Currently loving Cassette Beasts; a great new take on the Pokémon-like with an intriguing story. Still has some performance issues but the recent patch helped a lot and it’s got me hooked in that “I’ll do just one more thing real quick” mentality.

Oh, I came across Cassette Beasts recently, and added it to my "keep an eye on" list. It looked pretty interesting, glad to know it's good when playing too.
Hope they release more patches to fix the remaining issues.
I finished Yoshi's Crafted World, finally after like 3 years of owning it. So now I've decided "welp I guess it's time to play Breath of the Wild". Enjoying it so far, I do need to get to Kirby tho... which I was planning on doing once I finished Luigi's Mansion 3, Paper Mario and Yoshi's Crafted World, oh well.
In non-Nintendo stuff, I've been playing Fallout 4 on PC because I've gotten that itch. I've only ever played in PS4, I think I got it on PC when it went on sale. It's really weird playing it with a mouse and keyboard, but it's a lot of fun building a new character and trying to figure out their personality... she feels like very sarcastic and mean but will soften up when you get to know her.
I've been playing a ton of Diablo 4, but definitely want to find some time to hop back into Hyrule and complete some side quests in TotK. I also want to play through Kirby's Tilt 'n' Tumble on NSO; I never managed to pick it up when it was new on GBC, so I'm stoked that I finally get to play a game that has eluded me for so long!
There's also a NSO mission to play Kirby's Tilt 'n' Tumble this week. For 30 coins. I usually don't care about these coins, but they are useful int buying those avatars.
Which class are you playing in Diablo 4, and how are you liking it?
Octopath Traveler 2! Just starting
I still really want to pick that one up! I've been saving the demo for when I feel like I have enough time to really sink my teeth into it so I can get a jump on the story. Maybe next time it goes on sale if I feel like I've finished enough side quests in Zelda.
Did you play the first? It was awesome!
I'm on my billionth play through of Legends Arceus, but I may give Etrian Odyssey three a try!
I guess there is no point in asking if you liked Legends Arceus, but how do you compare it with Scarlet and Violet?
Also, why Etrian Odyssey three? Why not 1 and 2?
Haha!
So, I love Scarlet and Violet as well, for different reasons. PLA was an excellent story. It felt very complete in terms of what it was. Meanwhile, I'm basically foaming at the mouth over the DLC for S/V. One feels like watching a really good movie and the other feels like watching a really great series, if that makes sense?
As for EO3. It's purely by happenstance. My husband was playing it and I decided to pick it up. :)
Heh, good for you!
I have only played Let's Go Pikachu, and then Sword/Shield. While I enjoyed them both, it didn't make me excited to try PLA or S/V, so skipped them both. I may give the next one they release, a try, but not sure yet. Will decide when they announce it.
I'd be playing Zelda: TotK but my wife currently has occupied the lazyboy almost every night for the past month. Thank goodness for Diablo and SF6...
Cannot afford it until I get paid at the end of the month, but I'm so thrilled about the Etrian Oddysey re-release. Usually I'm not big on re-release, but these games hold a special importance for me as my first dungeon crawlers. If only Nintendo priced things more accessibly. 😔
After a few months of moving about between hotels, I finally got everything all set up a my new place, so I've been enjoying some splatoon 3 again, along with legends arceus.
Congratulation on the new place!
How are you finding Legends Arceus? I am taking a break from Pokemon games, but I have heard it's the best Pokemon game in a long time.
