Sorta weened off of Dave the Diver but started it back up again. What’s great is that they keep introducing new mechanics that (no pun intended) hook me in again. I previously spent a ton of time (pre-Klaus fight) in the fishing + sushi bar loop, but now that I’ve continued the story, more interesting things are being introduced. Also, Klaus was a weird spike in difficulty—you go from the easy Giant Squid fight into the Klaus fight thinking it’s gonna be similar and BAM! you get a spike in difficulty.
Also planning on trying to get into Planet Coaster if I have time. It’s been in my Steam library FOR YEARS but I haven’t mustered up the energy to learn it. I tried once but was turned off by the fact that you can’t make large plaza areas, only single pathways. But I found a YouTube tutorial that seems to have a workaround for this. LASTLY, I might boot up Civ 6, but I’m afraid of re-learning it’s mechanics again.
ESO, picked it up because it was free and I have some friends who play it. The difficulty spike from literally anywhere else in the world and the imperial city is nuts, kind of wish every zone was this tough. I could do without the PvP though, I got floored pretty much any time another player showed up. Worth it for those extra skill points though.
I’ve been hitting the Switch Online emus pretty hard lately. Namely Gameboy/Link’s Awakening. Then I was looking through old games I haven’t played in forever and got hooked on Super Monkey Ball banana blitz! And Minecraft is always in the rotation too
pikmin 4! so excited to finally have my hands on a new pikmin game. the game is very streamlined and a lot of the minor annoyances of the older games have been eliminated by one design choice or another, and it is just really easy to sit down and play.
would recommend for new players and fans of the series.
Without any major spoilers how would you say it compares to pikmin 1/2? Pikmin 3 was okay but imo 2 was the best, and 1 suffers a lot from poor quality of life. Ive played every game so far around release and Im tempted to get 4 on my next paycheck. Is it more like the caves and exploration of 2 or the slightly more linear gameplay of 3?
its different from the other ones, mostly in terms of ui and game feel, but it plays the most like 3. the caves are great so far (if a little short, but there is still plenty more for me to do), overall its just been lots of fun but i do wish it was a little harder. The big areas are super cool, and the design improvements allow you to just go diving into any caves or dandori battles you find in your travels without having to worry about where are my pikmin, do i have everyone, do i have the right types, etc.
I’ve been revisiting Kenshi again so I can form my own colony, grow it, stave off bandits, cannibalize through bandits’ properties, assign my bug-man on stealth missions (steal blueprints off the Great Library), go on another stealth mission that will make the Tech Hunters salivate, while I plot my future in destabilizing the great cult and the nation of slavery using one bug-man.
