Hello Everyone!

Another week without me playing too much.

  • Playing and enjoying New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe. The game is super fun, but can be a bit tough sometimes, or maybe I am just not good at platformers. I am at 2nd boss, would try to clear it and the 3rd area.
  • Finished Carto, loved the game. Some of the puzzles require you to think a bit, and there's one puzzle near the end that I couldn't figure out. Saw a YouTube video, and cleared the puzzle, but still can't figure out the logic behind it. Other than that, there are some secrets that I didn't get, I may go for them, not sure yet.
  • Back to Monster Hunter: World, cleared couple of missions. Going to keep at it.

Now that I have finished Carto, going to start another smaller game, not sure which one yet, have a few lined up, will go through my list and decide.

What about you guys? What have you been playing? And what are you planning to play over the weekend?

Still on Trails into Reverie.

Long game is long, but I got some good progress this week. Reached the final chaper, did the whole intial section and I’m now free to explore Crossbell while preparing for what I assume is the final dungeon.

However, there’s a ton of extra content that I want to clear before moving on, so I’m now rotating between:

  • ~~Going to all locations marked as “NEW” on Crossbell for the extra bosses/events~~ Done!
  • ~~Doing runs of Stratum 4 of the Reverie Corridor to unlock the missing Daydreams/Minigames/Bonus Characters~~ Done!
  • ~~Playing the remaining Daydreams~~ Done!
  • Playing minigames - Pom Pom Party is addictive, but besides that there’s some minigames that include additional story bits like the one about the Tyrfing S

But I think I’ll finally be able to beat the game during this next week. Which would be good because I got two VNs coming from Play-Asia and looking at the tracking information they should arrive soon.

Edit: Also just found out there's a free book for this game with the backstories of two of the new characters. It's available in-game and also on the official website. I just finished converting so I can read this on the Kindle, which honestly sounds like it was worth the effort since it turned out to be even longer than I expected, almost 100 pages!

Nice. Seems like you are progressing well. Combination of playing a long game and then few small games goes really well together. That's why after finishing TotK I am playing a few smaller games, before going back to Dragon Quest 11.

That book sounds interesting, with a game with such a deep lore, its nice to have a nice companion book giving some behind the scenes stories.
