or plan to play?

    Finished Tevi!

    Another excellent metroidvania.

    It’s a on the easier side compared to others I’ve played recently (Ender Magnolia and Rabi-Ribi), so if you want a challenge you should play it on hard, but other than that the only thing I have to complain is some occasional slowdowns on hectic moments, but they weren’t too bad and didn’t that hurt my enjoyment of the game.

    And it looks like there’s some Story DLC being developed for this, so I’ll probably pick it up again in the future.


    Playing Xenoblade X!

    This is slightly improved port of a 10 year old WiiU game and it still looks fantastic. And I had forgotten how massive this world is until I spent close to 2h just exploring the city. 😆

    Still fairly early in the story (Chapter 3), but I spent quite a bit of time going around the region near the city adding probes for FrontierNav and completing some quests. Will move on with the story now since I want to unlock more characters and better gear.

      Wow, did not expect someone to shout-out Tevi! That and Rabi are great (although Tevi isn’t nearly as hard lol)

        Played Rabi-Ribi earlier this year and it was an incredibly pleasant surprise, so much that it got me to look into other games from the same developer.

        After finishing Tevi I’m definitely recommending both, though I prefer Rabi-Ribi for its more unique aspects (extreme non-linearity, crazy amount of bosses and higher challenge).

        although Tevi isn’t nearly as hard lol

        I’m still trying to beat Rabi-Ribi’s post game. 😆

      Yeah, the city is really huge. I started Chapter 3 and went to explore the city, still haven’t completely explored it.
